I migliori ristoranti di cucina pesce in Messina

01/12/2025: Average, I tried the paccheri with swordfish and the mussel soup, good value for money, generous portions

26/11/2025: Best restaurant in Taormina, a real treat even for me, who doesn't eat dairy.

22/08/2026: A great evening in a stunning location. The red porgy fish was superb, as was everything else. The pianist (whom we'd heard at another equally beautiful location) made the evening truly special. Lots of beautiful music, repertoire of every genre, his velvety touch created a truly elegant atmosphere. To close out this fantastic evening, he treated us to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Amazing ❤️

21/08/2026: Excellent cuisine, refined atmosphere, live music in the background

14/08/2026: We visited this restaurant this evening and unfortunately left very disappointed. The staff were quite rude and unwelcoming, which made the experience even worse. The food was very poor and lacked taste. Almost everything tasted strongly of butter, which overpowered the dishes. I ordered the pesce spada, which came with only four small halves of potatoes far too little for a main course. What was also disappointing was the service timing. There wasn’t even a proper break between the antipasti and the main course, so the meal felt rushed. Overall, a very disappointing experience. We expected much better and unfortunately would not recommend this restaurant.

14/08/2026: Generously served dishes at fair prices for the quantities.

13/06/2026: Eating out isn't my thing because it's hard to find everything I want at once. Every now and then, a miracle happens, and from the excellent food to the delicious flavors and attentive, impeccable service, I have no words to thank and compliment Arturo and Serena. The place is small and cozy (a plus for me), and we had a memorable evening. See you soon! Sergio and Agnese

30/05/2026: Amici Miei is my go-to place for seafood whenever I go out. They never fail, and it's worth spending a few extra euros to enjoy a home-like atmosphere, savoring new dishes with the complete assurance of fresh, quality ingredients. An institution.

26/07/2026: This seaside restaurant has a lovely white decor and a great atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We ordered seafood pasta and pasta with eggplant. The flavors were a bit on the salty side, but the seafood pasta was delicious, with plenty of small octopus pieces in the broth at the end! The portions were also generous. Definitely worth a visit! 👍

25/07/2026: We stumbled upon Giardini Naxos by chance. Kind and courteous service, excellent food in a stunning seaside location. Highly recommended.

20/06/2026: I visited this restaurant after it was recommended to me as a "hidden gem." I'm very grateful for the kind service I received despite my unfamiliarity with ordering. The swordfish rolls called "Involtini," recommended by the staff, were incredibly delicious. They were unbelievably good. The vongole was also superb; the flavors were perfectly balanced, with each ingredient complementing the others without being overpowering. Compared to Japan, Italian portions are larger, so I couldn't order many dishes, but this is definitely a restaurant I want to return to. Next time, I'll definitely order the swordfish rolls, and I'd also like to try other pasta dishes!

05/06/2026: Very fine food, good atmosphere, superb service

09/06/2026: Great pasta and service. A lovely atmosphere, and much less crowded than other places we visited in early June. Everything felt relaxed and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend it! Cheers.

09/06/2026: Excellent location, in the center of Taormina. Everyone who works there is very young, very kind and friendly. The food is truly good (hard to imagine in a tourist spot). Highly recommended. I hope it doesn't change. I'll definitely go on my next trip, already convinced of where to have lunch or dinner.

08/05/2026: Passing through Santo Stefano di Camastra we had dinner in this restaurant, very nice and elegant, excellent food both meat and fish, you eat well, I recommend it

28/04/2026: Well-kept environment, very courteous service, very interesting and quality food

20/08/2026: Excellent dishes with well-balanced flavors. Many of the seafood products are frozen, but fresh is also available upon request. Good value for money. It's a shame the air conditioning isn't satisfactory. Recommended for everyone.

18/08/2026: Very generous portions, reasonable prices, and super helpful staff! A regular stop every summer, and we've never been disappointed! 5 stars!

12/08/2026: Atmospheric place, very friendly service and delicious turbot (sea bass too:))) )

09/08/2026: I wouldn’t recommend this place. The pasta was mediocre at best, nothing special and definitely something you could easily make better at home. The €4 service fee per person also felt excessive. That said, the restaurant itself is lovely, with a nice atmosphere and a pleasant setting.

09/08/2026: A very good experience, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the welcome was warm. Nice decor and the table was very clean.

07/08/2026: It was very wonderful to eat in this Restaurant. The dinner was very delicious and the music, decoration and the ambience were beautiful. We will come again! Thank you very much!

02/08/2026: Best raw seafood, best host - this place was recommended by several people on my tour and the experience was more than great. The host Salvatore had the experience in restaurant business all over the world - from England to Australia - and it is shown in this very special place. Highly recommended!

26/07/2026: Girlfriend got unwell in front, he took us in for the airco, gave her a chair and elevated her legs then gave her an apple juice for her blood pressure. When we wanted to pay he would not take payment because he did it out of kindness to help someone. Very kind people and a beautiful restaurant!

03/07/2026: We visited this restaurant for lunch after visiting Milazzo Castle, and it's right near the entrance. It has lovely outdoor terraces, is family-run, and has been meticulously maintained. The food was excellent; we ordered pasta carbonara, pasta alla norma, and then fruit (watermelon) with scoops of vanilla ice cream or lemon sorbet. Everything was delicious, and above all, fresh, authentic, and homemade...these are the flavors! We were greeted by a very kind and helpful person who served us perfectly, even though he was the restaurant's pizza chef and was the only one in the dining room. He gave us excellent advice on the dishes and was very attentive and precise, serving all the tables and prioritizing everything. His wife and mother-in-law worked in the kitchen and prepared everything...very good meals! Highly recommended for other stops, both for lunch and dinner...well worth it! The price is reasonable; in fact, they also offer a smaller menu, but it's cheaper! What immediately strikes you is the kindness and helpfulness of the staff!

19/05/2026: Excellent experience. A small restaurant at the foot of the castle. Perfect service. Incredibly delicious and fresh seafood. A truly wonderful evening with special company.

08/08/2026: Spent almost every evening of the holidays enjoying the excellent pastries. Update: 2026: Everything was excellent again this year.

31/07/2026: The best restaurant I've been to

12/08/2026: Me and family had lunch here, delicious food. Had margaritta pizza, Calzone, grilled steak and steak fillets with peppercorn sauce and creme. Family friendly. Great service. Really recommend. Good price. Not too expensive. Great value for money for such a fantastic lunch.

12/08/2026: Excellent food, friendly and smiling staff, prices in line with other restaurants
