I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Catania

08/05/2026: Welcoming place and excellent food

01/05/2026: I went for lunch on May 1st. Excellent ingredients and impeccable service. I'll definitely eat there again.

13/07/2026: A delightful discovery...just a few meters behind Piazza Duomo. If you're looking for a true trattoria like the old days, you're in the right place 👌 authentic dishes at fair prices 👏. Highly recommended 💪 Gian Luca and Antonella Ladispoli RM

12/07/2026: We had a great time at this historic trattoria, very close to Catania's fish market. We didn't hesitate even though the place was empty, and once seated, we ordered sardines al beccafico, caponata, grilled fish, and swordfish. The service is simple, without frills. As is the beautifully laid table. The dishes are simple, authentic, and delicious. The prices are fair. If we ever return to Catania, we'll definitely dine here again.

29/06/2026: The fact that you let that family advertise yourselves is understandable! If I ever wanted to come, this will be a good reason not to EVER COME.

18/06/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A real Italian family trattoria, exactly the kind of place I was looking for. Simple, welcoming and authentic place, without unnecessary pretensions. The owners and staff are very kind and make you feel at home. The food is traditional, carefully prepared and has that authentic homemade taste that you look for when visiting Italy. We prefer such family trattorias instead of sophisticated restaurants, and this place won us over. We highly recommend it to everyone who wants to discover authentic Italian cuisine!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🇮🇹🍝❤️

11/07/2026: I couldn't order pizzas by phone. I was told there was no wait. I waited 40 minutes, and the pizzas weren't even good. I'll absolutely never order anything again! Anemic pizza and frozen products. I wouldn't wish anyone to eat in this place that's been stuck for 30 years.

11/07/2026: Very nice and cosy place.Great food,and really fast service.We had a very good time , live music, positive vibes and friendly environment.We will come back.Grazie mille.

13/05/2026: A café and pastry shop where you can stop for breakfast or a rotisserie. I know they serve first and second courses for lunch, and the menu changes daily. The friendly and helpful staff makes this place a must-visit when you're in the area. I highly recommend it.

01/05/2026: The best croissant I've ever had in Sicily… 🥐❤️

03/07/2026: We wanted a table with a sea view, given the terrace, so we chose the marina at 8:00 PM. They told us the terrace was completely reserved, so we could sit in the internal room overlooking the jet ski, covered by a black tarp. We refused, and then a place for two on the terrace randomly became available. Most of the tables remained empty until 9:30 PM. In the end, we ate frozen lobster, which was cooked well, frozen seafood salad, and... bagged mashed potatoes flavored with lemon and at least fresh parsley (they serve with the octopus). The wine list was disproportionate to the menu. Highly prized wines not supported by the menu.

25/06/2026: Great food, spectacular location

07/07/2026: We recently stayed at Cirasellaetna in Sant’Alfio for three nights. Laura, with the assistance of Giuseppe, was an amazing host. The food she cooked for us was simply sensational. The accommodation is in a 250 year old stone house which has been lovingly restored over many, many years. The property is located within the Etna National Park and we could even see the lava flow at night from the orchard! It is such a serene place to stay and disconnect from the frenetic pace of everyday life. Thank you Laura for the interesting conversations, delicious food and wonderful memories.

17/05/2026: Calm and beautiful place, great owners, yummy breakfasts , exceptional dinners, good proximity for start of the great hikes to explore mountains ( you'll need to use car 10 min drive up, also to get to the forest outside the populated area) . Place to return. Thanks!

07/05/2026: Beautiful venue, excellent food, helpful and very knowledgeable staff

25/12/2025: I was at a wedding in the summer and I have to say the location was very beautiful but everything else was forgettable!! The waiters were arrogant and rude, even to the people in the dining room! The head waiter scolded a 10-year-old girl who wanted to sing because it wasn't the right time... the food was brought in so quickly that you didn't even have time to enjoy it... The contract (and I know what I'm talking about) stated that entry was on the boat and the location was rented until 3:00... there wasn't even a hint of a boat tour and at 2:00 they made us understand that we had to leave by starting to turn off the lights! At 1:30 they made the DJ turn off the music since he had a contract with them until 2:30 (since they had stayed that way) and the DJ who until that moment had made everyone in the room dance!!!! At the time of the dessert buffet there was supposed to be an open bar, unfortunately no one was told where it was... again at dessert time there wasn't even half a bottle of water on the table and that day it was 38 degrees!!!! It's a shame because it could have been a wonderful evening but instead they ruined it a bit!!!

11/07/2026: Chalet on Etna Monte Tonda specialty for 50 years GR

10/07/2026: Paola and Concetto are exceptional

28/06/2026: Curious place. Indecipherable bill. Several hairs in the food. A place not to return to.

26/06/2026: The place is very quiet, not in the mainstream area but close to it. The owner is the waiter and he was sitting outside, doesnt speak english, only a few words. We ordered pasta with sea urchins and swordfish rolls. The pasta was great and enough but they gave us only 2 swordfish rolls for €18 and an additional €5 for side dish (which he didn’t mention was extra money, i thought it was included with the rolls). For dessert the tiramisu was a bit modern (with chocolate sauce and powder sugar), small and expensive also.

17/05/2026: We stumbled upon your restaurant by chance, good food but small quantities and high prices, charging 5 euros for bread, even if it hadn't been ordered, a total disappointment

26/04/2026: Small restaurant on the square facing the Norman castle. We had the appetizer tastings, which were quite good. The first courses were also good. Prices were reasonable!

17/05/2026: The food and drinks were very delicious. The service and the staff were fantastic, they were kind, helpful, they always had a kind word or gesture for us. We ate here several times and we loved the place.

09/05/2026: Great place to eat. The polpette and arancino are simply delicious, not to mention the desserts. Located in a quiet pedestrian alley.

17/07/2026: Wonderful villa. Excellent food.

22/06/2026: I celebrated my 25th wedding anniversary. Everything was perfect, from the friendliness of the owner and all the staff to the food. The venue was beautiful and even more enchanting in the evening.

18/09/2025: Kindness and courtesy. Excellent baked goods. The focaccias...Mmmmmmm, so good!

10/07/2025: Questo locale si conferma su livelli di ottima qualità! Decisamente buone le granite, ottima la rosticceria! Personale molto cortese e rapido! Il tutto contornato dalla posizione sul lungo mare scogliera della città! Decisamente un posto ideale, per incontrarsi con amici e trascorrere un po' di tempo insieme, gustando roba di qualità.

05/07/2026: One of the best bars in Nicolosi. The best part is that it has free parking next door. This is why I prefer it to other bars. Excellent food and snacks.

04/07/2026: The pasta with olives and tuna was awful, full of sauce and cheap oil. But they managed to do worse with the ice cream: the pistachio tastes absolutely nothing, and the Lotus, peanut, and cheesecake tastes 90% cream, with that bitter aftertaste they should taste like.
