À Putìa - Enoteca e Cucina

Such a beautiful place. I was passing it by for countless times - that cozy interior really cought my eye, but finally visited only on our last evening in Naxos. And this was the perfect choice to finalize our wonderful 2 month-long trip around Sicily. I feel like in every review section of every restaurant ever you can find a comment saying "one of the best we had in Sicily", and here I am, repeating the same, plus, definitely the best I had in Naxos. The food was exceptional: fresh, juicy, really flavorsome - just on another level comparing to the average restaurant here near the seaside, however, on the same price range. Do not skip this place!

We stumbled upon this amazing little restaurant by accident during our stay in Giardini Naxos and were blown away by the quality and taste of the Sicilian food served here. Because we liked it so much, we even decided to come back here for our last evening in Sicily. Everything we had tasted amazing and the sea food was super fresh and of great quality. What stood out were the pistachio and chocolate lava cakes - to die for! Also some of the best tuna tartar I ever had. The atmosphere both in the restaurant and on the terrace is great. We really liked the vibe inside, since it is also a wineshop it feels highly authentic and alive. By far better than any restaurant we tried in the Taormina area. Highly recommended! Better to make a reservation because they are often booked out (we got lucky when we discovered it).

Wow what a restaurant. What a passionate, fabulous and talented chef with new creations added to the menu regularly. The front of house service is equally impressive - the whole team are exceptional and in unison. This is my husband’s and my favourite restaurant in the world. I’m not just saying this - this is absolutely true. We have been eating here for nearly 20 years and now with the recent Michelin recognition, the restaurant has gone up another level with sea food gems on the menu, traditional scilian dishes that nobody does as well as Salvatore, paired with hand picked wines. Deserts are traditional as well and new and unique combinations like chocolate and figs. This experience is not just eating a very special meal but an event that stays with you and makes your holiday memorable. I love this restaurant.

We have been visiting A’Putia for nearly 20 years now and every time it gets even better! Beautiful food, beautiful drink and most importantly, beautiful people! The food is delicious, presented in a simple but amazing way, the wine selection is extensive and easy to pick from as it is on the shelves all around you! The team are attentive and the service is excellent, the atmosphere is so relaxing and every time we visit it feels like we have come home! We had our wedding meal at the restaurant and visit every year in August on our anniversary! It is something we look forward to all year long! Sometimes we come back in December too!

In June 2025, we spent our long vacation nearby. We visited every open pub and bar in Giardini-Naxos and a few in Taormina. But this was the only one we've been to more than once! It's a wonderful place, full of delicious flavors, freshness, and courteous service. We dream of returning to Sicily and visiting À Putìa again.

Had the best food here in Giardini Naxos. The servers are very nice and know what they’re talking about. I loved the vibe of the restaurant. The food was amazing. The antipasti, pastas and the fish were so fresh. The wine was great too. They also sell all the wines they serve. We were also surprised by a band that suddenly performed in the restaurant.

This place was such a find! Super authentic, very Italian, and seriously popular. definitely make a reservation upfront. We started with a mix of fish and seafood that was fresh and delicious. For mains, we had tuna and swordfish, both full of flavor. And don’t even get me started on the tiramisu… absolutely perfect. Light, creamy, and the ideal way to end the meal. Great atmosphere, amazing food—can’t recommend it enough!

What an amazing dining experience. The staff and the quality of the food was exceptional. A must do when in Giardini

Best restaurant in Giardini Naxos by far. Right next to the beach towards the end of the strip. Indoor and outdoor dining available. Food is spectacular and the servers are super nice and welcoming. You must make a reservation in advance, books up every night.

I' d had Frozen pizzas that taste better. Total rip off. When pizza came out it was clearly uncooked. Owner picked up a slice with his un-gloved hand. Disgusting

Absolutely mind blowing and mouth watering. Been here about 3 years ago the last time I visited the area, and still as good as I remember.
