I migliori ristoranti in Messina

11/07/2026: Trattoria with a sea view in a cheerful and relaxing atmosphere, with very friendly and attentive staff. Fresh and tasty fish dishes. Both the albacore and the fried fish are excellent. The wine is also good! To finish, the Malvasia and biscuits are unmissable. Well done! We'll definitely be back!

11/07/2026: We had a great meal at a fair price, excellent service, and a charming location. Well done.

05/07/2026: Exceptional brioche and delicious granita, worth the reviews it has

03/07/2026: Coffee granita with plenty of cream and delicious brioche.

12/06/2026: The restaurant is welcoming and quaint, decorated in a modern style with a Sicilian touch. The food is truly excellent, featuring reinterpretations of traditional Messina dishes. The service is impeccable, from the welcome to the presentation of the dishes, and the kindness and courtesy of the staff. The dishes are gourmet with somewhat smaller portions, and the prices are high, but within the norm for this type of restaurant.

09/06/2026: We discovered Casa Putia and found ourselves experiencing something increasingly rare today: the pleasure of savoring the true flavors of Sicily, the authentic ones, prepared with respect, passion, and great skill. The atmosphere is refined and welcoming, with meticulous attention to detail, yet still exudes a warmth that makes you feel pampered and at home. The staff is knowledgeable, attentive, professional, and always discreetly present, helping to make the experience even more enjoyable. The culinary philosophy is evident from the entrée: small, delicious bites, elegantly and meticulously presented, where each element finds its own balance. A refined and delicate gastronomic offering, crafted using exclusively local products. The masterfully prepared sardines a beccafico are unforgettable, as are the swordfish rolls, which convey the full Sicilian seafood tradition with surprising lightness and finesse. The artisanal bread is also excellent, accompanied by a carefully selected, high-quality extra virgin olive oil. Casa Putia is more than just a restaurant: it's a place where Sicilian tradition is interpreted with contemporary sensibility, without ever losing its soul. We recommend this experience to anyone who wants to rediscover the island's most authentic flavors in an elegant and welcoming setting.

31/05/2026: I have never eaten such delicious pizzas in my life, and I have tasted many of them before. Thank you for the pleasure 🤗

22/02/2026: Highly recommended! The staff, location, and food are truly excellent, especially the pizza with its truly unique dough.

24/11/2025: A truly beautiful, well-designed venue with delicious food. These organized events were also very tasty, like the all-you-can-eat focaccia or the delicious charcuterie and cheese platter. The only flaw, if we can call it that, was the waitress, who was obviously in a hurry to clear the table, almost taking our plates away with food still on them. The rest of the staff, however, was very friendly and professional. I hope this review of mine can help them continue to improve their service.

22/11/2025: I highly recommend this place, delicious pizza, fair prices and friendly staff.

10/04/2026: Tonight we tried a sushi restaurant recommended by some friends... and what can I say: everything was impeccable! 🍣 From the quality of the fish, incredibly fresh, to the courtesy and attentiveness of the staff, to the master chef (originally Japanese!) who prepared true masterpieces before our eyes. A perfect experience in every way... in fact, even better than we expected!

01/06/2026: Unfortunately, I have to lower my average. Very slow service (it was crowded), appetizers took 45 minutes to arrive. Four of us dined separately, and the courses weren't served at the same time. The quality was good... too bad.

12/05/2026: Excellent pizza, both classic and unusual varieties. A real treat; the Diabolo was superb, and the one with anchovies and cream was particularly special. Highly recommended, with a fantastic view of the sunset and the Aeolian Islands.

29/06/2026: Fast and very friendly service, you can communicate not only in Italian, delicious coffee and cake to go with it. I highly recommend it.

20/04/2026: A very unique bistro, furnished with recycled objects, yet with careful attention to detail and good taste. We had a Palermo-style appetizer and a red prawn first course. The simplicity of the dish perfectly showcased the flavor of the incredibly fresh fish. Excellent value. I'll definitely be back.

09/03/2026: I had the pleasure of stopping at Pasticceria Terranova Francesco, and I can confirm that it's one of Messina's historic pastry shops. The quality of the desserts is truly high: excellent ingredients, artisanal preparation, and a deep respect for Sicilian tradition. Each product is balanced in flavor and carefully presented. The traditional specialties are excellent, always fresh and carefully prepared. The passion and experience of those working behind the counter are clearly evident. The service is courteous and the atmosphere is welcoming. A recommended stop for those seeking authentic artisanal pastry making in Messina.

02/01/2026: The best in Messina, everything excellent and, above all, delicious! If you want to make a good impression, you have to go to Francesco Terranova!

26/03/2026: A surprisingly positive experience, both in terms of the welcome and the authenticity of the products. Every detail is carefully considered by the chef and the entire staff. The wine list is extensive and refined. I would perhaps reconsider the selection of wines sold by the glass. Highly recommended. Reasonably priced.

06/03/2026: We arrived at a butcher's shop window, and behind it was the restaurant. The place was really nice and intimate. We received a very warm welcome from very friendly people. There, we were presented with a very wide selection of meats. The best part came with the main courses. The meat was excellent. We had a very pleasant time and a delicious meal.
