Trattoria Tiramisù Restaurant in Taormina

Sat outside so didn't get a chance to take pictures of much, We were in a rush to eat and see everything in Taormina. My mom (who is famously unhappy with most dishes) said this is the best pasta dish ever! (She had the Tagliatelle Mare, which was a seafood with flat pasta in a very aromatic flavorful mushroom sauce) If you only knew my mother, this would be the highest of praises. If we could give them 10 stars for her dish, we would. I ordered the grouper pasta, which was only ok because I am not a fan of fish as a protein source and thought raisins and pistachio might be good, but the taste was too exotic for me. I tried a bite of her dish and it was good. Too bad we were in a rush so we couldn't enjoy things. Their bathroom has a single sliding door on the left side of the restaurant that leads to a sink. To the left of the sink is a door for the men's toilet and right side of the sink is the door to women's toilet. Didn't have time for dessert or coffee because we were in a rush. Wait staff was a bit uppity but maybe it was just the maitre'D there.

Excellent Food, great service, romantic ambiance. Tip: Make a reservation as dinner time gets busy. i recommend coming in person to make rezy for following evening as online is not available. For two hungry people we ordered 3 pastas, a bottle of wine & 1 tiramisu. Everything was exquisite --- make sure to ask for olive oil with the complimentary bread.

Best pasta we’ve had in our trip from Rome to Sicily. A bit on the pricier side but man, no leftovers for us! We came back for dinner twice in our 3 nights in Taormina

Best restaurant I've been to in Sicily and one of the best restaurants I've been to. One of those places where every dish was amazing. We had the pepper muscles. We've all had great muscles in a garlic sauce, but I think the pepper in the garlic sauce just made these better. The lobster pasta special and shrimp pasta special (I'm pretty sure these are permanent specials) were two of the best pastas ever! They came out piping hot and perfectly al dente. If forced to pick, I'd go with the shrimp pasta, but get both. Also had some great Etna wine. Make a reservation and DON'T miss this place in Taormina!

Very nice small trattoria with delicious pasta and fresh seafood. Also the tiramisu was perfect and local wine very good! The staff was great!

Excellent food and service. The restaurant was recommended by a friend of mine and it was a great choice. Food is very good, fresh and delicious. I don’t usually eat many carbs, but at this restaurant I broke my rules and regret nothing. Spaghetti diavola, seabass in potato crust and tiramisu are a must try. We also had the seafood appetizer, it was good, but not as delicious compared to the other dishes. Service is also excellent, waiter was nice and everything was just perfect.

Great pasta… the sauces are next level. The tiramisu was alright, too soaked on alc for my taste but the cream was tasty. The service was very friendly, made efforts to sit us even last minute. All in all lovely spot.

We loved everything about this restaurant. The food, the ambiance, and the service. Make a reservation because it gets crowded and they turn people away. Also, the gentleman that come sing make it that much more special.

Let's face it, Taormina has a LOT of places where you can enjoy a quality meal... ...and in our time here, THIS has been the place to go. No, it isn''t on the Corso Umberto (so you'll save some € right off the top), and it is not a large restaurant - so your food HAS to be just right or they wouldn't survive. Not only are they surviving, they are THRIVING, because their food is so good! We'd read about the Swordfish with a pumpkin sauce and fennel on another review - my wife had that and it was astounding. The morsels of swordfish were bite sized, tender, and oh, so flavorful! Yes, this is definitely one of their signature dishes - although our waitress (fluent in English) advised her to get a side dish to complement her order - she went with grilled vegetables, which turned out to be the perfect accompaniment. My Linguine con Fruta Di Mare was spectacular. Mouth watering to look at, it was loaded with morsels of squid, mussels, clams and shrimp. Fantastic! Whatever you choose to have, DO save room for dessert! Their tiramisu is without a doubt, among the top three i've ever had. Buon appetito!

I ordered the lobster pasta. For 30€ (it's expensive for this area) you get only a small and only half of a lobster. The taste was ok, I had far better ones. My friends ordered pasta Norma (eggplant pasta) for 15€ which you normally get for 8-10 € elsewhere and these were also just ok. In short: this Place is considered slightly more expensive than other places. They automatically charge a tip of 2.50€ per person. The taste is very average and we would not come back again. The Ambiente was also ok.

Hands down the best pasta I have ever had! My only sadness is that I don't live in Sicily so I can't eat it more often. I highly recommend!

Nice place, nice people and amazing food ! Lobster Linguine and Tiramisu are a must ~ if you are in Taormina - go to this restaurant !

Been going here for years and the food is consistently excellent and the staff friendly.

Taormina is a beautiful place. This restaurant only serve Italian, if you are traveler or from other countries, be ready for racial discrimination. Regarding the food reviews, We never had a chance.

This place was hands down amazing. I can't recall the names of the items, but everything single thing we ordered was hands down amazing. We were blessed with an amazing server Irina, who was so sweet and kind. She gave us reconnections and made sure we had a pleasant experience. We came here for lunch and spent a good two hours and enjoying the experience. I'm going to dream about this place.

