I had the pistacchio granita with brioche. Compared to the granita I've had before, it was both…read morebetter and worse... I know that's a strange way to describe something, but let me explain. The first few bites were very good. The granita tasted a lot more homemade than the others I've had--rich, creamy, very very nutty (vs artificial flavoring)... and the brioche was fantastic--soft, slightly sweet, perfect. The bad: after the first few bites, the granita started to taste like nothing. I think the strong flavor dulled my tongue. I don't really know why, but let's just say it may be wise to share one granita with someone since you may not taste the second half. You don't need the whole thing for yourself, at least if your goal is flavor. Ironically, the other granita I've had elsewhere kept it's flavor--sweeter and more like a milky sorbet--but was less extraordinary. Bottom line: Bring a friend or lover and share!

It was very delicious and cheap to boot. Service was a little spotty. But there wasn't any hurry. It is right in the main square, which I referred to as Elephant Duomo. I'm not sure what the locals call it. But perfect for people watching and enjoying the morning or sometimes afternoon for us.

Well this might just be the best little spot I've found for granita. The brioche was better than…read moreany I've ever had. So fresh and warm from the oven. We stopped in during a jog along the sea. We sat outside on a beautiful day at a small cafe table. Just perfect. The service was quick and friendly. But the quality of the food was top notch. I got half pistachio and half almond. The flavors were so fresh and intense. I'm craving more just thinking about it. The best I've had. I will be back!

Ah, the Sweet Life Cafe…read more This is the bar to be at if you're looking to see and be seen in the lovely piazza of Nicolosi. It is the most prominent bar you can see if you're standing anywhere in the square and its location pretty much overlooks everything. Yes, it's a power location! Their drinks are awesome as is their food. If you're there just for drinks or something, they will give you some bar food (peanuts, chips, small pastries, bread/honey) so it's awesome. You can't not go to Nicolosi without visiting this very central cafe for a quick bite.

The mall's food court was hot and i didn't have a good vibe from the last time. After some searching for what is open we settled on this spot. We were able to find parking and got seated immediately. The online ordering is a pretty cool feature. The food was on point. The nachos could have been a little hotter as the cheese wasn't fully melted. I had the chicken and beer with honey and it hit the spot. My fried and her daughter got wraps and they finished them both. They have a pretty expansive menu for lunch/dinner and breakfast. Their desserts will catch your eye as well.

The customer service is amazing, the food is good, this is my go to spot when I want brunch food.read more
