I migliori ristoranti in Messina

12/01/2026: Wonderful place, original sandwiches, friendly and helpful service... buy the T-shirt...

24/08/2025: Really good. The sandwiches are 500g each, so I recommend getting one for two people. The sandwiches are made with excellent quality ingredients and are nice and filling. The staff is very young and friendly.

03/03/2026: Exceptional pizza! 5 well-deserved stars.

24/12/2025: Delicious food and service. The owner and staff are attentive and incredibly friendly. Today there was a variety of antipasti, delicious fish, and to finish, lots of desserts, each accompanied by a little story. Tomorrow I'll be back for pizza when the wood-fired oven is lit. Highly recommended!

17/01/2026: I tried the pizzas of the great Professional/Champion: Carmelo Guarnera and was truly blown away by the exceptional quality. He's a great person and a true connoisseur of the ingredients, and you can tell from the first bite. As a Food & Beverage Expert, I can vouch for and recommend him 100%, and I'll definitely be back soon.

16/11/2025: Pizzeria open late at night. The pizza is unpretentious, simple but not exceptional. Excellent value.

25/09/2025: Delicious and affordable, with a great ocean view. The staff, though they don't speak English, are very friendly. Highly recommended! A true Chinese person who doesn't lie to other Chinese people.

08/09/2025: Beautiful place right on the beach. Service a little slow, but probably because it's the end of the season. Pizza was so-so, a little undercooked.

13/10/2025: A splendid location on the Sant'Agata Militello seafront, the beautifully appointed interior dining room reaches its peak beauty in the summer months, with its garden and swimming pool offering a splendid view of the Aeolian Islands and fairytale sunsets. We've been here several times, for lunch, dinner, and even for our wedding ceremony. On each occasion, the food has been impeccable, thanks to the mastery of Chef Biagio and his staff, both in preparation and presentation, and with beautifully balanced flavors. The owner, Carmela, is excellent, always attentive to detail and the service is attentive and courteous. The price is absolutely in line with the offerings. Highly recommended.

12/10/2025: Wonderful location, impeccable service, everyone was friendly and kind, especially Mrs. Carmela who satisfied us in everything.

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!!!

29/08/2025: Uncomfortable and above all the people who go there create a terrible atmosphere

23/08/2025: Historic bar in Barcelona. Coffee and cream granita and very good brioche.

23/08/2025: The Jeep guy owes me an apology. Last night I was abused for leaving my car in the unloading lane, which has a 12-hour time limit. From 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, I parked after 9:30 PM, and the guy thinks he owns the road. You couldn't unload the drinks in 12 hours? And you attacked us, saying you shouldn't park there and using foul language. Last night was my son's birthday, and you got us off to a bad start. I'm very careful when I park, and there were no handicapped spots. If there had been, I would have parked there. You weren't right, even though my children and I had to put up with your bad temper. The most rational thing would have been to admit your mistake and apologize.

19/08/2025: Ask for Maria Francesco Cotugno. Mr. Drink🍹 best place in the area!

29/03/2026: We got a table outside on the sunny terrace. The staff was courteous and friendly, but also very busy and in a hurry. The table was cleared rather carelessly, leaving the used ashtray and wine cooler behind. The food arrived quickly, but it wasn't what I had ordered. The language barrier was probably the problem, but I showed them a picture of the dish from their menu. The food was basically okay and recommendable if you're eating in this area. We were very pleased to receive a complimentary espresso and several other small items, as you can see in the picture. Thank you!

15/03/2026: AVOID! THEY SAY THERE'S A FIXED MENU. IT'S A SHAME THAT SOME TABLES HAD BETTER FOOD THAN OURS. THERE'S NOTHING FIXED AT ALL. EVEN THOUGH I ASKED THE REASON, THE OWNER WAS COMPLETELY GRUMPY IN FRONT OF ALL THE OTHER CUSTOMERS. FOR €45 PER PERSON, GO ELSEWHERE, YOU'LL FIND MUCH BETTER.

15/10/2025: The house dessert is excellent!!!

19/09/2025: The cocktails were watered down, the bruschetta bread was dry, and the ingredients were of poor quality.

29/10/2025: What a delight. Appetizers, first courses, roast meats like mutton, buinissimi, and fresh fries—it's like lunch at grandma's house. The owner and staff are very kind and courteous.

19/10/2025: I had to stop by by chance. The place is definitely not touristy (I understood from the local views). But the atmosphere is really nice, the food is good :)

13/09/2025: I was drawn in by the reviews, but... No kidding! The place is very old, very dirty, perhaps not renovated in 40 years, with terrible decor. The bathroom is shameful, all broken and dirty. I can't even imagine the food. The prices are low, but the food isn't up to par. The only decent thing is the pizza. We ordered a kind of tagliata served 1980s-style with a balsamic vinegar glaze in a zigzag pattern. It was old, tasteless, and stringy, and cost 14 euros! The mixed grill was decent, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone! I'm sorry, places like this should just close down in 2025.

22/11/2025: The "Grigliata" pizza was delicious, with fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. I'll be back with great pleasure.

21/11/2025: One of the best pizza in messina. Highly recommend it!

20/08/2025: The granita and gelato taste sublime. Flavors and tastes evoke authenticity...not to mention the extremely friendly staff. Excellent location. Kudos to the entire staff.

16/08/2025: Excellent bar in Castell' Umberto. The granitas are very good, also served at breakfast.
