On a rainy afternoon (tracking all things Montelbano), we happened upon this nice family-run restaurant overlooking the water. Our meal was terrific! Our soup of mussels was delightful, as were the caprese and pasta. The highlight: cannoli with almonds on one side, pistachios on the other drizzled with chocolate. Fa bene!

Il Ritrovo

Reviewed By WilHOegstgeest

We had dinner here one night in early August. It was still really warm and we were looking for a restaurant with tables outdoor. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality and variety of the food at the Trattoria Ritrovo. Among the four of us, we had a selection of the dishes that were on offer, from fish to meat, pasta and pizza. Everything was delicious and the dinner was great value for money.

Ok so first of all I would like to start by saying how much I loved the location and the environment created by the young, kind and customer-oriented staff. I really enjoyed our stay and we suggest everyone who want to come to Porto Empedocle to first have a walk during the sunset and then come to Sciàlo! Their pizza is a MUST and the prices are unbelievably low!A friend and I ordered 2 of their special pizzas, “Chi nicchi e nacchi” (creamed zucchini, provola cheese, burrata cheese, speck, 9,00€) and “Sciavurusa” (mozzarella cheese, pistachio nut pesto, mortadella, pistachio nut grains, 8,50€).  Since we have travelled and eaten in a lot of places together, we believe we can say that these two pizzas were the best pizzas we had in Sicily so far!! We could also look at the pizza chef while he was preparing our pizzas, from our table!! I can only use a word to describe Greta and Francesco: AMAZING!! We just left their pizzeria with a smile on our faces (and with our belly full of good food and wine, of course!)

We chose Sicily mainly because we are huge fan's of Andrea Camilleri. His Inspector Montalbano Novels have made the character the most famous Policeman in Italy. We were thrilled to be able to hire a Driver/Guide for the day(best Four Hundred Euros we have spent for a while) We visited all of the Filming locations and had Lunch at Enzo's. The food was wonderful, best Sea Food ever, great service and a beautiful view over the Sea.

Vigata restaurant

Reviewed By Romina C

'Vigata' restaurant is my favorite place in Porto Empedocle where to have delicious food. I love seafood 'antipasti' and all kind of pasta with fresh fish. The ambience and the service is fantastic, wine included. Don't forget to ask for 'cubaita' a typical Sicilian dessert made with almonds, the chef can cook it instantaneously. I really recommend to spend your holiday or travel nights in this restaurant. Enjoy it :)

We called only half an hour ahead and this very nice lady welcomed us in her beautiful garden and served us a delicious meal. We would have been happy with a simple pasta dish but got treated with a full meal - wonderful! We also enjoyed chatting with her and learning about her business and life in Sicily. Highly recommended.
