The restaurant has a beautiful design and aesthetic, it totally drawns your attention from outside. The view of the valley of the temples is really nice, although not all tables have a good view. While making a reservation make sure you request a table with a front view even though the option is not there for the online reservation. Food wise is absolutely mesmerizing. We had the grilled octopus and the tuna steak, both were incredible. Octopus was crunchy and tasty and the combination with the fava beans sauce is surprisinly great. The tuna was soft and juicy, best I have ever tried. Prices are truly affordable for the experience. Preferably going during the day if you are not arriving by car, as the street where the restaurant is could be a bit dangerous to walk during night due to the lack of light and traffic. (It is a main street with some curves and some parts are not well illuminated)

The view is nice.... But the food isn't as impressive as they want it to be. Had the fried fish anti, pasta with red prawn, and the amberjack. The fried fish was ok, but you couldn't really taste any of the underlying fish/prawns, and the mayo was just mayo. The red prawn sauce was the standout hit of dinner, but the pasta was underdone. The waiter explained that it was "pasta fresca", so that's why. Uh... I make fresh pasta all the time and know that it needed another minute. The amberjack was cooked well, but the sauce didn't compliment it well for me. Come for the view, but don't expect your highlight Sicilian meal. Also if you sit outside with the nice views, be prepared for very busy traffic noise from the road below.

Omg this please is incredible!! Over looking the valley of temples so don't go late i advise you to go for sunset and enjoy the wine for a small bite before dinner i was there around 7:45. I ordered the frittura di pesce to share(fried fish calamiri and shrimps appetizers) AMAZING. They also provided and amazing pannelli in cubes ( you will smell the frying all the way from the parking )and warm bread. I ordered two primi's with my husband the pasta with clams and monkfish was amazing sweet and distinctive. Finally the dessert I ordered the mousse di ricotta and chocolate and something is magical. And my husband ordered semi freddo. Great place 👌 highly recommended

Absolutely amazing restaurant. From the entry and friendly greeting of what seemed like the owner, to their staff, to the amazing food and the awesome view - this place is outstanding! Super close to The Valley of the Temple one could think that this is another tourist trap but you would be fooled to assume any of the like with this place. The serve big portions of fresh fish, great risotto and offer a wine list larger than the menu itself. Truly great place with fantastic indoor seating (still with a view) and a nice outdoor seating area. We paid around 65€ for a lunch for two and were stuffed (with starter, two mains and wine). Highly recommended!

Love this restaurant so much !! They only serve great, selective, qualitative foods and drinks. You will get everything good since the first thing you order. Beer is great taste (From an aspect of beer lover: my husband). Foods are really like gastronomic restaurant, but remain local taste. Another impression for me is that they choose the super high end tea to serve you. I mean how many restaurants out there just choose any tea brand, it can replace, but not a pleasure. Just this little detail of the selection. You can see how the owner cares about the taste. So Don't forget to stop by !

Il Ristorante offre un'esperienza culinaria davvero eccezionale. Sorge in una posizione privilegiata con vista mozzafiato sulla suggestiva Valle dei Templi, rendendo l'atmosfera del luogo ancor più magica, specialmente quando i templi sono illuminati durante la sera. La qualità del cibo offerto dal ristorante è indiscutibilmente di alto livello, sia per quanto riguarda il gusto che l'attenzione alla cura estetica delle pietanze. Ho avuto la possibilità di assaggiare diversi antipasti, primi, secondi e dolci, e devo ammettere che ogni portata ha saputo sorprendere e soddisfare il mio gusto. Gli antipasti erano deliziosi e presentati in modo impeccabile. I primi e i secondi piatti erano altrettanto prelibati, con sapori raffinati e abbinamenti perfetti di ingredienti freschi e di alta qualità. Le porzioni sono state bilanciate con precisone, garantendo una sazietà appagante per tutti i commensali. Anche il pane servito con olio extravergine era di una qualità sorprendente, e questo semplice gesto dimostra l'attenzione ai dettagli che il ristorante riserva a ogni aspetto dell'esperienza gastronomica. Ma la qualità del cibo non è l'unico aspetto che fa brillare il Ristorante. Il personale si è dimostrato gentile, cordiale e altamente attento nei confronti dei clienti. La loro professionalità e la passione per il loro lavoro si percepiscono nell'approccio caloroso e accogliente con cui si prendono cura degli ospiti. In conclusione, il Re di Girgenti offre un'esperienza gastronomica completa e appagante, con piatti di alto livello, personale attento e un panorama mozzafiato. Consiglio vivamente questo ristorante a chiunque cerchi un'esperienza culinaria straordinaria e unica ad Agrigento.
