I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Catania

20/04/2025: Excellent experience at Villa Etrusca for Easter lunch!

06/01/2025: Villa Etrusca è un locale con diverse sale ricevimenti e un ampio giardino. La cucina è di ottima qualità e durante la prova menù ci sono state proposte varie alternative, una migliore dell'altra. Non abbiamo avuto nessuna difficoltà ad organizzare il nostro matrimonio, grazie alla disponibilità dello staff e del titolare. Il giorno prima del matrimonio il titolare, accortosi del picco di temperature previste per l'indomani, ci ha contattati repentinamente, proponendoci un'alternativa al nostro ricevimento, al fine di non far soffrire il caldo ai nostri invitati. Gesto molto apprezzato, che ha contribuito all'ottima riuscita del nostro matrimonio.

28/05/2025: We were tourists….and we really lucked out on this restaurant. We don’t like going to the tourist traps. This is a gem! I would recommend the pistachio pesto pasta! Amazing! The panelle palermitane, and the mini Sicilian Fritte were to die for….and in our second visit we ordered the Tuna tataki ….and again simply amazing! Definitely a must if you are in Catania

26/05/2025: Reading the menu you get the impression of high ambitions, unfortunately the kitchen can’t quite deliver on those ambitions. The food is almost there but needs that last bit of QC that only a great chef can deliver. I think that the restaurant would do itself a favour if it reduced the menu to 1/3 of the dishes and focused hard on getting those right. The service is impeccable and the wine list is fairly priced. All in all an ok experience but there is room for improvements.

07/05/2025: Great food and service! Pizza was very good and a perfect tortino al pistacchio ❤️

02/05/2025: One of the best pizzas you can try in the area. Really excellent: it's been a long time since I ate a pizza in which the flavor of pistachio could be perceived so well.

09/06/2025: I have always appreciated La Cantinaccia for its pizzas and especially for its desserts; but I must say that the dishes in the pub are also very good. I have been going there for dinner with great pleasure for many years and for those who love desserts, I strongly recommend that you immediately put aside their cream millefeuille. Recommended +++++

31/05/2025: The restaurant is located in a central area of ​​Catania, as soon as you enter you are enchanted and pleasantly welcomed by the rustic room created like a cellar. I think that in addition to the place, the food and the super helpful service, what I liked most is the atmosphere that is created, intimate and serene. As usual I give my votes. Location: 9- but only because there is little space between one table and another Food, value for money: 9 Service: 10+ Leave room for their desserts, homemade and delicious!

11/05/2025: good range of purely vegan food, but popular dishes sell out before the end of the day! The seating indoors and out is a little rudimentary so best suited to eat-and-go. Great value though

11/05/2025: Really great place. They mange to bring a little innovation and "contamination" in the traditional Sicilian food, and they do it by keeping all dishes as light as possible (and it's not an easy task with Sicilian food). Impressed! Fantastic! We came twice and if we had more time we would have come even a third time

06/04/2025: Friendly, hospitable and delicious food

09/03/2025: Excellent I would say..!..pity I live far away..it would be one of my favorite restaurants😋!!highly recommended if you pass through those parts it's really worth it!!🤩

03/06/2025: I had already been there for lunch in the past, at the time we had taken a meat-based menu and it was excellent, intrigued, yesterday we wanted to try the fish menu, I must say that we were pleasantly surprised, everything was delicious, very fresh fish, the selection of appetizers was fabulous, the service was impeccable, highly recommended

30/05/2025: Had fish-based dinners several times, good quality of raw materials also for pizza. Recommended.

06/06/2025: Fresh and delicious fish, friendly staff

05/06/2025: It is confirmed as the best restaurant on the Ionian coast. Not to be missed.

11/05/2025: A place with excellent home cooking. They have a bit of service problems, during lunch with a few more customers they got completely lost.

12/04/2025: Family atmosphere and genuine cuisine with typical, fresh products.

16/05/2025: All good. If you want crispelle with anchovy and ricotta here they are the best! Also good are the rice crispelle, the scacciate and the rustic pieces.

09/04/2025: I enjoyed ricotta crispelle with anchovies and rice crispelle with honey. Excellent

25/04/2025: Old school vibe. Had assorted fried fish and shellfish, a massive plate of Pasta Alla Norma, swordfish past, and local dry white wine— so good! Papa Lardo runs the place and is very friendly.

11/04/2025: The restaurant is nice and the staff friendly. The food was good but too greasy.

29/05/2025: The 4.1 star is not accurate, this is a lovely restaurant. The food was fresh and tasty, chilled vibe and attentive staff. Well worth stopping in, far exceeded expectations.

29/05/2025: Had a lovely meal after a day at the beach. Around the corner from Lido Azzuro. Pasta with pistachio pesto delicious!

08/06/2025: Il ristorante è ubicato ai piedi della scalinata di Caltagirone, patrimonio dell'UNESCO. È ubicato all'interno dello storico palazzo Reburdone. Ho avuto modo di apprezzare le prelibatezze culinarie in occasione di un evento familiare. L'estro dello chef e la bontà del cibo, nonché la professionalità del personale mi hanno fatto vivere bene ogni momento. Pesce freschissimo e servizio impeccabile. Consiglio a quanti lo desiderano di fare esperienza del ricco menù che lo chef propone.

29/05/2025: Eccellente ristorante ai piedi della monumentale Scalinata di Caltagirone. Il locale si presenta dall'atmosfera elegante ed armonioso , servizi al top, presentazione dei piatti con stile ed armonia. Servizio al tavolo eccellente, cordialità e disponibilità del personale. Il pesce freschissimo, sia nei crudi che nei cotti. La pasta fresca, una chicca di gusti e sapori di ogni singolo ingrediente.

08/05/2025: Our breakfast here was included with our Airbnb stay. At first, we were a bit skeptical—the place didn’t look very promising—but we were completely wrong. The staff were incredibly polite and welcoming. While their English wasn’t perfect, communication was no problem at all. In fact, they went above and beyond, offering us items beyond what was included. The chocolate croissant was fresh and delicious, and the orange juice was outstanding—probably the best we had on our trip. A surprisingly great start to the day.

13/12/2024: Always at the top, in everything!
