Il Gambero Pazzo

Because of the food, I’m giving the highest rating. For appetizers, we had seafood bruschetta, 9/10, seafood risotto, 10/10, which was rich in seafood and extremely delicious, and grilled fish (tuna, swordfish, octopus, amberjack, and shrimp), 10/10. The location is not urban, but the atmosphere is pleasant. The staff is okay, could be much better, but it depends on the individual. If we ever come back to Catania, we will definitely return here. Come and enjoy the seafood!

The most charming restaurant in Catania. The food was delicious, gray seafood, the best I ate in Sicily. Atmospheric, peaceful garden. Hospitable and nice service. Prices very ok! adequate to the quality of the served dishes. I highly recommend it!

The best of best Italian fish restaurants for me. They suprise me with 6 level fish menu . Quality of food was on top and bill is normal. I recommend them for people that like mare and delicious food.

Giving the very good reviews I was expecting to have a delicious meal. I ordered the mixed sea food pasta, the presentation is definitely very good but there is no taste (in my opinion). I love pasta and I had much better ones. I wouldn’t recommend this place ( to note that I had only pasta here). The atmosphere is not to my taste, the floor is covered with this green carpet and there is no background music.

Our Sicilian hosts recommended this place for a seafood dinner and it was delicious. This is how food should always taste like. Service was great. Felt very comfortable. Even got flowers for International Woman’s Day. 🥰

We got in without a reservation. Food was ok. We had oysters, seafood tagiatelle and swordfish fillet. However, after that we had to go to another restaurant gor a second dinner. Here they skimp on fish! No seafood, just pasta and empty clam shells 🤣 After eating a grilled horse at another restaurant we finally got full Now that is a proper food! 😁

AMAZING! I’ll be dreaming of the marinato pazzo (what a steal for 35 euros!) and the fresh fish of the day, orata, in the acqua pazza style. Can’t wait to go back and try the pasta. The seafood here is the best we’ve had in Sicily so far on our 2 week trip! got a bottle of their house red wine for 8 euros, very yummy and satisfying dinner! Romantic ambience on the citrus tree covered terrace

Extreme nice food! We loved it! Octopus salad, tuna steak, prawns, tiramisu… all were 5*! Highly recommended! Don’t be fooled by the area or the look from outside, it is worth to try if you are in Catania!
