Description

Having left its previous premises in Caltagirone, this old acquaintance of the Michelin guide has now opened in Catania, right in the city centre between period palazzi and avenues planted with oleander. In a simple yet elegant setting enhanced by works of art by Nunzio Fisichella (a painter devoted to depicting Etna and its many moods), the delicate cuisine continues to focus on Italy with occasional Sicilian influences in its ingredients, sauces, style of cooking and flavouring – nothing here is forced. Special mention should be made of the grilled quail, which is perfectly cooked in Sicilia

Review summary

Located in central Catania, Coria offers contemporary Sicilian cuisine. Reviews highlight refined, creative dishes, an elegant minimalist ambiance, and professional service, with tasting menus often praised as worthy of its Michelin star. However, negative feedback points to service inconsistencies, including failure to check for allergies, pricing errors, and pouring mistakes. Some guests also objected to mandatory uniform menu orders and felt certain courses did not meet Michelin standards. While food quality and atmosphere receive high marks, service reliability and value remain contentious issues among diners.

Best for

Suitable for diners seeking refined creative cuisine and an elegant atmosphere, though be mindful of service details and menu restrictions.
