What customers say?

“ We are from the states and came to Sicily for our honeymoon. Did not look at reviews before deciding to eat here and I’m glad because we had the complete opposite experience from what many are saying here. Loris was our server both times we ate here and he was super super friendly and attentive. The seafood linguine, calamari, and cannolis/pastries were outstanding. Probably the best seafood pasta I’ve ever had and I am chef. The carbonara, although slightly over cooked, was still very delicious. It’s no Michelin star restaurant but the super friendly staff and tasty food were absolutely worth the price. Yeah it’s a little pricey but this is a tourist spot so I was anticipating that. They were also open when many others were closed so that’s a major plus when you’re hungry and have limited options. We would definitely come back. Thanks again Loris! ”

“ My wife and I went here to meet a family member immediately following our wedding in the gardens, and the food was exceptional. We shared a few dishes, including octopus, which turned out to be amazing. ”

- Alex Haile -

“ We sat down to eat before reading all of the negative reviews. Honestly, I don’t get it. The service was completely fine, the food was tasty, and the location/vibe were great. I’m assuming that more times than not people who aren’t pleased write reviews to punish the establishment. Don’t believe the negatives, this place was more than fine ”

- Kevin DeAndrea -

“ We had two incredible meals here during our stay! We read the reviews upon sitting down for our second meal and I couldn’t disagree more with the negative reviews. The staff are hysterical as long as you don’t act like an entitled tourist and the food was delicious ”

- Alexandra Wolfe -

“ We went for dinner on our first night in town. The staff is very kind and the food tastes great, the veal and fillet wereboth very well cooked. ”

- Ronnie Ware -

“ Marguerita Pizza was delicious. We stopped by right before closing for a quick bite to eat. The waiter never rushed us out and pizza was hot and fresh. ”
