I would give 0 stars if it was possible. We were hungry with the family and it was one of few restaurants open around 5 pm. We ordered insalate with octopus and mix of Mediterranean food to share for 2, white wine and pizzas for the kids. The waiter brought first bread as an appetiser for waiting, but without plates and the olive was served in sachets, so how we were supposed to taste the bread and soak it in olive? The glas of wine was served to the table already filled, instead of being poured at customer’s presence, not mentioning that the customer should be asked to taste the first sip to assess the quality. Additionally, the white wine wasn’t chilled enough. Octopus was like rubber and the mix of Mediterranean food was not tasty, the portions were really small and served in small low quality bowls even without a plate (it was supposed to be shared). Savoir vivre of the waiters left a lot to be desired. The only decent dish were pizzas, but they were served as the last and the kids had to wait for their food the longest. Remember, don’t you ever be lured by restaurants with beaters. (The beater of this restaurant was wearing signet rings on each finger which was very pretense and coarsen). Their business model is to once catch clients that will never come back. We highly regret this experience. It is definitely not good value for money....

Tutto storto a Ferragosto Cosa dire, in una serata che uno aspetta per tutto l’anno, non si aspetta una cosa del genere.

Tutto è iniziato quando abbiamo iniziato a girare per Siracusa (dove alloggiavamo) il 9 agosto, per preparci al meglio la serata di ferragosto. Ci siamo imbattuti, su consiglio del nostro albergatore, nei locali disposti sul lungomare dopo la Fonte di Aretusa e dopo il primo locale si trova questo ristorante. Ho spiegato alla proprietaria la nostra volontà di festeggiare a ferragosto...la prima cosa che ci ha detto è che non sapeva se a Siracusa si festeggiasse il 14 sera o il 15 sera...ora io non vorrei essere pignolo, ma un locale con un epiteto "Antico" nel nome, almeno almeno deve sapere vita morte e miracoli della città e del golfo su cui si affaccia. Prenotiamo il 15 su consiglio della signora insistendo che la serata sarebbe stata normale e tanto i fuochi d'artificio quest'anno neanche si povetano fare a Siracusa. Comunque, prima di lasciare il locale, ci ha fatto visitare il lavatoio, che probabilmente è la cosa piÚ bella di questo locale, forse l'unica. Giorni dopo, ripensando piÚ volte all'avvenuto, siamo tornati per cambiare la prenotazione, convinti che se avessimo prenotato il 15, avremmo avuto la possibilità di perdere una serata unica con gli occhi sul golfo di Siracusa di notte costellata di fuochi d'artificio.

Ma ora vado a raccontare la tremenda serata al locale: siamo arrivati puntualissimi all'orario prestabilito ma a causa del cambio di giorno, era stata persa la nostra prenotazione, anche se avevo esplicitamente insistito con la ragazza al momento dello spostamento, di ricordarsi che venivamo il 14 e NON il 15. Come se niente fosse, abbiamo dovuto aspettare come normali clienti che stavano in fila aspettando il proprio turno. Dopo 1 ora di fila, con svariate scuse, ci fanno accomodare al tavolo. Ahimè qui la parte peggiore, perchè dopo 1 ora e 40 minuti arrivano tre primi del tavolo (noi eravamo 8) e solo 30 minuti dopo arrivano altri 4 e l'ultimo dopo altro tempo. Dettaglio non irrilevante, oltre ai fuochi d'artificio, questa sera erano spariti anche tutti i frutti di mare dai primi di pesce, portati dopo la pasta in un piatto a parte, eravamo sconcertati. Incazzati come iene, ci siamo rivolti ai camerieri piÚ volte e infine con la signora che ha esplicitato la serata complicata da tutti i punti di vista per la cucina. Dopo, per scusarsi, la signora ci ha portato dei limoncelli, per annegare il nostro ribrezzo nell'alcol. Con grande "fretta" cerchiamo di andarcene il prima possibile per recuperare una serata evidentemente rovinata. Il conto è stato impietoso e non è stato effettuato neanche uno sconto, dopo tutte le problematiche riscontrate da entrambe le parti. Dopo aver alzato la voce con altre persone dello staff, che non sapevano o non volevano comprendere la situazione, abbiamo ottenuto ciò che ci spettava con ulteriori scuse da parte della capa.

Purtroppo non finisce qui la sventura, perchè la rabbia per una serata scadente è arrivata al livello super sayan quando andando per la nostra strada in cerca di qualche rimedio, sentiamo in lontananza dei rumori altamente riconoscibili: i fuochi d'artificio stavano esplodendo su tutto il golfo quando noi eravamo già lontani! Con grande velocità di gambe e bestemmie ci riportiamo al luogo della tragedia, per goderci l'ultimo rimasuglio di polvere da sparo.

Finisce qui la giornata, Siracusa rimane una cittĂ  bellissima, ma ci sarĂ  una grande croce rossa sul secondo locale del lungo mare...

Overall a not so pleasant experience. The vegetarian pizza and the sea view were the only nice things about this place. Inattentive and chaotic staff. Had to wait for about 10 minutes before someone came over and it was not busy at the time. I asked for some vegetarian recommendations and the guy reluctantly pointed at a couple of pasta dishes. None of the staff members speak English at all. There was an issue at two of the tables next to me - one with the drinks and one with the wait time for the check. The restroom was being cleaned for like 20 minutes at lunch time. Door didn’t lock. *Important: Al Vecchio Lavatoio (the old wash room, one of the sights in Ortigia) is located under the restaurant. I was super excited to visit it only to get utterly disappointed - complete lack of maintenance, water dripping all over, everything was rusty and filthy, full of spiderwebs.

Very good food, service and view. We stopped by at 11.30 and the restaurant crew was eating together, outdoors at one of the tables. One of them told us they open at mezzogiorno (noon), and they looked so contented that we simply had to return. The menu was posted and it’s vegan-friendly (that’s fairly common in Siracusa, btw). I had cavati alla turidda (photo), my wife had spaghetti pomodoro alla basil. Service was prompt. And, Dio mio, we didn’t require a UN Security Council resolution to receive the check - which is simply paid at the counter, the server doesn’t handle transactions. Note that a tip (coperto) is charged on your bill, but it’s still ok to leave a euro or two on the table if you think they deserve it. We did.
