The waiter helped us order the best pizzas they offered (all the food was delicious) & the menu accommodates for people who are gluten free. Unfortunately I forget the specific pizza I had, it's the one with green sauce in the photo, probably the best pizza I've ever ate. The waiter was awesome and fast. The man I assume to be the owner gave us a water bottle on our way out, it was such a fantastic meal & the service was A+ as well.

If it's hot, but theres a breeze, this is the place to come to get relief. Sit outside in the back part of the open restaurant and enjoy the air! Locals come here to fetch their dessert, btw.

I got the pizza parma which was a good choice but would have been 5 stars if the crust was a bit crunchier in the middle. Overall a decent meal and lovely freshly squeezed blood orange juice. When I visited on a Saturday evening they had a fun band duo playing music which really made for a great atmosphere even when they hummed through some of the lyrics they seemed to forget :) I would certainly recommend dropping by here if you are on a stromboli cruise even if it's just for a drink and enjoy the view. They also have several other food options such as buffet, set menu, antipasti, and plenty of pasta options.

It's my third stay on Stromboli and I'm happy to have finally discovered this spot for our morning coffee. The staff was very patient and friendly. Our croissants were warm and fresh. Based on this positive experience, we might try dinner another time.

We ordered a 1/2 liter of house white along with dinner, it was just fine. Espresso and a liquor to finish off. Very reasonably priced, good atmosphere (above street, with vine covered trellis ceiling, away from the more touristy port area), though oddly relatively empty (we were there on a Wed night, 9:30-11:30pm, which would usually be a busy time). Maybe we are just a bit ahead of tourist season (it is mid-June) and traffic is light? I was most impressed by our waiter, who did everything right, left us in peace, but always had an eye on us in case we wanted something. Very mellow, yet attentive. When a single diner turned up at 11:30pm, he was not turned away, even though the staff had just cleared the tables. No snootiness here.

Oh my goodness. This place was amazing…read more I'm not sure where to start, so let's start with the view. The pictures uploaded by others show the view from the restaurant, and it doesn't matter where you're seated--floor to ceiling glass windows give diners an unobstructed view of the shimmering Mediterranean sea. (I'll try to upload a photo as well.) I was there for lunch in August with a few friends (most of whom were locals). We ordered a number of seafood appetizers to share, including raw shrimp and other fish. Presentation was beautiful, and everything was fresh. For the main course, I had spaghetti with sea urchin. Simple, right? Yes, simple done right. The pasta was cooked al dente and smoothly mixed with the sea urchin. Every bite delivered a heady mix of perfectly cooked pasta flavored with the slight brininess from the sea urchin. I finished off my plate fast and looked hopefully at my friends' plates, hoping they weren't able to finish theirs so I could have more. Alas, they seemed to like the pasta just as much as I did as their plates were empty as well. A few others ordered a variety of cooked seafood, including swordfish. Their orders were presented on a heated tile of pink Himalyan salt, which I found fascinating. Yes, I'm easily impressed. :D I tried a bit of swordfish, and though I'm typically not a fan of this particular fish, it was amazing. We finished off our meal with some espressos (passed on dessert as we were all so full). Amazing lunch. The price was more than reasonable too, considering the breathtaking view, the warm and friendly service, and the quality and freshness of the food.

Amazing dinner, a little gem in Messina. Loved it! I would return next time I am going to be here.read more

The risotto was too Al dente the seafood, except for the shrimp and clams tasted old and rubbery. The shrimp and clams were excellent. I had a glass of Messina wine, Malvasia, which was delicious. A bit on the sweet side. Hubby had biere Messina which was excellent as well. The cannoli, which originated in Sicily, was delicious. The shell was a bit thick, but the filling was creamy deliciousness.
