Alessandro (restaurant owner) welcomed us with open arms and a big smile. Started out our meal with a nice Sicilian made Rose wine. This wine tasted amazing. I wish I could bring a case home. Ordered some antipasto platters. The bruschette on the fresh made bread crustini's the artichoke spread was my favorite. But all 3 spreads were delicious. The arancini was the most mouth watering one I've tried. I want more. The risotto filled fried ball was incredible. One of the stars of the meal was the pistachio pesto fresh pasta. I have never had such a more delectable unique pesto in my life. I made sure to clean my plate with the fresh made bread afterwards. The dessert... oh wow... this tiramisu was amazing. Unlike anything I've ever had before. And I want more. This was exactly the authentic Sicilian food experience that I was looking for.

This was one of our best dinners in Sicily.

The restaurant itself appears to be a local joint and not one catering to tourists (a big plus in our eyes). The simple, limited menu offered enough options, but also let us know they do things right and don't try to do too much. Also check out their daily specials. We ordered a little bit of everything and each plate was superbly prepared. You can tell they take great pride in perfecting these simple dishes to elevate them from comfort food to gourmet quality. We will definitely return!!!

So, on arrival, there were no outside seats available. The place was very busy. We were quickly seated inside but, then we were ignored for an unusually long time, even for Italy. No apologies were provided. After we finally received service our experience greatly improved. We asked about the rose house wine and were graciously provided a sample by or friendly server. Then we ordered additional wine and our meals. My wife ordered the chicken stew which turned out to be an excellent homemade olive infused slowly cooked dish with carrots and potatoes. I ordered slow cooked meatballs in Pomodoro Sauce which was served with a bit of light cream on top, also excellent. But the best part of the meal were the small crusty hot rolls provided to not miss eating ALL the wonderful sauces of our dishes. So, the food was a resounding 5 but, we had to rate the restaurant a 4 overall due to the initial experience. That said, we would gladly return but will make reservations first. We highly recommend it.

Service was very friendly and helpful. We both had pasta, me with clams and my wife with salsiccia and funghi. Both very extremely good spiced and the pasta was perfectly cooked. We had the small chocolate cake as desert, which was amazing as well. Prices are more than fair: all together with 2 glasses of wine and a bottle of water we ended up with 50€. Today both of us had pizza and what can I say, it was just delicious! Very well prepared with fresh toppings! Again we also had the chocolate tart as desert. We had two wonderful dinners at this place and we can only recommend this place though it is not in the center but maybe that's why it is so good and not too expensive!

I'd definitely recommend asking for a sauce or maybe some vinegar when you order. I asked the server if I could have a lemon to help with the dryness, and she initially told me no...more than once. At the same time, she kept asking whether I was paying with cash or card before addressing my request. I didn't think asking for a lemon was unreasonable, so I stood my ground. Eventually, she brought me the lemon, and then I paid. The whole interaction felt unnecessarily difficult and came across as rude. The Panino #8 was really good and I enjoyed it, but it could definitely use a lot more pistachio sauce. I'd recommend asking for extra when you order because the flavor is great...it just needs more of it. Overall, the food has a lot of potential, especially if you make a couple of small adjustments to your order. I just wish the customer service had matched the quality of the food.

There was a table outside available just as I approached the place so I was fortunate enough to not have to wait. The space inside is very small and only about 4 small tables on the outside so be prepared to potentially wait. I simply put in my order for the Pesto di Pistachio Pasta and Hugo Spritz and people watched while I waited. The spritz came quickly so I enjoyed the refreshing spritz while waiting for my pasta. When I got my order and took that first bite...pure bliss. The al dente pasta and the subtle pistachio pesto flavor was delicious. Bite after bite and sip after sip, the whole experience on that outdoor table while watching the time pass was relaxing and satisfying. As I dined, I saw more and more people come and wait and I learned they have another location very close by. The waiter would walk them over to that location if they so pleased. The staff mainly speak Italian so be prepared for a language barrier. However, they were all very patient and friendly so no need to worry :)
