Karon Gintonerie - SAN VITO LO CAPO

The service was exceptional and very nice. The waiter supported in recommendations and tried to help us translate the menu in English. The traditional “caponata” dish is a must in this restaurant try and very good! Fresh food and great service.

First impression of the restaurant was great. The waiter was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. Unfortunately, our positive experience changed very fast. Our antipasti had a piece of plastic wrapping in it which I found in the portion of the dish that had calamari and eggplant. Not too big of a deal though, these things happen and we moved on. My girlfriend informed the waiter that she was pregnant and couldn't eat shellfish or large fish such as tuna or swordfish and was recommended the couscous dish. I ordered mussels. Once the food arrived, we noticed that her dish was full of swordfish, clams and mussels... exactly what she couldn't eat. At this point we didn't want to make a fuss so she just gave me those pieces which she couldn't eat. A couple of bites in, she finds a piece of aluminum foil in the dish. Now she's getting angry. A few bites later, she pulls out yet ANOTHER piece of plastic wrapping. This was the straw that broke the camels back and we had to say something at this point. Our original waiter noticed the error and was visibly upset and immediately apologized but for some reason, another waiter felt he needed to say his part and tried to explain to my girlfriend that it wasn't plastic but rather a shell... from the calamari. Well, I might not live by the sea but I know for certain that squid doesn't shells that look like pieces of plastic wrapping. This other waiter basically started arguing with my girlfriend which was rubbing salt in the wound at that point. Fortunately, the first waiter (who turned out to be the owner/manager), comped our entire meal and apologized. This part was greatly appreciated. PS. The gin tonic was phenomenal!

Esperienza assolutamente positiva. Ottime proposte di cucina giusto mix classico e moderno. Tutto estremamente soddisfacente… anche il conto ! Bravi ragazzi!

Cibo ottimo e pesce fresco! Personale gentile e cortese. Sconto the fork correttamente applicato. Abbiamo apprezzato.

Niente di banale. Ti incuriosisce e sorprende al palato. Servizio impeccabile. Giovane ma preparato. Questo misto nord-sud funziona.
