8/10The food was good, especially the stuffed sardines and the pasta with shrimp and pistachio although the pasta was a bit too dense for my liking. My wife had the pasta with scampi and a tomato, chilli and garlic sauce, the sauce was nice but there wasn’t too much meat in the scampi that she had to extract herself. The restaurant did not honour the 20% discount promised when booking through The Fork although the prices were reasonable anyway.

10/10Nice restaurant a short distance away from hustle and bustle of the main tourist area. Extensive menu, especially seafood. Food was excellent. Special shout out to Vito for looking after us so well.

9/10Food was amazing, house wine not bad. The street seating is a bit chaotic so maybe eat inside?

4/10Rude and inattentive wait staff spoiled the experience. The food was good but no way I can recommend this restaurant when there are so many options for enjoyable dining elsewhere

Restaurant is correct but Pasta don giovanni at 25€ is expensive for what you get...tiny shrimp and nothing else. Outside the place could be nice but too many cars and scooters pass close the street with noise and smell of Co2 is not enjoyable. Service is nice and fast that's the good point.

5/10Really wanted to like this place because of the wonderful review and so made reservations in advance. Grilled swordfish was overcooked and flavorless and lasagna was thin and dry. Waitress was polite but inattentive. I am hoping we just ordered wrong on the vast menu but would not want to come back.

8/10Food was tasty but felt like savings were being made without very few prawns in prawn dish and hardly any aubergine in maccaruni alla norma. Flavours were good though. Also disappointed that didn’t get told that pizza oven was down until our order was taken 20 minutes after arrival - difficulties ensure trying to find something that our fussy teenager would then eat. Restaurant showed some good flexibility on this. Ambience somewhat ruined by loud motorbikes driving up and down the road beside the table.

The kindness of the staff goes without saying, and above all, the food was absolutely excellent. I’m truly grateful for having been able to spend my last evening in Catania so enjoyably.

10/10Everything we ordered was delicious. The waitstaff is also excellent. The director Vito was attentive checking on us making sure everything was good. It was the best meal we had in Catania. If you’re thinking of going, I would not hesitate. We had a delicious meal in a beautiful restaurant with a great wait staff.

9.5/10Delicious meal! We ordered shrimp ravioli and pistachio gnocchi as starters and a horse mixed grill and grilled swordfish as mains. Dessert was a pistachio lava cake and we enjoyed every single dish!

We didn’t receive 30%, only 20 discount. I have ordered 400g ribeye, looked like 200g normal steak. We had impression that all portions were halved after I showed him the fork reservation and discount. Otherwise food was ok and they were kind
Maccaruni • Owner
sorry, I accidentally paid £20 for wine instead of £26.. and we got 20%.
