I migliori ristoranti in Catania

06/02/2026: The two guys who were working on the evening of February 6th were fantastic. Perfect service and delicious dinner.

26/01/2026: I ordered a package of toast, Coke, and chips on Deliveroo at 1:46 PM. The delivery driver arrives at 3 PM, delivers the toast, and when I ask, "Where are the chips and Coke?" he says, "I said they were included, but THEY SAID NO." I PAID FOR THE chips and Coke!!!! THEY NEVER ARRIVED.... SHAME!!! If I'd only had one toast, I would have paid less... I tried calling a NON-EXISTENT NUMBER!!! I will NEVER ORDER AGAIN and I will not recommend it... I'm not giving 0 because the toast was large and good (after 2 hours, even a shoe sole probably tastes good!! I'm making light of it, saying it's better...)

08/01/2026: The food is good, but the real problem is the lazy staff who seem to be doing you a favor by stuffing your sandwich. Sandwich with 2 slices of ham and 2 slices of cheese: €2.50

07/01/2026: Some of the staff are rude and the prices are sky high.

17/12/2025: I returned after years for an aperitivo (reinforced to the point 😱) Everything was very good, rich and even refined: good cured meats, phenomenal meatballs, caponata that reminded me of my grandmother, slices of bread with primo sale cheese and horse meat strips, pumpkin gnocchi, and those wings🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤. etc etc.... The attention of the two (I think the owners) to ensure we didn't miss anything, the attentive, friendly service.

23/10/2025: Shameful... I was urgently denied access to the bathroom while pregnant. I entered this establishment and politely asked if it was possible to use the bathroom. I was told that access was only for customers, and therefore, a drink was required. I explained that I was in an advanced stage of pregnancy (ninth month, clearly visible), but I was still rudely denied access, arguing that "I'm misinformed" in believing pregnant women have the right to use the bathroom. I would like to clarify that access to the bathroom should not be denied to children, people with disabilities, and pregnant women, precisely because of their particular conditions, which entail urgent physiological needs. This is not a personal favor, but a basic form of respect and civility. While there is no national law explicitly requiring establishments to provide restroom access to non-consumers, refusing access in situations of objective necessity can be considered discriminatory and contrary to minimum standards of hospitality. This is the first place I've encountered such a refusal. Other establishments, even highly frequented ones, have always been understanding and accommodating in similar cases. An attitude like the one encountered today does not do credit to those who manage a public establishment. I hope this report leads to a broader reflection on the sense of social responsibility towards people in special circumstances.

17/12/2025: Today I went to the Calatabiano store where I had also shopped last week and had updated my MD app, which was properly recognized by the cashier. Today, my code disappeared from my app, preventing me from using the discounted products. I asked the cashier, the same one from last week, and she said there was nothing she could do. In other supermarkets like Conad, Lidly, Paghi Poco, etc., even if I don't have a barcode, all I have to do is enter my mobile number and the customer is recognized. Why not at MD?

26/11/2025: I went shopping at the MD in CALATABIANO. I put some yogurt pots in the basket and unfortunately one broke. When I got to the checkout, I mentioned this to the cashier (a blonde foreigner) because I'm a polite person and instead of leaving it down like so many other people do, I took it to the checkout to avoid making a mess. The cashier in question made me pay for it, saying that if I wanted to take it home, she would give me a little bag to put it in. I looked at her and told her she could throw it in the basket; 50 cents wouldn't change my life. But the question arises spontaneously... How come when this happens, supermarkets in northern Italy take the product back and replace it with a healthy one, but not here in Sicily!!! I'm talking about the MD in Milan, of which I've been a loyal customer for years... Don't the same rules apply??? Give these people a crash course!!!

10/03/2026: A medium/small ice cream cone, with a mediocre flavour, made more of ice than substance, costs 3.80 euros...not even in the most renowned ice cream shops nearby, nor in the very centre, does it cost that much.

01/03/2026: If possible, I wouldn't give it a single star. It's no longer the Saint Moritz it once was. Now that it's under new management and is now called Café Moritz, it's changed for the worse. I went there to buy some mini pastries; I'd say a pastry shop in a remote Sicilian town has a wider selection, not to mention how expensive and tasteless it is. There are other, better, and less expensive pastry shops. One thing's for sure: they'll never see me again. I advise everyone to stay away from this place, which has now fallen into utter squalor. Not even a second-rate pastry shop offers such stale stuff.

