Once one of ancient Greece’s most important cities, today Syracuse (Siracusa in Italian) is a lively town of about 125,000 on Sicily’s southeast coast. The city overflows with amazing remnants from its long history. Romans, Vandals and Normans are but a few of those who ruled here after the Greeks. In Syracuse’s harbor, Ortygia Island (also called Città Vecchia or Old City) is the site of many of the main attractions, including the seventh-century cathedral and the Fountain of Arethusa.

A small restaurant in Siracusa. Outstanding staff and really lovely food. We were made very welcome. Food included snack with pre dinner drinks, amuse bouche and pallet cleansing sorbet. The best meal we had during our 10 days in Sicily. Highly recommended.Thank you so much for your fantastic review.

It was a clean, bright restaurant with their varieties of caponata on display in the back; long bowls of oily black olives, vibrant grilled red peppers, and mixed caponata...blue black eggplant, roasted garlic, red bell pepper...we were seated at a small wooden table quickly. I ordered a glass of white wine and sara had sparkling water. (still or sparkling are your choices). The seafood looked simply prepared and dominated the menu. Sara ordered grilled swordfish steak, and i ordered mixed fried, a melange of squid, shrimps, and lovely whole anchovies. anyone who has eaten seafood at a coastal restaurant knows that you can spoil seafood quickly from overcoating, overfrying, letting it sit too long, etc. The little wooden box of frutti di mare were perfect. Piping hot, dashed in a little flour and salt, fried to crisp succulence. I snapped down a sardine, tail and all, quite hot. Then my salate de arance (orange) was brought, a lovely fresh salad of quartered skinned orange, adorned with slices of tender fennel, bits of dried tomato, and a very light vinaigrette. A lovely citrusy foil to the crispy fried seafood. Sara had the caponata, warmed and delicious, with bread. The swordfish was grilled fast and the steak was fresh and moist, not overcooked. It was definitely a seafood bar...the food was brought lickety split, and the service was spot on and very warm. I hope to go there again.

Time out is not a destination restaurant but what it is, is a good local restaurant serving perfectly cooked traditional Sicilian home cooking at really good prices.It is only a ten minute walk from the Ortigia bridge and is not a tourist trap. It is pleasant and cool on a small dead end street. The staff are friendly and you can eat here at any time. My wife had the classic Sicilian mussel soup and as meat is not big in most restaurants in Siracusa I had the most wonderful meatballs.If it`s too hot for a big meal just pop in here and have something light, fresh and perfectly cooked.

sicilian restaurant based on typical dishes of Messina specially meat and fish skewers and many olther different sicilian dishes
Reviewed By trulyperfect
I had read lots of complimentary reviews on this site and decided to give it a try. But I was really let down by this place. It is not enough to say that the quality of food didn't live up to my expectations. I was shocked how primitive and not tasty at all it was. The portions were tiny and pretty much reminded fast food as no matter that we took different braciolette; one of pork and one of sword fish, they both had a taste of bred. The salad was made of lettuce and a few slices of unripe tomatoes. Thatâs it. No comments.A glass of white wine was more like a hardly covered bottom of a glass. I do not drink much, and when I order a glass of wine in a restaurant thatâs usually enough, thatâs exactly my dose, but not in this restaurant. That portion was obviously too small even for such a little drinker as I am.well sorry you had a bad experience with us not all the tastes are the same about the wine we make same portion for everybody that is the same of all other places by the way happy not everybody thinks like you:) enjoy your vacation in sicily

MOON's kitchen is made for curious and careful palates. Ours is a social kitchen where guests can, at any time, ask how the dish they enjoyed was made so that it can be recreated at home. Our menu offers new surprises every day; we respect nature and that

We are not vegan; however, the atmosphere was so good with piano player we decided to give it a try. Service was excellent and food was to. My wife had a tempura vegetable appetizer it was excellent. I had a nice salad with almonds and lasagna both were good. Service was best we had in Sicily and we were there for three weeks.

Three of us called in several times during our stay in Ortigia. We had breakfast and lunch at various times - the food and drink was excellent (see pics) and backed up by really friendly service from the 3 ladies!Definitely well worth going a little off the beaten track to find them - highly recommended!!

Three of us called in on a rainy evening. They recommended an excellent bottle of red which was also reasonably priced. We had the meat and cheese platter which was enormous and really tasty. We also found room for 3 excellent deserts which they matched perfectly with 3 different desert wines.All in all a lovely evening - we highly recommended Evoe!

Wonderful alfresco dining in a clean atmospheric alley with view of the sea. Lovely delicious food of seafood pasta. Staff were soooo nice and attentive. We went back twice for meals. If you are dining during the popular hours and want to dine outside you might want to make reservations.

We were here as couple if days ago. The restaurant was full with people, w mix between locals and tourists. Even though it was full, the food and service was very good. The casatella Siciliana was very good too!! We had a really good time here. Before we left, the head waiter offered us a generous shot of Limoncello.Recommended
