This was probably the best seafood dinner of my entire life. I shared the Antipasti di Mare (a meal…read morein and of itself, but we did not know that!). Followed with grilled calamari and a seafood pasta. Simply divine! The kids had margherita, and my brother a pizza with bresaola and arugula that was also memorable. We sat outside, right on the town square, in view of the sea and the "marina dei ciclopi." We spent 99 euros for eight people (4 adults + 4 kids). My sister-in-law (fluent in Italian) asked our waiter if the calamari was fresh. He said of course and brought us up to the first floor where we could inspect all the seafood ourselves. To summarize, everything about this place was amazing. Greatly recommended.

What a gem! Cute decor, fresh and clean and modern, fun nautical theme, and the food! Well, I only had a glass of wine and the "Linguine with seafood" but it was full of octopus, mussels, one clam, and a giant prawn. Yummy! Perfect lunch portion, and 9€. The pizzas seemed too big for one person. Linguine was perfect for a medium female appetite. I recommend it!

The salad was simple but fresh. The pizza with sausage, broccoli, and other things that my non-existent Italian couldn't comprehend, was rich and flavorful with a good crust. The liter of table white wine was a good complement. Very happy with Pizzeria Jonica!

The doorman rolling his eyes when you ask him a question. Very New York here. I wandered around the city and found this quant little restaurant. Inside was packed with patrons so I took a seat outside. It took about 20 minutes to get a server. The outside area was busy as well. When I got a server I asked for a cheese pie. He looked at me a little strange. I further explained i wanted no meat. There was a bit of a language barrier but I thought he understood. Well I got my cheese pie. ALL CHEESE! Lol. The cheesiest pizza I've ever had. It was good but SUPER RICH! We don't have cheese like this in the states. This was the real deal! I wasn't used to it. And after a while it was a bit overwhelming. I didn't finish it so I took the rest back to the hotel with me. Pretty confident I over paid. My card wouldn't work there. The only cash I had was a $20 bill. So I gave it and told them to keep the change. Yep, spent $20 on a $8 pizza in Italy. What a life! #ashsaidit

I really would love to give this place more stars but the service was slooowwww and even though they opened early for us we were the only ones in the restaurant-so service could have been a little speedier... The hubby had been here several times and raved about it. So he was so anxious to take me here and I think he was more disappointed than I was in the service. I was just thinking it was typical Sicilian style service...sloooooowwwwww. We had attempted to stop by a week prior but it was busy-so this place is popular. English is spoken here-and menu accommodates. 5 stars for the charming decor and architecture and the location. It's located down this tiny charming walking only street with other super cool restaurants surrounding it. And the music playing was super cool jazzy stuff-really complimented the decor. Old World! Polptteria means Meatball Place-Polpetta-is a meatball. This is their specialty and they make them in a variety of ways: Seafood, Vegetarian, Beef, and I think Pork. We had a variety and my son had the spaghetti. I have to say I was less than impressed. I had the beef stuffed with cheese-it was like a Gorganzola, it was okay, I mean it was good it just didn't make me jump up and down. The kids pasta was tasty. Microbrews are another specialty so we had a bottle, very good, but I think the slow service was a turnoff and hard to enjoy when they take forever to bring the beverage service out. I ordered the red house wine and I got white wine. I drank it and it was good, but when the restaurant is empty and you still can't get good service? Maybe it was an off night.

My thing is... idk why in Europe it's so common to have bbq sauce on burgers and chicken wings in Europe I guess it's like a staple here lol I really don't care for bbq sauce that much so I already was expecting the food to be alright. The beer on tap was good tho I will say and the place was packed! I ordered a burger with some fries and onion rings I'll say that the burger was good but it started to break apart because of the amount of grilled onion and the type of bread they used. I'll give the burger a 4/5 for flavor and just all around experience at this spot. Would I go here again? Yeah I would why not I'll try something different next time !
