This is a really excellent restaurant. Service great (they also speak English). Good choice of wine. And the food ? .....heavenly. The tasting menu is rich, varied and delicious. The price is a pleasant surprise too. I can fully recommend you will not be disappointed. Prof. Philip Drury

Found it on Tripadvisor, and we decided to try our luck. At 8pm when they opened we where the first customers, and the waiter was checking the reservation list, we thought it was a joke (the place looks like pretty down scale in the entrance. You can see the kitchen, the fish fridge nothing much). Been invited to the table... More

Today four of us had lunch at Il Locandiere in Caltagirone, and it was one of our best meals yet in Sicily. The antipasti were superb, and I particularly recommend the antipasti for two - a wonderful sampling of several different dishes. We had various pasta dishes and each was superb, as was the house white wine. The service was... More

The food was awesome and the service impeccable! Loved every moment of it! The fish is great as and the antipasti are the speciality of the house. The home made wine they have is also very good.

We read the reviews about Il Locandiere on TripAdvisor and eagerly looked forward to eating there. We were not disappointed. We had reservations and were immediately seated at a table of our choice that was impeccably set and attended to by a nice young man named Fabrizio. We ordered an excellent local Caltagirone white wine and later a bottle of... More

This was a small restaurant with the most wonderful and memorable seafood and service. The seafood sausage looked so amazing that four of us had to have some, then there was a bruschetta so carefully made with fresh herbs and finely cut peppers, olive oil-brushed bread and that was just the beginning. The pasta dishes were excellent, each created with... More

The 2 young brothers who run this restaurant, Mario & Fabrizio, have such an incredible passion and respect of food and Sicilian wine that we knew we were in for a great experience. It was the only restaurant recommended by the owner of our B&B who said it would be an unforgettable experience. And it was. We've been fortunate enough... More
