I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiananella città Taormina della Messina

10/04/2026: Expensive, not good, and not recommended!

02/01/2026: My experience was decidedly positive. A la carte New Year's Eve dinner. Unfortunately, it was a rainy evening, which prevented us from enjoying what we had planned. They were helpful and friendly, allowing us to toast the New Year with our own bottles! And not only that... they served lentils and cotechino without asking. A suggestion for all restaurants open on New Year's Eve with an à la carte menu: charge a €20 cover charge per person rather than rightfully inflating the menu. When you add value to good food and customer service, you make a difference. Thank you for everything.

04/09/2025: Nice little place but off the main lane. Coperto is 3E pp so all in all very good prices considering the location. Loved the pizza and free limoncello.

03/09/2025: Spectacular!!!!! Cozy, intimate, great food, wonderful atmosphere, friendly and attentive service, great playlist... Highly recommend.

09/11/2025: We’ve been all around Italy and have never had a bad meal until tonight. Terrible pizza, tasteless crust and toppings. Had the Seabass supposedly encrusted with almonds….. horrible as well. I saw someone at another table barely eat their pizza as well. Don’t go here.

07/11/2025: We had our first lunch of our 2 week Italy trip here. We loved the Margherita and pesto pizzas. My husband also got the gnocchi, which he loved. Cute outdoor spot for lunch, would recommend.

11/04/2026: We had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. At first, the staff were extremely friendly and actively encouraged us to come in, which gave us a good impression. However, things changed completely after we spent around €110 for two people. Even though we were still consuming drinks and had just ordered another round, we were suddenly brought the bill without asking for it and told that they had other reservations. This felt very rude and disrespectful, especially considering that our table was not empty and we were still customers actively spending money. It is unacceptable to rush guests out in this way after encouraging them to dine there in the first place. We did not feel welcome at all in the end, despite having spent a significant amount of money. Very poor treatment and absolutely not the level of service we expected. We will not be returning.

11/04/2026: The experience was horrible, and definitely very disappointing. At the beginning, the staff did everything they could to convince us to come in and dine at the restaurant, which initially left a good impression. However, things changed after we finished eating. While we were still sitting at the table, continuing to enjoy our drinks and even ordering more, the staff suddenly decided to bring us the bill without us asking for it. They explained that other customers were coming and that we needed to free up the table. This was quite surprising and honestly frustrating, especially considering that the total bill for two people was around €110. It didn’t feel appropriate to be rushed out under those circumstances. I travel a lot across Europe, and I have never experienced something like this before. It left a negative impression despite the decent start.

15/10/2025: There's parking, quality products, and fast service. Friendly staff. One of the best places in the area.

05/08/2025: Welcoming and friendly staff. The venue's modern look makes it ideal for after-hours aperitifs. Especially recommended for aperitifs with live music.

09/02/2026: Very good restaurant, with a magnificent view, very fresh ingredients... a slightly excessive price but the view comes at a price too... and you sometimes have to put up with noisy neighbors (Italians).

18/01/2026: Very tasty food, fast service and a beautiful view!

28/12/2025: A place where you feel at home ❤️ wonderful in every way

15/12/2025: Excellent. Everything was delicious! The staff were extremely kind, the service was fast and clean. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the kindness and smiles are hallmarks of an excellent team. Everything was excellent. I was extremely satisfied and plan to return to try many other dishes. I highly recommend it. Kudos to the staff for everything!

21/04/2026: perfect Neapolitan pizza, light dough

21/04/2026: The restaurant has recently been renovated. Everything is new and well-maintained. Excellent dinner.

17/04/2026: Pistachio Ravioli was amazing. Great service and best food prices in Taormina!!

06/04/2026: The only place we found open and still serving food around midnight on Friday. It was full of young locals. :) The service and athmosphere were very friendly and easy. Panini was delicious.

11/11/2025: The restaurant is run by an Italian and a Polish woman (both serving customers). The menu is in Polish. It's tucked away in a quiet area. It's quiet and peaceful. Plenty of tables. The food is delicious, just like in Italy. I highly recommend it.

