We stayed in the Sciacca area for vacation recently and our hotel butler advised us that Porto San…read morePaola was a great spot nearby that many locals would eat at for a consistently good dining and servicing experience. They made us a reservation same day for dinner and we arrived promptly at our dining time and were seated immediately at a table overlooking the water and city. The views are purely stunning for sunset! The servers were all so nice and I believe it's a small family owned establishment, and I think the owners were also waiting on us at some point during the meal. All of the restaurant employees were so nice, welcoming, and offered to answer any questions we had on the menu. We started with a bottle of white wine and it was amazing! I think most wines of their menu were less than 25 euros a bottle. They also provided us with a basket of bread to start complimentary as well. We started with Panelle to start as an appetizer (little chickpea fritters, they were amazing! 5 euros for I believe they were 5 fritters). We also ordered the Busiate alla Norma (13 euros, this was the best and freshest pasta you could imagine, truly amazing and they split it for us in the kitchen and was plenty big for two people to share). For entrees, we both ordered the Filetto di pesce fresco (fresh fish filet, 20 euros), and included a few small vegetables as well. We also ended with a Canolli for desert, and OMG it was the best cannoli I've ever had. I believe it was 3 euros and the flavor was out of this world. We split the cannoli in two, but I think I could have eaten two of them just myself! I really felt like we were eating in a Michelin starred restaurant, the food quality and preparation were amazing, along with the service was very white glove as well. If you're in the Sciacca area, definitely give them a try!

While driving through Sciacca during lunch time I came across Al Faro and gave it a shot. When I…read moreentered I was the only one there, soon to change, and I can see why. The restaurant totally exceeded my expectations with limited offerings open. First the staff were all wonderful. Though we had a little communication barrier, google translate more than made up for that and I was able to order without any major issues. I had the eggplant caponata which I have to say was not my favorite; great ingredients for sure, but in the end too sweet for my liking. However, the Busiate with swordfish which is local Sicilian favorite more than made up it. The sun dried tomatoes, fresh lemon and parsley was just a great combination with the fish. I could not finish it all but that was not due to the taste. I was just simply stuffed. Do not be afraid to try Al Faro if in the area. They are located right by the dock with plenty of parking, and you'll have a great experience.

Our dinner at MATES on our first night in Caltabellotta is one that we'll be talking about for a…read morelong, long time. It will be included in the stories we tell (to anyone who will listen) of our wonderful vacation in Italy, and our special time in Sicily. It is that good! MATES is a perfect little restaurant in a beautiful, rustic building in the heart of Caltabellotta. This is family-run, authentic Sicilian - and the family (the Augellos) are delightful. Sons Giuseppe and Leonardo were our servers in the dining room, providing excellent service that was both friendly and professional (and adorable). Father Felice was our gracious and welcoming host, and mother Laura provided the amazing culinary experience from the kitchen. There is no set menu - but trust Laura and you will not be disappointed. The quality and hospitality at MATES are unsurpassed! We started with a variety of antipasti which included (among other things) cheese and cured meats, eggplant caponata, and fresh sheep milk ricotta - all were beautifully flavored and complimentary to one another. Primi piatti included risotto with spring vegetables and fusilli pasta dish with eggplant. Così delizioso! Our stomachs were quite full when the secondi piatti showed up - but we could not resist the delectable slow-roasted pork shank, accented with fresh rosemary and accompanied by perfectly roasted potatoes. There was also a lovely beef dish - though the pork outshined it. And now for the dessert. You need look no farther than Laura's cannoli, which like everything else, are made in-house. To say they are the best in the world is, well, completely accurate! At least in _my_ world. And I have done some cannoli'ing. I have cannoli'd across Italy, and in the Little Italys of NYC and San Diego, and from San Franciso's North Beach to Boston's North End and Providence's Federal Hill. After having cannoli at MATES, no one else compares. Essi sono la perfezione! To sum it up: Quando si visita la Sicilia (che si dovrebbe), è necessario trovare la strada per Caltabellotta (si dovrebbe!) e godere di una cena meravigliosa con Augellos a MATES. Il vostro stomaco e il vostro cuore vi ringrazierà! E 'stato un privilegio per mangiare qui! P.S. The Augellos also own the nearby Solto le Stelle B&B which I will review separately but also worth 5 stars - rest your head at Solto le Stelle and feed your belly at MATES and you will be so very happy. You will fall in love with Caltabellotta (and the Augellos) as I did!

His homemade juice is delicious, the pasta and the salads are really good and the cannoli was one of the best we've ordered so far.

So if you're in the area, whether it's just for a snack, a drink or a full meal with desert like we've done it - come and check it out! You'll love it! Especially if you're vegetarian or vegan and you're looking for some healthy options, his menu has way more vegan options than an average Mediterranean restaurant here on Sicily.
