Macallè sicilian

We had a really nice time at Macallé Sicilian. The food was delicious—every dish was flavourful, and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with just the right mix of warmth and elegance, and the music contribute to it. Highly recommend giving this spot a try!

The good was amazing. The chef who visits the table loves what he is doing and conveys that to his guests. He answers any questions and is knowledgeable about the area and the food.

This restaurant is on a beautiful quiet side street with impeccable service and food! We would dine here again anytime! 💕🇮🇹💕

The Chef is the immediate centre of attention as he greets you expansively on entering. That is part of his character & continued when each dish was presented and he gave them the blow torch treatment. It reminded us of some restaurants in the 1970s in the UK and France when the head waiter cooked your 'Steak DIane' at the table finishing it off by flaming off the alcohol. Then a small table with growing herbs was brought over. With panache he snipped off, various fresh growing herbs to add to the dish. Overall he put a smile on our faces. The two servers were good. We had a lovely salad Ortigia which also contained some tasty seasonal fruit. The octopus and beef Tagliata received the torch and we both loved them. The red wine is kept, properly, in a wine fridge at 18 degrees. We drank a bottle at 30E which we enjoyed. That is about the starting price point for the wine. We enjoyed our meal. The menu price of our meal with salad, octopus starters & two tagliata & drinks was 166E.

Style. Fantastic freshness in the fish. The man knows how to get flavour out of food. Great joy. An evening in Ortegia not to missed.
