Where to Eat in Pachino: The Best Restaurants and Bars

February 21, 2018 Diedre Savory

Pachino (Italian pronunciation: [paˈkino]; Sicilian: Pachinu) is a town and comune in the Province of Syracuse, Sicily (Italy). The name derives from the Latin word bacchus, which is the Roman god of wine, and the word vinum, which means wine in Latin; originally the town was named Bachino which eventually was changed to Pachino when, in Sicily, Italian became the official spoken and written language.

Al Boccone Ristorante

Sicilian cuisine, mostly from Siracusa

Reviewed By Christoph G - Geneva, Switzerland

Don't let the entrance fool you. it is on a quiet busy street, but the tables are on the backside and really on the sea shore.
Antipasti were excellent, the pasta also and the fish served as main course was fresh and tasty.
the personnel was friendly, the price justified.
We had no complaints at all and were really happpy.mwarmly recommended when staying in Marzamemi.

Hotel - Ristorante Scala

This is a typical fresh fish Restaurant , which has gone fishing just in Portopalo (km 0). The restaurant uses vegetables that we personally cultivate and use methods of biological nature. Taking care of our guests in particular way is our due, offering the best of our area.

Quite good a restaurant, very good food mainly based on fish. But crowded and it is better to have a reservation. Ristorante molto buono, cibo ottimo principalmente a base di pesce. Ma affollato ed è meglio prenotare

L' Approdo

Reviewed By rondi3 - Ottawa, Canada

We were driving in the Pachino district, in the quiet season, and finally found L'Approdo. Our kunch cost only 28Euro! It was an appetizer medley of: gamberi rosso; marinated anchovies; stuffed mussels; stuffed sardines; roasted red pepper; sardine roll; fried anchovies with caramelized onions; octopus salad; squid in tomato sauce; marinated baby shrimp; and a tomato salad. Followed by ice cream cones on the house. WOW. The restaurant is very close to the nice beach here, and has both indoor and outdoor Seating. Service was very nice.

Cortile Arabo

Reviewed By TrevorTe - Switzerland

Some amazing restaurants.organised around the extremely picturesque Piazza Regina Margherita. Beautiful during the day, bustling with locals and tourists, and as night falls, the piazza is taken over by live bands and DJs who provide entertainment for anyone in a dancing mood.... Excellent seafront fish restaurants are dotted all around the piazza. Marzamemi is well worth visiting.

Went with friends. Lunch was "ok" - but nothing more. Loud music from the TV. Even after asking 3 times to turn down the volume they didn't care. Lousy....

Caffe al Ciclope

Reviewed By sicilyToronto - Stratford, Canada

I love the pastries you get in Sicily, especially the ricotta and cream filled ones. Caffe al Ciclope has delicious treats. They also have a caffe in Pachino on the piazza (although I would not recommend Pachino as a tourist destination...it has to be the ugliest city in Sicily), which is bigger and wonderful, as well. Late at night it buzzes with people eating gelato and having fun. We enjoyed it and will go back.

La Mattanza

Reviewed By italiangypsy - Portopalo di Capo Passero, Italy

this restaurant uses all local products of the area, and the taste of the enormous pizzas is fantastic. I chose "The Etna" and it was flavoursome, well cooked and absolutely delicious.
Seating is both indoors or out and is patronized by the locals of Marzamemi.
We had a freshly made green salad with the famous "cigliecino" tomatoe of the area, two pizzas (enough for 4 persons) and 2 half litre of red "vino di casa" which came to 30e.
The service was quick and we were treated to their delicious "granita" one of almonds and the other pistachio. Well worth visiting after a swim.

Best food we had during our 2.5 week holiday. Usually busy, there are only 5 or 6 tables. Restaurant is self-service...you go in to order, look at blackboard & cabinets. Take cutlery, drinks etc back to table, and clear up afterwards.
Food is sublime. On our first visit we over ordered. Really yummy fried calamari for me and a sausage type pastie for him. Then 2 huge fresh tuna steaks with salad & bread.
We just could not eat it all (lucky cats). With 2 beers price came to 32euros.
We visited several more times, both for dinner and to pick up items (more pasties and arancini) to take back for lunch.
Restaurant is in a beautiful old passageway between the old harbour and the square. We were lucky to be there when weddings were taking place and could watch the guests in all their finery walking through to dine.
We could not always get a table, I can't be bothered to queue, so had a reserve restaurant in mind.

Most of their guests are local people. Don't expect a luxury restaurant, but just nice, freshly prepared, good quality food at a very reasonable price. You can have simply pizza or nicely prepared seafood. We have been 3 times in our 2 weeks.
