I ordered the chili, potatoes, and hazelnut tirimisu all of which were vegan and delicious! The staff were also great I will definitely be back soon and look forward to uploading pictures on my next visit for review!

When we arrived at opening time the menus for today and not yet being printed and had to wait for half an hour. My daughter who is two and a half had spaghetti and we ordered pizza. The spaghetti arrive 45 minutes before the pizza. No explanation was given. No apology was given for the lateness of the meal which happened an hour and a half after we originally arrived. What made matters even worse was that the pizza base was incredibly hard we literally had to use something like a steak knife to cut through the dough. I'm guessing that didn't have time to let the dough rise properly before putting it in the oven. When leaving we were I asked when paying how we found the meal. For the first time in my life I said I found the meal really bad. The server went away and had a discussion and came back and said we would not have to pay for the spaghetti which cost 5 Euros. Overall I found the restaurant poorly managed and not that impressive. If you are vegan there must be better options in Catania. I assume this restaurant I gets good ratings because vegans generally rate other vegan restaurants High.

And that's saying something in this town. Waited 30 minutes until I went up to a waiter to ask for a food menu and they responded with wait just 10 more minutes. We promptly left and got sushi. Terrible service never going back.

We were only offered one, a bit disappointed that we didn't have the same choice as everyone else, but didn't find out until we were leaving. Staff and food awesome.

Nice food. Friendly staff. No English menu or English speaking staff. So I ordered randomly and was not disappointed. One has to ring the bell to get in. read more Nice food. Friendly staff.
