I migliori ristoranti in Messina

11/08/2025: A place you cannot miss if you’re in Taormina! The food is always amazing, you can’t go wrong no matter what you order. The owner, Daniele, is friendly and understanding and the staff are amazing. We come every time we are around. Definitely try Al Giardino!

09/08/2025: Big Bald man with the glasses who served us, very kind and good in English. Food was great. Only thing, I did not like was the wasps around the table :(((

02/08/2025: Excellents granités (les meilleurs) et glaces ! Les brioches sont servies chaudes Personnel sympathique tout est parfait La queue devant ne doit pas vous faire fuir c est assez rapide et l attente en vaut la peine !

01/08/2025: We visited later in the afternoon when the queue’s weren’t so bad. The staff are very efficient and we managed to get a table outside. The granitas we chose were beautiful, the brioche buns are big although we had one each, you could possibly share one between two. We also had two fantastic Aperol Spritz to accompany. A brilliant place to watch the world go by.

08/08/2025: Eccezionale a dir poco! Abbiamo preso sia dei gelati che dei cannoli. Anche la presentazione dei cannoli sui piatti era un opera d'arte! Ci ritorneremo di sicuro!

26/07/2025: Best granita in Messina, small but cozy place and excellent quality

01/08/2025: Beautiful hotel and location staff is great and friendly

22/07/2025: A corner of paradise, where elegance, nature, and hospitality blend in perfect harmony. Breathtaking views of the Aeolian Islands, refined rooms, an infinity pool, and gourmet cuisine showcasing Sicilian flavors make your stay a unique experience. Kudos to all the staff, especially Restaurant Manager Gabriel, who guides guests on their culinary journeys with professionalism and expertise.

17/08/2025: Good: pasta especially with raw prawns, location as it’s chilled square and view of the sea. Bad: waiter - seems you went for the cheap low quality over local Italian. Sleepy and uninterested and uninspiring. Parking options are BAD limoncello - they need to learn how to proper mix this Could consider returning only because of the pasta

14/08/2025: We ate here in August 2025 and we loved it! One pasta dish and one octopus dish. Friendly, clean, and reasonable prices. We'd love to go back! Thank you.

26/07/2025: Excellent service and very tasty food. I want to come back here more than once.

26/07/2025: It was absolutely magnificent and delicious

20/08/2025: The first courses are average, as is the quality/price ratio, and the setting is located in a square away from the traffic.

19/08/2025: A very good family pizzeria. Great service and a pleasant atmosphere. The best value for money in Milazzo. Friendly service.

16/06/2025: Italianicius da anni una garanzia, soprattutto per celiaci. Sempre attenti e disponibili, personale preparato e professionale, ottima la pinsa senza glutine! Sia gli hamburger al piatto che i taglieri di salumi e formaggi perfetti! Tappa fissa a Giardini Naxos per aperitivo o cena!

05/06/2025: Unfortunately, we had to wait a long time for a waiter, even though we were at one of the occupied tables. The food arrived before the drinks, which were unfortunately also forgotten. While serving the food, the waiter didn't notice that there were no drinks at the table, even though he was the one who took them.

31/07/2025: One of the most authentic and refined gastronomic experiences you can have in Salina has a precise name: Casa dello Schiavo. Nestled between the scents of the Mediterranean and the golden light of the Aeolian Islands, this restaurant is much more than just a place to eat: it is a temple of quality, flavor, and hospitality. The dishes are a celebration of nature and care. Each ingredient is selected with almost touching dedication: local aromatic herbs, the freshest fish, garden vegetables, and raw materials that speak of the land, sea, and culture of the island. Here, we don't cook: we compose. And each dish is a work of art that exudes respect for seasonality, balanced flavors, and a love of authentic simplicity. The menu is already carefully chosen, never boring, but the real treasure lies in the off-menu options, suggested directly by the owner: daily specials that change according to the catch and inspiration, dishes that seem to tell you a secret story of Salina and that it would be a mistake not to take advice from. Service is the heart of the restaurant. The owner himself oversees it, with rare kindness, natural elegance, and a passion that shines through in every word. He guides you through your choices like an expert friend would, without ever intruding, presenting each dish with respect and poetry, as if he were offering you a gift. The cleanliness is impeccable, and the details make the difference: from the choice of ceramics to the table layout, from the discreet music to the aromas in the room, every element is designed to offer a total wellness experience. You can sense a vision, a personal taste that makes everything cohesive and memorable. A personal tip: if you love cuisine that speaks softly but strikes the heart, one built on balance and sincerity, you can't miss this one. "Casa dello Schiavo" is not just any restaurant: it's a place of the soul, where every detail has meaning and every flavor leaves its mark. A must-see in Salina. You'll end your dinner with gratitude and the rare feeling of having experienced something profoundly authentic.

