I migliori ristoranti in Messina

07/12/2025: If you want to enjoy a good coffee and excellent pastries, this is the place for you.

19/10/2025: Excellent desserts, friendly staff

26/10/2025: Everything was excellent, the appetizers were truly delicious, the first courses were homemade and delicious. The location is spectacular, surrounded by greenery, and the building is entirely made of wood and stone!

30/09/2025: Beautiful location, surrounded by untouched nature. The staff is very friendly. The dishes are excellent, and you can taste the freshness of the ingredients and typical local products. I highly recommend it!

28/01/2026: I tried your Neapolitan biscuits through Appa Messina and was pleasantly surprised: fragrant, tasty, and truly irresistible. One taste leads to another! I wanted to ask if you ship, because I'm from Turin and would love to order and try many of your other products. ❤️ Thank you.

22/12/2025: Wonderful cannoli, two years ago they gave them to me for Christmas, this year I had them brought back 😋, unique. You are great.

09/02/2026: Very good restaurant, with a magnificent view, very fresh ingredients... a slightly excessive price but the view comes at a price too... and you sometimes have to put up with noisy neighbors (Italians).

18/01/2026: Very tasty food, fast service and a beautiful view!

07/04/2026: The food is terrible. When we ordered sandwiches, we only received bread.

07/04/2026: Don't order sandwiches. The amount of ingredients in them is very small. I don't know how they are not embarrassed to serve such food.

09/11/2025: We’ve been all around Italy and have never had a bad meal until tonight. Terrible pizza, tasteless crust and toppings. Had the Seabass supposedly encrusted with almonds….. horrible as well. I saw someone at another table barely eat their pizza as well. Don’t go here.

07/11/2025: We had our first lunch of our 2 week Italy trip here. We loved the Margherita and pesto pizzas. My husband also got the gnocchi, which he loved. Cute outdoor spot for lunch, would recommend.

15/03/2026: The pizza is good, but the outdated menu spoils the impression. I don't have much to say about the pizza itself, it wasn't bad. But I have to recommend the owners to check the menu they have on site - it doesn't match what they have on Google Maps at all. In such a tourist area as Taormina, it should be correct, because I chose my food in advance based on the internet and everything was different on site. I was also a little annoyed that the pizza came already sliced. I understand that it's a modern concession to tourists, but in Italy you still expect the classic tradition in its entirety. Overall, pretty average, but with better service and up-to-date information it would be much better. Good pizzas, but menu needs to be updated. The pizza in itself wasn't bad, but there are some aspects that need to be improved, especially in a touristic location like Taormina. The physical menu on site doesn't correspond at all to what was on Google Maps; it's a shame, because I chose what to order based on the online photos and then I had to change my mind. In addition, the pizza is already delivered: I understand that it is a comfort for tourists, I prefer the Italian tradition of the entire pizza. Nel complesso un'esperienza discreta, ma con più attenzione ai dettagli sarebbe molto meglio.

13/03/2026: The pizzeria is in a stunning location in Taormina, with a view of Mount Etna. There's plenty of seating both inside and out. The menu leaves nothing to be desired. I ate the best pizza of my life here (tuna and onion). If you know this place, you won't need to look anywhere else.

07/09/2025: Nice place, excellent food, and good service. The wine list offers an excellent selection. A place you'll gladly return to.

