"Even though, they don’t serve any pasta, no chicken, the place is truly amazing! Fresh and delicious boards and wonderful selection of wine. The service is above any expectations! The young boyfriend and girlfriend will welcome you with a real Sicilian hospitality! With perfect English they will help you with your order. We hope to be back next year, and hopefully, after 11 years being together, they will welcome us back as a new wed couple! Bravo!"

"Fantastic Wine Bar, had the mixed plate of meats, cheese, vegetables and fruit and also had the bruschetta. 2 glasses of local Noto red wine recommended by the owner to accompany this amazing food.
Great service from the 2 young owners topped off an amazing experience. Highly recommended."
