    I've been here twice and the second time was even better than the first. Great wine selection.

    The restaurant is beautifully designed and crafted. We sat outside on a perfect late summer evening. The service was superb and the food was amongst the best we’ve had in Sicily. My sea bass was perfectly cooked and well flavoured. In summary a memorable meal.

    Great staff but although they said they could cater for gluten free requirements when booking, there wasn't a great number of options. They had some, but their GF pasta was short when all the menu options had long or stuffed pasta, and the only desert that wasn't sorbet wasn't available. Having said that, was a great designed / visual space, staff tried their best to be helpful, and the food we had was nice if a little overpriced.

    Gorgeous restaurant. The staff were great. It was a busy and hot night, but you can tell the staff cared and want to do their jobs well. Beef tartare was okay and so were the rest of the food ordered. 2 pizzas and I had the lobster linguini. The tree dessert was fun. Anyway, the ambience was amazing. They have plenty food to choose from on their menu so we will of course come back and try new things.

    Food really good but service let it down, waited 50 minutes for our first round of drinks to come and was served the wrong bottle of wine at first. Food and setting is really nice but I think management need to up training and staff to make sure the experience reflects the quality of food and setting. We were there 3 hours and didn’t have dessert.

    The restaurant offers two different types of menu and our family of five ordered from both. Everything that we tried was delicious and worth coming back to try more. We tried two of the cocktails and enjoyed them as well. The decor and overall ambience is also enjoyable. I would however expect more from the cleanliness of the ladies room. It is better for most of Catania, but should be better for this kind of a restaurant. The service also needs some improvement. The biggest issue is that the drinks are too slow to arrive. We had to ask three times for the second bottle of water and it took more than ten minutes for my husband’s beer. He enjoys it only cold with a hot meal. While waiting for a second or third however, your meal is getting cold. The neighborhood is not the best and I wouldn’t feel safe walking around on my own at night. Overall I do recommend the restaurant and could visit again for the food, cocktails and ambiance. I hope that they can improve what is missing as the general concept is good.

    One of the best restaurant we went to in a long time. Food is delicious both to the eyes and our tastebuds. Staff is friendly and very attentive. Menu is inventive and masterfully executed. Will most likely go back while we are still in town and we cannot recommend more highly to others.

    Thank you dear Steven for sharing your experience. See you soon!

    Finding a great restaurant as a tourist can be difficult. Whilst walking around Catania I stumbled upon a restaurant which looked wonderful. Although we didn’t dine there I went past the next day and asked them if they could recommend a restaurant as beautiful as there’s. They suggested ‘ IN via vela dieci’ and what a great recommendation it was. G Exceptional food, somewhat too cool for school service but that’s ok. I reckon among the best dining experiences in Catania .
