I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiananella città Malfa della Messina

05/07/2025: Food was good. However, I asked the server if we can get two glasses of wine. He did not ask me what kind of wine I wanted and said he will be right back. At the end of the night my bill came and turns out he charged me €98 per glass of wine. We had a total of 2 glasses. My meal alone was €500. The server took advantage of us and that's not right. I will not recommend this restaurant strictly because the server.

25/06/2025: Very negative experience in the bistrot section of the restaurant. The restaurant is split in two sections. Both sections are managed by Michelin star rated Chef. We ordered two glasses of wine, and appetizer, and two meals. The appetizer arrived 30 minutes later and the l bread and wine was not delivered until after. In fact, we had to inquire about the wine and waited for another 10 minutes. Unfortunately, this was not the end of the problems. We waited for another 90 minutes until we had to go and ask about the meal. During the wait time, the waiter never stop by to talk to us. The waiter apologized explaining that they are very busy tonight. This was Tuesday night and the restaurant was 50% empty. The waiter apologize multiple times, but there was no good explanation and every other table was also waiting for the meal for the extended period of time. Eventually, the meal arrived. It tasted good and it was consistent with the bistro style. The prices, however, were very high (not bistrot prices): The average appetizer was €25-€30 and an average main corse was about €38. An average bottle of wine was above €80 including local wines. We paid €148 for one appetizer. Two main courses and 2 glasses of local wine. At this price levels, the service offered was completely unacceptable, shameful, and undeserving. There was absolutely no reason why the bistro section of the restaurant was let down entirely. I can only imagine how people felt if they chose this restaurant for a special occasion. At the table next to us people got tired of waiting and left without their meal. They were clearly very disappointed as well. If you are considering this restaurant for your memorable meal, please look somewhere else. If you are considering to go for the Michelin star section of this restaurant, I would not go there either unless you like this type of service.

27/07/2025: I'm delighted to return to this restaurant in Malfa, on the island of Salina, and it's always a confirmation! This time, I had the pleasure of tasting the truly exceptional scialatielli with red shrimp and pistachios, fragrant and beautifully balanced. The seafood spaghetti was simply perfect: the flavor of the sea in every bite. I was also surprised by the pasta with baked ricotta and chili pepper: creamy, flavorful, with a balanced spicy touch that made it irresistible. A simple yet winning combination, demonstrating the chef's care and passion for local cuisine. I already knew the restaurant for its well-crafted cocktails and creamy gelato, but this experience also truly impressed me from a gastronomic perspective. Considering the high prices in Salina, I can say that this place was a real discovery, especially for the high quality of the ingredients. Highly recommended for those seeking authentic flavors, a warm welcome, and quality. I will definitely be back!

27/07/2025: Torno con piacere in questo locale a Malfa, sull'isola di Salina, e ogni volta è una conferma! Questa volta ho avuto il piacere di gustare degli scialatielli con gamberi rossi e pistacchio davvero eccezionali, profumati e molto equilibrati. Gli spaghetti ai frutti di mare, poi, erano semplicemente perfetti: il sapore del mare in ogni boccone. A sorprendermi è stata anche una pasta con ricotta infornata e peperoncino: cremosa, saporita, con un tocco piccante equilibrato che la rendeva irresistibile. Una combinazione semplice ma vincente, che dimostra la cura e la passione dello chef per la cucina del territorio. Già conoscevo il locale per i cocktail ben fatti e il gelato cremosissimo, ma questa esperienza mi ha davvero colpito anche dal punto di vista gastronomico. Considerando i prezzi alti di Salina, posso dire che questo posto è stata una vera scoperta, in particolare per la qualità altissima delle materie prime. Consigliatissimo per chi cerca sapori autentici, accoglienza e qualità. Ci tornerò sicuramente!
