    The view is nice, but this restaurant is definitely not worth the money. There are many places in Trapani where you can get better quality food for less. The seafood couscous is terribly overpriced: just couscous with a small fish fillet and some broth, not the elaborate dish you can get in other places. The scallop we got had not been cleaned properly and was gritty and full of sand, the spaghetti with sea urchins was a pile of pasta with just a few small urchins. We left the place with a very bitter taste in our mouths. EDIT: We weren't there on a public holiday, it was April 14 and the place wasn't even half full, it was 7.30 p.m.! The defensive reply is outrageous. A restaurant with class would not come up with excuses that aren't even true and apologise for food not being up to standard.

    Excellent location, in a quiet place with a beautiful view of the sea and Erice. The seafood risotto was delicious and the piece of fish on kuskus also had an interesting sauce. Pleasant service, willing to give advice. Prices are fine. After the meal there is still the possibility to stay for a drink.

    Our best dinner experience on Sicily. Great wines, accompanied by varieties of crostini/bruschette and antipasti. We took the vegetarian and the cooked fish version and everything was extremely good.Grazie Tiziana for a great evening and your vine recommendations!

    Amazing apericena. We were in two and ate many plates of food. Crostoni, raw fish, risotto etc. We also took a bottle of wine and an additional two glasses of wine such was the length of the meal. The bill to our suprise was only €56 we were stuffed after eating extremely well. Highly recommended.

    We had a lovely dinner at Aperifish in Trapani. It‘s a wonderful restaurant with Seaview and fresh fish. The owner Mattheo is super friendly and we felt comfortable right away. Try out the drunken shrimps, they‘ve been our highlight. We‘ll definitely come again!

    Had an excellent meal at Aperifish this evening. The tuna tartare was so fresh and presented beautifully and the spaghetti vongole was delicious. The clams are small, delicate, and special. All so the waiters were very patient with us since we don’t speak Italian. I truly recommend this place if you’re in town!

    Amazing restaurant! The owner speaks several languages and gives great recommendations. We were very happy with our choices. The sea plate tasted wonderful and fresh! They had an amazing house wine. I just felt like on my couscous plate wasn’t so much fish in proportion to the couscous. And the music was a bit loud for having a conversation. Hoping to come back soon :)

    We went for dinner following recommendations from our friends, didn’t expect anything over because is very good location usually when is so close to see food is basic and precooked. But I was shocked, service is very personalised, from owner and all members of staff. Beautiful food,well made . Very good wine selection!Definitely 5 stars. Thank you

    I spent my 2 week Sicily vacation driving to coastal towns and dining at seaside restaurants. Aperifish was my favorite restaurant in sicily. Seaside location and view where marvelous. The owner and staff where friendly and treated us well. The value for the food was amazing but regardless of price, the seafood was amazingly fresh and well presented. Owner advised they specialize in raw seafood offerings. I experienced seafood like i have never before. But the cooked seafood was also special. I will remember this meal and Aperifish. Highly reccomended.

    Nicely situated place just outside the busy shopping area, overlooking the Northern shore and Erice. Excellent local cuisine for a fair price. Highly recommended.

    Very nice seafood restaurant with the seafront view in Trapani. We had some really really nice seafood dishes there. The Raw Sea Appetizer Mix was absolutely worth a try same with tuna tataki, although I with the personnel of the restaurant would have told us upon ordering that the Mixed Grilled Fish was actually a large platter for two which we didn't know and when asking the waitress she said it is good for one. Once the food arrived it turned out it was a huge platter for two that was partially wasted on us because we were unable to eat it all :(. Otherwise I really recommend this place for a nice seafood dinner however remember to call in and make a reservation because there are not too many tables in the restaurant so it may turn out that they are fully booked. Another small downside of the restaurant is that the telephone nr for English speaker doesn't work although it is listed on their website. Good news for German speakers is that the personnel speaks German as well as English.

    I think best Sesfood I ever had! Very nice host with grest recommendations. Also flexibel with the orders. And the spot at the sea is amazing. If you like seafood and are in Trapani, this is the place! We'll come back!

    Wow! What a food! Made and presented passionately! I had the best and most delicious pasta (Busiate) ever here! The cellar contains many great wines from Sicily. Visit this place!

  • 5/5 Hanna 1 year ago on Google
    Great, small restaurant with good pasta, meat and fish/sea food dishes. Really tasty! At best, come here before sunset, as the view at Trapani with Erice in the back is absolutely awesome. Highly recommended! Was not the last time I was here.

    Amazing fresh seafood, very friendly staff and owner and the most beautiful view. Magnifico!

  • 5/5 Lindsay C. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic food, service and views! Overlooking the sea, and serving modern and traditional Sicilian seafood, this is by far the best restaurant in Trapani. We have stayed 5 nights in Trapani, and I recommend you make Aperfish your first choice for dinner in Trapani. The wine list is also excellent.

  • 5/5 Luís Gabriel A. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good restaurant with great customer service and delicious food! I felt like this is an authentic Italian restaurant, which does not change its roots to attract more tourists and do not overcharge us. The fish is also very fresh and the view is pretty! We got some starters, coffee and liquor for free :) I totally recommend the canolo 🤤

    We ate here twice within our first eight hours in Sicily. It was that good. Excellent staff and owner offering great wine recommendations and tastings accompanied by superb food platters. We loved it.

    Amazing location, great atmosphere, helpful staff, super fresh fish and perfect wine: all the right ingredients for one of the best dinner in Sicily so far. My sincere congrats to Vanessa for turning her life upsidedown and making a great success out of it.
