18/01/2025: Exceptional location!! Too bad it was raining but in summer I think it's beautiful and above all cool!! Excellent food. The guys in the room (Luciano and Giuseppe) were up to the role and very nice. Excellent prices also in relation to the quantity of food served. must try!!!

12/03/2025: To spend a different Saturday evening, I wanted to introduce Letizia to a historic venue located in Villa San Giovanni, which was the scene of carefree evenings in my youth: La Sosta. This venue, by virtue of its short distance from the port (only 5 minutes on foot) allows customers coming from Sicily to leave the car in Messina and use the very frequent ferry connections to reach Villa San Giovanni comfortably and economically. Despite a mix-up with the reservation, we were allowed to drink a couple of beers by sitting at a temporary table, while waiting for the one assigned to us to become free. We started dinner with a mixed fry and croquettes filled with smoked mozzarella. Both Letizia and I continued with an amazing 'Smoked' sandwich: 200g Chianina hamburger, smoked scamorza, mushrooms, speck, home-made potatoes, BBQ sauce. We also ended on a high note, with a Nutella crepe and a Coppa Sosta, both very good. I drank two excellent Gordon Scotches, red Belgian beers on tap. Letizia tried two different blonde beers on tap: a Nastro Azzurro (classic Italian) and a Gordon Gold, a tasty, very alcoholic Belgian one. The courtesy of the staff, the quality of the food and drinks and the particularity of the furnishings, combined with the memories that tied me to La Sosta, gave us a wonderful evening. Highly recommended place, especially in the evenings with live music! Remarkable quality/price ratio.

20/02/2025: Era il mio pub preferito più di 30 anni fa, quando ancora vivevo qui... Dopo tutti questi anni ci sono ritornata ed è stato come un piacevole tuffo nel passato, cibo ottimo accompagnato da altrettanta buona birra e musica. Che dite? Quando ritornerò sarà nuovamente una mia meta

30/03/2025: In this place refined dishes and quality food. The owner is very kind and the quality-price ratio is excellent. The place is also nice and welcoming. We will return.

05/03/2025: Coccolati da una preparata e gentilissima persona che spiega a dovere tutte le preparazioni, gustiamo una serie di antipasti, naturalmente a base di pesce, tutti gradevoli e ben preparati. Anche i secondi piatti ben presentati a base di pesce fresco. Conto appropriato al cibo e al servizio proposto.

03/01/2025: Locale molto accogliente si mangia benissimo dolci fatti in casa babà al bergamotto favoloso e un ottima pizza tagliata di carne buonissima

30/11/2024: Hübsches, authentisches Lokal - sehr zuvorkommender Service und gutes Essen. Wir hatten leider keinen grossen Hunger und assen nur ein Primo. Das war von sehr guter Qualität, wir würden wieder dort essen gehen.

20/10/2024: Loud Italian music to match the city's atmosphere.

12/10/2024: What a cool spot for a smoke and beverage! As I approached the front outside seating entrance I was welcomed by two serving staff. Super friendly and inviting. I got a sat at a comfortable spot for me to enjoy my cigar and drinks.

12/03/2025: Very kind staff... Good stockfish starter.... Very good and I recommend roasted and baked stockfish....

18/02/2025: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *A great discovery!* I've been to *Trattoria al Vecchio Mulino* and I can't help but recommend this place! Typical traditional dishes, tasty and prepared with fresh ingredients. The environment is welcoming and the service excellent. Excellent value for money. I can't wait to go back!

13/03/2025: Maria Teresa very professional and exquisitely kind. We were very satisfied with his recommendations. Already with the appetizers alone we were satisfied. We will definitely return to taste the other courses, which we were unable to enjoy.

12/03/2025: I was passing through those parts and stopped by chance. It was all very good, excellent value for money

01/03/2025: As always... Respect the highest expectations. Excellent products, quick to serve and STAFF always available to the customer.

20/01/2025: Uno dei pochi locali in zona aperto anche a pranzo: ottima cucina tipica, servizio celere, personale gentile e accogliente.

23/01/2025: We celebrated an anniversary, we had a really great time and the food was fabulous with tasty and plentiful dishes.

01/12/2024: Un posto tranquillo e accogliente, dove sembra di stare a casa e pranzare in compagnia. Cibo ottimo e abbondante , gentilissimo signor Silletta, titolare del locale. Ho pranzato insieme alla mia famiglia e una coppia di amici, siamo stati benissimo.

05/03/2025: Pesce fresco, ma poco gustoso, non sapeva di nulla. Porzioni mignon e prezzi esagerati, rapporto qualità prezzo pessima.

16/02/2025: Definitely a place to recommend. Not the usual emblazoned and super crowded restaurant, but a real family-run trattoria, like few others nowadays....... Very good dishes, starting from the appetizers, both hot and raw. The cod meatballs with sauce are excellent. You can often find off-menu items, based on the season and availability of the catch! Good choice of wine list. Nice internal room, very nice external courtyard, facing the sea you can dine while looking at Sicily!

26/03/2025: Good pizza, good restaurant, I recommend it

26/02/2025: Cozy and very nice place. Very kind and warm-hearted staff. I'll tell you about the singular experience with the owner who came to pick me up because I had the wrong address and I was on foot 😅. Fabulous gluten free pizza and divine ice cream. Quality ingredients. Highly recommend.

22/02/2025: Great place, nice view of the beach. I recommend it!
