    Please visit here for cheap but amazing food and good cheap wine!! We went 3 rimes during a 1 week holiday and loved it everytime! Everything on the menu tastes amazing with special shoutout to the Rustica pasta dish (cream, mushrooms, sausage, bacon with local pasta... what's not to love!) And the meat stew (which is actually melt in the mouth meat in sauce over epic fresh pasta). Also the mixed starter was a huge winner, a little of everything! And there's a cheese & meats one too - we regularly jus got both. The trio of mixed meats for like €7/8 is actually a platter of about 5 things (fennel sausages, breaded pork, lamb skewer, some beef steak and some pork loin) - huge portion! And the breaded pork is heavenly. On the last night we also got the sharing meat platter and a giant beefsteak (most expensive thing on the menu) cooked to perfection and huge, about 800g!Wine is a mere €6 for a litre of house white and it's cold and tasty. Seating outside in a little side street so it can be noisy but 100% worth it!!

    Fantastic authentic Sicilian food. Amazed at the one waitress skills (occasional back up from the owner) really knew her trade and reminded me of the French cafes and restaurants in rural South west France. Each evening always full. Portion sizes are enough to share. "Free jug of lemonchello" at the end. The set menu is not only good value but very good quality and choice "chef's choice", for those who like their food it is well worth a visit. Now my favourite restaurant in Castellamara del Golfo

    Best restaurant I ate in Sicily. I Will always remember and recommend. If you like Sicilian flavours you will be delighted with this place. They serve very fresh pasta, meat and vegetables. Big portions and accessible prices. The staff were very friendly and welcomed all guests with bruscheta and ended with a good limoncielo and fresh local fruits.

    Ottimo, si consighlia di mangia quì. The fresh pasta is great, the meat boards look very generous & the cuts of cooked meat look superb & the Italians here tell me in Italian that those are very good as well. An additional plus is that you won't find food or drink in a restaurant outside or inside for prices like this & service like this in Castellammare Del Golfo, this place is exceptional. I tried to add photos but won't work unfortunately.

    We were two girls ordering the menu. Full after starters with awesome food, tried to keep up but took a lot of food home. Awesome service asking us if we wanted our leftovers to go. Heaps of food for a very good price. We love the atmosphere, food and people around. Just sad we could finish our food and disappoint our waiter. Will come back

    Amazing authentic sicilian food for unbelievably low price and lovely staff. Try their legendary bolognese and meats. Went there 3 times during a 7 day trip and will be back again for sure. Do not miss this hidden gem! <3

😠 Greatest view of castellammare del Golfo. Service was subpar. Pizza was cold in the middle, wait staff didn't get to our order until 30 min or so. They seemed understaffed. They ran out of mussels. Gnocchi was very good. They didn't send to care about customer satisfaction.

🫤 As tourists me and my friend came into this restaurant, as soon as we entered we were ignored by every waiter and worker and stood waiting for 10mins for anyone to acknowledge us being there. Food took ages and we were literally the last people to be served, around an hour+ just for 2 small bowls of...

👍 Nice restaurant with a great selection of fish and sea food. The fennel salad wasn’t special, but the red snapper we had as a main dish was exceptional and well served. The atmosphere of the place is OK. I personally had the feeling that tourist weren’t treated as well as locals.
