If i were to only order one single appetizer, it would be the eggplant (meat)balls. My only "complaint" is that they get really busy. We ordered some wine and they failed to bring it to us. It was no big deal--- maybe it was God's way of telling us we should drink less. Hehe. The food was awesome and we may even swing by here for lunch before our flight home.

I have no reason not to give it 5 stars -- it's nothing super fancy or special, but it was yummy and a pleasant experience! Bruschetta tipica and pasta alle vongole are recommended.

They opened at 7:30 and we arrived about 7:45 - a few weeks prior to the season so we didn't make a reservation although it was recommended. The space looks like walking into a grotto - tucked back in an alley and has just 12 tables. What's an amazing place!!! The waiter immediately asked us if we would like to have an appetizer for the table - either tipico or fruits do mare - we chose tipico as not everyone in our party is a fish lover. The food that came out was AMAZING! We had homemade ricotta (to die for), a local cheese, arancini balls with local onion (cippolini), onion omelets (sounds weird but amazing), grilled vegetables- every piece better than the last. We all ordered main dishes - I had the tuna Tropea style - delicious - and everyone else had some sort of pasta fish dish and all was beautifully plated and delicious. We were all pretty stuffed and asked for the check - the waiter quickly came over with complimentary limoncello and the check. All of this - plus we had a bottle of house red and a bottle of house white - the whole dinner was less than €20 per person!!! Exceptional dining experience- highly recommended!
