I migliori ristoranti di cucina pesce in Messina

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.

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.

20/02/2026: Three of us had dinner, and we had some good hamburgers. It fell a bit short of my expectations; I expected a bit more quality. For example, the bacon was cold, and the hamburger wasn't hot enough, not even cooked thoroughly. The service was impeccable. I was a bit disappointed by the price of a glass of wine; €7 for an Etna red seems a bit excessive.

16/05/2026: Excellent food and service! Niccoló is the best! He gave us blankets to keep us warm while sitting outside. I highly recommend for a relaxing dinner with a beautiful atmosphere and the steak Gorgonzola was amazing!!

15/04/2026: We saw this trattoria when arrived for a day's trip to Taormina and came back for lunch. And, we chose right: small, cozy, great food and wine, and music So happy we ate here.

10/11/2025: Friendly staff, friendly owner, excellent food, and everything is fresh. It has a sea view. I was there a few years ago. I really enjoyed it and recommend it.

28/09/2025: Family run and sweet staff… definitely an unhurried vibe which we didn’t mind! The pasta with baked ricotta was soooo yummy as were the grilled vegetables. Tasted like going to a friend’s family house for dinner!

09/05/2026: Wonderful experience. The views force you to take dozens of photos (day and night). Rafael (?) took exceptional care of us including an impromptu dinner in the lounge on a chilly spring evening. Loved it.

08/05/2026: A pleasant stay in a hotel nestled in an oasis of peace and relaxation, because that's what the island of Salina is all about. The hotel is simple and well-maintained, and the staff is friendly, helpful, and professional. Our only complaint was that some hotel services were unavailable, likely because the season is just starting. Overall, the experience was positive.

20/09/2025: Divine cuisine, let yourself be guided by the catch of the day, you will not be disappointed! Typical, romantic setting and plunging view of the bay of Milazzo! The charming owner, behind his desk, plays us the Italian hits of the 80s! A place to discover and especially to come back 🎉

17/09/2025: A regular stop at this restaurant when we're in Milazzo. A small terrace overlooking the sea and always fresh fish. The staff are friendly and courteous.

07/10/2025: Well...my friends reading this, my expectations were high, in the sense that when they tell you about a gourmet restaurant, you don't just expect a beautiful plating but something more. Punta Lena is a charming restaurant, nothing extraordinary, right on the sea. Perhaps the downside was that when we went for dinner, it was already dark, and we couldn't tell we were right next to the sea. In any case, the dishes were well-cooked, but like pretty much everywhere else in Stromboli. It didn't stand out compared to the rest in terms of food quality. One flaw I absolutely didn't expect was the peppered mussels, which were so salty it tasted like seawater. And we Sicilians know how to cook mussels...when we pointed this out, we were simply told: oh...strange... Anyway, my calamari was good, but it was frozen. Maybe it's because I'm used to eating fresh fish; I can tell right away. The flavor was very good, anyway. That said, I can't give more stars because, guys, it's truly impossible to mess up a Pepata... The prices are truly outrageous for the type of food.

26/09/2025: Decent dishes, very friendly waiter, nice location.

24/05/2026: Good pizza and well served all year round

21/03/2026: Service too slow, no smiles, a table of two tourists in March: we were served after everyone else, great.

02/06/2026: I ordered a carbonara and they brought me an omelette with a little pasta, after I pointed it out they brought me another pasta that was completely watered down

27/05/2026: The Pizza Frutti di Mare is generously topped with various mussels and shrimp and tastes delicious. Therefore, 5 stars.

10/06/2026: Very good first courses and friendly staff

18/05/2026: I returned to this restaurant after a long time, and I must say that I found everything as good as it once was: exquisite, well-cooked food, a rich appetizer, reasonable prices, and very fresh fish. In short, I was satisfied, and I must add that the owner, Mr. Nuccio, made me forget the late, well-known owner, Pinuccio, a local legend. This means he learned a lot from him.

10/03/2026: A bar with a wonderful view of the Aeolian Islands... the sea 10 meters away... excellent products and staff

16/02/2026: We spent 3 days at Carnival, everything was excellent, everything was perfect, from the heated rooms, to the food, excellent waiters and the DJ who made us dance and have fun with his music 🎉💃. We will return as soon as possible 👋👌

17/05/2026: Enchanting place, impeccable service, the freshest fish I've ever eaten, and not to mention Nino, the owner, a truly special person. Highly recommended.

16/05/2026: A welcoming and elegant restaurant on the seafront of Capo d'Orlando. The staff is friendly, fast and helpful. The fish is excellent, fresh and well cooked. Despite the restaurant being full, the dishes arrived quickly. The tuna tartare was excellent, fresh and well seasoned. In particular, the first course of busiate pasta, courgettes and prawns was unique, especially the swordfish caponata. The tuna pieces were also excellent, nice and full-bodied and tasty. I wouldn't have added carrots. Anyway, highly recommended.

06/05/2026: Beautiful day!!! For lunch with friends, we discovered this place surrounded by greenery but with an incredible sea view, and that was already a plus. The well-kept garden, inhabited by various species of animals, gave us a sunny May Day with clean air. The menu was excellent, with a cold appetizer accompanied by various hot appetizers, both seasonal and local. Two first courses and a mixed grill cooked on the grill. The homemade bread and the red wine we were served were excellent. Impeccable service, the waiters were cheerful and helpful, even with requests for additional appetizers. Recommended!!!

26/04/2026: Excellent staff attention, authentic and quality food in a very relaxing natural setting.

11/10/2025: Maurizio was very kind and welcoming. The caponata was the best I've tasted in the Aeolian Islands, and the stuffed squid with sauce was wonderful! Thank you.

05/10/2025: For the owner alone this restaurant is worth a visit. Such a lovely and engaging man, who spoke Italian, English and German with us. The food is delicious and though on the pricier side, portion size and quality justify it. We had the best seafood noodles here. (Sadly I only have a photo of the empty shells)
