A modern new Italian restaurant, IN Italy. The Catanians…read moreand Americans are raving about this new place that only recently opened... it's up there with that cool restaurant under a Hostel that has a stream running through it. What you'll get at Ritz: Little tiny pizzeta's... presumably made from the pizza dough, but baked to cracker crunchiness, full size pizza's, ample appetizers and actual cocktails that are hard to find in Italy. You'll be doing yourself a favor if you try the spritz here, it's not quite as "orange-y" as the one's you'll get elsewhere.

Being from New York and California, I have to say that this was the best find I could imagine. The…read morereal kicker was that it had one of the best bartenders ever, Marco - a true mixologist. He made a Manhattan with Campari, si singularity the best drink I have ever had. The hostess was fantastic, the waitress were Princeton ballerinas the pizza was sublime, I think I would go back to Catania just to have Marco make me another cocktail.

The waiter forgot we ordered an appetizer and, instead of simply apologizing, very aggressively told us we never ordered it. The ravioli Norma 2.0 were 4 medium/small ravioli with mushy eggplants inside and not much flavor. Two of us ordered the tuna that was supposed to be just seared on the outside and instead was completely dry as if it had been prepared before and reheated (both of us felt sick during the night.For a toddler we ordered a portion of simple pasta with tomato sauce and we were charged 23 euros. So our advise is to just go up for the view and never have dinner there. It is a real pity that a 4-star hotel does not control service and food quality.
