We had some really good pizza while we were in Sicily, and this was, for me, #1. We specifically…read morepicked this because it was (1) off the beaten path and (2) very well rated. Come here to have lunch with the locals, and get a really, really, (really) good pizza. (If you're not in the mood, there's a lot of other options - we sat near plenty of pasta eaters if that's what you are in the mood for.) This is the definition of a quick lunch spot, the chairs, tables...super casual. Almost like a cafeteria, but maybe one slight notch above from an ambiance perspective. Not much AC, super hot, who cares. I got a gigantic, ice cold beer to mitigate the heat, and it was a perfect pairing to the pizza. Super simple - sauce, cheese, prosciutto. They even cut it in half for us since we were splitting it. Somehow those three ingredients came together so perfectly that the pizza was almost creamy. That pizza, a 66cl beer, and a huge water - super delicious, we walked out full, and it was only €16. Insanity.

We ordered fried swordfish, chicken cutlets, pasta with fish, lasagna with eggplant. The service was extremely good and the owners very friendly.

Highly recommend this place for food and service.

The food was great and the customer service was the BEST I have had during my stay in Sicily. I had the porcini mushrooms as an appetizer and the Irish steak for dinner. The meal was served with a baked potato, salad, and bruschetta. My steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly!! Just a tip that I was given...if you want your steak medium rare, order it as medium and you will get medium rare...worked for me. We also ordered the house red wine to share...also very good! For dessert I had the Chocolate Soufflé with pistachio gelato...sooo yummy!!! ALL of the staff members were great...they made dinner much more enjoyable! I will definitely dine here again the next time I visit!

I don't know if he was a sommelier, but he certainly knew all about the wines in the region.

It wasn't a fluke, staff is really that knowledgeable about wine and food, they really are that friendly, music is really that on trend and food is really that good. Night 1 had a ribeye cooked perfectly medium with salt flakes on top. 2nd night tataki with sesame, almonds and honey with sweet potatoes on the side. Red wine was still on point. There are amazing places to eat in Catania so it means a lot to me to go to the same restaurant 2 times in 2 nights.

While it wasn't on the menu, our server, Gabriela(sp?) said he could get it for us so the decision was made where to eat. We sat at a table outside. The menu is available in English which made ordering easier. We had some of their house white wine, and I ordered some spaghetti with clams to go with my friends seafood plate. The food came up quickly and was quite good. Our server spoke very good English which was a surprise in this town that is just starting to cater to tourists. Turns out he learned it while playing PlayStation with Italian subtitles so that explained his American accent! And he was a great server- very attentive and bending over backwards to make sure we were satisfied! Another surprise? The bathroom. Hands down this was the BEST bathroom i was in during my entire 12 days in Sicily. There was a toilet seat on the toilet, hand-soap, hand dryer and toilet paper. And it was super clean. Given we were in the market area I expected so much less. Our bill with s couple glasses of wine and 2 entrees was about 35 Euro so pretty reasonable as well. If you find yourself in Catania- check this place out. The food and service are worth a visit. . . Not to mention that amazing bathroom!!
