La Sirena Restaurant

Filicudi


Facing the waterfront in tiny seaside Pecorini Mare, La Sirena's colourful open-air terrace is an atmospheric place to dine. Pull up a straw-seated chair, admire the front-row view of multi-hued boats, rocky beach and sparkling Mediterranean and feast on fresh local seafood preceded by appetisers such as tuna and neonata fritters or carbonara di pesce (spaghetti with fish-based carbonara sauce).
