I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Catania

06/11/2025: A typical Sicilian restaurant, the food is excellent, everything is homemade, and the waitress is incredibly kind. 100% recommended.

06/11/2025: A delightful older gentleman who, with just as much heart, cooks and talks about typical regional products. It's worth booking in advance, as everything is cooked exclusively for a given meal, and otherwise you might miss out.

18/10/2025: Excellent food with top-quality products, impeccable service and hospitality, all in no way inferior to a Michelin-starred restaurant.... The quality/price ratio is more than excellent. I highly recommend it.

03/10/2025: From the appetizer to the coffee, everything was exquisite. The attention paid to the composition of each dish and the raw materials used was excellent, as was the attention paid to the customer.

21/10/2025: Excellent quality meat and fish. Everything is fresh and grilled. A wide selection of grilled vegetables and a delicious caponata. A family atmosphere and very friendly staff. Excellent prices.

16/10/2025: A typical Catania trattoria, offering flavors of the old Sicilian culinary tradition. I've sent several friends here, and they've all been satisfied. Mr. Vito's kindness and the cleanliness of the premises are the trattoria's strong points. Thank you.

11/10/2025: We had a wonderful time, the food was excellent, the venue was elegant, and the staff was friendly. Highly recommended. A special greeting to the owner. Piedmont Holiday Group.

11/10/2025: I've been coming to Catania for work for five years, and Taverna del Grande Albero is a regular stop. First of all, I find quality and courtesy here, but above all, I feel like I'm at home. The owners have become like family to me. I GO TO FILIPPO'S, I say every time!!!! Always friendly, always hospitable, they never fail to chat with the customers, and I highly recommend it!! I've attached photos so you can fully understand my satisfaction. I'm sorry I didn't take a picture of the spectacular seafood appetizer!

22/09/2025: As always, we were greeted warmly by the attentive staff and then the food was AMAZING. Thank you.

18/08/2025: I can say that we called from Germany for an engagement and everything was great and we will go again. I recommend it to you.

30/10/2025: Excellent food, refined and never banal. The portions are generous and the fish is incredibly fresh. The fish appetizers are delicious, and the fried fish is delicious! The citrus-flavored fillet is a MUST-TRY. A true delight for the palate! The staff is friendly and helpful. We chatted a bit after the service, and I must say that, in addition to being professional, they are also very friendly. Highly recommended!

27/10/2025: A very nice, quiet, and characteristic place, ideal for eating well and spending a relaxing evening. The owners are pearls of people, very down-to-earth, friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. The place offers mostly fish-based dishes of excellent quality, which are served and prepared excellently, from appetizers to main courses! The selection of wines to pair with the dishes is also excellent, and if you don't know much about them, let their sommelier advise you, he won't disappoint! They serve the same menu also in a gluten-free version, including dessert, which by the way is not to be missed. It's basically a homemade chocolate cake with a little pistachio powder that is something indescribable. I assure you that even if you are full at the end of the meal, it will be impossible to resist it!! To return and return. Thank you very much, it is always a pleasure to come and eat at your place.

02/10/2025: Amazing food. We got the horse rib and the pasta alla Norma. Both were great. It is a little pricey but you can get a discount with the fork app. Nice service.

30/09/2025: It was one of the best food I have had in catania, good service. Nice people. Restaurant is high end but the location doesn't match it's quality. Overall I would give it a try!

04/11/2025: Delicious in name and in nature. Located in the center of Catania, this restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating. The decor outside is very charming, neat, and clean. The service is always very attentive and fast, even when it comes to the wine selection. The menu is quite varied, ranging from 80% fish to 20% meat, although the latter is still a good choice, especially considering the off-menu options. The fish is fresh and well-cooked, with excellent pairings. The bill is also good! Recommended.

27/10/2025: Everything was excellent. Traditional dishes, friendly staff! Eating well in a historic square is a wonderful experience.

22/10/2025: Excellent cuisine, kind and welcoming staff, the place is enchanting.

22/10/2025: Beautiful but the staff is always sulking

21/10/2025: Very good food and atmosphere! Highly recommend!

19/10/2025: Lovely!! Authentic Sicilian experience.

10/09/2025: The pizza ingredients are very good. But the dough itself lacks finesse. For dessert, I had the ricotta mousse, which was actually quite good.

02/09/2025: Very good pizza. I came across this place by accident. Delicious food and very friendly service. I recommend it.

10/11/2025: A positive experience, both for the kindness and friendliness of the staff and for the dishes: we had fresh fish, snapper, cooked in "acqua pazza" (crazy water), roasted vegetable sides, and a cutlet with chips, wine, and water. The house desserts were amazing, especially the one with ricotta, pistachio, and limoncello, Trinacria! I highly recommend it.

07/11/2025: Near the beach under the lighthouse. Good fish.

15/10/2025: A historic shop passed down from generation to generation. I know the Zappalà brothers well. Over the years, through many sacrifices, they have built a wonderful business, the fruit of the teachings their parents were able to pass on to them. They have the ability to transform every single product into pure poetry. Their passion is the combination of culture and tradition, and their dedication to improving day after day for exponential growth in the area... They deserve so much. Congratulations!!!!! Keep up the good work.... God bless you🙏

13/10/2025: An amazing place to eat, outstanding service

12/11/2025: While cycling, I stopped here and ate one of the best salads I've ever had, the ISOLA salad. I really enjoyed it.
