Locanda del Marinaio

It was our night in Cefalu And we ended up having our dinner at this Restaurant. My God, What an amazing experience of flavours we had. I ordered their cod fish with Panko and eggplant mousse. It was so delicious. My husband had their fish pasta, which was exceptionally good. Though the portion size was small, I had still recommend this place for their delicacies

Best meal in my Sicily trip. Best ceviche I have ever had in my life. The tuna entree was phenomenal… I don’t remember the name, see photo. Lamb entree was very tasty. Even the olive oil was fantastic. Service was wonderful, nice outgoing people. 💛 Dessert: perfect!! (Semifreddo). Thank you so much 🧡🧡🧡🙏🙏🙏🙏

Delicious food cooked to perfection. Excellent attentive service. It’s no wonder that they’ve been on the Guide for many years💙

The interior seating of the restaurant is quite nice but the outside seating place is not as much nice as you would expect from this restaurant. The prices are higher and the portions are quite smaller compared to other restaurants in the area. The pasta pieces were a bit clumped to each other. Overall was a bit disappointed. Service was good.

Nice presentation of the food, nice ambience. The grilled fish was extremely well cooked, perfect texture and flavor. Overall a very pleasant meal.

Absolutely beautiful meal. So satisfying and elegant. The octopus starter and the fish of the day were perfect. Thank you!

We spent a week in Rome and had lots of good food and one outstanding meal at a restaurant called Old Bear….. then we came to Amalfi and the food, service and atmosphere here at locanda del marinaio is definitely next level! I highly recommend the Mezzi Paccheri allo scoglio (seafood pasta)! Make sure you save some bread to soak up the sauce with!

Disappointing meal after reading good reviews. Tuna tartare was tasteless and not fresh. Pasta main with fish was absolutely tiny. We left the restaurant hungry. Average tourist trap

One of the best meals in Sicily! The wait staff were very friendly and we really enjoyed the whole experience. All dishes were served at the same time. We had 3 dishes from daily special - sardine & tomato, pasta w artichoke and shrimp, and local fish w vegetables. We also ordered risotto with prawn and fennel and almond.

In Cefalu there´s many tourist traps, even if possibly less than in other touristy cities. Still, finding really good food is not easy. The best is, ask the locals. That´s what I did, although the local actually was my cousin, who regularly comes here to dine. We had a range of fish based dishes, all of them consistently good. The service was impeccable, and even if this restaurant does not have a terrace on the cliffs, as many other restaurant nearby, eating here is a good experience too.

No hospitality at all, bad service, food is average. It is not worth to wait. Water was really unfriendly and arogant.

Friendly staff and nice outside eating, however food is the most important thing and that was a bit of a let down. The entree was nice even though the mussel was a bit undercooked. The same issue with the clams in the primi piatti.. When asked if everything was fine I gave my feedback so hopefully the undercooking was a one-time issue. For me that left the visit a mediocre one.

I had passed away this restaurant several times and finally in July I want to look up going twice. The menu is very fresh and inspiring. The wine selection as almost anything you can think of. Though I would recommend reservations luckily on the two occasions I went was able to get a table after a short wait. The food taste amazing and service was fast and professional probably some of the best restaurant staff in cefalu' work at this restaurant. Appetizers or very tasty and you could tell that the best really was creative making the selections. From the dessert menu I chose the Citrus lemonade dessert which was amazing. If you're interested definitely don't miss this wonderful location.

This is no comment on the food as the waiters were so unpleasant and arrogant that we needed to leave this place before placing our order
