Lunch on the terrace was so relaxing. The grape vines overhead gave a lovely, dappled light. We lingered for hours just enjoying that view. Food was decent, but honestly, the setting was the real star.

The pasta alla norma is the reason I keep coming back. The eggplant is fried until it&#39;s almost creamy, and the ricotta salata on top has just the right salty bite. It&#39;s a simple dish done exactly right.

A cozy spot for a rainy afternoon. I tried their chocolate cake and it was rich, not too sweet. The focaccia was also a nice surprise, warm and fluffy. Perfect with a hot tea.

The food is great, the fish is amazing. The service is fine, it can be quite a long wait so I dont reccommend going when you are very hungry.

Unforgettable experience! Great interior, very kind staff that fulfill all your wishes and high quality fresh food. Our Tiramisu was prepared in front of us 😍

I&#39;ve been coming here for years, and the vibe is always the same. That modern, elegant lounge feel. It&#39;s just a really solid spot to unwind after work with a drink.

The service was quite nice and attentive. They brought over a complimentary Sicilian starter, which was a pleasant surprise. A decent neighborhood spot.

The staff here are incredibly kind and friendly, always providing excellent service. The location is also great, adding to the overall dining experience.

Great spot for a glass of wine, though the portions feel a bit small for the price.

The wine list here is solid. We had a nice Cabernet with our steaks, and the staff knew their pairings. Food was good, service was attentive without hovering. A bit pricey on the drinks, but that&#39;s expected.

The seafood risotto was spot on, with perfectly cooked rice. The swordfish involtini were a nice surprise. The local white wine they suggested was a great pairing, really brought out the flavors.

The portions here are huge for what you pay. I was pleasantly surprised by the value. The wine list had some decent options that paired well with the hearty food. Left feeling very full and happy.

The staff here really made the evening. They were friendly and checked in just enough without being overbearing. My water glass was never empty, and they cleared plates promptly. It&#39;s nice to feel looked after without any fuss.

The owners were very friendly and helpful with the menu. We definitely ordered too much, but the portions were generous.

Been coming here for years, and the wine list is always spot on. Owner knows his stuff, suggested a bottle that paired perfectly with my usual order. Ended up buying one to take home, again.

Good service and food very good for the price

The sea urchin pasta was fresh and tasty. Came out quick for a nice lunch.

Found this place wandering Taormina. The live music and all those Sicilian tiles just felt right.

The calamari was cooked just right, not rubbery at all. It came with this warm, crusty bread that was perfect for dipping. The whole place has a really relaxed, easy-going vibe, which I liked.

Andrea and the team were great. The pasta and seafood were super fresh. The complimentary limoncello at the end was a nice touch.

The welcome prosecco was a nice touch. Pasta with sea urchin had a unique taste, not for everyone but interesting to try.

Been coming here for years, and the divine fish tasting starter is always the reason. That seafood plate is just so consistently fresh and beautifully arranged. It&#39;s the one thing I know I can count on, every single time.

The raw fish was pretty good, fresh and well-prepared. I also liked the peppered mussels and the warm heart tart with vanilla ice cream. Service was attentive without being overbearing. A nice spot for a quiet dinner.
