Gagini Restaurant
A creative restaurant housed in the 16th-century workshop of sculptor Gagini, featured in the Michelin Guide and focusing on local catches.
Located at Via dei Cassari 35, between the Vucciria Market and the Cala port, this restaurant is set in the 16th-century workshop of sculptor Antonello Gagini and features a terrace. It is listed in the Michelin Guide and previously held one star, though the current page does not display a star, and diners note it has lost its star status. The dishes offer a modern interpretation of local catches and Sicilian traditions; the guide mentions the cocoa linguine with black garlic and hazelnuts and the 30-egg-yolk tagliolini, and multi-course tasting menus are available, changing with the season. Expect to spend around €95 per person. Open for dinner only; booking in advance is recommended.
