    I mistakenly made a reservation for 2 and we were 4. The staff quickly rearranged the tables in a fully booked restaurant and accommodated us pleasantly and without a fuss. The food was all fresh and flavorful. The house red wine was acceptable and accompanied the meal well. The final bill with the Fork discount was extremely reasonable. All in all an enjoyable meal in a true Osteria setting.

    Osteria Dolce Vita is an absolute gem in the heart of Trapani. From the moment you walk in, you are welcomed with warmth and genuine Sicilian hospitality. The atmosphere is charming and relaxed, blending rustic elegance with a cozy, intimate vibe. The menu highlights the best of local ingredients, prepared with passion and creativity. Every dish — from the perfectly cooked seafood to the rich, flavorful pastas — reflects an authentic connection to the region’s culinary traditions. The wine selection complements the menu beautifully, offering a thoughtful range of Sicilian and Italian labels. Service is outstanding: attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly without ever feeling intrusive. You can tell the team takes real pride in what they do. Osteria Dolce Vita is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience true Sicilian flavors in an unforgettable setting. Highly recommended.

    Genuine Italian restaurant, attentive staff and busy with locals and tourists. We shared a meat and cheese platter followed by the ravioli. Both very good and a jug of local wine which was very reasonably priced.

    A local restaurant for families with few tourists. Great for typical Trapani and Sicilian dishes. Loved the authentic atmosphere. Food was Sicilian home cooking. Reasonably priced.

    The decor was tired, and having booked a table the previous day we were placed next to the toilet and a pile of paper deliveries. The food was “ok” but the mixed fish starter for 2 was disappointing, with much less fish in it than expected, and my bucatini con sarde had a good sauce, but the pasta did not taste like fresh pasta. My partner’s sepia was good. I would not rush to make a return visit

    The food was excellent - a very tasty couscous in the Trapani style (actually the best I’ve ever had), a great octopus salad, and a local seafood pasta dish that was complex and delicious. Dessert was a cannelloni that was superb and big enough for two. Our house wine was very drinkable. What really set the restaurant apart was the true kindness and humor of all the staff. They really worked to accommodate all their patrons from an elderly woman from the neighborhood to small children.
