I migliori ristorantinella città Taormina della Messina

09/10/2025: I ordered grilled sea bass and black truffle pasta. It was so delicious and the staff was so friendly!

08/10/2025: My husband and I had such a great dinner here. I got the seafood linguine and my husband got the fresh catch of the day.

03/10/2025: One espresso: 3 Euro + 1 Coperto 4 Euro = Sum of 7 Euros? Really?

19/09/2025: Tasty but overpriced food in an unfortunate setting. You're sitting on top of a main avenue and the noise/exhaust from constant traffic (mostly motorcycels, and buses) makes eating here a literal headache. Small portions and a 4 euro cover per person make this an terrible value despite the quality of the food.

10/10/2025: As many others, I rarely write bad reviews and do it with genuine regret. Unfortunately, this time I have to. I made a dinner reservation for two through the restaurant’s website and also sent an email to kindly point out that their Instagram link leads to a completely unrelated profile. My email was appreciated, and my reservation was confirmed. Sergio was very professional and kind in his reply. All good so far. When we arrived at the restaurant at the reserved time, it turned out there was no reservation under my name. The restaurant was only about 20% full, so it wasn’t a problem and we were seated right away. We looked at the menu and were ready to order, but no one came. After sitting for 30 minutes, I asked one of the waitresses if someone could please take our order. She said that only the boss takes the orders. In the meantime, we were offered wine. Another 10–15 minutes passed before the “boss” finally came to our table and took our order. By that point, it had been about 45 minutes since we arrived. We also noticed that some tables who arrived later were served before us. Based on other reviews, I can agree that the restaurant seems to favor certain guests over others. We ordered a platter of fresh fish and two main dishes. The fish platter arrived without anything acidic to balance the flavors — no lemon, no vinegar, nothing. We asked one of the waiters (who seemed to also be one of the “bosses”) for some lemon or vinegar. He looked slightly annoyed and said someone would come. A few minutes later, another waiter came to ask if we wanted him to explain what was on the fish platter. We said no, we’d just like some lemon please. He still went on to explain each fish in detail, and only after that did we get our lemon slices, about 5 minutes later. The main dishes were fine, just simple and fresh, but nothing special. Perhaps the chef’s concept is to serve everything rich and fried without adding anything sour to balance it, but as a guest, I shouldn’t feel awkward asking for a bit of lemon. The number of times we had to wave or call for service was simply too much. We are not picky guests at all, but this was just a poor experience. Everything took far too long and we felt neglected. Not once did anyone come to check if everything was all right. We always had to ask for attention ourselves. And this was with the restaurant less than half full. The food was mediocre and the service, unfortunately, among the worst I have encountered. Perhaps it felt even more disappointing because I had been really looking forward to this dinner to celebrate my birthday and had such a pleasant communication with Sergio beforehand. Sorry, Sergio.

01/10/2025: Wonderful dining in a beautiful, spacious, quiet, uncrowded courtyard right in the midst of Taormina.

16/10/2025: A pizzeria near the sea but the pizzas weren't exactly Italian.

14/10/2025: I actually just popped in here for a drink, and I also had a cannolo on the spot. It was freshly filled and tasted delicious. The staff was so nice! Thank you so much.

11/10/2025: The view is amazing, but the quality comparing with the price is a disappointment. I don’t recomend at all, it looks a Italian restaurant out of Italy.

01/10/2025: GREAT PASTA I WAS COMPLETELY CRYING

07/10/2025: Had a great meal here with lovely service. Highly recommend.

06/10/2025: The best Sicilian food in Taormina! Highly recommended.

14/10/2025: My mother and I arrived here. We had planned to eat, but we decided to have a glass of wine. So we asked for the menu and ended up giving it back because we only wanted a glass of wine. A grumpy face immediately appeared. Well, we just accepted that until the bill finally arrived. €20 for two glasses of house wine. How badly can you get ripped off? I'd say if you only want a drink, go somewhere else quickly, because they'll rip you off right here.

10/10/2025: I went to this restaurant to celebrate my birthday and it was a spectacular experience! From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and the service impeccable. Nino was simply wonderful: kind, attentive, and always smiling. The food was delicious, every dish was carefully crafted and truly bursting with flavor. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a special experience.

05/10/2025: A wonderful experience, we chose the Mare&Aria tasting menu. The exquisite dishes, the impeccable welcome and service made it a Saturday lunch to remember. We also recommend it for the splendid sea view.

06/09/2025: The best dinner experience we had in Taormina without a doubt. Everything about the night was just perfect

05/10/2025: Heard about this place so went to check it out while in Taormina. Was really disappointed by hospitality of the staff and the quality of the food.

05/10/2025: It used to be such a nice place - not anymore! The lady was very rude and started shouting that we wanted to sit at an empty table without asking. Also, they used to serve very nice limoncello spritz but now they refused to serve drinks only. It all could have been explained in a nice way but being rude is unacceptable. Reply to the owners reply - that’s how it should have been sorted but sadly it wasn’t - we have not encountered more rude service in the whole of Sicily. We tried to be friendly and polite but the first words we heard from her were: No! Leave now! If you don’t like tourists, don’t be in this business.
