I migliori ristoranti in Messina

19/09/2025: Generous dishes, swordfish galore.

31/08/2025: It says it's open on Sundays, with the opening hours. It would be respectful to customers to update the information here on Google.

12/10/2025: Nice atmosphere overall... abundant food but trattoria-style... tasty nonetheless.

11/10/2025: Everything was tasty. Service was quick. The atmosphere was clean and pleasant.

19/10/2025: Well done to the gentleman in the dining room! Excellent food!

14/10/2025: This isn't a campsite anymore. The owner made that rather rudely clear to me. We were allowed to stay for dinner, but we decided against it...

24/07/2025: Coffee granita with cream and delicious brioche

29/08/2025: Last Saturday, I spent an evening at this bar on the Roccalumera seafront, strategically located with a picturesque view of the Strait. The modern, pleasant atmosphere puts you at ease, allowing you to relax and enjoy an excellent aperitif with background music. I had an excellent whiskey sour, expertly crafted with a perfect blend of various ingredients. I recommend this lovely establishment because the atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing, with excellent bar and cuisine. Affordable prices.

29/08/2025: Excellent aperitifs, Giovanni is an excellent bartender, always available.

26/10/2025: Today we had the opportunity to eat at Da Francesco. The food was excellent, the service was great. The dishes looked just like the photos. I recommend this place to anyone visiting Lipari. The local animals :) in this case, the seagulls also confirm that the food here is top-notch :) they try to get something from everyone :) Today we had the opportunity to eat at Da Francesco. The food was excellent, the service was great, and the dishes looked just like the photos. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Lipari.

23/10/2025: Lovely harbour restaurant. Best pizza we had on the island. Chef owner recommended a delicious dessert. No photos as all in tummy. V satisfied.

21/09/2025: We had the pleasure of being guests of some very dear friends who decided to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary at this venue. We were pleasantly surprised and satisfied with the quality of the food and the courtesy of the staff. Highly recommended.

28/08/2025: Not great, especially on the plate.

03/11/2025: Managed with kindness, it has been my go-to place in the area for years. It always lives up to my expectations.

22/09/2025: I had a good time, good pizza and friendly staff.

02/11/2025: Frozen fish, inedible seafood linguine, rubbery mussels, horrible shrimp, limp pasta. Salmon pennette that didn't even smell like it, just tasted like cream. I don't know how you can call it a restaurant. I cook better at home. P.S.: I'm editing my review after reading the response. It's all bullshit. I didn't bother anyone, nor did I treat the waiters badly (like slaves), especially because I've known Andrea for a long time. Negative reviews are for self-improvement, not for making up excuses. So, in addition to improving your cooking, improve this as well.

31/10/2025: The dishes are plentiful....For the rest, I'd give it a 0. The lady who seated us wasn't at all friendly, but the guy, on the contrary, was helpful and smiling. The dishes are inedible. My wife had paccheri with shrimp and radicchio, and they were drowning in oil. I had seafood linguine....tasteless. Consider that I live in a touristy seaside town and I can tell a good dish apart, but you won't find this food even in low-end restaurants.

20/09/2025: A good place to eat seafood is essential. They cook quite well, with an excellent slice of pauro, and a good mixed fried fish platter with various types of fish. Perhaps the shrimp and calamari were missing, but the cuttlefish made up for it. The fish appetizer, which was rather sparse, could use a rethink. All in all, a place worth trying. And last but not least, the service was impeccable and fast. The only flaw is the location, which is from the 1980s, but the quality of the food makes up for it. It's been closed for good for several months now.

11/04/2025: Honestly one of my favorite places to eat in Messina, the hidden ones that at a very honest price make you eat like heaven

19/11/2025: The coffee and arancini were very delicious, and the staff member was a very nice Hungarian-speaking lady! 🫶🏻

07/11/2025: We ordered 3 portions of fish and chips and squid to take away. The food was prepared very slowly. (approx. 20-30 minutes) When paying, it turned out that we could not pay by card, only cash. The paper cone we received contained very little squid, but at least it was expensive. We will not go here again, I do not recommend it.

20/09/2025: We've celebrated in the colorful, decorated room several times... the quality of the food is superb... the fried mix is ​​crispy and not greasy... the rustici are so good you can't explain... but I'll focus on the arancini, DELICIOUS!!!! Soft and crunchy focaccia, tasty and well-filled... what can I say... try it and believe it! I highly recommend it!

26/08/2025: A small town pizzeria, a bit run-down in its layout but excellent in service and food quality, especially the pizzas, with a well-leavened, soft dough and perfectly cooked. Average prices for pizzas but significantly below average for drinks. Excellent service, the place could use some renovation. I ordered takeout.

09/07/2025: Aside from the authenticity of the dishes, everything was excellent, nothing more to say...I really want to highlight the kindness of the dining room staff. From the very young people to the gentleman (whose name escapes me) who served us and advised us. It was a pleasure having him at the table with us. He was a person of substance and great spirit. Almost like family. I will definitely be back...CONGRATULATIONS

22/06/2025: The place is very nice, at least the garden, where I was seated. Young guys just starting out, so you can forgive them for some small imperfections, but they were polite. The restaurant manager is a "secret agent undercover" who, unfortunately, doesn't know how to direct the guys in an adequate way (the place would have a lot of potential!). But the food... A big no. Disjointed and senseless dishes. All frozen fish (which in itself is not necessarily a flaw for someone who, by choice, does not prefer seasonality or a variation on the catch of the day), but killed by covering up the flavor instead of simply enhancing it. No salt in the pasta.

10/08/2025: Very good pizza and very friendly owner

27/04/2025: La pizza non mi ha convinto del tutto: ingredienti discreti, ma l'impasto e il sapore non erano all'altezza delle aspettative. Inoltre, le dimensioni erano piuttosto ridotte e il prezzo decisamente elevato per la qualità offerta. Un'esperienza che mi ha lasciato un po' deluso. Spero in un miglioramento per il futuro!
