I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Messina

18/11/2025: Unfortunately, I live far from this shop, where I would be a loyal customer. They have everything I consider a treat and that gives me peace of mind. Luckily, online orders exist. I was really pleased with the service, very fast, and the package was well-packaged. Thank you.

15/11/2025: The report is negative because there is no way for elderly people who do not have a credit card to pay cash on delivery.

25/09/2025: A true gem in the lower part of the village, just a few meters from the sea and the pebble beach. The food is a delight for the taste buds; you'll never want to leave the table. All the freshest local fish is served with kindness by the owner Aldo's sons, who are also extremely hospitable and knowledgeable in explaining the dishes. The wine list is varied, featuring Sicilian products to suit all budgets. If you're near the village, stop here for an experience you won't soon forget.

13/09/2025: On the recommendation of a local, we opted for this restaurant... a beautiful, simply furnished room that adds warmth to the atmosphere, and a small outdoor terrace. Friendly and helpful service... Tagliatelle with cherry tomatoes, shrimp, and eggplant (very delicate), a good seafood appetizer, and a grilled dish (delicious sea bass), shrimp, swordfish roll, and grilled vegetables... We were very satisfied!

10/02/2026: Got a nice tour through Etna wines, they opened up fresh bottles and server is by glass on what we asked for. Served us local pasta dishes, after 15.00 closing hours.. Amazing food, wine and service.

20/01/2026: We celebrated my father's 70th birthday and couldn't have made a better choice. A welcoming and elegant venue right in the city center. We chose the menu from among the many options available with the owner and chef, Mr. Ficarra, who accommodated all our requests. He's a delightful and helpful person, along with his entire family. The menu was enjoyed by both adults and children, the fish was incredibly fresh and the portions generous. Every detail was carefully considered, from the table decorations to the printed menu as a keepsake. All this was accompanied by impeccable service thanks to the kindness and friendliness of the staff. Thank you for making our day even more special. We recommend it to everyone. We'll see you again soon.

24/09/2025: We organized a wonderful party for about 60 people at Manuja in September 2025 under the new management of Giorgia and her husband. Aside from their kindness and helpfulness, the food was delicious, we had a great time, the place was magical, and the buffet was so good! We had both vegetarians and celiacs, and they were able to accommodate every request. Thank you so much for organizing our pre-wedding!

24/08/2025: Our expectations were a bit disappointing, with pizzas that were unfortunately not good. I can only hope it was just a moment and that everything becomes 5 stars 😜

07/11/2025: The food is very reasonably priced and also very good (we recommend ordering the pizzas). The staff are lovely and the views are incredible.

23/09/2025: The pasta, or primo piatto, was unparalleled—full of flavor, exquisite. The second course, frankly, didn't live up to what we had already eaten. The dessert was very tasty, and the service was nothing special.

05/05/2026: The service is quick and very friendly, and the place is cozy. However, the mixed fried fish platter fell short: the calamari was bland, there were very few small fish, and the filling consisted of salad, frozen fries, lemon, and orange slices.

03/05/2026: Menu prices are 40 % more than advertised

01/04/2026: Kindness and professionalism, combined with a wealth of expertise in preparing exquisite dishes, make Giardino di Sicilia a sought-after destination for even the most discerning customers.

12/03/2026: This restaurant offers two types of food: for the stomach and for the brain. Thanks to Salvatore (the owner) for the interesting conversation. And the food... very, very tasty! Dogs are welcome🐶 I recommend it♥️💜

11/03/2026: A lovely, traditional little spot by the sea. Tasty seafood dishes and perfectly cooked and seasoned pasta.

27/12/2025: Good fish, excellent prices and very friendly staff

07/04/2026: The food was cold and the service was very slow. We waited an hour for our first courses. We won't be back.

09/03/2026: If I can give you one piece of advice, I'd say visit and experience the quality, a truly satisfying place.

30/03/2026: Family-run restaurant. The atmosphere is a bit basic, but the food is excellent and the prices are more than fair.

04/02/2026: We ate here twice. No fuzz, simple regional food well made and professionally served. Simple menu but with food others do not serve. Real home cooking as promised. We will come back.

23/09/2025: We were lying on the beach in front of the restaurant. The smell of the food made us hungry. I then found cozze (mussels) on the menu. The portion was very generous for €15. I've never had better. Slightly spicy, with garlic, tomato, and white wine. Cover charge was €1.50. The cozze are fantastic. Good service with a sea view. The Moretti draft beer is too expensive at €6 (0.4l).

22/09/2025: Lack of transparency... a well-kept beach in an excellent location... but what we consumers cannot and will not forgive is the lack of transparency and the unclear information regarding prices for admission, sunbeds, umbrellas, etc.

01/04/2026: Good coffee, nice people, but surprisingly high price level. I wonder if the locals pay the same prices, or if we were charged a kind of tourist tax.

07/04/2026: The staff was very kind and incredibly friendly. We ordered pasta, pizza, and a schnitzel. The schnitzel was the most delicious of all, even though it was missing some vegetables. The coffee was exquisite. We had a great time, thank you.

17/09/2025: A good place for a simple meal, decent food. It's a shame we couldn't enjoy a sea view, but overall it was still satisfactory and the flavors were fairly classic.

10/09/2025: I had the pleasure of dining here last night. The place is very elegant and pleasant. We were served by very kind and helpful waiters, always ready to recommend the right food. We started with a delicious shrimp cocktail, followed by spaghetti with clams and gnocchi with pesto and shrimp, all accompanied by a fruity white wine that made the dinner incredibly tasty. We finished with a panna cotta and an apple tart. Nothing to add, everything was perfect. The sound of the waves in the background created a magical atmosphere. If you love good food, this is a must-try, highly recommended!
