Pizzeria Ristorante La Pineta — Restaurant in Sutera

WOW, just WOW! We have eaten in several good restaurants before but never left a review before… this time it is absolutely needed though, so here it comes! First, we started with the ‚Rustico’ aperitivo - amazing variety of local food (as the owner told us later - most of the ingredients were from his own garden, including hand-picked olives!).

Very nice waiter - kind, not too distruptive, but always at hand when needed - which is great. What’s more, a lovely owner gave us shots of limmoncello and - believe it or not - a ride back home to our B&B nearby :)...

If you're coming to Sicily then make sure you don't miss out on this little gem of...

We stopped by on our way from Palermo to Agrigento for a fantastic meal. The "rustico" antipasto platter was full of specialities of the nearby town of Sutera, and was made from ingredients grown in the restaurant's own garden. The food was superb, and the owner, despite speaking limited English, was extremely welcoming and kind. He sent us on our way with a bottle of cold water and granita on the house.

I highly recommend stopping by here to eat if you find yourself in this part of Sicily. The nearby town of Sutera looked attractive, and the castle at Mussomeli, a fantastical ruin of a Norman castle, is only a...