25/07/2025: Discovered by chance, this trattoria is simply exceptional! The lunch menu changes regularly. We received a warm welcome and were given excellent advice on the menu. We shared a tomato and mozzarella salad (the tomatoes are grown by the chef ;) and almond couscous. A true delight! Full of flavors and 100% local cuisine with fresh produce. The wine is also worth a visit!

15/08/2025: Welcoming and genuine! Let's start with the welcome, with a big smile and open arms despite the fact that it was sold out. It was very early, and we were greeted with our two children, reassured that "she"—the owner, a whirlwind of wisdom and gentle firmness—would take care of it. Many typical dishes, with authentic, locally sourced flavors, refined and traditional tastes. All topped with pleasant, respectful chatter and smiles. The kids loved the potato frittata, the cutlet, and the breaded zucchini! We loved everything else, from caponata to sardines a beccafico, eggplants cooked in every way, and delicious couscous! Not to mention the traditional salad, which took me back in time and reminded me of my grandfather's: onions, cucumbers, tomatoes, and marjoram (I think... but every town has its own!) At a certain point, we said enough... but we could have continued! We concluded this fantastic journey of flavors with a PHENOMENAL homemade hazelnut gelato! The atmosphere is homey and very welcoming, full of details, each one seeming to tell a story. Highly recommended! Don't pass through Roccalumera and the surrounding area without stopping here!

12/08/2025: This little place is a treasure trove of deliciousness. We stumbled upon it by chance, but we highly recommend it as an unmissable opportunity to sample authentic delicacies. The owner is incredibly kind and genuinely hospitable. A word of advice: eat only a little at the previous meal, because you'll certainly have to give up something and you'll regret it.

20/08/2025: Truly exceptional appetizers and main courses. If you're in the area, you absolutely must stop here. The staff is also friendly and the place is clean. We were really pleased with the service.

17/08/2025: Fabulous food, simple dishes but truly well-made.... With love! Very kind staff, truly beautiful place. I recommend everyone to come and eat here. We were at the Alcantara Gorges and the trattoria is very close. But I think it's worth coming here even just for the good food.... There's also a swimming pool with sun loungers and deck chairs.... Excellent value for money. Tooooop.

02/08/2025: If you're passing through Messina, you absolutely must stop at this historic café, where you can enjoy a classic Sicilian breakfast with granita and brioche, or a classic croissant. Everything is delicious, fresh, and high-quality. And surprisingly, the prices are incredibly fair.

28/07/2025: Fabulous granitas, top quality-price ratio.

30/08/2025: Spaghetti good, atmosphere pleasant. Appetizer in the form of pastries average and nothing special.

30/08/2025: Excellent restaurant. Great service, top quality food at reasonable prices. Waiter Davide was really friendly. He has a start up vineyard in Castelmola and we tried a bottle of his Vigna Georgina N AREA C.da Luppineria. Very good wine! Highly recommend this restaurant, you won’t be disappointed.

15/08/2025: Worst service I've ever experienced. If you're a tourist, don't go or get takeaway...

15/08/2025: Best pizza in Naxos, very delicious in a nice outdoor seating! Pizza Burata is highly recommended.

29/07/2025: I don’t even know where to begin. If I could give 50 stars, I would. Just book this hotel — you won’t regret it. I did extensive research, and for the price, it’s truly the best option. Yes, it’s on the expensive side, but in Taormina, many hotels are even more costly. This is a real 5-star experience — and it feels like it. From the service to the rooms, the staff’s kindness, the quality, and the location — nothing compares to Atlantis Bay. We had booked a standard queen room but were upgraded to a suite for our anniversary. What a thoughtful gesture. I’m writing this from our bed, with just 48 hours left, and I already don’t want to leave. I feel genuinely sad to go. I’ve traveled all over Italy, and I can confidently say this is the best hotel we’ve stayed in so far. We’ll definitely be back. They made our experience magical. The attention to detail is impeccable. What an unforgettable vacation!

28/07/2025: ATLANTIS BAY IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! THE ACCOMODATIONS AND STAFF WERE AWESOME. IT FELT LIKE AN ALL-INCLUSIVE THE ENTIRE TIME. EVERYONE WAS SO FRIENDLY AND ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP. YOU CAN TAXI INTO TOWN FOR 25 EUROS OR RIDE THE GONDOLA UP, VERY CLOSE BY. I APPRECIATED THE OPTION TO TIP THE STAFF WHEN CHECKING OUT BECAUSE I WANTED TO TIP EVERYONE, BUT THAT WAS DIFFICULT. WE WILL BE BACK, A MUST STAY!
