This is the best meal I ever had in Sicily. The Sicily style pesto here is so good that becomes my favourite pasta sauce right now. We ordered two pasta and a fish dish. The pasta was cooked on point, all is al dante texture. And the fish is a cold dish, is fresh and refreshing. We book our reservations at the fork, the app says the meal come with 50% discount and we finally spent around €40 for 3 dish. I think it would be quite expensive without the app’s discount. Though the food is really great and the chef is friendly.

Good restaurant serving various fish dishes. The staff is friendly and explains things well. Unfortunately I cannot put 5 stars because the prices displayed didn’t match what we paid (Salmonella pasta 8€ displayed but charged 12€, coperto 1€ displayed but charged 2€)