18/12/2025: Nice place, friendly staff, threw up immediately because of the poorly cooked food.

03/12/2025: I don't think I'll ever order again. The food isn't bad, so if I have the chance, I might go there. But unfortunately, ordering means waiting who knows how long it takes for your order to arrive, only to be disappointed because they made a mistake. I've avoided leaving a review several times because I understand mistakes can happen, but after yet another disappointment, I think it's fair.

14/12/2025: In summary: a terrible place. The Aperol Spritz was practically just syrup, served in a very small portion, and on top of that it was twice as expensive as in a place just 20 meters away on the same street. The restroom was in a terrible condition, with a wet floor and a general lack of cleanliness. You also need to be very careful with the bill, as we could have been overcharged if we hadn’t paid close attention. We chose this place because of the nice view, which turned out to be completely overpriced. Despite the venue supposedly being closed, people kept coming in to ask for money or try to sell some cheap junk, and the waitresses didn’t seem to care at all.

01/11/2025: We stopped in for 1 coffee, average place but the view is gorgeous

09/03/2026: For Women's Day I have never eaten such a poor meal in my life. As a review I would say below zero, without organization, poorly set tables, without staff, the pizza chef was definitely a butcher, empty pizzas without toppings, before organizing events get your feet in order.

09/03/2026: We just left Women's Day, the food was awful, I'm sorry to say but everything was awful!!!!

04/09/2025: The food isn't gourmet, but it's good. Most importantly, it's warm. The service is friendly. As other reviews have said, it's perfect for a late-night meal after arriving in Sicily.

04/09/2025: The place was dirty and messy, it felt like a landfill. I was served by a child who looked like he was 12 without following any hygiene rules. The sandwich was poor quality and the meat was of questionable origin. It was very expensive compared to other competitors. I would not recommend anyone to eat here. It's truly dirty and poorly managed. Dirty tables, broken chairs... anything but welcoming.

14/04/2026: Poles (and others) shouldn't come, and as you can see in the photo, it's the worst cornetto I've ever had! (Unfortunately, the dough is rubbery! The pistachio filling is the worst I've ever had.) As for the coffee, it's strong, so who cares? Two cappuccinos plus two croissants cost €7, so prices are normal.

10/03/2026: Friendly staff and pleasant menu.

12/04/2026: The food was excellent, but typical of a buffet (not the best). The service wasn't tested very well, having had a buffet, but it was still available. Atmosphere: one of the nicest places.

27/11/2025: I have no idea what the food is like. But the service is terrible. I've done some work for them. I'm still waiting for them to pay me. They see the messages but haven't responded. It wasn't a big deal. But I put in the time.

06/03/2026: What a disgusting restaurant!! Rudeness, horrible food, and incredibly high prices! Dirty bathrooms with no paper, and spiders in the dining room. Oh my God, I'll never go there again!!

06/03/2026: A disgrace. We were treated badly from the moment we entered until we left. Ridiculous prices and endless rudeness. This is not how you treat people who come to bring you money!

03/09/2025: A coffee costs €2.50, as if we were at Punta Penia 🤭 100 meters away it costs less than half. A perfectly normal bar in the city, to be honest, is a bit shabby, served by an old lady who, with all the good will in my opinion, physically couldn't manage a bar like this, which is also quite large. If it were run by young and brilliant staff, it would be a completely different story. I spent about €14 for breakfast: a bombardino, two coffees, and two croissants.

15/08/2025: Rude staff with excessive prices (two bottles of water at the counter cost €2.40) and they refused to give us a receipt. Only after several requests and paying by credit card did they finally do so, calling us rude names. Don't go to this bar.

11/04/2026: BORDERLY LEGAL THEFT. The price list says "table service 15%," but the final bill is marked down to much more, with no explanation. A very clear example: a cappuccino costs €1.70 on the price list, but with 15% it should be €1.96, but on the receipt it appears to be €3.10. This is an increase of 82%, not 15%. It's not a mistake, it's an ambiguous and incorrect way of calculating, counting on people being in a hurry and not checking. Dishonest and borderline illegal behavior. Avoid this place! For 3 meals and 2 drinks: €23. Crazy. At first, there was no receipt. I had to ask for one. At that point, the lady disappeared for half an hour and then returned with a receipt with meaningless numbers.

04/04/2026: A cream croissant that reminds me that only we know how to do things well
