La Bettolaccia

GREAT FOOD. Just marvellously executed, quality ingredients, “simple” recipes. Everything was great, so far the most exquisite we’ve eaten so far in Sicily and that’s hard to say, cuz all we’ve done it’s eat spectacularly.

The owner i believe was the person who helped us order the food though we were new to Trapani he helped us choose the right dishes as we were new to Italy, the food was so good and the service was great too. We had to make a reservation in advance though and that helped. We loved the casatta we had from this place too

Quiet/chill atmosphere. Great for a romantic feel or personal atmosphere with you and your dinner companion. There were many great reviews before coming here and we were not disappointed. The selection of dishes were amazing. The menu is also available in English with their QR scanned menu. The food is fresh and the pasta is fresh. The tuna steak was absolutely delicious. So tender and tasty! Give this place a try when you’re Trapani for sure! Also they were dog friendly :)

Amazing food ! Not cheap but worth every cent !

This place combines great atmosphere with very tasty and a bit sophisticated food. The buckle white wine is amazing. We ordered mix of 5 starters and it was really interesting choice of foods - great octopus, amazingly fresh fried baby squids, tuna with onion and black rice with fish and last but not least - shrimp tartare. For main dish we chose busiate with shrimps, busiate with San Pietro fish and trenette with sword fish eggs and shrimps. Everything was fresh, nicely served and full of taste! Remember to make a reservation here, it’s hard to find a free table even before the season.

You cannot go wrong here. The food is absolutely amazing.All of our dishes were superb. We tried Trenetta black with red shrimp and buffalo mozzarella stracciatella, baked sea bass fillet and Red Sea bream. The flavors are explosive. You need to reserve in advance, specially, in the month of August.

Really fresh Trapanese food with incredible flavour! Simple ambience but incredible staff/chef that will recommend the best dishes. We had the “tasting” antipasti, busiate and cuscus. All excellent. Good dessert too

Great selection of Trapanese dishes - one of the best capanotas I had in Sicily (note it’s served cold rather than lukewarm - so slightly different to others). I indulged in my favourite busiate ala trapenese and san Pietro, which was also great but nothing to compare it with because it was the first and only time we’ve had it. The former was amongst the best I’ve had. I truly enjoy the “almonds” instead of pine nuts for the pesto. Paired the food with the house white. Staff is great and welcoming.

We arrived in Trapani after 12 hours of travel. We wondered in and were so happy that we did! We were welcomed like a valued guest. Lots of delicious, interesting salads different then the ubiquitous caponata. The pasta was homemade and tasty! Ate there twice while in Trapani.

Really fast service, border line pushy. Coucous soup better than fried, both good, but the soup broth is to die for. Lots of local wine available Mix starter, shrimp tartar and octopus really good.

Very nice restaurant. Modern, clean decor and efficient service. We ordered the vitello with orange sauce and rosemary potatoes (very good), the Trapanese pesto busiate pasta (good, but not as good as Gusto or Hostaria Sette Sapori) and the busiate pasta with courgette, raisins and pine nuts (very good). The servings were large. We also had a very fresh caprese salad (excellent) the almond parfait (very good) and the Sicilian Cassata (very sweet and had alcohol in it). Overall a very good meal for a reasonable price and in a lovely setting. We recommend it.

Stumbled upon this place during our second night in Trapani and have returned twice since then to ensure we tried as many dishes before leaving as deciding what to get at this place is quite a challenge. On our third night, we saw a few familiar faces who were onto this place as well - it's that good. The restaurant offers something for everyone: vegetarian, meats, seafood, salads and even a kids menu. Great wine selection; house wine is 4.5 euros for half a liter. Service is wonderful and consistent. Risotto with shrimp (make sure to have it with heads as that's where the flavor is) is cooked to perfection - creamy and packed with flavor of the Mediterranean Sea. Situate a couple of blocks from the main street, this modest gem is going to blow your socks off!
