I migliori ristoranti in Catania

21/07/2025: Excellent products, fast service and guaranteed friendliness

19/12/2025: We had breakfast at this very welcoming café. Everything was good. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

12/10/2025: Very nice little bar, friendly owner, super delicious mini cakes

12/11/2025: Pistachio granita was creamy wih hint of almond flavor. I loved it. Arancini was standard.

05/11/2025: Avoid the cannoli with the shell covered in chopped pistachios; they cost €4 and the pistachios taste like nothing. You might as well get the regular ones.

13/03/2026: This mini burger! It's incredibly delicious!!! The best in the world!!

07/03/2026: TOP diner! One of the best arancini! Delicious, sweet sauce. Excellent prices and quality.

29/12/2025: The QR code menu is a big turnoff. If you don't eat here often or eat Japanese you will struggle. We had to ask for a pen and paper so we can write down what we wanted. Then we got told the sake I picked wasn't available. Food was good and fresh but quite expensive compared to what we generally have.

21/12/2025: My partner and I were the last to arrive at this restaurant for the first time, at a dinner party. We noticed there were more guests than there were seats at the table. There was a bit of organizational chaos until everyone squeezed in a bit and two of us were seated at a separate table. While they were busy setting the table, we politely asked them to set the table for our two guests, who were missing everything since they'd been added to the main table and wanted, like the others, to start with the prosecco. Nothing. The girl approached twice, carrying glasses, and was invited by the owner to return to her seat. After a while, they arrived, but the prosecco had already gotten too warm. From that moment on, no matter what we asked for—from forks to water or more prosecco—we were incredibly ignored or, at any rate, always served last. When the owner approached and asked how things were going, I called him aside, politely inviting him to pay more attention. He clearly explained that the problem was related to the fact that there were more guests than expected, and I realized he was perhaps trying to take some of the frustration out on us since we were the last to arrive. Our only fault. I want to point out that our participation had been planned with the provider by email for days; we weren't the ones with extra guests. The idea was to leave at that point, but we didn't want to be disrespectful to those who invited us and the sponsor (who drove us). And the overall three stars are due to their kindness, certainly not to the location, but I'm not in the habit of writing negative reviews, especially not negative ones. Realizing we'd been targeted and had to stay, we avoided asking for anything else. Even the cake, despite being seated at the table waiting for it to be brought to us and sitting closest to the cutting area, was served first to the others standing, placed in vacant seats belonging to some of us who had already left, and even offered to tables outside our group rather than have it brought to us. The same thing had happened shortly before with the sake and the bitters; we didn't have the pleasure of anyone approaching to ask. Humiliated from start to finish, we left without tasting it and, given the obvious and repeated shortcomings toward us, refrained from greeting the owners—it's not my habit. I have no comment on the food, which many at the table considered excellent, as I would be affected by the poor service and bad mood, although the evening overall was a success and pleasantly enlivened by a band brought by the organizers. Unfortunately, I'll have to walk past there who knows how many more times since I've recently started working very close by, but I'll try to find an alternative route, ignoring them forever, like they did with me all evening.

09/11/2025: Great service! Highly recommend!

12/10/2025: I happened to be in the Pedara area occasionally and saw this place. It was immediately noticeable that it was quite popular and available for takeaway rectangular oven-baked pizzas.

28/03/2026: Master Pizza prepared by a master pizza chef. Beyond the high-quality ingredients, this is the kind of pizza that's worth a prize. Thin, well-cooked, crispy, and beautifully topped. THE BEST.

15/03/2026: Last night I ordered a pizza (to go) with zucchini WITHOUT SALTED RICOTTA. They made it WITH SALTED RICOTTA AND BASIL. I mentioned it and the pizza chef's assistant said, "It's just a little bit, is that a problem???" Now I wonder, "Why add ingredients you didn't ask for!" That said, they remade the pizza. The pizza chef took it out of the oven and added, "Don't add any toppings to the lady." Honestly, I didn't like the way he presented it, and the pizza (which cost €11) was truly awful. You decide.

17/11/2025: Very good pizza and breakfast too

01/11/2025: FINALLY THE REAL NAPLES RAME. This is the time of year when I start trying different bars to find the original recipe for the Neapolitan rame, which remind me of my childhood, but it's been a long time since I've been able to eat a real one. Until I tried this bar and... I can finally say that these are the real original rame, made according to the traditional recipe! I highly recommend them; you won't regret it! Besides the delicious food, I noticed the spotless rooms and very friendly staff (especially Giuseppe, the guy at the cash register). I'm super satisfied, I'll definitely be back!

08/04/2026: The secure private parking is a real plus. The pool was closed in April. Breakfast was very good (between 8 and 10 am). The rooms are nice, and the neighborhood is quiet! Thank you to the reception staff for their kindness!

01/03/2026: A very negative experience. During my stay, I found a bowl of pet food near my door and a cat roaming freely throughout the property. I'm allergic to food, and this caused a reaction that required me to take medication to help. Furthermore, the hotel's official website makes no mention of the presence of animals on the property: crucial information for those like me who suffer from allergies, which could have influenced my decision to book. I reported the issue to management, who removed the bowl and the cat, but refused any form of refund despite the inconvenience caused. A hotel should ensure a safe environment for all guests and, at the very least, be transparent in the information provided. I will not return and I do not recommend this hotel.

04/09/2025: As a tourist, I expected more. It's lively, like here in Turin. The decor is old and neglected, and there's no air conditioning. The only good thing is the almond pastries... oh well, never mind.

07/01/2026: We came because of the good reviews and were disappointed. The food was mediocre and the worst we've had in Catania. Even after we asked him to leave the terrace door open several times because of the cold air outside, he kept doing so so he could go out for a smoke.

25/10/2025: A real discovery! Calicenero is one of those places where taste meets excellence. Carefully crafted dishes, authentic flavors, and top-quality ingredients. Every course was a delight, from appetizer to dessert. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was attentive and friendly. The food was divine, we'll definitely be back and recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality dining experience!

15/12/2025: Only once and never again, a mass market environment, and you only need to stand at the counter for 2 minutes to see that they use everything from Eurospin but then they rip you off as if it were quality cured meats or drinks. P.S.: I have nothing against Eurospin because I go shopping there, but that's precisely why they can't charge so much for things.

28/10/2025: This cute and convenient kiosk offers the opportunity to grab a quick drink, grab a bite to eat, and enjoy an excellent coffee cream. The atmosphere is youthful and highly recommended for an aperitif or a simple drink with friends in the evening!

19/10/2025: I went with my friends to the pizzeria in Nicolosi to eat the gluten-free dough, good ingredients, quite large pizzas and well-seasoned, we will definitely be back

27/09/2025: The staff were welcoming and friendly and showed great hospitality. Exceptional pizza and outstanding burger. Will visit again for sure and higly recommend to others 👌🏼

24/03/2026: First pizza in Italy and super kind welcoming staff 🤌

28/02/2026: Pizza is a serious business, and you know how to do your job seriously. Delicious, fresh ingredients, and a delicious, melt-in-your-mouth flavor. Everyone is super polite, kind, and friendly.

18/02/2026: Emanuele, the best of the best of the bartenders.... Congratulations indeed!!!;

16/02/2026: There's not much to say... Once you enter here you feel at home
