I migliori ristoranti in Messina

05/09/2025: If you sit at the table, be patient even if there aren't many people there.

02/09/2025: The sea-view terrace is nice, but the quality of the products is poor, and the prices are very high for the quality of the products and service. The owners always seem angry and don't know how to welcome customers. The place is a no-go.

28/09/2025: Bad frozen pizza, prices comparable to other restaurants in the area but much less good

04/09/2025: The dishes are good, but without presentation, it is unloaded onto the plate. The service is simple. Dessert from the freezer

12/09/2025: We ate some pizzas, which were inedible.

04/09/2025: The pizza is decent and the location is very nice, but all of this is overshadowed by the staff, which to call inadequate is an understatement.

06/10/2025: We arrived around 9:15 pm and were greeted very coldly, feeling like we were intruding. We couldn't get a menu: we were simply told that there were only a few glasses of wine, beer, or cocktails left. We ordered a beer and a glass of wine... the latter was clearly a leftover bottle with a deposit, charged at €10 per glass. There was no opportunity for a snack, and the waiter stayed behind the bar on his phone, apparently waiting for us to leave to join his friends in the neighboring restaurant. A truly disappointing experience, to be avoided.

21/08/2025: A disappointment! We asked for a yellow bubble and were presented with a 2017 with no other choice. Not suitable for our dinner. The fish selection was disappointing. The tuna was overcooked. The lemon sorbet was chemical.

04/10/2024: Spectacular point with breathtaking views, also reachable on foot from the port of Panarea, via a flat road that winds between the wonderful typical Aeolian white houses, covered in bougainvillea, ficus and prickly pears. The climb to the Milazzo tip allows you to enjoy from above the panorama of the nearby islands. Directly on the right and left of the tip are the beautiful dark beaches of Cala Junco and Cala Zimmari.

15/09/2024: Aperitivo con l’equipaggio della barca.. circa 12 persone. Locale con vista ok ma le sedute sono estremamente scomode (la metà era su un muretto dove non erano nemmeno forniti cuscini decorativi da usare). Ogni drink costa 20€, un po’ troppo. NEMMENO A CORTINA O A CORVARA IN BADIA! Dopo aver ordinato una dozzina di drink si sono presentati con due vassoi in croce con pietanze tutto sommato ok ma veramente scarse in termini di quantità. Rappresentata la questione, con immensa scortesia, ci hanno detto che la cucina stava chiudendo e che non c’era altro. Significava forse che ci stavano dando gli avanzi?? Boh! Ad ogni modo lo skipper è intervenuto parlando con un manager di sua conoscenza e voilà… sono arrivati altri vassoi! Infine non mi è parso che i wc fossero accessibili ai disabili in primis perchè dalla terrazza si devono scendere due piani di scale e poi non ho notato nè ascensori nè ringhiere attrezzate per favorire la discesa dei disabili.

05/10/2025: Very nice place with a view of the mouth of Lake Ganzirri, the place leaves a little to be desired, the staff is sparse in the dining room, we had pizza for lunch, I can say as a pizza chef, the dough was under-ripened, the crust was brown, indicating the presence of high sugars in the dough, the rising was backwards and I noticed it with the presence of a thread of dough on the edge, the cooking was very burned underneath and dirty from the presence of pieces of burnt wood. I'm sorry, it could have been a unique experience with the view like this, but it was just a disaster! I hope you improve with time!

30/09/2025: I'm putting one in the food because despite asking for an aperitif, they didn't bring us anything to eat. 8 euros for a spritz, nothing to eat, and I waited 30 minutes until I had to get up to ask for it. Beautiful view.

19/10/2025: Everything was great, especially the service...I especially appreciate Roberta and Noemi's kindness, professionalism, and courtesy! A business's success depends on the work of its employees!

06/10/2025: Terrible experience. I went with my family. I ordered hot ribs, and after a long wait, they arrived burned and inedible because they were so spicy, leaving them almost untouched. My mother had the beef bowl, and the rice was cold and bland, with six tiny pieces of meat on top, which were the only salvageable part of the dish. After reporting everything to the manager at the register, not a single cent was taken off our bill. An experience not to be repeated.

07/10/2025: Unbeatable coffee and fresh cream gelato. Also try the schiudono, still gelato but with something different. Definitely worth it. Artisans for three generations.

30/09/2025: We launched our Sicilian breakfast right here. Excellent granita and brioche, exquisite hospitality, and a truly friendly atmosphere. If you're in Messina, it's worth a stop!

05/04/2025: A wonderful place, warm environment, kind staff, I fully recommend

29/03/2025: The six of us paid €50 each (€300 total) for a basic meal of average quality, with less than excellent service. We even included a burger in our bill, which we neither ordered nor ate (which, of course, was removed from the bill after our observation). This is absolutely not a place that could afford such a high price. I'll never dine here again.

17/09/2025: Popped in here for a drink after a nighttime boat trip to see Stromboli volcano. 🌋 It closes not long after 21:30 and the staff started to clear tables and removing seat cushions and gestured to us to drink up! I don't know why we were served when it was so close to closing time! Nice decorative tables.

10/09/2025: On the most beautiful terrace, there are only old pizza slices. Stromboli, that's what...

29/09/2025: An authentic restaurant in a quiet alley. Delicious food and friendly, attentive staff. +++

19/08/2025: Shame on you: due to a mistake by the kitchen and the service staff, a 7-year-old girl's spaghetti arrived after an hour. It was overcooked and full of broken shells. Not even a €1 discount or a free limoncello.

16/10/2025: loved the etna tasting! perfect location.

15/10/2025: A restaurant with traditions ❤️❤️ Delicious fresh fish and tuna tartare The tiramisu was amazing The service was great 😻

15/10/2025: Extremely expensive, be warned. Two non-alcoholic aperitifs, served in two tiny glasses, and a "stand" with banal peanuts, pretzels, and crisps, came to a whopping 13 euros—something I'd pay around 8 euros for elsewhere. In Calabria, for 13 euros after an aperitif, you can easily skip the dinner they serve you. Be careful not to push it too far!

07/09/2025: Welcoming place with great attention to detail.

16/08/2025: Elegant place, friendly staff, and delicious pizza. Must try!!!

21/07/2025: Pizzeria in a slightly dated old house, probably in need of renovation. The terrace overlooking the Aeolian Islands is beautiful, but it's noisy because it borders the main road, with roaring motorcycles... impossible to talk. The pizza is average, perhaps a bit too large.
