Only gripe is they seem to charge a premium for the location. I guess this must be a resort town or something, but it was nearly double the price for the same dishes you could get in Palermo. Quality food and wine though, even at the price it is worth checking out.

The fried sardines anti pasta was Cefalu's answer to KFC and hits all the seafood notes: fresh, crunchy and just a little bit funky the way an oily fish should be. The pasta finocchio con sarde, the best I had in Sicily. The next the day the wind blew up a huge sea and the rain came sideways when the sun didn't break through. Just when the rain started up again we ducked into Al Faro for lunch. I had the fried sardines because WHY NOT? The special pasta was linguini with sea urchins. Incredible! Had a couple of glasses of Grillo, a double espresso and hopped in the Gulia heading back toward Palermo. Two great meals, wonderful, friendly staff and a memory that will last a long time.

We got the beef tartar, which resembled a cheesecake. The various textures within this dish were complex and unique. My favorite was the duck breast - so tender and delicious.

Much of their wine is in bottles so if you want a glass the options are limited. Our server basically asked me if I wanted white or red, dry or not dry, and he put in the order. I have no idea what I even drank! The food was fine. Our favorite was the salad, which I think came with smoked swordfish and salmon. The octopus was a touch over cooked but the flavor was nice. Definitely a pleasant experience!

The glow of a small group drinking and chatting inside drew me in. A great view through tall windows on the cold rain outside: In warmer months I have no doubt the guests spill out onto the adjacent footpath. Staff were welcoming and happy to help an English speaker and recommended one of the smaller mixed meat and cheese platters. Pecorino, baked ricotta, bufala mozzarella, spicy sausage, porchetta, donkey mortadella... all delicious. My eyes were (unfortunately) bigger than my stomach - I had more than enough to eat. Service was fast, and smiling.
