I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Messina

23/07/2025: Il Ristorante Sire 🍽, in zona Recanati si affaccia sulla strada e attira subito l'attenzione. Siamo tornati due volte, a pranzo abbiamo gustato degli ottimi caserecci al pistacchio 🍝 (con pasta fresca, pancetta, cipolla, panna e parmigiano): davvero saporiti e ben bilanciati nei sapori! Molto buone anche le insalatone, fresche, ricche e ben composte. A cena abbiamo optato per la pizza 🍕, per la verità deludente: impasto poco digeribile, difficile da tagliare e che, raffreddandosi, diventa stopposo. Per ora, promosso il ristorante ✅️, bocciata la pizzeria ❌️. P.S. A Giardini Naxos, trovare una pizza veramente buona si sta rivelando una vera sfida! 😅

03/05/2025: Friendly staff, nice food and location better than expected, it’s right by the road junction but it means you kind of see the world going past

30/07/2025: Revestido aquí de nuevo después de nuestra última visita hace 3 años, y recomendaría a cualquiera que quiera comer aquí para probar su comida y bebidas. El propietario reconoció de inmediato cuando nos vio en nuestra noche de 1 calle de vuelta en Taormina después de una brecha de 3 años. nos recibió como amigos perdidos hace mucho tiempo y era muy hablador y nos dio la bienvenida allí. Magdalana nos reconoció también y tuvimos una buena charla mientras placiong nuestra orden con ella. Ambiente muy relajado allí y todo el personal allí es cálido y tranquilo. La comida es buena y los precios muy razonables también, nuestros amigos que estaban con nosotros también quedaron impresionados con la comida y los precios. tampoco te apuran así que te sientas, comes, bebes y te relajas sin que te apuren.

29/07/2025: Girando per i vicoletti , abbiamo cenato in questo ristorante ordinando dei secondi carne ( involtini e filetto ) veramente dí eccellente qualità. Serviti dal proprietario e dai collaboratori attenti e disponibili .

23/08/2025: Friendly staff, excellent carbonara. 5 well-deserved stars.

18/08/2025: I received a review notice from my daughter for the best Pasta alla Norma I've ever eaten. I, who am the father and have been cooking for 40 years, was put aside by her for telling me that this one she ate was better than mine at least 10 times. Does that mean I'm a bad cook? No, it's simply because La Scala makes an exceptional Pasta alla Norma and I know my daughter is a great foodie! Thanks guys, my little girl is happy tonight! I'll come visit you as soon as possible.

17/08/2025: We went for dinner last night. The service was excellent; the waiters were kind, friendly, and attentive. The fish appetizers were delicious (a bit pricey, but in line with the quality of the fish). The grilled fish main course was also very good. It was a shame about the first course and the dessert. The spaghetti with clams was tasteless; perhaps it wasn't mixed well enough, but it tasted like plain spaghetti with clams on the side. It's a shame because the cooking and quality of the spaghetti were excellent. The dessert, on the other hand (a deconstructed cannoli with ricotta, capers, and lemon) was definitely not worth the €12 price tag. It was very stringy, perhaps because of the gelatine, but it wasn't to my liking (perhaps just my personal taste). Overall, it's a restaurant with great potential, and with a few more tweaks to the kitchen, it could be a top-notch restaurant. I would recommend not setting the prices for desserts or side dishes so high. The risk is that it would come across as overly pretentious, setting high expectations that might not be met.

15/08/2025: Unfortunately, this year was terrible. Chef Gianluca was good, he brought a good name and good dishes, but by changing chefs and keeping the same dishes, the result is clear. Less than inadequate. P.S.: Customers don't argue :) If I say there's NO citrus fruit in my dish (and I eat the dish, not the waiter), you can't tell me it's not true. If the menu says spaghetti with shrimp AND citrus fruit, citrus fruit MUST BE there. Last but not least, the pasta seemed precooked. Change chefs or lower the prices.

25/08/2025: Dearest ooooo.. ...I understood the wide choice... cold products, I asked to heat them up for the children no response we add the very expensive prices I had a stomach ache the whole time I returned.... never again...

