I migliori ristoranti in Messina

14/11/2025: The best pizza in Sicily, hands down. Top-quality ingredients. Friendly staff. Unbeatable value for money. Definitely worth returning!

13/11/2025: There isn't a better pizza in the entire province of Messina (and beyond), I've tried ALL of them, all the flavors... every time it's a dilemma deciding which one to choose... but I recommend the Segreto di Ape Nera... try it... and prepare yourself... it's addictive. Ps. I'm attaching some of my favorite pizzas...

17/10/2025: Excellent bar before sealing to the Eolian Island. The granita is a must. You have to eat it. This is the typical sicilian breakfast. Try any flavours, they are all good. The place is a bit chaotic; therefore, I advise you to not wait your turn before ordering. The best solution is to approach the bar and ask.

15/10/2025: Stopped here before taking a ferry. Had a good coffee and cold draught beers (they have lots of beverages available). They have loads of sweet and savoury pastries on show, perfect portable food to takeaway if you don’t have time to eat. It’s also easy to point to items should you not speak Italian! We sat outside (so menu costs a tiny bit more for table service) as was nice to sit and room for suitcases. Really lovely waitress, appreciated her good English. I liked the retro interior, please never change it :) Lots of Italians drinking at the bar so must be good coffee. The perfect pit stop.

14/08/2025: It was a great restaurant. Beautiful food and view and wine! Recommend highly! Thank you!!

14/08/2025: We chose this restaurant at random, based on the menu found online and the reviews, and I must say we made the right choice... a wonderful terrace with a breathtaking view, top-quality food, and excellent service. All in a quiet atmosphere, with good background music and no intrusiveness. Highly recommended!

18/10/2025: The best pizza we've ever eaten.

30/09/2025: Welcoming staff, prices below the average for the area, we tried the burgers and were satisfied with both the quantity of the dish and the taste!

30/08/2025: The best granita I've ever eaten!

19/07/2025: Granita according to the best Letojannese tradition.

17/09/2025: A pleasant resort with a spa. Spacious rooms and an on-site restaurant. The only downside is the lack of event planning (weddings and banquets), which clashes with the typical relaxation the average guest seeks in this type of place. Breakfast is plentiful and varied.

15/09/2025: Decent place. Absolutely unqualified staff. Ridiculous wellness center. The only positive note was the evening dinner and the waiter, Mr. Franco (a delightful person).

17/09/2025: Fast but inefficient service. Terrible poke (there was no raw salmon/tuna) with frozen shrimp, brown avocado, and tasteless wakame. The Japanese mayo was actually regular mayo. The rice was soggy. Other quality products, but the poke was inedible.

14/09/2025: The food was very good! The staff was excellent.

30/08/2025: A beautiful place with exquisite desserts, in my opinion and that of my family, the best in Messina, undoubtedly the result of care and attention to Sicilian tradition. Extremely friendly staff. A gem on Corso Cavour. Highly recommended.

18/08/2025: Just wow........ The pastries look and taste great There is a large selection of freshly baked treats, pastries and cakes There are a few small tables where you can sit, we had a coffee there and a selection of freshly baked pastries. It was a busy spot with a constant stream of customers coming in. The staff were really friendly and helpful Probably best to get there early and avoid the rush. Would definitely go back there, if ever in Sicily again

22/10/2025: Friendly and welcoming service. Delicious salad and burger!

07/10/2025: The management is young and very inviting. Very friendly staff Fantastic Messina-style chops No complaints. Definitely worth a visit and enjoying the food.

16/09/2025: Family restaurant. Hearty and delicious dishes. Great atmosphere

05/09/2025: Exceptional service, considering it's midweek at the end of August in a remote village in the Peloritani. Good traditional cuisine at a fair price.

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!

17/10/2025: As fresh as it gets. Amazing food, beautiful location

21/09/2025: Congratulations to Giorgia for her immense availability throughout our stay and to all the staff, including the cleaning staff.

19/09/2025: Hotel overlooking the sea... we stayed in this splendid hotel on September 25th and the feeling, from the room, was that of being on a cruise ship with a 180-degree view of the waves. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful. The rooms were impeccably clean. The breakfasts and meals at the partner restaurant "Nino sul Mare," located a few steps from the hotel, were also excellent. The pizzeria with a terrace directly below the hotel makes delicious pizzas; you absolutely must try the pizza with figs, prosciutto crudo, and spicy pistils... a delight! A special thanks to Giorgia, who, with her professionalism and kindness, made our stay even more pleasant and comfortable. Highly recommended!!!!

07/09/2025: Excellent gastronomy and butcher shop

15/07/2025: Quality delicatessen, excellent butcher, very good delicatessen with various tasty dishes, certainly not cheap.

23/09/2025: We were sitting on the beach in front of the restaurant. The smell of food made us hungry. I then found cozze (mussels) on the menu. The portion was a generous €15. I've never tasted better. Slightly spicy, with garlic, tomato, and white wine. Coperto was €1.50. The cozze is a dream. Good service with a sea view. Moretti draft beer is too expensive at €6 (0.4l).

22/09/2025: Lack of transparency... a well-kept beach in an excellent location... but what we consumers cannot and will not forgive is the lack of transparency and the unclear information regarding prices for admission, sunbeds, umbrellas, etc.

17/08/2025: The location is truly beautiful and well-kept: it's a real shame to find the weather bad on August 15th and not eat outside. The fish is fresh, certainly well-frozen and of high quality, but it's prepared without imagination, without that special something that makes you remember it. With two bottles of wine, appetizers, and a first course, we spent €50 per person (considering we had three small children). Dessert needs rethinking: the flans are fine, but the crème brulee and freshly defrosted cheesecake aren't up to par with the place, and especially the bill. The service is truly lame (missing menus, endless waits for dessert, lack of coordination, sloppiness). There's no parking: you have to park in the middle of the street. I don't think we'll be back.

07/08/2025: Excellent food and friendly staff.
