Authentic pizza family restaurant with a fantastic ambience. Certainly worth a visit.

Delicious pizza at a good price. I definitely recommend trying the one with pistachios, I've seen many places in Italy and Sicily, but I've never eaten one like this. The service is very nice, and the place is cozy with a local atmosphere. It's worth leaving the hotel to try local food.

The pizzas, calzones and crema catalanas are crazy TASTY!!! This place is the best restaurant in Aci Trezza and the owner is the cutest italian gentleman ever! Also very good prices for drinks and food.
