Sicilian restaurants in Agrigento

  1. Il Déhors

    The restaurant of the Foresteria Baglio della Luna takes its lead from the monsù cooking of the 1800s when French influences began to reach the Sicilian dinner table. The menu includes sole, lobster and meats such as pheasant, lamb and kid. There are delicious pâtés and plenty of buttery sauces. Excellent.

  2. Leon d’Oro

    An excellent restaurant that warrants its high prices and perfectly mixes the fish and fowl that typify Agrigento cuisine. Try the coniglio in agrodolce (rabbit in a sweet sauce) or the triglia e macco di fave (mullet with broad beans).

    Kokalos

    If you have a car, head for this trattoria/pizzeria, on the road to San Leone, where they dish up the area's best pizza. They also serve the local cavatelli (a type of homemade pasta). The views of the Temple of Concord are impressive too.

    La Forchetta

    A budget eatery, the Fork serves the cheapest grub in town, with simple pastas and meat fillets to follow. The cramped dining room is often packed with locals who come for the ever-changing daily specials and the relaxed atmosphere.

    L’Ambasciata di Sicilia

    At the ‘Sicilian Embassy’, they do everything they can to improve foreign relations, plying tourists with tasty plates of traditional Sicilian fare. Try to get a table on the small outdoor terrace, which has splendid views.

    Da Giovanni

    A reliable option with piazza seating, smooth service, classic Sicilian dishes and mind-blowing cassata(sponge cake with ricotta and fruit). It gets quite busy on Saturday evenings, when bookings are a must.

    Kalòs

    This is a top-end restaurant serving quality cuisine close to the centre of town. The whopping service charge of 20% is a bit steep, especially when the place can feel a little funereal early in the evening.

    La Promenade dei Templi

    This is a good café/restaurant popular with locals for a morning coffee, and the best eatery near the temples away from the madding crowds. There is also a pleasant rooftop terrace.
