The atmosphere is lively, the hospitality unlike any restaurant we visited. Very family forward. Ladies kept kissing my daughter's head. The men kept tapping it. They love children.

Right off the bat they tell you this is a fish restaurant and that the menu changes weekly. You can see the fresh fish of the day as is is brought to you table side and is priced based on the kilo. My wife and I ordered a starter, pasta and fish to share which was more than enough food for the two. We also had a glass of wine which wasn't a house wine but essentially picked based on our preference. We ended up getting the raw starter which included raw shrimp, langastinos, oyster, amberjack carpaccio and white tuna tartare. Then we had a seafood pasta with finally a fillet of amberjack served with broccoli and some mashed potatoes. All in with wine the bill came to about $150 euro. Also the bread was excellent and freshly made in house, it's charged to the table but honestly worth the $3 per person.

Very polite and professional. Food came out in a perfectly timely manner. Ordered liter of red house wine, side salad and spicy salami pizza to start. Pizza was amazing very delicious and piled with spicy salami. Yum! Next ordered the trofie pasta with tuna, olives and capers (local dish) and a spicy shrimp spaghetti dish which was off the chart. Both pasta dishes were fantastic and the portion size was big. The interior of the restaurant was very cool. They have a great wine display and extensive selection of great wines. I highly recommend eating here. Initially I was skeptical because it is in a super touristy location but I have no regrets. Great food, service and ambiance. Grazie!!

The window sign said that they are open 24 hours so I think this would be a great place to grab a snack late at night. We got here after swimming in the Ionian Sea and me and my co workers were starving from all the swimming and fun we just had and figured we'd grab a bite to eat before heading back up to Taormina. Had some wine and some food and wasn't disappointed. Had the Macaroni al norma and it was very flavorful and good. The bruschetta was about average and the bread was a little crunchy and I didn't really like it. Overall , I wouldn't mind coming back here to eat some food before heading up to Taormina on the Gondola!

This year, our outdoor table was pushed against the toilets out of the restaurant, and so narrow we had to sit side by side instead of facing each other. When we gently joked about it feeling like a school desk rather than a romantic dinner, the owner reacted with shouting and open hostility, said he'd had enough of complaints, and walked off. We stood there for several minutes expecting him to find a solution -- instead we watched him take orders from other tables while ignoring us completely. We left without eating. The front-of-house management and the owner's attitude have deteriorated badly. A simple table change (booked with one month, shame on them) would have fixed everything,

But everything was just absolute perfection and deserving of their Michelin stars. We had the ocean views where we cut our wedding cake. We had a 6 course menu with hors d'oeuvres served in the beginning before we were seated indoors. Everything was so delicious. Our guests said that this was the best wedding meal that they have ever had. The service also was IMPECCABLE. They were on top of filling our wine and just so immaculate. The dish that stood out to me was the homemade ravioli and the lamb. SO buttery and tender and just insanely rich with goodness. Everyone enjoyed the ambiance and the food the most of all. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our wedding and host our reception. Definitely will be coming back here for our wedding anniversary and enjoy a lovely date here.
