Wonderful restaurant with great food and attentive and kind staff
Ottima pizza, ben condita e ben cotta; ambiente e servizio ottimi. Ciò che colpisce principalmente è la cortesia e la disponibilità dei gestori e la genuinità dei prodotti. Un posto semplice dove tornare non può che essere un gran piacere!

Upon the recommendation of our concierge we tried the Siciliane here, and they totally rocked (WAY better than the one we tried at the Moulin Rouge, further up the street). They have a pretty wide selection (including some vegetarian options) and a great location right on the main piazza in town. Service was good, though not terribly attentive as it grew busy, but with good English.Unfortunately they were out of a few things we wanted to order (NO salads, and no cassata for dessert) but otherwise we were very pleased with the food, local wine, and the prices! We would definitely return the next time we're in Zafferana Etnea!

Typical sicilian cuisine between tradition and innovation, specialties porcini mushrooms. Wine cellar with fine local wines
We reserved a table for dinner on a Saturday evening and specifically asked if they had fresh Porcini mushrooms; the answer was positive. We arrived at 20:00, asked the waiter for the fresh Porcini and we were told that we were âluckyâ as they just got a delivery but that we had to wait 10 minutes as they had to clean it and get it ready for the evening mise en place. We decided whilst waiting for the Porcini to order a pizza Siciliana, and a Rosso di Verzella red wine, which was very good; cannot say the same about the Siciliana as it turned out to be too oily. Finally ordered some starters, fresh Porcini salad (fantastic), Porcini Pastellati and Polpettine di Porcini that were of a good quality and taste. As soon as we finished the starters we decided to order the main courses and since the fresh Porcini salad was excellent we wanted two more as side dishes, the waiter informed us that unfortunately they had already finished the fresh Porcini and suggested us some pasta dishes with pre-cooked Porcini; ordered tagliatelle, lasagna and a portion of (medium-rare) chargrilled lamb. The lasagna wasnât bad, the tagliatelle were just boiled and had some mushrooms on it (tasteless) and the meat was overcooked. The desserts were scarce; in fact we just had some pineapple. The service is very slow and inattentive; the place is mediocre and lacks of appeal. As we were about to leave, the staff that was standing near us didnât even bothered to say âthank you and good byeâ.

On our final night around Mt Etna, we wanted to taste some fresh porcini. On the menu of the restaurants we saw there was the dreadful asterisk 'sorgelati' .. Then chef Gaetano of 'Orchidea' improvised an all-porcini dinner we won't easily forget: bruschetta, insalata, porcine fritti etc. We'll return!

This restaurant offers outdoor as well as indoor seating with a fantastic view. The food is very good. The kitchen timing though was bad. The primi piatti were served one by one, with a time lapse of 10 minutes between the first and the last. The secondi piatti arrived too soon - the primi were not finished yet.

The restaurant is in Zafferana main square. Nothing fancy, the place is small, but cosy. The personnel is very kind. The menu offers a limited selection of apetizer, pasta and main courses. And this is what I like of this places: few options, but very limited possibility to get it wrong. Both the two kind of pasta we ordered were really good. My mother wouldn't prepare it better! :) And trust me this is quite an achievement! I had a mix of grilled meat as a main course and everything was good. Dessert (homemade walnut icecream with caramel and hot choccolate) was divine! Very good value for money. I highly recommend it.

Craft made beer is very good as well as Sicilian and traditional pizza. Waiter is very very kind. Everything was ok but expensive. It worthwhile a visit for dinner so you can enjoy the evening and the sunset view.
