Ordered dishes that included fried zucchini, eggplant, ravioli, and specialty pastas which were all very good. The service was friendly, and the vibe made it easy to sit back, relax, and lose track of time. Great spot to unwind and enjoy some solid food in a seriously impressive setting. If you're in Ragusa and want pasta with a side of history, this is the move.

For our appetizers we ordered the meatballs, potato balls, and the fried ragusana cheese. The meatballs were incredible. I am very picky with meatballs that are made by anyone outside my family - these were excellent. For dinner we ordered the pork shank (special), cavati alla Norma, and chicken. We shared a liter of house red. For desert we ordered the tiramisu and the biancomangiare. Both were great ! We sat outdoors. Service was quick and friendly. Make a reservation !!!

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.

Let me start off this review by saying this was my favorite meal when visiting Sicily. There aren't…read moreenough accolades that I could give to this restaurant. We went to this restaurant after walking out of someplace else. Because it was during the off-season, we had the entire place to ourselves. It is quiet and romantic, and definitely a date night spot. The menu is very authentic and very local. For example, we saw that one of the first courses had donkey sauce. At first, we thought it was a translation error (don't look it up on urban dictionary either!) but then saw that there also was a donkey chop on the menu. It turns out that donkey is a Ragusan specialty; we passed. I ordered the pasta with bottarga sauce and my husband got pasta with lemon sauce. While I love bottarga, I liked my husband's dish even more. Both dishes had wonderfully fresh pasta and were well sauced. The bread that was brought to the table became the benchmark that we used to judge bread for the remainder of the journey. There were three kinds, all of which were homemade: breadsticks, little rolls that are similar to pao de queijo, and a sort-of sourdough. Oh, the carbs were all so lovely. For dessert, I had a cannoli that was the size of flashlight but worth every calorie. The shell was thin and the cream was not too sweet. I can't recall what my husband ordered. My husband had a glass of wine that was lovely. The restaurant has a wonderful selection including wines by the glass. Even though ordered by the glass, a fresh bottle was opened table side complete with wine aerator pourer. Service was lovely; attentive but not overbearing. If this place was local, I would come way more often much to dismay of my jeans. Please visit if you are ever in Ragusa. One of the best dining experiences I have had in years.

Carmelo the sommelier was dull. He would say the bare minimum, and then gone. He expressed no joy nor wanted to get involved with any small talk. He possibly look under the weather. He was a kill joy! He even served a bold red wine ( to pair with our meet) very chilled. Thus the wine tasted like rubbing alcohol when combined with the meat! Able to get better pairing after 20+ minutes bringing it up to room temperature (which should have been done already Carmelo) but by then food was getting cold. Price for this M-rated place was very reasonable but with this poor wine experience I'd maybe come back for the great food only.
