Cefalù Restaurants

  1. Il Covo del Pirata

    A cheap spot for a quick lunch. Il Covo serves sandwiches, a limited number of pasta dishes and filling salads. Ask for a seat on the tiny terrace overlooking the port. At night it turns into a club.

  2. L'Antica Corte

    Housed in a lovely old cortile (courtyard), this is one of the better restaurants in town but it can get very busy. Go for a plate of traditional Sicilian pasta or a simple pizza.

  3. La Botte

    Although it doesn't have a sexy beachfront location, this eatery just off Corso Ruggero continues to send out good food. It has excellent antipasti and pasta dishes, and its house special, casarecce alla botte (short pasta with a meat sauce), is good if you fancy a change from fish.

  4. La Galleria

    A new restaurant, café, gallery and bookshop, La Galleria is a lovely space with a big, elegant garden and excellent cuisine. Try its antipasto of marinated fish, and for starters go for the risotto with asparagus or the fresh tagliatelle with prawns, cherry tomatoes and crushed pistachio. The mains, which usually consist of grilled fresh fish, are palate-bendingly good. We recommend a glass of sweet Marsala for an ending with style.

  5. La Vecchia Marina

    Overlooking the cute little fishermen's beach, this is the best fish restaurant in town. It serves an array of freshly caught beauties, which you can enjoy with a delightful view.

  6. Ostaria del Duomo

    Right on Piazza del Duomo, with outdoor tables facing the cathedral, Ostaria del Duomo seems as if it would be the most overpriced restaurant of them all. But this tavern serves up beautifully prepared food at very reasonable prices, and there's live piano music for that extraromantic touch. Simple, tasty, fresh ingredients and an excellent wine list.
