One was just a very thin piece of ham and a piece of cheese that felt like they left the paper on between slices (5 Euros). The other was mixed marinated vegetables, but the sandwich was very dry (6 Euros). We definitely did not get our money's worth.

Awesome sandwiches. We got #9, chef select. I asked if we could get prosciutto and the waiter told…read moreme yes, but then unfortunately they brought us a regular ham . The sandwich was still awesome with crusty bread, eggplant, mozzarella cheese, lettuce tomato, but I was looking forward to prosciutto.... They also serve awesome looking cheese boards and salads Service fast. Ambiance good. In The market.

This place is busy, and it's totally understandable why. They do primarily one thing - sandwiches -…read moreand they do it well! They are located at the end of the street market and have seating in front of the store and across the street. I went there twice and both times, they filled up quickly. Because they are run like a well-oiled machine, any line moves quickly. I ordered a take away sandwich for my husband the first time because he was going fishing the next day and didn't know if lunch was going to be provided. It was and when he shared his sandwich with the captain and first mate, they were so excited as they knew about the place and said it's "world famous." The second time, I was doing a street food tour while my husband fished and the guide took me to ... Caseificio Borderi! I had a lovely plate of meats, cheeses and caponata. Don't let the line scare you away. This place is worth the few minutes wait to get seated or, at least to grab a sandwich to go. It's places like this that give you the true taste of Sicily!

PANINI ON THE BEACH…read more This bar/restaurant is located at the far west end of Marina de Modica. It is the last place to hangout and eat at before the boardwalk ends. During the month of August the beach is packed and at night everyone goes for a walk & grabs something to eat or drink. The prices here are not bad. The five food trucks you pass on the way here have cheaper prices but this place offers a great place to sit and enjoy your time. I also want to give you an important tip...make sure you bring euros because this place doesn't take any plastic credit cards. We arrived here after a giant rain storm. The restaurant was empty. The staff was busy drying off tables and trying to get the location ready in case customers decide to leave the safety of their homes. About 90% of the restaurant is open air and not protected by a roof but that wasn't going to stop us from having a good night. We actually enjoyed watching the lightning storm as it passed over the Mediterranean Sea. We were seated at our table and ordered a large Birra alla spina moretti which means a big ass cold Italian made beer. Italy typically sells two choices: a small or large beer. I highly recommend going with the large beer and sharing it. You get more beer and it's much cheaper unless you don't like sharing with others. The food menu was very limited and this is because they are cooking in a shack on the beach. I'm sure the kitchen was the size of a closet. My little one was hungry and we were excited to see a kids menu which really doesn't exist around here. Italian kids will typically get a cheese pizza or French fries. Actually they get the French fries on the pizza. I tried it once and I'm not a fan. We ordered her the Cotoletta & patate al forno which means chicken fingers and kick ass potatoes. Wow the potatoes were out of this world. I was having envy of my daughters side dish. The potatoes were very tasty and had a perfect mix of fresh rosemary & olive oil. My little foodie was in heaven. She even loved her chicken. I believe the chef squeezed fresh lemon on the chicken like a German Schnitzel. Again my little foodie loves sour and liked the addition of the lemon flavor on her chicken breading. This kids meal could have been a complete disaster but my little girl gobbled it up. She is also giving this place 5 stars. Kids love Yelp too. My wife ordered the Rucalo, stracciatella di bufala, capuliato & funghi panini which translates into a Veggie Panini. I ordered the Prosciutto Crudo, mozzarella di bufala, patate al forno & capuliato which translates into the best Italian sandwich ever. I hope you enjoy the Italian descriptions of the dishes. I thought they looked beautiful and wanted to share them. It certainly is more beautiful in Italian then English. My sandwich was really good and the best part is I had the same amazing potatoes my daughter had directly on my sandwich. That was a huge score for me. The bread was perfectly toasted. It wasn't too hard or crispy which can make biting into a sandwich unenjoyable. I hate when a bread is over-toasted and I feel like I'm going to lose a tooth. The prosciutto was very good, in fact I could not find a bad piece in Italy anywhere and trust me I kept trying. The fresh mozzarella was also fantastic and it better be because I'm sure it was made at a farm up the road. The ingredients here were top notch which delivered a crazy good sandwich. I wish I could order a sandwich this delish in America. My wife loved her veggie panini too. I did not get a taste of it but she expressed the same love of the sandwich that I did for mine. We had truly found panini nirvana while sitting on the Mediterranean Sea. This place also gets crowded in the evening. They have a DJ booth built right on the rocks of the beach. The DJ was starting to play music as we were finishing dinner. The people of Modica left the safety of their homes and started checking out the beach for their nightly walk. It is amazing how this has never changed over the years. Everyone from babies to teenagers to parents and grandparents come out to socialize along the beach. It is things like this that never change and it makes me feel good. If you find yourself at the southernmost point of Italy then you are here. This great little beach town is a great place to rest and relax. There are several places on the beach for food and drink but I highly recommend this place. The location is perfect. The prices are great in fact for our family of 3 we had drinks and dinner for 22 euro. Now that's a deal. So bookmark this place and have a panini by the sea and those amazing patate al forno. Trust me on this one.

Absolutely wonderful. We picked up a sandwich to take back to the hotel. Put it in the fridge. An…read morehour before dinner took it out to come to room temperature and it was perfect!!! We ordered the Licuzzui...the spicy sandwich with a kick. It had spicy Ventricina salami, roasted grilled peppers, house made spicy pepper paste, roasted ricotta and lettuce. It was all on a sesame roll that was as fresh as could be. It was huge. The two of us could barely finish it. It was packed full of meat and cheese. I could have honestly had less meat and cheese and more spicy veggies. Total cost $7 Eurs. What a bargain. Service was swift, friendly and accurate. Highly recommend. Might even return tomorrow!!

The manager with attitude approached me because I didn't eat the carpaccio, changed me anyway in full!!! I told her I was eating the same carpaccio the previous day and it was delicious.

A small an unpretentious place, it is manned by a very friendly staff. My brother and I happened to get the same sandwich; a coincidence. Salami and provolone was what we ordered. We were asked if we wanted sharp provolone and we both jumped on that. I'm tired of the wimpy provolone at home. He grabbed a fresh roll and made the sandwich up right in front of us. Our server gave us each a sample of the meat from a 8" diameter huge salami roll before making the sandwiches. Fresh and delicious. Quick and friendly service all rate a "cinque!"

Small quaint deli-like bistro and right away we are jabbering with the owner and son. Wasn't soon and we'd worked out what to eat and drink. THEN the rain came down hard and the thunder rolled right over our heads. We were going to be here awhile. What am opportunity to try so many home made foods! Eggplant; can NEVER go wrong with this. Lasagna, bean soup, a pasta soup, Sicilian beer, ricotta cheese, rice balls etc..We became interactive with other locals staying out of the rain. With really amazing tasty food whilst dining with the locals of Regusa Ibla, we made memories for life. Oh, the bill came to 24€!
