费乌多·图迪亚

This restaurant, named after the ancient Sicilian musical mouth instrument similar to a small flute and used in folk music, is located in the heart of the historic center. It features a spacious outdoor area for the summertime and interior spaces that predominantly use materials such as wood and stone. The cuisine pays homage to traditional local dishes, expertly crafted and "revitalized," using ingredients that mostly come from the Madonie Park where the location is situated. The mushroom specialties are not to be missed, and the wine selection is also excellent.

In just a few years, young owner-chef Giuseppe Costantino has turned what was once the family trattoria into an elegant restaurant serving delicious reinterpretations of local specialities. There is just one tasting menu which features either meat or fish (although this can be discussed when you make your booking, which is essential).

Housed in the elegant Relais Villa Flora, this restaurant occupies a natural terrace with breathtaking views of the Nissene hills. The dishes are predominantly regional in style yet reinterpreted with a modern twist. There’s also a good wine selection with a focus on Sicilian and Italian labels.

There’s also a firm focus on vegetables thanks to the restaurant’s own on-site kitchen garden, which is well worth a visit. Also not to be missed is a visit to th

This restaurant’s name comes from the initial syllables of the two restaurants that once stood here, which were combined and refurbished a few years ago. Now in the style of a modern bistro, Zamù serves traditional and generously portioned cuisine, plus a reasonably priced business menu at lunchtime. There’s an equal emphasis on meat and fish on the menu, while the clearly displayed blackboard lists the daily specials available.

Situated in the town centre, this restaurant can be accessed by car despite its location perched above the town. It takes its name from an old boundary stone that is still partially visible and which once separated the Arab and Norman sections of town (the word comes from the curious Gallo-Italian dialect spoken in parts of Sicily, which has more in common with the Lombardy dialect than those of the island itself). Meat takes centre stage, including the aged meats on display, although the menu also features generous, colourful classic dishes with a creative twist. There’s also an outdoor space

Refined fine dining at the boutique hotel "Le Calette." In the summertime, Cala Luna is hosted in a splendid garden surrounded by plants and flowers, with breathtaking views of the bay, the Caldura sea stacks, and the Rocca. The dishes are a technical and creative expression of Chef Dario Pandolfo’s experiences, who applies what he has learned working in prestigious restaurants in Italy and abroad to Sicilian ingredients and traditions. The result is a vibrant and colorful cuisine, sometimes with strong flavors, always creative and deeply Mediterranean. "Green" notes are evident not only in th
