RISTORANTE LA BRACE
Read moreIn this small air-conditioned restaurant, rich in colors and atmosphere with its beautiful stone vaults and red walls, one sits down willingly to spend a good culinary moment at an affordable price. The menu is limited but effective, we like the concept of the chosen menus: meat or fish, declined according to the season and the local ingredients, as the rabbit in the oven, the home-made tournedos or theinvoltini of swordfish, a delight. The recipes are simple but tasty, that's the main thing. The wine list is also very Sicilian and harmonizes the tastes.
IL PIGNATARO TRATTORIA
Read moreSimple, friendly, tasty and cheap. In the high season, the restaurant is open every day non-stop. The house is run by a family. Everyone pitches in, and it works! The cuisine is that of Sicilian grandmothers. Try the risotto with fish from the day's catch, or a famous fish fry, delicious. The pasta is also appetizing. The reception is very friendly, the owner will always have a little story to tell you, and in French please. The terrace overlooks the port.
LILIES CLUB
Read moreA restaurant, a brasserie type very close to the sea. Good service and excellent dishes. Ideal for quick snacks or pizza.
PIERO
Read moreOne of the best restaurants in Messina, very Sicilian, simple, with 3 small comfortable and well decorated rooms. Excellent address. Think of reserving and planning your best clothes for the occasion. Chic ambience!
GLI ATENATI PUB
Read moreA good-natured (and maybe even kid-friendly) pub-restaurant near the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele III. The menu is particularly extensive. There are many vegetarian and gluten-free dishes. There is a large selection of salads, paninis and well executed pizzas. Without being a gastronomic address, the Gli Atenati is a nice place for a cheap dinner in Messina until late, but above all a good bar to enjoy a craft beer. The atmosphere is particularly local, which is its charm.
LA CAMPAGNOLA
Read moreThis trattoria, which is located on a small street perpendicular to the lungomare, offers honest Sicilian cuisine. The fish of the day is usually a good choice. It is accompanied by delicious grilled vegetables. One can also be tempted by the antipasto La Campagnola, an assortment of local starters, by generous and ultra fresh seafood platters or by pizzas, deliciously cooked in a wood oven. The service is very friendly. Do not hesitate to ask for a table in the backyard, very pleasant.
IL NORMANNO
Read moreImpeccable service, abundant dishes despite the refinement of the kitchen and reasonable prices make it a valuable place. You can dine in the alley without too much meeting the groups that are walking through these gentle nights. Everyone says it: It is certainly the best restaurant in Cefalù.
ANTICA FILANDA
Read moreRecognized as the best restaurant in Sicily in 2013, Antica Filanda has nothing to prove with its @ chefs. And yet it never stops innovating on your plate or on the order with menus on tactile shelves.
RISTORANTE TYNDARIS
Read moreWe love the spectacular and beautiful panoramic view of Lake Martinelli from this restaurant. Go there for lunch to make the most of the incredible panorama that the terrace offers. The food is good and generous. Special mention for the pizza alla Norma, an adaptation of the eponymous Sicilian pasta recipe (with tomato sauce, fried eggplant, grated salted ricotta and basil), for the famous seafood risotto and penne a la Tyndaris, or the orecchiette with prawns and pistachios.
