"Esperienza gastronomica superlativa a conclusione di un tour delle Isole Eolie. Il locale ha uno stile ricercato e curato, che segue un progetto ben strutturato. Anche il bagno non è banale! Particolare anche lo spazio in giardino per le serate estive. I piatti sono il frutto di una ricerca continua di sapori e abbinamenti. Tra le chicche, particolarmente riuscita l’ostrica con la salicornia. Abbiamo gustato un antipasto di mare che ha meravigliosamente deliziato le nostre papille gustative. I primi erano un trionfo di sapori ben amalgamati e bilanciati. Il dolce per chiudere è stata la perfetta conclusione di una serata perfetta. La cantina merita un apprezzamento particolare: anche qui si avverte una ricerca continua di eccellenze sia per i vini che per i liquori. I cocktail molto molto buoni. Per concludere, lo consiglio sia per una cena tra amici e familiari, come è stato nel mio caso, sia per eventi, dati gli spazi e l’esperienza dei proprietari."

"Mi piacciono molto le pizze che hanno un impasto morbido, gustoso e dal bordo alto. Fanno anche ottimi hamburger, piatti di carne e focaccia o rustici. Una bella sala interna e d'estate si può cenare all'aperto. Servizio veloce."

"I happened to be on google when I found this gem, they had amazing reviews but weren't open for another hour. Because of the great reviews we waited. WORTH THE WAIT! The restaurant is family ran and family owned. We were the only American's in there, multiple Italians in there, that's how you know the food is to die for. Well the food was delish!!! There is something for everyone on the menu and you are getting true Sicilian cuisine. Their menu does change with the seasons. Positives: great food, awesome wine that is something else they do on the side, little market inside where you can buy wine, oils, salted capers and this mouth watering pistachio spread. Lilo the waiter was so sweet and speaks great English. Negatives: NONE!"

"This restaurant which is very large is located on the beach in Terragrotto. Although the restaurant has an extensive menu of pizzas the rest of the menu offers a wide selection of local dishes. We were staying nearby and were recommend to go there by our hosts as the best restaurant close by. We started by making a fundamental mistake by ordering some bruschetta for each of us with our wine. The portion size was enormous, 5 pieces each of loaded bruschetta which was delicious but far too much. As we had already ordered a starter to share and a main course we were already struggling. We shared a seafood risotto which was full of prawns, mussels and clams in a beautifully cooked risotto. It was excellent. For our main courses my wife had the mushroom pizza which was perfectly cooked thin crust pizza full of mushrooms but again enormous. I chose the fried calamari with a side order of chips (not surprisingly the portion of chips was enormous). Again everything was perfectly cooked. One member of the staff spoke some English which was extremely useful.although we had to wait 10 minutes or so before anyone showed any interest in us after our order was taken the service throughout was very good, helpful and attentive and there were no long pauses between courses. The value for money was excellent and we had a lovely meal by the beach watching the sun go down."

"Well organized the welcome: young, kind and attentive staff. I quickly had a table for 2 and I was explained how to order with the tablet and the costs with the well-known formula 'all you can eat ', that is fixed price, last night, a Thursday, of 11€ drinks and dessert excluded. Clear operation and well-ordered menus on the tablet, you immediately understand what has a supplement and what is not included in the formula. After having had reassurances on waiting times, I immediately ordered chips, chicken peppers, pans and sent the order. I immediately afterwards ordered a pinsa, a pizza a coke and a beer. After a short wait the fries arrived, excellent, and the drinks (the coca zero from 20cl instead of the 33 from the menu. Then an infinite wait began perhaps due to the presence of a huge table for a celebration (for this reason only one star less. With a similar wait the 'all u can eat' loses a little its valence! However, even to deceive the time I ordered some feathers to pistachio cream and spek, having seemed to me that it was the oven (wood and in sight to be super-impegnate. But nothing. Waiting. I think at least 45 minutes from the reach of fries. Finally: the capricious pineapple I liked very much and also the pizza spring, nothing to say. Between the two doughs I preferred that pinsa. When I was about to finish this course came also the first dish I liked very much, although the quality of the pasta maybe was not excellent, a little gummy on the outside, perhaps also because lined (with this dressing, dense, went smooth . On account no surprise, but already with the tablet the prices were clear! The two menus, 2€ the drink, 3€ the Ceres small. I'll go back to see if the over-exaggerated wait was a case... Update. I came back several times and no wait. Everything always delicious. So now the 5 stars are all there"
