I migliori ristoranti in Messina

07/11/2025: The food is very reasonably priced and also very good (we recommend ordering the pizzas). The staff are lovely and the views are incredible.

23/09/2025: The pasta or primo piatto is unparalleled, full of flavor, exquisite. The second course, to be honest, didn't live up to what we'd already eaten. The dessert was very tasty, and the service was nothing special.

21/10/2025: For me, the island of Stromboli is incredibly interesting. Swimming on the pleasant black sand in the warm sea (early October) with the volcano in the background made a strong impression on me. The town of Stromboli is unique, with narrow, walled streets, along which Piaggio tricycles travel at high speeds – both for goods and passengers. The lack of cars is a charm. From the volcano's viewpoint (290 meters above sea level), you can also catch a beautiful sunset.

30/09/2025: Absolutely enchanting and romantic location. The food was okay, but the location is included in the price, so expect to pay a lot more than in Sicily.

14/08/2025: CIS hasn't found this place yet, but here are simply the best burgers I've tried in Italy🙏🏼 use it, chmoshniks

05/08/2025: The food was nothing special, but the cocktails were out of this world.

01/11/2025: Hardly any Germans. Lots of Italian families. Clear water and a beautiful view of the Aeolian Islands.

19/10/2025: A very colorful and delicious place! Super staff! 10/10!

04/11/2025: Il Barcaiolo è un'incantevole ristorante immerso in un paesaggio molto particolare, si potrebbe dire quasi un delizioso "nascondiglio" armonioso tra mare e montagna.La sublime qualità del pesce, gli ottimi antipasti, la bontà dei primi e la genuinità delle pietanze vi stupirà piacevolmente!Il tutto "condito" da un servizio impeccabile: personale attento e davvero gentilissimo.Lo consiglio a tutti, credetemi sarà un'esperienza indimenticabile!

26/10/2025: Enchanting location, super-fresh fish of excellent quality. Fabulous presentation. Impeccable service. Highly recommended for those looking for a romantic evening that will also pamper your taste buds ❣️

22/09/2025: Good service, good food, good restaurant.

18/09/2025: Chosen by chance for lunch, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the dishes and their freshness. Friendly welcome, tables on the terrace, impeccable sanitary facilities and excellent value for money. We returned the next day and the pleasure was the same. We recommend this restaurant with a small menu but quality products.

28/10/2025: Lately, they've been making practically empty pidoni, large to look at but barely seasoned inside. At €3.50, it seems way too much. This evening, we all had seven, including one with Nutella, and they were almost empty. A real shame.

28/08/2025: The pitoni are really delicious, but be careful, order in advance otherwise you will have to wait a long time.

10/11/2025: We stopped for lunch by chance, it was a great decision

15/10/2025: A delicious dinner at the restaurant. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The ambiance was lovely, and the staff was friendly and very accommodating.

10/09/2025: I did well to trust the positive reviews, excellent experience 👌

08/09/2025: Ruined evening. As soon as my wife and I arrived, we saw a quiet and relaxing atmosphere; we had chosen based on the reviews. We ordered mussels at 8:30 PM, and they arrived almost immediately and were delicious. The two plates of squid in sauce we ordered only arrived at 10:45 PM, which, despite the wait, had given us pause for thought, as it would have meant they were preparing them on the spot. But reality shattered any belief, as they were cold on the outside and the filling inside was frozen. We sent them to be reheated, but they were inedible due to the sour tomato sauce. The waitress tried to apologize, but to no avail. She said the cook blamed the sauce for being too acidic, forgetting that even bottled sauce can be adjusted for acidity. We didn't order anything else. Two and a half hours for two dishes, and paid 50 euros for two people, without wine. Highly not recommended!!!

14/09/2025: The view, the attention to detail, the freshest fish, and the professionalism of the staff all contributed to an excellent evening. I highly recommend pairing the dishes with a mandarin beer—everything was perfect.

28/08/2025: Elegant, romantic, simply beautiful. The owner was very kind, the food was excellent, plentiful, and the fish was incredibly fresh. See you soon!

28/10/2025: Excellent selection of vegan dishes, friendly staff who make you feel at ease.

16/09/2025: Great location and highly recommended! Good food and drinks, friendly staff. We will definitely come back again!

26/10/2025: Reference point for meeting and getting together

12/10/2025: A nice cafe near the highway entrance. Good pastries, pasta, and lunch specials are also available. There's also a large selection of Sicilian souvenirs and decorations.

15/10/2025: There's parking, quality products, and fast service. Friendly staff. One of the best places in the area.

05/08/2025: Welcoming and friendly staff. The venue's modern look makes it ideal for after-hours aperitifs. Especially recommended for aperitifs with live music.

05/10/2025: It used to be such a nice place - not anymore! The lady was very rude and started shouting that we wanted to sit at an empty table without asking. Also, they used to serve very nice limoncello spritz but now they refused to serve drinks only. It all could have been explained in a nice way but being rude is unacceptable. Reply to the owners reply - that’s how it should have been sorted but sadly it wasn’t - we have not encountered more rude service in the whole of Sicily. We tried to be friendly and polite but the first words we heard from her were: No! Leave now! If you don’t like tourists, don’t be in this business.

05/10/2025: Heard about this place so went to check it out while in Taormina. Was really disappointed by hospitality of the staff and the quality of the food.

25/05/2025: A truly one-of-a-kind venue! The atmosphere is evocative and meticulously crafted, perfect for a special evening. The cocktails are true works of art, the result of a deep knowledge of mixology and surprising creativity. The staff is welcoming, professional and always ready to recommend the drink best suited to your tastes. An unforgettable sensory experience that I highly recommend to anyone in the area.