10/11/2025: The ambiance is wonderful, located in a dreamy area, very close to the Greek Theatre of Taormina, and across from the small Church of San Domenico. The atmosphere is very welcoming; there are always musicians wandering around the restaurants, adding a vibrant touch to the dining experience. I enjoyed the food; I tried three dishes: eggplant parmigiana, pasta with shrimp, and grilled clams. My favorite was the grilled clams.

09/04/2026: Great restaurant. Affordable prices and absolutely lovely taste! We had Calamari alla Siciliana and pizza Gazela, both really scrumptious. Really close to the city centre so it's really worth the walk. The toilets are clean and smell nice.

09/04/2026: Pizza is great, sea food is great, deserts are great!

11/04/2026: We had an amazing time at Kisté. We took the 8 course tasting menu with wine pairing and it was fantastic! Very generous portions, and in particular the bisque, the red shrimp carpaccio, and the veal stood out to us. The staff was very kind and explained the menu, items and wine to us in English, which I’m very grateful about. It felt like a great way to sample many different Sicilian dishes with a unique touch to them.

08/03/2026: Great simple food and great service specially feriel! Grazie

16/03/2026: The restaurant is excellent, the chef's dishes are excellent, and the service is very good. A word of caution: the restrooms require you to go down some unprotected stairs downstairs. Furthermore, the bathrooms aren't up to par with the restaurant.

08/03/2026: We had a tasting dinner and chose the fish option (Menu Mare & Aria). The price was €130 per person, and we were served 6 courses. I’m not really a “fish person”, but the flavors truly surprised and delighted me. At the same time, some of the combinations were quite… interesting 😄 The service was 12 out of 10. I have honestly never experienced service like this before, so it really impressed me. Overall, I would rate the experience 8.5 out of 10. It’s definitely worth trying and enjoying this kind of carefully created luxury 💚 Thank you!

01/03/2026: TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. AVOID AT ALL COSTS We had a serious allergy requirement that was ignored after reminding them on 5 occasions. Was then spoken to EXTRENELY rudely and had no resolution with the OWNER herself. We have reported the incident with police and will be taking matters further!!

01/03/2026: Food was pretty awful….Service not great and staff rude…. Avoid this place!

19/04/2026: Very expensive (€45), but good.

19/04/2026: A quick reflection: I've been frequenting Taormina since I was 14, when, penniless and a little envious, I would spy on the "grown-ups" sitting at the Mokambo café, which wasn't your average bar but a mandatory stop, not for everyone, to start the evening. Playboys and dandies would set the already sultry summer evenings ablaze with their presence, smiles laced with seduction on tanned faces and white suits with unbuttoned shirts. The evenings continued at the "Giara" of the great Cico Scimone and then the Manuli brothers. I watched them—Turi Pollicina, Mimmo Cassaniti, Vito Costa, Carlo Spina, to name a few—and I waited until I grew up to be able to match or surpass them. Love, betrayal, and unscrupulousness passed over those tables, and little by little I managed to secure a table that was always reserved in that whirlwind of emotions called Mokambo. Together with lifelong friends Giovanni Costa, Seby di Giovanni, Alfredo Minissale, Ugo Pollicina, and Guido Costa, we spent decades doing what was natural to us: experiencing the nightlife in all its strangest facets, to the fullest and without limits. Years later, now married and "with my head in the clear," as they say, I found myself in Taormina last Saturday evening with my wife, and after dinner at "cu ti lu dissi," an excellent restaurant in Porta Catania owned by friends Fabio and Francesco, we decided to have a drink at Mokambo. We walked along the Corso, with many shops closed due to the late hour (9:10 PM), and to our great surprise, we found Mokambo CLOSED. Asking around, we were told that closing time was 9:00 PM. 9:00 PM. 9:00 PM. How sad. One of the historic symbols of Taormina's nightlife closed at 9:00 PM. But does the new ownership (Dolce & Gabbana) know that nightlife in Taormina starts after 9 PM? Shame on them!!! The time for weirdness is certainly over for us, but I believe an era that saw us as the protagonists of the last episode is over!!!
