Liberty Restaurant Bistrot Wine Bar — Restaurant in Cefalù

Ordered a risotto with seafood. They forgot the squid and I asked a waiter but they never came back. While I was explaining it to a 2nd waiter a 3rd person (I suppose it was the manager) heard/saw me and came asking what the problem was. I explained again, he just took the plate from the table and went away with it. Very rude. After not knowing what they were going to do and my friend already almost finishing her food, I got my plate back with some squid. Again, not a word from the person.

In my opinion, giving excuses or at least communicating something could be the least they could have done. Not even a word after I got my plate back.

My friend finished her food while I just started and they came to pick up her plate already. Rude considering I was still eating. We could also feel the waiters talking about us and staring us down.

I would've wanted to try dessert but considering after we were done we heard the waiter say to a customer they could have our table in 5 since we were leaving, I didn't even have an option. They didn't even ask if we were finished or wanted dessert.

Not my fault your chef forgot some squid and to be honest I didn't even care about it. But the way they all acted after it like I offended them is just 0 customer service.

The food itself was a 3,5/5 but I'm probably being generous since...

If you’re looking for a place with a nice atmosphere by the coast, this restaurant is fine for that. However, if food quality is your priority, you will be better off dining elsewhere.

The main disappointment was the quality of the food. The mussels in my dish had an odd texture and tasted like they were frozen rather than fresh. Normally I enjoy mussels a lot and eat them very often. My companion’s swordfish dish was also quite average, and for €16, it didn’t feel like good value. The grilled vegetables were lukewarm and seemed to have been reheated, with one of the onions even served with some skin still on it.

The tiramisu dessert was another disappointment. It had a watery consistency, which suggested either it had been sitting out for too long or was not properly made. The portion size was also rather small.

On the bright side, the staff was lovely and attentive. We want to emphasize that our comments are not directed at the service, which was excellent. The team did their best to make our visit enjoyable.

Overall, while the location is great for a relaxing evening by the coast, we believe the quality of the food could be significantly improved to better match the prices. We hope to see a stronger focus on the freshness and preparation of dishes...

Highly disappointed. We were there a night of a wedding and figured if a bride and groom chose this it has to be good...wrong. I ordered the misto mare or fried fish. Asked what was on the platter and was told it was shrimp, Calamari and small fish. I don't know what the small fish was so the owner was like, no problem, We can do calamari and shrimp to which I agreed. Dinner comes and calamari is overcooked, warm at best and I guess fried but nearly zero flour or favour and chewy which it should not be. For 15 Euro it comes with nothing so I ordered the grilled veggies which were old and cold. The egg plant was pretty much leather. Then when the bill comes that $15 fried fish platter with only one shrimp comes to $20. My husband questioned why and the owner said it was because he gave me more shrimp and calamari...more? It was one shrimp and at best a small calamari cut up so what one ring more?! My husband's steak was also paper thin. There are lots of other restaurant more reasonably priced after we walked around and much more appealing on site. I would avoid this restaurant if nothing more than what I consider dishonesty. We were of course never told there would be a 5 euro upchange for a piece or two more of overcooked calamari. You...
