We celebrated a birthday at Osteria Antica Marina and it was wonderful. The pasta was excellent, the atmosphere was festive yet simple, and the food was delicious. The waiters were kind and attentive, making our celebration feel special.
This is a gem – authentic, warm, and truly worth a visit. Highly recommended.

Amazing restaurant and great wine selection. This is the best fish restaurant I visited in Catania. Next to the local fish market this restaurant features the catch of the day!!! A must try when you visit Catania. Salvo the owner is especially friendly and an amazing Gastronomist. Just heaven! A reservation is suggested!

Worth to visit
I’ve been looking for seafood restaurant in Catania, then I booked for dinner for two. Everything was perfect, especially caramari e gamba fritters and squid ink pasta were impeccable. In addition, I wanted to do something for my friend’s birthday here. The hall staff Luigi listened to me very carefully and he helped a lot!!!!! We have had a good time. I strongly recommend this restaurant!

Dining at Osteria Antica Marina felt like stepping straight into the heartbeat of Catania. Tucked inside the city’s lively fish market, the place buzzes with energy — fishermen shouting, people laughing, the scent of the sea floating through the air. It’s chaotic in the best possible way, and that chaos gives the restaurant its charm.
I started with a plate of mixed crudo — raw shrimp, tuna, and squid so fresh it almost melted in my mouth. Then came the pasta with sea urchin, one of the best I’ve ever had: creamy, briny, and perfectly balanced. Every bite tasted like the Sicilian coast itself. My grilled fish was chosen directly from the counter, and the waiter suggested a crisp Etna Bianco that paired beautifully.
The service was warm and unpretentious, exactly what I love in a local trattoria. They didn’t rush me, even though the restaurant was full, and their genuine enthusiasm for the food was contagious.
It’s not a quiet place — the market noise seeps in constantly — but that’s part of the magic. Osteria Antica Marina isn’t just a restaurant; it’s an experience. If you want to taste the real soul of Catania, this is where you should go.

Yesterday in Catania, we ate fish.
This is not, perhaps, a revelation. One eats fish in Sicily. One expects fish in Sicily. But there is fish — the word, the category, the menu item — and then there is fish: the thing itself, hours from the sea, still carrying the memory of water.
Fresh fish. Fresh shrimp. Fresh mollusks. Fresh pasta.
I list these not to be tedious but to emphasize the essential economy of the meal. Nothing smoked, nothing preserved, nothing that had traveled far or waited long. Everything recent. Everything immediate.
This freshness is not merely a quality but a kind of ethics. To serve something fresh is to honor it, to refuse to disguise it, to let it be what it is rather than what you wish it to be.
Yummy and delightful, yes — words that sound almost childish in English but that capture something true. The shrimp tasted like shrimp. The mollusks tasted like the sea. The pasta, made that day (one assumes, one hopes, one believes), provided the necessary textural counterpoint: something to soak up the juices, to extend the pleasure, to make the ephemeral last just a moment longer.
All accentuated by an Etna white.
We left satisfied in that particular way one leaves Italian meals — not stuffed, not overfed, but content. As if the world, for an hour or two, had been exactly as it should be.
Which, in Catania yesterday, it was.

Top venue in Catania. Rather sophisticated place, high-quality crudo and fish based dishes. Good selection of wines.

The service was excellent, but the food was a slight disappointment. Oysters were delicious, but mussels and pasta were nothing special at all. Nothing to remember.

We went for lunch and ordered grilled octopus, grilled sawfish, and a squid and shrimp dish. The food was tasteless, unseasoned, and served cold. I don’t recommend it
