8/10The service and view was excellent (we were the only customers). Unfortunately, the food was just not good. The bread and olive oil was the best course. I can only assume that fish is hard to get during the slow season? I would expect the food to be better during the busy season. Neither seafood dish was fresh. As a fisherman, I have caught and prepared both meals that we ordered, and would through out what was served to us. We were really bummed out.

8/10Everything was fine, no major issues, but has room for improvement. The courses didn't come out together leading the following course to be room temperature/cold. But the food was good.

5/10Promised much but disappointed. The meal started well but we experienced quite a delay in getting our main courses. The other couples in the restaurant seemed to have a better and more expeditious experience, which was a little perplexing since we arrived first. When our main course finally arrived the food was lukewarm and cold, which led to a particularly disappointing experience.

10/10+3We had 2 exceptional meals and everything we ordered was a wow! Great attention to detail and wonderful combinations of local ingredients combined for a great dining experience. Can’t wait to dine with them again.

9/10The view of the Valley of Temples at night at a table by the railing is magical. Food was good but not great. Cod, snapper, tunaand gnocchi were ordered. Gnocchi was a bit overcooked. Cod was done in a red beet something that made it look like I was served a bloodline. I was not. Tuna was very good but lacked a bit of seasoning…something to punch it up. We would go back and try other dishes.

6.5/10The restaurant was nicely decorated and in a great location overlooking the Valley of the Temples. We were hoping for a great experience. However, service was a little disjointed and the food was very disappointing. Our tuna tartare was ok but too cold. But the two pasta dishes really did not work. Flavors did not not work together, one pasta was way too al dente. The side dish of melon, olive, fennel was just a solid miss. The flavors did not go together at all. I think the chef may be trying too hard. On paper the combo of ingredients sounded good but the result was bad. Too top things off they moved a family with two small toddlers next to us mid meal. So what started as a relaxing small dining area became super disruptive for the 5 other tables in the space. Would not recommend.

10/10We had a seat right at the window looking out over the temples. It was fabulous! The food was good or very good. The service started out great. As it got busier, our waiter kind of abandoned us, or sections changed or something. From then on, random staff would come over occasionally. Despite this, this meal ranks in my top four most memorable of my life! The view, the service at the beginning, the friendly face at the end, the amazing view, the music (it was fabulous!), and of course the food was good! Great cocktail also-Sicilian Spritz!

9.5/10The wine list is impressive and pair well with the varied course selections. Food is delicious and the view is stunning. Overall, this is an excellent restaurant to dine with during a trip to Agrigento, Sicily.

10/10What a beautiful restaurant! Both inside and outside are lovely. The food was incredible and delicious, so artfully prepared. The recommended wine was perfect. We still talk about it! We would definitely return here.

7/10The service started well but as soon as the tables were 30% full in was spotty. And the food was ok, not great. We had 2 appetizers, 2 pastas and a main… only the main really impressed. View and ambiance is really nice tho.

10/10Delicious food in a lovely restaurant with the stunning backdrop of Valle dei Templi! Fish and pasta dishes were creative. Do not miss the deconstructed cannoli!!

10/10Party of 5, 4 US American tourists and me, their Sicilian driver. Traditional food in unexpected combinations. High quality ingredients, every plate is a fulfilling experience. Great selection of wines and drinks. Proud promoters of Sicilian products. Don't expect excessive portions, a full course meal is quite doable and don't forget to try the desserts, really worth it. The prices are not cheap but quite reasonable for the high quality. The view on the valley is amazing.

9/10The food was good but the service was lacking. The appetizers, first and second all came out at the same time. We never got any bread plates and were told we could only order 3 different pastas for a party of 12

5.5/10The setting was gorgeous, but the food was really disappointing. Everything tasted completely unseasoned. There was no salt, no spices, no herbs, no acidity in any of the dishes. It was truly bizarre. The best thing I ate was the complimentary bread and olive oil. The waiters were also brusque, borderline rude (but I wouldn’t have cared about that if the food had been good).

7/10The restaurant has a magnificent vieuw on the ancient Greek Temple, which is the most important asset. the food is reasonable but did not meet our expectations viewing the restaurants past records in Michelin & Gault Millot
