We had the €50 tasting menu, the smallest and least expensive one. Even so, we left very full, which was a pleasant surprise. The first dish was excellent. Great flavours and a really nice combination of swordfish, soft aubergine and crunchy pine nuts. A very strong start. The pasta was also very good. The mint added freshness and worked well with the aubergine cream. But this is also where the menu started to feel repetitive. It was again swordfish with aubergine and crunchy nuts. Different dish, but very similar overall. The main course arrived nice and hot, which I always appreciate. The fish was perfectly cooked and the flavours were spot on. Unfortunately, it was swordfish for the third course in a row. The menu description doesn’t mention the swordfish, so that came as a surprise. Also, the menu description doesn’t really do justice to the dish. On its own a great dish (I love grilled swordfish) but unfortunately we had already eaten a lot of that fish. Three swordfish dishes in a tasting menu is simply too much, especially when the first two courses are already so similar. Dessert was good. The marzipan ice cream was excellent and the chocolate sponge cake was tasty, although maybe a bit too large for a tasting menu. We also had the wine pairing. Local Sicilian wines, good variety and every wine matched its course well. No complaints there. Overall, this is a very good restaurant with a skilled kitchen and good ingredients. The only thing holding this tasting menu back is the lack of variation. Replace one of the swordfish dishes with something else and this would easily have been a five-star experience. Total price for two people: Eur 143. Will come back.

Very good
We had a fantastic experience. The booking team was incredibly responsive, messaging me on WhatsApp to confirm our reservation and even asking about our preferred table arrangement for our party of 12. We were given a lovely table overlooking the marina, which made for a beautiful setting. From the moment we arrived, the staff recognised who we were before we introduced ourselves and gave us such a warm, friendly welcome. The service throughout the evening was attentive, professional and genuinely welcoming. The food was the wonderful. Every dish was fresh, and you could tell they were proud of what they presented. We all agreed it surpassed the Michelin guide restaurant we had visited the previous evening. An outstanding meal with excellent service in a stunning location—we wouldn't hesitate to return.
Super restaurant
Our meals were absolutely delicious, with local wine, cocktail and beer recommendations. Proudly local food!
The atmosphere was super nice, relaxing and the waiters were super attentive.. Everything was fresh and tasty however I believe that tuna was a bit flat in the dish of pasta. My friend tried the risotto with prawns and absolutely loved it!I would recommend it for sure!!
