When dining in an unfamiliar place, I search for restaurants frequented by the locals. They know where to find the good stuff and Ci Vediamo Da Mario did not disappoint!
Ci Vediamo Da Mario is perfect for a light lunch, sweet pastries or a full-on multi-course dinner. And during my Sicilian holiday I had all three there. It's no secret that Southern Italian cooking is fresh, filling, and characteristically delicious. But not every restaurant delivers with such gusto.
I'll never forget my dinner there. My primo piatto was a Sicilian specialty - pasta with creamy pistachio sauce.

Prodotti di asporto come arancini, panini, le focacce squisite con mozzarella di qualità, pizze al trancio, cannoli e tante altre bontà che sono di ottima qualità e sempre fresche e di non poca importanza i prezzi veramente onesti.
