Vineria Modì, Restaurant in Taormina

The food was absolutely divine! The wine pairing was among the best we've ever had, and they also had an excellent wine list. This restaurant deserves at least one star! Thank you for making our engagement unforgettable and creating such a memorable evening.

If I could add more stars, I would. What a wonderful culinary experience and hands down, one of our top memories of Sicily. From the start, the staff were so attentive and friendly and this, we could see was with every single table. They literally couldn't have done more for us. We did the 6 course menu and with all of the little welcome courses and extras, that was plenty for us. Every single course, there was so much detail and thought put into it from the chef, it showed how much passion she has about food. Their wine menu is ridiculous huge but we had so much help from the sommelier, he picked a fantastic local wine based on what we wanted. I just can't fault this restaurant and literally can't wait to visit again the next time we are in Sicily.

Such an incredible culinary experience! Beautiful setting on a relatively quiet street, but you still feel the hustle of the town. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful. The food was to die for! Explosion of taste with stunning presentation. All in all an amazing night! Highly recommended!

Had the absolute best experience through and through with everything with this place!! Starting from the impeccable service that was casual enough for us to fully trust the sommelier Paolo to give us what’s good to pair with our meals, Danielle was also there to explain what we’re having and everything was absolutely exceeding our expectations. Had the best time!! Food was really good and the wine pairing was excellent.

Absolutely amazing experience. The food was exceptional, full of flavour and beautifully presented, even the bread was to die for. The wine list was out of this world, huge and a great selection of wines. Everyone who served us was professional and friendly and created a great experience for us. I highly recommend this place.

This meal will live long in the memory. Having eaten at many fine dining restaurants in London and the world over, this restaurant is right up there. The food is so unique and exciting. The staff were absolutely lovely. Special mention to the sommelier who recommended a lovely bottle of Sicilian white grown on Etna’s slopes and a desert wine from the south of the island - both beautiful matches for the menu. Go if you have the chance - you won’t be sorry!

Fantastic experience, with service and food both first class. We share two starters and one primi, and had a secondi and desert each. The meal kicked off with lovely amuse-bouche and breads. The starters were excellent; flame grilled octopus and steak tartare (capers and black truffle really elevating it from a usual French affair). The primi was their signature dish - a lamb ragu with explode-in-your-mouth bottoni filled with a cheese sauce. The secondis were turbot with mushroom and sea bass with a meunière sauce - both great. The deserts were a deconstructed coffee, mascarpone and chocolate dish - very nice. A lovely jelly also arrived with the bill. The service also needs a particular mention, our waiter and sommelier were both first class and very confident with his menu recommendations. We have eaten some fantastic meals in Sicily over the course of our two-week trip, and this is the best of it.

Refined and well balanced dishes, friendly staff and great recommendations from the sommelier - not only for there but wineries to check out during our trip on Sicily. DO NOT SKIP THE PASTA. whatever you do have the lamb ragout pasta it’s awesome.

Nice service, friendly and prompt. I would recommend if you're in Siena. Great location on the piazza

Had an excellent Christmas dinner here. The wine really stood out - both a Sicilian sparkling wine and a Sicilian COS Red Frappato recommended by the waiter. The octopus starter was fresh and crispy, the soup had many flavors and was creamy. Recommend. It was quite pricey though.

Far and away the gem of the Taormina restaurant scene. Hidden away in a quiet side street, away from the frenzy of Corso Umberto, this is a premier dining location, perfect for a special evening out. The chef, Ettore, is very creative with this ingredients and presentation, and offers a unique, ever changing menu with interesting items. The professional staff was welcoming, and quick to offer suggestions on what to get. I settled on a dish of octopus tentacles for appetizer, and a lamb dinner, both of which were cooked perfectly and retained their flavor well. The wine selection is fairly extensive, and contains quite a few fantastic Sicilian wines. Outstanding food, charming atmosphere, and well worth the price. Don't leave Taormina without trying it.

Excellent food, excellent service, nice, intimate but modern atmosphere. Not cheap.