I will preface this by saying that my SO is a chef and so we both have incredibly high standards for quality of food when we choose to eat out. That being said, everything about this meal was perfect, and if you are staying in Taormina or are willing to brave the narrow, winding streets to drive here, you will not be disappointed. It was our first night in Sicily, we were staying about 40 min away near Riposto, and we were lucky enough to call at 6:30 on a Friday and get a reservation for 7:30. We called them at 7:30 to let them know we were searching for parking and would be a few minutes late, and they were so gracious. Found a small parking lot (see my illustrated photo for directions), handed over the keys to our rental car for 3 euro/hour, and ran over to the restaurant. We sat inside and it was lovely. I ordered a bottle of white wine, and my SO and I, who are huge sushi/sashimi lovers, shared one portion of the Sicilian style carpaccio (shrimp, salmon, swordfish, and tuna) and it was to die for. He had the shrimp diablo (can't remember exactly what it was called on the menu) and he loved it, generous portion at 9 large skrimps! I had the Pennette di Mimmo which she warned me was medium spicy, but it was so perfect and I was nearly brought to tears with my first bite. For dessert I had the tiramisu and he had the chocolate and white chocolate mousse, both excellent. Bill came to just under 100 euro and I would have paid much more, it was just that good. One warning about the parking I recommended and using gps - when you exit the parking lot, you must make a left down the narrow street, which ends a block later forcing you to go left or right. We followed our gps down the hill and to the left, and ended up in a street too narrow for our car (VW golf, not a large car!) caused some damage, and wound up having to reverse about 100 feet and make a zillion point turn to turn around and go back a different way. All that is to say, if your gps directs you to go down the hill and to the left DONT DO IT, go right instead, and let your gps re route you. Buon appetito!

Been all over the island and so many of the restaurants are tourist traps with terrible food. The food here is epic! So happy we happened upon this establishment.

This was epic. The special of the day was big red shrimp in a sauce of oil, garlic, peperoncini, and brandy. It was impressive. The tiramisu was also good enough to live up to it being the namesake of the restaurant. I would definitely eat here again. Don't let the number of languages they translated the menu into scare you away. There was a wasp flying around my food and head though on the terrace so it could be a good idea to sit inside.

Best seafood meal of my life!!! We shared the seafood salad, pesto pasta, and seafood chowder. Our server not only spoke the clearest English I've heard since we got here, she also recommended a terrific wine. The staff is very warm and prompt. Don't miss the tiramisu! You won't regret it. We went on a Thursday night around 9pm - got to experience some fun local performing musicians as they strolled through. Reservations are a good idea, although they squeezed us in inside.

We had a delicious dinner at Trattoria Tiramisu. We shared a very fresh mushroom ravioli and eggplant and ricotta pizza. Tasted so good ! Service was excellent. We also had a grilled vegetable salad that was so good we forgot to take a picture before devouring it.

One of the most amazing meals in Taormina! We walked in and were seated immediately. The staff is very friendly and explains everything well. Food was delicious.

Trattoria Tiramisu does not disappoint. We had the tuna fillet and shared a salad and potatoes finished off by a lovely tiramisu. The portions were just right although I recommend sharing a tiramisu. For me, that was the cherry on top of the meal- rich and decadent...Trattoria Tiramisu definitely delivers on its namesake dessert.

The tiramisu was best I have had in Taormina. Probably also better than anything I've had on the mainland or back in New Jersey. The rest of the food was on par with your typical Taormina "typical Sicilian kitchen"

One of the best meals I had in Italy on a recent trip. Tiramisu cane recommended by several locals in Taormina (including a retired chef). It did not disappoint. The eggplant involtini was incredibly rich in flavor. The swordfish with pumpkin and fennel entree was phenomenally fresh and super unique. The service was excellent - our waitress told us that they had the best tiramisu in Taormina, and she wasn't kidding. Highly highly recommended for a top notch Sicilian meal.

This is one of the culinary experiences that should not be missed! Sea food is excellent, steak is fantastic and desert is superb. As desert we had panna cotta and tiramisu but we cannot decide which was the best. I strongly recommend this restaurant. I suggest to make a reservation if you decide to go in weekend

I had the Sicilian Sushi which consist of Thinly sliced Tuna Swordfish Shrimp with Lemon and salt , Excellent My beautiful girlfriend had Swordfish with Pumpkin and sage I was told that they freeze the Sushi to 20 below with kills any Bacteria what ever they do it was the best i ever ate Service excellent A must in Taormina Ciao

Brilliant food and service. We had the spaghetti with seafood and the spaghetti with grouper and mint and pine nuts. Both were outstanding. Couldn't fit in any tiramisu so immediately booked again for later in the week and will fast for lunch so we can do justice to their amazing menu. Also, be careful as there are two restaurants in Taormina called Tiramisu so check the address.

Delicious food and impeccable service. Highly recommend for authentic Sicilian seafood and pasta! Nice wine list with many local reasonably priced selections!

Very good food at reasonable prices! We come to Taormina often and this is the best so far!
