From the moment I walked in to the moment I left, I was made to feel like royalty.. There were a lot more locals that tourists, which is always a good sign. The fact that the food was spectacular only added to my experience! Highly recommend the restaurant (just make sure you have a reservation).

This restaurant is a step above the normal fair around Catania. Their food is innovative, displayed creatively on the plates and delicious. They have a nice wine selection. Service and ambience were excellent. The only thing stopped me from a 5 star rating on the food was the tomahawk steak for two it was very very chewy. This is a must try just don’t order the steak.

The food was nice, but the waiter was quite rude and hurried up to finish. Got some comments which were not very nice.

The service was quick but unhurried, the food quality and presentation were the best we’ve experienced so far and at a fair price.

We visited this restaurant last year and were really satisfied with food quality, however this year the quality was not the same. Lamb was overcooked and impossible to eat, vegetables overcooked, we visited a restaurant twice during our stay in Catania and were really disappointed.

This was booked for my Wife and I got our 40th wedding anniversary and the restaurant and staff went out of their way to make it the special occasion I had hoped it would be. I can't thank them enough for their efforts which showed the very best of Sicilian hospitality!
