    Great restaurant! Yummy food and wonderful cocktails. But please don’t follow the route shown in google maps if you’re walking. Take the longer route.

    Good location on the edge of the old quarter of San Berillo. Lovely ambience, open place, nice staff. Food is very normal as I had pasta mama. Prices are reasonable. Unfortunately, pizza is not served here 😕.

    Pretty cool cocktail bar, tucked away in the historical San Berillo district with a vibrant hipster and friendly atmosphere. They serve good cocktails and amazing pizzas! Their ingredients are fresh and very tasty. It's a really nice place to enjoy a drink outside with finger food and pizza sharing!

    Great cocktails, wonderful atmosphere at dusk with some live music and the pizza was delicious too. Would have stayed for more food had I not been over fed that day. Service very friendly - this was a gem of find in the leafy green area of Sam Berillo art district in Catania!

    This is likely gonna become my new local. Staff is not only friendly but also knows their stuff. So far the only real cocktail bar I've found in the city. Quiet, personal, clean, just a straight up groovy joint. Five stars my dudes.

    Excellent selection of drinks and snacks, excellent service and an unparalleled interior. The outer decoration is a feast for the eyes as well. You must visit this bar, when you are in Catania and are a real Globetrotter.

    As a southern Italian, it is so nice to see that there are people in our regions who prove that it is also possible to do better than just the minimum! Absolutely worth a visit!

    This was just exactly what I needed. A nice antipasti board in a picturesque little back yard. The food was delicious. The staff very welcoming, warm and interested. Just the antipasti was a bit “minimal”: crisps 🤭 Anyway would always come back 🤗♥️ Thank you so much for the great evening 🙏🏻

    Really enjoyable place for evening drinks and something to eat. We shared the antipasto board which was huge! Aperol spritz is one of the best in Sicily. Only downside is for two people you have to sit at wobbly small seat and table instead of the nicer bench seat tables. Setting is really cute and nice and the staff are very friendly.

    Loved the place. The decoration is unique and warm. We had very good cocktails recommandations from the waitress. If in Catania, you HAVE to go there at least once. Lot of young people to meet and talk to!

    Wonderful evening experience! Great food, nice drinks and chill experience! Perfect place for a date, or out of routine couple dinner. Also cozy to meet friends and family. We loved it!

    Very cute ambient but the prices are very high and they also charge coperto even if you don't eat anything, just drink...but everything other than that was great!

    Fantastic bar. Do not doubt for one minute, it’s will impress you once you enter. I recommend to try the basil gin 🌿 Karim, the crew member, is the absolute best. Thank you for amazing evening Lots of love ❤️

    Despite the beautiful location and interesting menu, service at an embarrassing level. Despite 60% vacancy and our assurance to change in case of other guests, we were not allowed to sit at our chosen table because it was meant for more people, in a rude and ostentatious manner. I wholeheartedly recommend people who want to feel humiliated

  • 5/5 Aleksandra �. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is a true gem! I highly recommend for everyone who wants to have a good drink. Their food was also delicious and beautifully served.

  • 5/5 Ethan N. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Place for a quiet drink weird music choice but to keep the volume pretty low. the bartender really knows what he's doing nothing flashy just good cocktails and very reasonably priced. The Corpse Reviver No.2 was particularly good.

  • 5/5 Ania R. 11 months ago on Google
    It was the best pizza we eat in Catania, really beautifull place. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 fabienne l. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice place, beautiful ambiance in the center of a little piazza with an olive tree. Staff very nice and friendly, cocktails for 7-8€ and super tasty ! Great choice of drinks We went there two nights in a row, and would go again !

    Nice and relaxing place, but the mosquitos were a bit too many. Visited in July.

  • 5/5 Caroline M. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing spot! Great cocktails, fun vibe. Not much happens before 8pm, but then the fun begins!

    Coperta for a small pack of chips (and a drink) is a bit out of character with standard practice. Drinks have slipped in consistency and quality compared to other local bars and international expectations. Came a few years ago and felt it was better then. The gin basil has no resemblance to the modern classic Gin Basil Smash.

    Nice place in arty district of Catania! Food, service and atmosphere! But especially cocktails 🍸

  • 1/5 Claudia H. 7 months ago on Google • 25 reviews
    I came here because the queue at the restaurant next door was super long. Not a good decision. The little square is very cute, but that's already it. The pasta was quite boring. I had better in Sicily, certainly in the restaurant next door (which I highly recommend). The "service" was abysmal, I would give 0 stars if I could. I sat in front of an empty glass for over 30 minutes only 5 meters away from all of the waiters and in direct eye line. They passed by my table countless times, chatted extensively with each other and played on their phone. No question of whether I'd like a desert, a drink or the check. Eventually I had to get inside to pay but it noone there would have noticed if I would have just left without paying.
