Sicilia In Bocca Da Salvo - Catania

This restaurant was recommended to us by our hotel and we were happily surprised! First of all, we wouldn't have found it on our own, even though it was within a block of our hotel. (It is a restaurant for the locals). And the restaurant accommodated our party of 9 with short notice. All of the dishes were very good and we were treated to assorted cookies and dessert wine at the end of the meal! I would eat here again, if I am ever back to Catania.

My husband and I went to this restaurant on Valentine 's Day 14 Feb 2017. And this was the worst service ever, we had reservations for 2030 and once we got seated we noticed on our table we didn 't have any bread like everyone else did. Our server didn 't offer us a menu to see what we were paying for he just asked us if we wanted hot fish or cold fish but didn 't allow us to see what else they offered to eat. Once we got the antipasti we weren 't served again until 2100 after I asked the waiter if we had ordered anything else, he told me to hold on and he went to check and came back and said it was almost done. What was almost done we don 't know what else we ordered because we didn 't see a menu to see what else we wanted. So after he left to go get our second plate it was fish and shrimp but I also didn 't know they had muscles and pasta etc. After we got our second plate at 2120and finished I asked for our bill, well needless to say they never brought it. So we walked to the cashier and once we got our bill it was €80 for only 2 plates of antipasti, fish and whole bottle of wine I didn 't even drink a glass or 2 would have been great and water. Overall this was the worst service ever and will NOT recommend to anyone.

The first impression of the restaurant is good: dishes on offer, prices and dining room. The food was OK. The swordfish ravioli tasted too strongly of fish and had unpleasant results on my intestine the next day. The dessert was average. This was the first restaurant we went to when arriving in Catania but we avoided it when we returned to this city.

Esperienza davvero Top. Abbiamo mangiato benissimo, e consiglio vivamente le sarde a beccafico, sono davvero ottime. Servizio ottimo e impeccabile, lo consiglio vivamente a tutti!!

Va bene. antipasti super e servizio molto cortese. Consigliato.
