"The perfect choice for those who love the sea, courtesy of the splendid views of the Mediterranean through the picture windows in the dining room. Guests can observe the two chefs at work in the open-view kitchen, where they prepare top-quality and surprisingly creative dishes, with an obvious focus on fish and seafood. We particularly recommend the smoked spaghetti with butter and anchovies – a creamy dish full of intense flavours, which is seemingly simple yet demonstrates real culinary expertise and makes the journey here well worthwhile! The wine list includes an excellent selection of Sicilian labels, from Etna to the offshore islands – the sommelier will be happy to help with recommendations. Why not start your meal with the superb 700 di Cusumano, a top-quality Chardonnay and Pinot Nero blend?" - Michelin Inspector
If you love fine dining, I highly recommend this place!
The service, atmosphere, and flavor of the food are truly on another level🍷✨

We have spent 5 weeks touring Sicily and this was the best restaurant we went to by a long way! Such a shame that they were not busy on the night we went but I am pretty sure they will be queueing down the street very soon!

A memorable experience, from a wonderful meal to the amazing view and friendly, attentive staff. This restaurant is excellent in all respects and shouldn't be missed.

Our dinner was good in a relaxing environment. The restaurant has one Michelin star, but in our view the food needed to be more refined to meet the demanding standards. Having said that we had a nice evening meal.

We reserved a table for Mother’s Day lunch and chose their 8 course tasting menu. From the moment we arrived we were treated with white glove service. They took my coat and scarf and brought a purse hook for the table. We were seated right on their clear glass windows with the Mediterranean Sea as our lunch view! Their tasting menu was exquisite, every plate paired with a nice wine, our favorite dish was the Smoked Spaghetti with Butter and Anchovy. So delicious! We could not recommend Votavota more highly and they certainly deserve their Michelin Star rating. You don’t need a special occasion to enjoy Votavota. A visit to their fine restaurant must be on your list of things to do while in beautiful Marina di Ragusa.

I lived my best life and Cittina (sp?) the Sommelier made me feel the most welcome and cared for. She paired Sicilian wine with every dish. So far in Italy a woman eating on her own has been left to one glass of often not very good grillo and that’s it. I may be single but I like good wine and she knew what to do.
Every course was astounding but the amuse bouche, smoked linguine with butter and anchovy, the mare mare (crocher fish) pared with the wine chosen was the best ever 😍
The other serving staff were so kind speaking to me in English and anticipating what I needed - gave me space to finish my wine and coffee and some beautiful petit fours from an old fashioned sewing box.
Well done well done. Very good value for a Michelin star, have a light lunch if you go for dinner but you can do 4 courses I promise it’s worth it.

Such a wonderful meal. Exquisite, friendly service, beautiful setting. As we worked through the tasting menu, each dish was my new favourite. Meal was a great value for money, you won't leave hungry, and the amuse bouche and petits fours were highlights as well. I can't recommend this spot enough, 5/5 👌

Excellent experience. Staff is professional, friendly and on par with the food and location.
The restaurant is a modern structure nicely relating with the Marina did Ragusa waterfront. Traditional, local ingredients tastefully reinterpreted for a high-end eating experience.

Great Seafood! Definitely try the experience with wine pairing.
Not a "quantity" restaurant, but definitely a quality one.
Small plates but very well balanced and, all and all, very fulfilling.
I definitely recommend it if you're in the area!
