We got the pasta fresca alla norma and the mixed grilled fish. Both were great and the service was quite fast. The eggplant on the alla norma was delicious and i wish there was more of it on the dish.

We spent an entire evening there, drinking, laughing and eating food that was so good, that it became our scale to compare other meals in Sicily to it :). The fish, the meats, the salads, the pasta, everything! The staff didn’t speak much English but our Italian was enough to communicate. But when it was too difficult to explain what a meal is, the waiter just told us to wait, went to the kitchen and came back a few minutes later with a plate of meats and other ingredients and showed us which is which, while being so nice and funny, that we wanted to try everything . We did have to wait quite a bit for everything and they did forget a few things (brought them later when we asked) but they had a few big groups and were taking care of everyone so it was understandable. They also did it in such a nice and friendly way that we didn’t mind. Every group spent their entire evening there so it’s not just your typical touristy order-eat-leave in an hour. You go there to spend the evening and trust me, you won’t be disappointed. You will have a great time and eat one of the best meals in your life

If you are visiting Catania, you CAN’T miss this place.
I can’t forget how fresh the fish was and how tasty every dish was. Everything feels as if it’s cooked by your mum, in the most traditional and generous Sicilian way of cooking, where food is a true expression of love and caring.
I’m looking forward to going back to my hometown and treating myself to Catania Ruffiana!

A fantastic last minute spot for lunch. Absolutely delicious food and charming service not too far from the Museo Storico dello Sbarco in Sicilia 1943.
The seafood was a particular highlight for all of us, above all the mussels and grilled octopus salad.

We had lunch here and everything was excellent. The antipasti were absolutely delicious, full of fresh and authentic flavors, and the seafood pasta was perfectly cooked and very tasty. Great quality ingredients, generous portions, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. A wonderful place to enjoy real Sicilian cuisine, highly recommended.

The hidden gem of Catania. As you walk down the street, you see a sign almost forgotten… but if you dare to walk in this amazing place, you find yourself in love. Amazing food, from the starters, to the pasta, to the deserts. (Try the amazing homemade tiramisu) And the best part ? The amazing family who owns the place! We loved it so much that we went back for more! If you go to Catania, be sure to give the outside of place the benefit of the doubt, I’m sure you won’t regret it! Much love to this amazing loving family.

Very kind and helpful service; despite the staff not speaking EN very well, we had no problems getting along.
The fresh fish of the day as well as the mixed starters were absolutely delicious!
What could be better: we ordered for each of us a separate dish, for one of us the fish of the day, which was more than a kilo of fish and thus a portion rather for sharing than individual; in the end it was difficult to finish it and we paid 60eur (price of a kilo) for that one dish only. The waiter could have advised us to share it or recommend a smaller portion.

I would recommend this spot 100 times out of 100. Great food at fair prices. Great local atmosphere. And if that wasn’t enough, the family who runs it is all extremely nice and welcoming. They treat you like family. You can tell they are truly goodhearted people who want you to enjoy your time not just being nice as if they were working a tip. Whole family was there working as well when I went. Good humble people with great vibes and food.

Absolutely loved this restaurant! I came here tonight with my two sisters and father on our vacation to Sicily. The servers and staff were incredibly kind, welcoming and gracious and were very helpful with the wine selection. The food was fantastic. I got a fusilli pesto dish with pistachio and lemon sorbet for dessert. Everything was excellent. It was a nice, quiet environment with a family-owned feel. I hope to come back one day.
