I migliori ristoranti in Messina

01/01/2026: A memorable December 31st: we ate outside even though it was raining, warmed by blankets, the fire, and above all by the attentive staff who pampered us until the very end. Jacqueline was an excellent hostess.

21/12/2025: What an experience ! Fantastic apetizer (sardinas fried to perfection with a simple home made mayonaise) and ensalata de bacalao with grapefruit and olives. My taste sense just exploded. Luckily there was a glass of the finest sauvignon to help getting back to earth 🙈😇. Delicious it was. Thank you very much.

05/11/2025: Amazing place and selicious food

05/11/2025: Had a lovely meal here. Delicious seafood pasta. Service was excellent. I had a server named Andrea, and they brought a little limoncello on the house. Would return!

07/03/2026: Gelato flavors tasted very artificial. Wasnt impressed. Also the service was quite rude.

11/01/2026: You can try many interesting pistachio desserts here.

01/12/2025: Average, I tried the paccheri with swordfish and the mussel soup, good value for money, generous portions

26/11/2025: Best restaurant in Taormina, a real treat even for me, who doesn't eat dairy.

07/03/2026: Macro and Richard are wonderful hosts and the food was great. Highly recommended 👌

02/03/2026: Excellent homemade, freshly prepared food, helpful and smiling staff, great prices. We recommend this place to anyone in the area.

05/03/2026: Very nice place. Good pizzas of various types to suit all tastes. Prices are a little high, but you can take advantage of various offers throughout the week.

28/02/2026: The little houses are beautiful, the pizza light and tasty, the attention to detail is meticulous, and the staff is extremely helpful. Thank you so much.

05/01/2026: It's been years since I've had lunch at a trattoria. The food and staff are exquisite, especially for those who aren't privy to luxury and are looking for local, authentic, home-cooked food. The dining room is a bit cramped, but that's what trattorias are all about. I promised myself I'd return!

07/12/2025: I visited Tratoria Rapisardi yesterday. It has a wonderful family atmosphere. The young owner is a fantastic guy.

17/11/2025: I had dinner at 3 Quarti in Taormina and was truly won over: a restaurant that works with integrity, taste, and great attention to detail. I started with a beef tartare: precisely cut, fresh meat, and just the right amount of seasoning, with a salad, cherry tomatoes, and cream that complement the dish without overpowering its flavor. For my second course, I had a meat dish with potatoes and green beans: perfectly cooked, the meat tender on the inside and beautifully browned on the outside, resting on a creamy potato base; the crispy green beans add balance and lightness. You can sense the chef's touch, attentive to the ingredients and the cooking process: linear, focused, flawless dishes. Exceptional service, relaxed atmosphere. In conclusion, 3 Quarti is a restaurant I would recommend without hesitation to anyone seeking refined, authentic cuisine in Taormina.

15/11/2025: After a week in Sicily, I’ve come to think Italian food is massively overrated. HOWEVER, this place was amazing. Every dish slapped. Wines slapped. Dessert — boom. Dad and daughter serving tables — heartwarming. Honestly wish I’d come back here

01/11/2025: Nice people and service. Delicious food and desserts. Thank you

27/10/2025: Chance stop for lunch. Pizza square for lunch . Amazing. Brown dough with hand picked olives personally preserved by the owner. Best pizza I have had in Italy. Great cappuccino (no long life milk at this cafe) Friendly owner who suggested the almond granita with pistachio gelato. Perfect combination and so good. We even had a second cappuccino with the dessert. Thanks for such a kind welcome and a wonderful experience. Best culinary surprise of our trip.

27/11/2025: I cant leave review on their food as the restaurant was closed, the resturant hasn't bothered to update their Google operating hours.. we have travelled from Taormina thinking to check the beautiful view enjoy good after, but we were left disappointed. We understand that it is off season times ( end of Nov 2025) but at least they should have made an update as there are still people travelling.

25/11/2025: A must! stunning location, homemade authentic Italian 🇮🇹 food - don’t hesitate! best food on that rock 💫

04/10/2025: A refined and comfortable atmosphere, a wide selection of menu options, excellent meat and pizza, impeccable service, a must-try in the city.

13/09/2025: Fantastic location, excellent food, fresh and well-proportioned ingredients.

25/01/2026: Excellent pizzeria, warm atmosphere and excellent service.

24/12/2025: In the summer I advise you to reserve a table in advance. And the quality of the pizza is unpredictable anyway. I took it home, one was warm, and the other was completely cold and the middle was completely burnt. Only the edges were left to eat 🙄.

29/10/2025: Excellent hamburger and a great atmosphere! The service was impeccable, with the typical Italian smiles and friendliness! Thank you!

27/10/2025: Excellent food, very good fries with their three sauces. Also their burgers. The service was very good, too, the staff were very friendly.

04/01/2026: Excellent place, welcoming and excellent food, we ate truly excellent meat.

04/01/2026: I'm sorry, but this place is definitely one to avoid. Interminable waits for a sandwich that arrived after more than half an hour, cold and inedible. The waiters are inattentive to the customer's needs and forget about you even if you ask for something two seconds before. I noticed I wasn't the only table in the dining room with complaints. The only pro of this place is its very central location, but as far as the food and service go, it's best to skip it and look elsewhere.

07/03/2026: I can't comment...the website says it opens at 6:30 a.m. At 6:55, the shutters were still halfway up, with about ten customers waiting outside, and us, who'd missed the 6:40 ferry to have breakfast there. We left a little annoyed, and because we didn't want to miss the next ferry.

17/02/2026: Very crowded but because they are really good, the granitas are amazing
