I migliori ristoranti in Messina

14/09/2025: Excellent food, breathtaking view

30/08/2025: First sandwich as soon as I landed in Sicily. Sandwich with vegetables and pork chops. Their pork chops. The best I've ever tasted in Messina. A seaside shack with fast service. I absolutely recommend it.

11/10/2025: Maurizio was very kind and welcoming. The caponata was the best I've tasted in the Aeolian Islands, and the stuffed squid with sauce was wonderful! Thank you.

05/10/2025: For the owner alone this restaurant is worth a visit. Such a lovely and engaging man, who spoke Italian, English and German with us. The food is delicious and though on the pricier side, portion size and quality justify it. We had the best seafood noodles here. (Sadly I only have a photo of the empty shells)

01/01/2026: I beg you, take my advice. The people who cook have no idea how to make even a plate of spaghetti with clams. The quality of the ingredients is terrible. Plus, the prices are incredibly high. And the owner talks nonsense and makes fun of you: the Mazzara shrimp, which were actually huge and frozen solid, were actually frozen. The location is beautiful, but I highly recommend eating anywhere but this one. They're too bad.

18/12/2025: Very charming place, good food. Prices are above average.

10/03/2026: A bar with a wonderful view of the Aeolian Islands... the sea 10 meters away... excellent products and staff

16/02/2026: We spent 3 days at Carnival, everything was excellent, everything was perfect, from the heated rooms, to the food, excellent waiters and the DJ who made us dance and have fun with his music 🎉💃. We will return as soon as possible 👋👌

21/11/2025: Truly romantic, poetic, and spectacular. Wonderful, clean, and fantastic venue. Exceptional dishes. Excellent, kind, and professional waiters. Excellent prices.

17/11/2025: Simple lunch: 2 starters, 2 first courses and a second course, the bill was very high, above average.

08/03/2026: This evening I ordered 2.50 of three-flavor focaccia, 2 arancini and half a beer for 46 euros. The focaccia was really awful, especially the tomato puree used as a base.

27/02/2026: Terrible place! Terrible service! Absolutely! We had ordered rustici for 8:30 PM, it's a birthday. The rustici only arrived at 9:45 PM, despite numerous calls telling us "it's not our fault, we can't guarantee the time," "let's wait for the guy to come back," and other nonsense. More than an hour's delay is unacceptable! But it doesn't end there: they completely messed up the order. I repeated the order several times during the call so as not to cause any misunderstandings. Guess what? Completely wrong! Instead of 16 San Danieli, they brought us 20 pitoni, plus another 16 pitoni already on the order, for a total of 26 pitoni! And some arancini. What were we supposed to do with all those pitoni? I called and they told me there was a miscommunication between them...even though I repeated the order several times so as not to make any mistakes!!! I invited people for a birthday party and made a terrible impression. Never again Absolutely not recommended, terrible service and zero respect for the customer.

05/12/2025: Very friendly! Especially the girl at the counter was super helpful and courteous, and she recommended an excellent cake. I will definitely be back. Thank you, Giusy, for the wonderful experience.

23/08/2025: Excellent coffee granita with cream and brioche. I highly recommend it.

18/09/2025: Fast service and excellent pizza! Pleasant little terrace in the evening.

11/09/2025: Fantastically delicious pizza! Nice service.

06/10/2025: Super friendly staff and service, and the seating is also great.

25/09/2025: This place gave me food poisoning (I ordered a panini). Avoid at all costs

23/02/2026: Interesting, but pleasant, concept. No menus or prices. Just order a drink and get something delicious. Then surprisingly your table gets covered with loads of hot & cold snacks. Fantastic if you haven't eaten, possibly a waste if you're not hungry. Regarding cost, of course this concept is a bit of a risk. But we were very pleasantly surprised - €11 each for awesome cocktails and enough munchies for dinner for us. I'd definitely go again.

10/02/2026: I stumbled upon this place by chance and had a great time. I'll definitely be back! Very professional and helpful! Excellent cocktails and appetizers.

28/02/2026: The pistachio granita wasn't good, it was very oxidized; the others were average. The brioche was good.

14/02/2026: A €10 Spritz...in the little bar in the Torre Faro square. Need I say more? It seems truly offensive. And I don't want to be harsh on the judgement. THE OWNERS SHOULD SIMPLY BE ASHAMED.

22/10/2025: Lovely restaurant with authentic Italian food Friendly staff, seating mostly outside. The food was delicious. Seating directly on the street and people might feel slightly disturbed when sitting next to the road.

04/10/2025: Amazing place with amazing food🤍

13/01/2026: Who doesn't enjoy swimming in a pool with cigarettes butts. Good things swimming caps are mandatory, but too bad no one told us it's not forced anyway, and in the end we didn't have to buy those swimming caps I guess. No lifeguard at the pool. Loud partying noises till 3am. When at 2am I called reception, because I couldn't sleep, they told me "1 hour" and left the phone hanging, so if you are planning your RELAXING STAY/VACATION it would probably be better to avoid this hotel.

05/01/2026: We stayed here for the first two days and the last day of a tour. The motto: great at the front, terrible at the back. We had a "handicapped room" for two nights. Large, with a balcony and a sea view. It was fine! On the last day, we had a room at the back. Small, with a view of slum-like alleys. Water reached the middle of the bathroom when we showered. On the day of departure, at 6:15 a.m. (it was still dark outside), the power outage in the room! We had to pack our suitcases using our cell phone lights! Later, we received no response, apology, or anything like that at reception. And why can't they replace this "balcony furniture"?

11/10/2025: The traditional dishes are very good, but the place is a bit dark and could use a refresh. Time seems to have stopped somewhere between the '80s and '90s.
