Locale che già conoscevo ed in cui sono ritornato volentieri riconfermando la buona opinione che mi ero fatto la volta precedente. Cucina molto attenta, servizio eccellete sia per quanto riguarda la tempestività che la cordialità. Buono l'ambiente in generale che sfrutta al meglio una sala pur non amplissima ma in grado di offrire un comfort adeguato.

A huge disappointment. This restaurant was recommended and looked great when we checked it out the night before, but expectations were dashed. The service and food were both unacceptable. The Maître d’ ignored our table and all but one of the others, focusing his charm and attention on a table with two young women. The result was a schism between waiters and the kitchen. For the starter they served the wrong dish to one guest and another had to wait five minutes longer for the carpaccio to de-frost (which it almost did). For the main course it was the same: one diner was served the wrong dish and another had to wait for theirs. No apologies. Two of the main courses were served with tepid meat and cold vegetables. It was clear that communication between kitchen and front of house was shot. The Maître d’ was unprofessional, ignored our table almost entirely and the other waiters were friendly but chaotic. It felt like the kitchen was using good quality ingredients, but was out of kilter. This standard of service and food was completely unacceptable for a restaurant with quality aspirations. Other reviews show the restaurant can perform well, but the maître d’ and kitchen seemed to be completely distracted this night. It was an awful experience. Beware.

Nice food reasonably priced in a bustling side street off the main strip through Taormina. Service was excellent and the waitress in particular engaged with us in a really positive and friendly way.

We walked past this restaurant a few times driving our trip ma d finally decided to book. The staff were welcoming to our family which included to young children. The menu is high end, but there is something for everyone. The quality of food and service was outstanding.

Good food right the the centre of Taormina. However, the options on the menu were not quite the same as those listed in The Fork. The staff was kind and available.

The food was good, service was shambolic and one waiter took food to a table that was wrong and once he realised his mistake took it straight to another table even though some of it had been eaten.

We thoroughly enjoyed eating at this restaurant. The spaghetti cooked in red wine with pancetta was amazing, the best pasta dish my husband had ever tasted.

Great produce, well put together to highlight the ingredients not the chefs artistic desires. A very satisfying food experience.

We enjoyed our dinner very much. The service (by owners?) Was very friendly, but they got so busy that one waiter really wasn't adequate, so there was too much time waiting. Very nice atmosphere, and a touch of class on the details and decorations, like the table cloth and glasses and plates. A cut above the other places we tried oin Taoromina. We would repeat.
