Cutilisci - Ristorante sul mare

Cutilisci Ristorante sul Mare is a charming spot located by a small harbor in a cozy alleyway in Catania. We had dinner in the evening on the beautifully lit terrace, which created a warm and relaxed atmosphere. The food was fresh and flavorful, with a nice selection of local dishes. The staff was friendly and spoke English very well, which made the experience even more enjoyable. A lovely place for a relaxed seaside dinner.

The restaurant is a very good choice. Avoiding the hustle and bustle of the city center, you can find yourself by the sea in a quiet area. Delicious dishes, mainly seafood-based. Well-cooked with high-quality ingredients. The staff does not speak fluent English, but this is not an obstacle. Prices are reasonable for the area.

We were at this restaurant for dinner. First of all, I have to mention the staff who were very friendly and polite. We liked the food, I can't say we were blown away, but it was good. You can enjoy the great view and enjoy the food, we left satisfied. Thank you P.s. It is advisable to reserve a table for dinner, as the restaurant is very busy in the evening hours.

Today was an excellent local restaurant for lunch. The food selection was interesting, and the wine I chose was perfect. Check the menu QR code to see what is on the menu or if you want to drink more than a glass of house wine. As we were not offered a wine list, which, in my experience, is unusual? There were a few service issues. As we were having a sharing menu, we specifically asked our last server to serve our stuffed octopus after our pasta. There was no confusion, but both came together. I can only assume it was coming to the end of the lunch service. However, the restaurant is open all day. A slight annoyance was that they raised the sun blinds as we were the only people left, although my wife was still eating and had to move to enjoy the rest of her meal. However, all in all, it was a good experience as a ‘non-Sicilian’ in a local eatery. This restaurant is in a fantastic location with good local, fresh, tasty food. It would be wonderful to come back as a local.

We read all of the reviews, and we decided to give this place a try. Let me say that it was a fantastic choice. Luigi, our waiter took care of us. He gave us suggestions for his favorites, and they did not disappoint! We tried a bit everything, and it was all fresh & delicious. We arrived early to get a nice table by the water. All of the locals were out enjoying the water front, and we got a true glimpse of this community. The restaurant area was kept clean, but all along the waterfront there was quite a bit of trash. It’s a shame the city doesn’t maintain this area better. Don’t let that deter you. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience!

Amazing food from starters to dessert. We had ragusano for starter, pasta with aubergine and pasta with shrimp everything was delicious. For dessert we got almond parfait - very good! The restaurant has a great view of the water in a little quiet street.

The food was delicious! Just wine arrived late than meal. Consider that this place is over busy and waiters mess up time to time. But still I would like to come back and recommend it .

This was a great find. Lovely restaurant overlooking a small harbour away from the hustle and bustle of Catania. The food was great and we paired it with very nice and resonably priced Sicilian voigner. My tuna pasta, half tartar, was delicious. The restaurant was busy, mainly locals which is a good sign.

A very good afternoon stop for bubbly and chips. Recommended. Seaside view. Wait. More than a view. The patio is seaside. Bubbly - Santa Tresa Il Grillo Brut €22. Quite good. Homemade potato chips. Delicious. Service was spot on. €31.50 for 2

Cute place but not so friendly people working. There was 8 of us and we wanted to sit by the water and the waitress acted like we were an inconvenience. We asked for bread and we were brought bread but no oil. The pizza was great though!!!

I haven't been to Catania in 9 years and I found this restaurant yesterday. I had a pizza that is outside the realm of a typical Italian pizza but wow I was in for a delightful surprise. I was going to post then but I started to get really bad service and decided the pizza was so good that I was just not going to post. The next evening I decided to give it another try. I also remembered that I wasn't in USA anymore and that if I wanted something I needed to be assertive and ask for it. So after my second attempt, I had first and second plate. The waitress recommended squid stuffed with couscous, which was not on the menu. To my delight it was one of the best meals that I've had in years. I think I might come back tomorrow too.

Cute little place on a small street. Wanted to try some authentic Italian pizza. The service was good and the staff was friendly. They have an English menu as well. Pizza was good and nice atmosphere. One thing I wished they had was calamari!

Great food and atmosphere. Service was a little slow - we waited almost an hour for pizza, apparently due to the fact that the oven was still heating up but we'd been waiting 45 mins before anyone told us that. Other than this it was a good experience.
