Oscar's is a small, family-run pasticceria, complete with Mama and children in tow. We were handed a cannoli, made at that moment for us, and the love affair with this bakery started. They have a whole array of marzipan treats, many shaped into other food. We had a good laugh examining what appeared to be a ham and cheese sandwich, but which was actually made entirely of marzipan. This bakery is THE place to try. Small. Cute. And, extremely delicious. The cookies are to die for, and to be washed down with a freshly-pressed Italian espresso.

Today we ate the most delicious cannoli we have ever eaten at Oscar! They also have fantastic…read moregelato and granita. The people who run this wonderful Pasticceria are so friendly and nice! We first came in looking for a panini and the woman who owns Oscar asked her friend to walk us down the street to her favorite sandwich shop which was also fantastic. We then returned to Oscar for dessert and were amazed by how delicious everything was. Do not miss this wonderful place and definitely get the freshly made pistachio cannoli!

Upon our stroll we came across Miceli Cafe and my aunt who resides nearby mentioned they have the best gelato and granite--so of course I hade to try it! They offer a huge variety of flavors and options. My husband is a fan of the gelato inside the brioche bun. I stuck to 2 flavors on a cone. The consistency of the gelato was creamy and melts in your mouth! Each flavor is true to its name and are very rich and flavorful. I did not get to try the granite but when I return to Sicily I would check it out.

My God! We purchased sirloin from here and hands down! This is the best, freshest, juiciest steak I…read morehave ever had in my life! The owner was also very nice man. Super sweet and tolerated our inability to communicate effectively and have to Google everything and work with pictures. I think he understood us because we got what we asked for. Steak was reasonably priced. We met his wife. There was a guy cutting the meat in the back. All I can say is go buy your meat here! Do not deprive yourself! I know a good steak. And when I tell you it is good, by gosh it is the best I've ever had! And as a bonus, we even met his beautiful wife! It's one of those local family businesses that is a charmer. Go please! Thank me later!

I will preface this by saying that this review is for the location directly beachfront (lungomare)…read morein Venetico. After spending a couple weeks In Sicily I had walked the neighborhood and saw another location a few blocks away--this local coffee shop which I'm reviewing was situated beachfront and had ample seating. There is both inside and outside seating--the outside seating is shaded. There's an array of choices to choose from in their menu. Since we stayed for a couple of a weeks I was able to try the following dishes, granite fragola con panna e brioche, crema caffè, espresso macchiato and Schweppes with limone granite. My favorite of all these listed items was the crema caffè. It was like a caffè frappe that was both bold and sweet in flavor. It is served in a small "shot glass" and that was plenty for a mid-day boost. Friday and Saturday nights seemed to be their busiest night since they hosted karaoke on the weeks that we were here--the seating expanded to across the street (closer to beach) on the broadwalk. The staff is extremely friendly and cater to you--if something isn't right for you they strive to make it right.
