Read moreI came across this place on trip advisor as one of the better restaurants in Catania and it didn’t disappoint. I arrived much earlier than my reservation but the waiter Antonio could not have been nicer and allowed me to sit 15 minutes before my reservation. To start I had some olives, breadsticks and a negroni, no complaints here. I was then shown the menu of the day in which Antonio read through and translated all dishes into english which was very helpful. I started with an octopus salad which was simple, light and yet full of flavour. The fresh octopus paired with carrots and celery was delightful, probably my favourite dish of the night. I have to apologise but I don’t remember the name of the other gentleman who seemed to either be the manager or owner but either way was knowledgeable with the wine. He helped me choose a wonderful Nero d’avola to pair with my Pasta alla norma (a traditional Sicilan pasta) which was one of the better pasta dishes I had in Catania. He also allowed me to try a rose where the grapes were grown in the soil of Etna itself. My last course was of course a fillet of horsemeat which was tender and seasoned well. As if the dinner could not have gone better I ended with the best tiramisu I have ever eaten and some limencello (one shot was on the house!). I can’t thank Antonio and the team enough for a tremendous first dinner in Catania. Definitely recommend coming here with a larger group to experience more of the food and more...
Read moreWe chose this restaurant as we wanted to try fresh seafood. At 7:45pm it was almost empty. We were greeted with a glass of processo, olives and bread. They don’t have a written menu as the dishes change frequently, they come with a board and explain everything to you (also in English), bringing you the fresh catch of the day on a plate (60eur/kilo, the fish is around 800g). For antipasto we went for fried sardine (sardine boccafico), delicious. As primo piatto we chose pasta with shrimp and lemon sauce - what is nice is that they separated one dish into two plates so that we could both try without disturbing the other. The dish itself was really tasty, especially lemon sauce. For secondo we tired sword fish with fresh salad. It was the best out of what we tried, fresh and fantastically prepared. We paired it with a fresh salad, we should have chosen grilled vegetables, the salad was boring and not well seasoned. As per the experience, you have like 5 different people attending you, each one with a different job which makes you feel very special. Be mindful, it is an expensive restaurant, e.g. pesce spada was 14eur, the salad was 6eur, one shot of limoncello 4eur. In addition, there was no vino della caza. All in all, we had...
