We started with one and eventually, we all ended up ordering one. They have indoor and outdoor seating and the service was excellent.

This was quite the happening place when our party arrived in the afternoon. Tables were filled and…read moreit took a moment for us to get seated. After being seated, we were never provided a menu of any sort and actually sat for several minutes before someone came by for our order, still with no menu. Regardless, we knew we were ordering granitas, brioche, and the arancini. Granitas - They verbally gave us a limited list of what flavors were available. We tried the almond, strawberry, pistachio, and limon. All flavors were delicious, not overly sweet, and very refreshing. A lighter more slush like version of gelato. Brioche - The brioche here is light and delicious, served warm, and is an amazing accompaniment to granitas. Definitely order one to balance out the granita if it gets too cold. Arancini - The ragu arancini is absolutely amazing. It was actually the better of the three items ordered in my opinion. I came for the desserts, but found myself fully enjoying this item more. The ragu is hearty and the flavors robust. A masticating delight of flavors. If you're not a smoker, definitely try to top for a seat indoors. Sitting outdoors will likely expose you to several patrons and even passersby or individuals sitting on nearby benches to cigarette smoke. Overall, the food and desserts here are amazing. I wish I had the stomach and time to try more of what they had to offer. Everything looked amazing and all seemed to be very reasonably priced.

Avoid Pasticceria Savia at all costs. The staff were…read moreshockingly rude and aggressive. My mother, who is disabled and uses a walking stick, simply wanted to sit while a table was being prepared. Instead of showing even basic decency, a staff member repeatedly dismissed her, saying "no, no" in an aggressive and disrespectful way and physically pushing her away from sitting. It was humiliating to watch. We waited about 20 minutes and were treated like we didn't matter the entire time. There was zero respect, zero explanation, and absolutely no empathy. It got worse!my sister tried to use the restroom while we were waiting, and it was disgusting. No soap, no toilet paper, and clearly not cleaned. We ended up leaving because the treatment was so offensive. Between the appalling behavior and the filthy facilities, this place does not deserve your time or money.

This is a wonderful little dessert shop just next to the Chiesa di Santa Lucia alla badia, so if…read moreyou are in Palazzo Arcivescovile you can't miss it! They have 4 different options for Cannoli the plain, lemon, chocolate and pistachio and two sizes Small "piccolo" or Large "grande". I would suggest if you have to wait a while for dinner consider the grande option! Prices start from 2 euros upto 3.5 so it's a fairly good price for a decent Cannoli, I went with the pistachio one in a small size as I didn't want to ruin my appetite.

We were on our way back to our B&B in Siracusa from Ortigia Island. We planned to skip this place…read moreand go to a gelateria closer to where we were staying, so that our goodies wouldn't melt before we got home. But, the crowd here was just so huge that we thought there must be something worth trying here. I'm so glad that we came! The name of this place means "crazy desire" in Italian - Someone correct me if I'm wrong! - And it's not an exaggeration because every single item here with me covetous, and a little bit drooly! In the end I went with a "tartufo," which is a heart of ice cream and ganache wrapped with a chocolate shell. TO DIE FOR. In a little bit of serendipity, as I was asking silly questions about different flavors and gluten, I realized I was chatting with the owner of the place. He talked to me a little bit about the prevalence of celiac disease in Italy - that's why you need to only ask at most places, and they will have a gluten-free substitute for most pastas, pizzas, and even some dessert items! It was just a nice treat to talk to the owner of such a busy place, on a busy night, as two out of towners who just happened to be passing by. He didn't speak much English, so we were speaking in Italian the whole time... But don't let that dissuade you from coming here! If you're in Siracusa, do not miss this place, you won't regret it.
