We tried this restaurant because of the TripAdvisor reviews and weren't disappointed. The free Prosecco they serve on arrival makes a bit of an occasion of the visit. The service was friendly and efficient and the food excellent. You are also given free bruschetta and a local liqueur at the end of the meal. The local wine, available in .5... More

I loved everything about Trattoria Don Ciccio’s, never mind the name conjures up the movie! Our server was a delight, funny, efficient and friendly. The food was outstanding. The Pasta Aglio Olio, few ingredients but so easy to mess up, was perfecto! The best I have ever eaten, including my own. The Insalata de Mare was ridiculously fresh and delicious.... More

We found this place accidentally - while walking among the streets. Everything was so lovely! I have read some good reviews on Trip Advisor and decided to pick this place for a dinner. Everything was good until I was served fish with scales!!! Overall impression was ruined. I was offered to choose another meal or to wait for the same.... More

This was recommended by a taxi driver. Eating in Taormina is expensive but this place offers some of the best value. Popular with locals and tourists it has a nice atmosphere and great service. Food is fresh and very tasty with the ravioli a highlight. A must visit for good Sicilian food. Enjoy!

As per usual with an Italian holiday, I spent 4 glorious days of non-stop eating. For my final meal in Taormina, I picked an absolute winner at Trattoria Don Ciccio. The food was superb, I'm just disappointed I couldn't fit more in.
