It deserves few pics It is on a first flooor with a glass wall all the lenght of the restaurant From the glass wall you can see the Cattedrale di San Giovanni Battista (main church) and Via Roma below (the street where people stroll around in the evening) The kitchen is visible, on one end of the restaurant, so you see the staff preparing your food. I was not hungry so I had just a fish caponata (see the web for caponata , it 's to long to explain) and then a sword fish with salad They were both delicious Even the basket with bread was fine, there was a choice of small fresh local breads, including berad sticks. There is a rich list of wines, but I was in the mood for a beer so I picked a local lager one, very tasty and thick. All staff was very welcoming, professional and helpful I recommend it for a nice evening out in Ragusa.

We were seated right in front of the kitchen and are we happy we did end up there. Quite an experience and we were spoilt too! Fantastic amd exsquisite fish dinner, accompanied by nobile local wine. Fish was fresh, we had it all in front of us! And given my food intollerances, the chef prepared special dishes for me that were out of this world! When we return to Ragusa (and we will! we will definitely go back!

We started with it and it was INCREDIBLE olive oil, small pieces of tomato, green onion, and garlic, and well seasoned served with a warm variety of soft rolls. Perfectly chilled never had an Italian style tuna tartare so I was definitely impressed. We had two pastas the clams with pesto which was very tasty the pesto was delicious but unfortunately the clams weren’t cleaned properly so every other bite was gritty. Second dish was a classic Sicilian sardine with spaghetti and bread crumbs which was very good but fishy (it’s sardines so it’s supposed to be). The bread crumbs added a nice crunch to it but after eating a plate full of sand from the clams I couldn’t appreciate the texture as much. Flavorful though. We also ate at 7:30 on a Saturday and the entire restaurant was empty evidently the norm in Ragusa is to start dinner at 9pm at the earliest. Wine was ok but expensive.
