When a waiter took plates which we still needed from our table, he tried to carry too many at once and those fell on me. I was wearing a white dress and blue cardigan. He took me to a room next to and sprayed on the stains probably to clean them but I knew it’s not gonna work and I would never be able to wear those clothes again so I asked if they can reimburse me for the clothes. He said yes he will pay me back so just let him know the cost. I had to convert currency from my country’s currency to euro so went back to our table and confirmed it. When the waiter came back to our table, I told him the cost then he said, “my boss told me to take your clothes tomorrow and do cleaning.” I knew his boss didn’t tell him that and he was bullshitting me so I asked him where the boss is and I want to talk to him. Then the waiter finally brought his boss to our table. I think that was the first time the waiter talked to his boss about the incident. The boss came to us and told us they will take photos of the damage and an insurance company which is associated with them will contact me and reimburse for the damage. Our bill was €79 for 2 and they only gave us discount for €9. Our food got cold because the incident happened, the waiter took me to another room so I went back and forth and we had conversations with staff many times at our table. We had to stop eating every time meanwhile. They ruined our dinner and how could they take that much money from us for such an experience? I was very cold from the spray he did to me and freezing while I was eating cold food at the balcony.

This restaurant is truly a hidden gem! From the very first bite, you know you’re experiencing something special. The food is absolutely delicious, with generous portion sizes and an impressive variety of authentic Sicilian dishes. Each plate is crafted with care, bursting with rich, unique flavors that truly capture the essence of Sicily. What makes this place stand out is not just the incredible taste, but the quality of every ingredient. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in its work — every dish is beautifully prepared and perfectly seasoned. On this visit, I had the pasta with truffle, which was part of the special of the day — it was divine! I also sampled some of the seafood dishes, and they were just as outstanding. Next time, I’m definitely coming back for the pork with potatoes, which looked absolutely mouthwatering. This is not the kind of place you visit only once. You’ll want to return again and again to try all the dishes they offer. Every visit promises a new experience, and each one is unforgettable. If you’re in town and looking for authentic, high-quality Sicilian cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere, this is the place to be. A true culinary experience you won’t want to miss! Special thanks to Justina and Mario from Hotel Via Zara for the wonderful recommendation!

Posto prettamente turistico, la quasi totalità dei prodotti presenti sul menù è surgelata (tra quelli segnalati e non) e prezzi sproporzionati alla qualità offerta. Prenotato con The Fork per due persone. Arriviamo e ci viene chiesto se preferivamo un tavolo dentro con l'aria condizionata o in terrazza: scegliamo la terrazza. Ci accomodiamo e aspettiamo qualche minuto di troppo che ci portino i menù. Una volta arrivati e scelto cosa prendere, aspettiamo altrettanti 20 minuti abbondanti nell'attesa che uno dei ragazzi venga a prendere l'ordinazione, durata nella quale abbiamo detto più volte a chi passava che eravamo pronti ad ordinare e le pronte risposte erano "Sì vi mando la ragazza" "Un attimo arriva l'altro ragazzo". Finalmente arriva il terzo ragazzo e ci consiglia dei piatti fuori menù, elencandoci velocemente gli ingredienti, per cui scegliamo (cito testualmente): Trancio di tonno panato agli agrumi con salsa alle pere caramellate su letto di crema di patate aromatizzate al basilico e menta; e spaghettoni ai tre tonni: bottarga di tonno, tartare di tonno e tonno scottato; oltre che un antipasto caldo e due calici di vino. Aspettiamo un altro bel po' l'antipasto caldo, composto da patate circolari fritte, panelle e verdure pastellate: buono e abbondante. Attendiamo ben altri 15/20 minuti per la portata principale, tant'è che abbiamo chiesto più volte a che punto fossero: mai ricevuto risposta. Finalmente arrivano le pietanze, che dall'aspetto sembravano invitanti...al che comincio a sentire un persistente odore di cannella, stranita perché a quanto detto dal ragazzo non avrebbe dovuto esserci nel piatto. Comincio a mangiare ma a metà piatto devo fermarmi perché il sapore della cannella sovrastava tutto e sembrava di mangiarla a cucchiaiate. Peccato, perché senza questa imperfezione sarebbe stato buono: il tonno era tenero e si scioglieva in bocca e la crema di patate saporita al punto giusto. Gli spaghettoni ai tre tonni non erano un granché a detta dell'altra persona: una pasta aglio e olio con sentore di tonno. Fermo restando che a livello personale la cannella non piace, se avessi saputo che era presente nel piatto NON L'AVREI MAI ORDINATO. Infatti, chiediamo spiegazioni e ci viene detto che la salsa di pere caramellate (preconfezionata) contiene cannella. Con tanto di scuse per non averci informato correttamente, come è giusto che sia, ordiamo il dolce, per toglierci l'amaro di bocca (figurativamente): un cannolo scomposto e un cremoso al cioccolato di Modica, panna e muesli. Il cannolo scomposto poteva andare anche bene, tranne per il fatto che la ricotta era sproporzionata rispetto al cannolo frammentato, e in un certo qual senso "sdegnava" dopo un po'. Oltretutto il ragazzo mi ha chiesto se volessi un topping sul dolce: non l'avessi mai fatto, il topping al pistacchio era tutto fuorché pistacchio. Probabilmente di quelli industriali, si trattava di una glassa alla mandorla colorata di verde. Il cremoso al cioccolato discreto, se non per la panna spray nella bomboletta. A fine cena, con la delusione stampata in volto, ci rechiamo alla cassa, dove lo sconto The Fork viene applicato correttamente, ma sul famigerato tonno con cannella mi sarei aspettata quanto meno uno sconto alla base (se non addirittura offrirlo), ma il titolare alla cassa non ne sapeva assolutamente nulla. In sintesi: qualità del servizio scarsa e altrettanta del cibo, poca comunicazione tra i ragazzi (da puntualizzare che non li ho mai menzionati come "camerieri", perché quello è ben altro mestiere), prezzi sproporzionati alla qualità. Anche se beneficiate dello sconto The Fork, lo sconsiglio altamente. Meglio utilizzarlo altrove.

The place is nice, the food is good and the service was also good, until the bill. We went with “the fork” and we were supposed to have a 50% discount on food and we paid 64€. (It would have been 104€ without the discount) We spent 22€ on a bottle of wine (that’s absolutely fine) and than we had a starter, two plates of pasta and 1 desert to share. I was going for two starters but then the guy told me that the portion for the starter I chose was big, and one was enough for two people. It was actually big, even too big but it was good. When we went for the bill the plate was counted as two. We chose the pasta from the selection of the day so it wasn’t on the menu, but then the price was way over the price of the other plates of pasta in the menu.

I’m not saying we spent too much but considering they put almost 40€ discount for the fork (104€ in total)… yes it was a bit too much for an Italian price (I’m Italian). Then … maybe they heard us speaking another language and they thought to charge more to “compensate” for the discount … or maybe it was a misunderstanding. Anyway the food was really good. The two plates of pasta were delicious …so if you go… stick to the plates on the menu, or ask for the price before ordering the...
