    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.

    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.

  3. Lo Scoglio Ubriaco

    Dine in a five-star setting without shifting your credit card into overdrive at this elegant restaurant with its seaview terrace. Pizzas are served at night, while the whole gamut of pasta, meat and fish choices is available at midday.

    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.

  5. Al Porticciolo

    If the indoor dining room looks empty, it’s because everyone’s piled out on the ample waterfront terrace, one of the prettiest in town. The pizzas are excellent, and fixed-price menus start at €18.

    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.

    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.

    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.