19/08/2025: This place embodied what keeps Sicily from standing out above all others. A dinner for vacationers with a craving for meat. Five of us show up and are seated at a table inside, which I'm forced to appreciate, despite the heat and the mere presence of fans, since everywhere outside, people are still allowed to smoke rudely in front of those eating. People need to be legally obligated; respect and civic duty are nonexistent. Luckily, we were first to arrive, even though it was 8:00 PM. So, no delays with service. We skipped the first courses, ordering three appetizers to share and five second courses: fillets, tagliata, veal cheek, as well as a good 2017 Sicilian wine. All excellent. What's the flaw? The side dish for the two beef fillets, as per the menu, was "ash-fried potatoes"; the other three second courses included mashed potatoes. When the dishes arrived, they all contained mashed potatoes. Naturally, we prefer to eat hot, but as soon as one of the staff approaches, I ask why the side dish was changed from the menu, adding with a smile, "Maybe the chef didn't feel like making the potatoes à la citron." Unless I misunderstood, I was told the chef was on vacation and was handed the menu so I could verify what I was already sure of. Nothing more. I don't apologize for the forced change, but at least offer a half-word to justify it. Nothing at all. At the end of the dinner, I ask another woman in the dining room about it, who tells me they had a reception at lunch that messed everything up. End of excuse... But can you? If I order a pizza with chopped cherry tomatoes, can you just bring it to me with the sauce and not care? It's still tomato, right? What was the point of coming to the table before the dishes arrived and saying a few words about it? Who would have objected? Oh well, in Sicily, simmu cussi! I pay the bill, after pointing out the extra glass of wine I'd ordered before opting for the bottle, which is promptly deducted. I thank them for the excellent meat (not the side dish), say goodbye, and leave. Nothing is missing from achieving excellence. Except, perhaps, it doesn't matter. And as a native of the island, that's precisely what bothers me.

04/09/2025: Nice little place but off the main lane. Coperto is 3E pp so all in all very good prices considering the location. Loved the pizza and free limoncello.

03/09/2025: Spectacular!!!!! Cozy, intimate, great food, wonderful atmosphere, friendly and attentive service, great playlist... Highly recommend.

20/12/2025: 10+++ overall congratulations 👏

16/12/2025: I'll be brief... an hour and a half to order and another hour to bring me the food... obviously I went to ask what happened to my burgers, they told me they couldn't find a table... price too high for the quality of the food and service.

28/12/2025: Homemade and very tasty food. A quaint and welcoming place. Generous portions and friendly service. Excellent value for money.

22/12/2025: we had a great experience once we were in Montalbano, In fact we came here twice. They have nice food and especially vegetarian options, that around this area is a bit difficult to find. The staff is kind and friendly as the owner. The bathroom also are super clean that is something very important. We definitely recommend it. There was also a Karaoke night that was very nice! Grazie ritorneremo!

16/03/2026: The restaurant is excellent, the chef's dishes are excellent, and the service is very good. A word of caution: the restrooms require you to go down some unprotected stairs downstairs. Furthermore, the bathrooms aren't up to par with the restaurant.

08/03/2026: We had a tasting dinner and chose the fish option (Menu Mare & Aria). The price was €130 per person, and we were served 6 courses. I’m not really a “fish person”, but the flavors truly surprised and delighted me. At the same time, some of the combinations were quite… interesting 😄 The service was 12 out of 10. I have honestly never experienced service like this before, so it really impressed me. Overall, I would rate the experience 8.5 out of 10. It’s definitely worth trying and enjoying this kind of carefully created luxury 💚 Thank you!

04/04/2026: For lunch, we had a truly unique dish of fresh spaghetti with clams and an excellent wine they recommended. We recommend the cannoli for dessert, truly exceptional and made entirely by them. The service and food were top-notch. We were very satisfied with our lunch.

23/10/2025: Disappointingly, after they told me I could sit down, I asked for two chairs for the little ones and they explicitly told me no, it's not possible and they escorted us out.

20/02/2026: Really delicious food and very kind owner! I had a vegan bowl and it was very delicious and very filling. And the cheesecake (coconut and blueberry) was simply amazing. They have a daily menu to choose from. The people working there were really kind. Absolutely recommend eating there!

06/02/2026: We walked for half an hour to find a CLOSED FOR HOLIDAY sign, while Google said OPEN. Be sure to update your Google details.

03/11/2025: A wonderful experience! Although it doesn't look like much from the outside, we were attracted by the good reviews and the location very close to our accommodation. The pizza is very good and the prices are more than decent. Only the seafood pizza is 18 euros, most pizzas are between 7 and 12 euros. The pictures speak for themselves! Cover 2.5 euros / person.

26/10/2025: We stopped for dinner and all ordered pizza, delicious, thick and soft, and made with quality ingredients. Really good prices. The atmosphere is family-friendly and the staff are friendly. They offered us a truly bitter amaro, not for everyone but definitely worth a try, and a truly delicious Sicilian cannoli-flavored cream liqueur. Highly recommended.
