"A great place, value for money and nice people. For getting there from Porta Catania, don't walk the busy road but enter the large parking building and take the stairs or the elevator to the lowest floor. Then a narrow footpath takes you directly to the Antonio."

"Prices are very fair, staff is friendly and the food is absolutely fantastic. I get a different dish everytime I visit and each meal is better than the last. The seafood spaghetti and the steak are my favorites."

"Way more than just a Pizzeria. Alessando from Le Tre Arcate in Piano di Sorrento recommended this delightful restaurant. A short distance from the Taormina crowds but worth the trip. We had a great dinner here with a friend. We let Chef Giovana pick the menu and she did a great job. Service was great, food was great, and we loved being away from the crowds."

"On our way back to Siracusa we wanted to have dinner before the drive. Stopped by a little before they opened. They said we could have a drink before until they opened. The chef had the oven heated (wood burning pizza stove) so we had a lovely salad and two pizza's. Very pleasant evening. Really good pizza, my wife ate the whole thing, the first time she finished pizza since high school (last century). Very convienent out of the way dining experience. Highly recommend it if you want something a little away from town."