24/08/2025: The pizza was excellent, but the service was a bit poor. The wait for a pizza was an hour and a half.

24/02/2025: Buono Trovato per caso grazie ad un passante a Milazzo al quale ho chiesto dove si potesse mangiare Paghi 43 euro e mangi un menù di pesce discreto ... Ovviamente nn si può pretendere niente di più a questo prezzo ... Ci ritornerò

04/01/2025: Fort Apache per noi è una garanzia. Ci torniamo ogni anno durante la nostra permanenza in Sicilia. Stavolta abbiamo preso il menù di pesce con antipasti e primi. Porzioni abbondanti e rapporto qualità/prezzo insuperabile.

01/05/2025: Siamo stati in questo ristorante consigliati da un amico. Che dire, cibo di alta qualità, cortesia e professionalità 👏👏👏

27/04/2025: It has changed management (now from Orientals) and name. Lapsed in quality and service and prices higher than average.

20/07/2025: It will probably be good to eat!? We haven't had the chance to evaluate it!!! 😥 after having immediately placed an order, after about 45" we were informed that the order had not been sent to the kitchen 🥴 and it would no longer be possible due to the time, to prepare it... So we opted for another order, which we reluctantly did by halving the courses, only to be told again that this one too would take too long... To accommodate us, they could have made us something quick on the grill 🥴. It's really true that there is always something to learn, in all the years that I have been going to restaurants, this is the first and only time that it has happened to me. 😥

05/05/2025: Even though it has been around for decades, it was the first time I set foot there. The restaurant is spread over two floors. Rooms not very large but welcoming. The waitresses (all women) are friendly and efficient. I ate well. Advised!

31/07/2025: Excellent hospitality, delicious food and Maurizio super helpful!!

27/07/2025: Outdoor tables under the shade of the trees Perfect for those who want to spend a couple of hours in the cool

06/09/2025: Clean place, great food, and a small farm and playground. Miriam, our waitress, was really kind and welcoming.

28/08/2025: The space was poorly maintained, the prices were too high for the quality, and we found hair in the food. They offered to replace the dish. Not recommended.

05/08/2025: The food was very bad - I had a stale calzone and the worst pistachio croissant I’ve ever had. The pistachio was a gelatinous sludge with a chemical taste.The first cappuccino was good while the second was undrinkable. Unfortunately the higher rated places were busy and we were desperate for a coffee.

26/07/2025: Cheap drinks and large ones so I can recommend only 7 euros and drinks here are 12 euros so it's worth it and very good

08/05/2025: Vino a través de este lugar en nuestro primer día en Taormina para el almuerzo. Tuvimos un gran almuerzo en una bonita terraza. La pizza era la mejor que tuvimos en Taormina y una gran carbonara también. Terminé viniendo aquí para almorzar dos de los cuatro días aquí. Buena relación calidad-precio y lo recomendaría.

04/05/2025: Lindo comedor con vista, pero eso es todo. La comida es promedio, pero sorprendentemente el vino fue diluido. Pedimos una jarra de vino tinto de la casa y nos quedamos atónitos cuando lo probamos y obviamente era medio agua. Nunca he tenido esto en ningún restaurante.

01/08/2025: Abbiamo mangiato a pranzo in questo ristorante, su una bella terrazza con vista mare. Abbiamo mangiato pane cunzato, frittura mista, spiedini di pesce spada. Buon cibo, piatti tipici, servizio veloce e prezzi adeguati.

22/07/2025: Luftiger Terasse, Blick aufs Meer, sehr gutes Essen: Pizza blitzschnell am Tischund köstlich,,Risotto und Nudel absolut top! Hauswein kühl und leicht. Absolut empfehlenswert!

19/08/2025: We ordered a takeout pizza to eat on the boat. After a while, we approached the counter to politely ask if it was ready, and the pizza chef, instead of responding normally, ordered us to leave in a threatening and rude tone. This was truly inappropriate behavior: we certainly don't expect a red carpet, but at least a modicum of politeness. An unpleasant experience that ruined the excitement of the moment.

18/08/2025: Arancina Ragu for 3,5€ but they taste terrible. Expensive and definitely not worse the price. Not classic sicilian food!
