The best meal I’ve ever had. The food is heaven and the service combines the best of the two worlds: a small town family-owned vibe and a fancy restaurant.

Everything was soo perfect! We had a great time, Carlo was giving us advices and he assured that we had the greatest experience. Beyond words, a local family reataurant made with a lot of passion for people and food. Please try it, you will not regret it, the prices are very good and the food is absolutely amazing(the sea food is very fresh, they change menu based on what the fishermans bring that day). Thank you very much for this experience!!!!! We hope your business will grow so much because you deserve it!

Sunday 2 March’25. We were cycling around Capo D’Orlando looking for somewhere to have Sunday lunch and came across this modern small restaurant by chance. What a find, the owner was very welcoming and took the time to explain the menu to us, we went with his suggestions and had what was possibly the best meal we have had in Italy so far. Expect to pay €50-60 a head but it was absolutely worth it.

A beautiful hidden gem. Locally owned and operated by husband and wife team. Very impressive authentic family recipes, from the Alla Norma to the Tiramisù, it was heaven. Great wine selection too with many local recommendations. What a find!! Bravo!!
