Ristorante Cortile Arabo a Marzamemi

A culinary journey like no other. The experience at Cortile Arabo was the perfect package. The staff were enchanting, warm, sincere and incredible. The view and the atmosphere were completely perfect especially on the sea terrace. The multiple little 'amuse bouche' food theatre pieces between the courses were exceptional. I won't spoil them in the review, you must try them for yourself. It was by far the most perfect end to a holiday I have ever experienced and I extend my gratitude to the chef and the staff. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Sicily.

We had dinner in this beautiful restaurant with my fiance'. It was a Saturday night and we did not have a reservation, but the staff made everything possible to accomodate our request. The food is very nice, we have ordered several courses (you can see the pictures) and everything was delicious. Very interesting was the oil emulsion, served in a toothpaste tube..very lovely experience. Also the tomato dessert..delicious. We also had a drink in their bar, it is a beautiful lounge area right on the see. Definitely recommended. Staff speaks great English.

A fabulous lunch ! This rates up there with the best Michelin restaurants we have attended. We had starters, shared first course and mains. Plus dessert. The white wine was local and superb. The staff are fantastic. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Everything was super, and the towelettes were amazing! Highly recommend.

Good service. Decent atmosphere. Pretentious and odd tasting food. This meal was a letdown. The red prawn risotto was overwhelmingly salty, wasting the delicate prawns. The swordfish, a dish we've enjoyed countless times in Sicily, was surprisingly dry and bland here. That cooking style might suit Chilean sea bass, but not swordfish. Skip both.

Pretty disappointing experience - food was old and not prepared particularly well, appetisers were just sad. Service was weird as well - one lady was acting like she is pretty unhappy to see us. Toilet was cloaked and disgusting, took a while for someone to clean it. Left the place regretting we spent our only evening in Marzamemi there.

Best place EVER. Loved everything, from the cozy atmosphere, amazing location by the sea, friendly and professional staff, and the food the die for. The chef has really gone above and beyond, congratulations

Michelin star worthy. Local dishes with a twist, great presentation, and we sat outside with a great view to the sea. Good value compared to similar restaurants back home.

Wonderful. Lovely atmosphere, fantastic wait staff and epic food. We opted not to do the 5 course meal and regretted it! You can spend a reasonable amount or a lot, it is up to you. Definitely worth booking at table and trying this place! You will not be disappointed!

What an amazing place. The ambience, the food and wine were fantastic. The service is second to none. Worth every penny
