Restaurants

Of course no itinerary is complete without food recommendations, especially in Sicily which is the pinnacle of soul food. Influenced by its historical and cultural background, Modica's cuisine is characterized by a blend of Mediterranean flavors, local ingredients, and unique cooking techniques. 

 

Here are some of our favourites -   

 

  • Osteria dei Sapori Perduti: Known for its rustic charm and traditional Sicilian recipes, this cozy osteria offers a delightful dining experience. Don't miss their homemade pasta dishes and fresh seafood specialties


  • Accursio: A michelin starred restaurant, just steps away from the house. Accursio Craparo is known as the chef of two sicilies - blending together the best of east and west Sicily to bring depth of flavour to his plates. If you are planning a special occassion (or even if you are not), a reservation is recommended (https://accursioristorante.it/prenotazioni/)


  • Hemingway: A personal favourite - this is where a lot of Modicans congregate in the evening for a relaxed evening, great music, live events and lip smacking food. You can never go wrong with Hemingway

 

  • Locanda del Colonnello: Set in a charming historic building, this restaurant offers a refined atmosphere and a menu inspired by Sicily's culinary heritage. From antipasti to desserts, each dish is expertly prepared using high-quality ingredients

     
  • Ristorante La Contea: Tucked away in a quaint alley, this trattoria is a hidden gem known for its warm hospitality and flavorful dishes. Indulge in hearty meat and vegetable-based specialties, as well as homemade desserts.

 

  • La Bella Napoli: Right below the house, this pizzeria is a favourite for locals and is a great place to unwind after a long day
