I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Catania

30/01/2026: Excellence and charm on the slopes of Mount Etna. Cantine Nicosia is more than just a food and wine stop, it's a complete sensory experience. The location is simply enchanting: a perfect blend of modern elegance and the historic charm of lava stone, with a breathtaking view that perfectly prepares you for a tasting. What immediately strikes you is the obsessive attention to every detail, from the decor to the presentation of the dishes. The service is impeccable: the staff is extremely knowledgeable, attentive without ever being intrusive, capable of explaining the wines and the region with a passion that engages the guest. The quality of the culinary offerings lives up to their renowned wines, creating a perfect blend of innovation and Sicilian tradition. A place where professionalism meets the most authentic hospitality. An experience worthy of top marks.

21/01/2026: It's become our regular stop in Sicily. We tried the tasting of four wines, accompanied by a delicious lunch. What can I say... it was a journey of flavors and happiness. The icing on the cake was the incredibly knowledgeable and friendly Chiara. We'll definitely be back. Kind regards, Fam. Nicosia ❤️❤️❤️❤️

02/02/2026: Excellent local food at a good price, I can only recommend it!

24/01/2026: Great food. Great pasta and coffee. Family atmosphere. We found it by accident, but we'll be back.

01/02/2026: Very nice restaurant in the center of Catania. It's located in an area where parking is quite difficult. I tried the seafood and I'd say I was very pleased. The staff was absolutely super professional and extremely kind.

05/01/2026: We booked our table here for the last dinner of our mini-vacation in Catania on the recommendation of the owner of our accommodation, and we have to thank her for having had an amazing culinary experience. We chose the selection of seafood appetizers—raw, hot, cold, and fried—accompanied by a small sample of caponata and an excellent basket of bread and sesame breadsticks, and were completely blown away by the quality and freshness of the ingredients. The menu offered many other dishes, but we preferred to stop after the appetizers because, with so many courses arriving, we struggled to finish everything. The final bill was high and average for similarly sized restaurants, but believe me, it's worth it! Highly recommended!

15/02/2026: Last night I ate with my family in this restaurant, excellent welcome, the lady I think is the owner was very attentive to the needs of my child,.,..very kind, friendly and good food too/I ate fish/my wife gluten-free pizza/I recommend it see you soon

26/01/2026: Thank you so much for the excellent service and for your kindness towards Aurelio!

13/01/2026: Guided tour led by an heir of the Biscari family, priced at €10. The tour is very interesting, considering the rooms you visit and the story of the noble family's evolution over the centuries. The music room is fantastic. The tour lasts approximately one hour and 30 minutes. I highly recommend it if you're in Catania.

09/01/2026: Don't miss this palace in Catania! Stunning 🤩

11/02/2026: Overall, a decent experience, but one incident inevitably affected the evening. The charcuterie and cheese platter featured good products, albeit rather basic and not particularly refined. The pizza was pleasant in flavor; however, the leavening was probably not perfectly balanced, as I found it a bit heavy in the hours that followed. The most sensitive note was the wine. I had ordered a glass of Coraline Frappato rosé, but was served a white wine. Upon observation, I was told it was still a rosé, but it was described as "Grillo." Furthermore, I noticed that the wine was poured by mixing two already opened bottles, and what was served did not correspond to a rosé. I believe that clarity, consistency, and correctness are essential elements in the restaurant business. For this very reason, while I appreciated some aspects of the experience, it is not a place I would personally choose to frequent again.

02/02/2026: Nice place, the food is very good. Recommended!

01/12/2025: Very nice restaurant, with very good food which is presented in a beautiful manner and friendly staff.

25/09/2025: The food here was very creative and tasty. I had the "lasagna" which was layers of steak and vegetables with melted cheese on top and it was excellent. My wife had the gluten free pasta and that was also very good. One of the best meals we've had in our two weeks here in Sicily. Anil the waiter was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately there was hardly anyone there when we were there and the interior was a bit basic.

10/01/2026: Vinetna is definitely a landmark in Linguaglossa. While the cuisine focuses on fresh ingredients and tradition, the dining room offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere thanks to Stefania and her brother. The excellent wines from the wine shop elevate the experience to a memorable level. I hope to return soon.

23/12/2025: Great find. We loved our dinner at this family-run osteria: the food, the wine (let Stefania select for you!), the warm service. Dishes were inventive, fresh and highlighted the region. Highly recommend!

08/01/2026: Very welcoming place and excellent food I will definitely be back

06/01/2026: We had the famous appetizers. A good starter, but then when they brought out Venere rice with some shrimp and coucous with surimi, everything took on an unpleasant connotation. I don't know how someone could do something like this, with all the wonderful seafood available in Catania. A table for two barely fit two dishes in addition to ours. Kudos to the wait staff who served us.

14/01/2026: Pizzeria del Centro. Known for its traditional thin-crust pizzas cooked in a wood-fired oven at affordable prices. It's a popular spot for both tourists and university students, offering dine-in and takeout options.

11/01/2026: Pizza doesn’t look impressive, but damn, it tastes good. And the service is excellent. I will be back.

15/02/2026: Yesterday I went and as soon as I arrived the staff welcomed me straight away and the food was excellent especially the pizza

12/02/2026: Excellent restaurant/pizzeria. Excellent food and friendly, efficient staff.

10/01/2026: I ate here with my family, and we ate very well, the pizza was delicious. I recommend this place to everyone, and above all the staff is very kind.

20/12/2025: The food was delicious, but the staff left a lot to be desired. They immediately took away the plates with my daughter's dinner still on them, making it clear we had to leave... we'll hardly be back!

23/01/2026: In the club. The only worthy person left in Nicolosi.

21/01/2026: Excellent service and especially the pizza.

02/12/2025: Nothing special... limited menu... small portions...

28/11/2025: The vibes were cool, with regional wine surrounding us. The staff was polite, and the food was delicious

15/02/2026: This ended up being our favourite meal in Sicily. We were welcomed with complimentary bruschetta, which immediately set the tone. The service was truly amazing — warm, thoughtful, and very homey. We ordered one pasta to share and they kindly split it into two bowls for us without even being asked. We also had mussels as an appetizer, and they swapped our plates so we could share easily. The pasta was incredible, portions were generous, and everything felt made with care. We only found this place on our last day and really wish we had discovered it sooner. Such a comforting, memorable meal

13/02/2026: Simple but excellent place for seafood. Love the old school atmosphere with open kitchen.
