Antica Stazione Di Ficuzza

This is a great little town and we stopped to see the old hunting lodge, but found a wonderful restaurant too. The food was excellent and I would recommend the almond and zucchini pasta. My husband had the mushroom and black pig pasta which was good too. Can't wait to come back again.

It started to rain as we arrived at this Old Train Station, but we could see that it is beautifully restored. We were warmly welcomed and seated and the place is very attractive indeed. The food was really tasty and we took the recommended mixed antipasti and wow was it good. VERY good value too, recommended.

This hotel is a railroad station converted into a hotel and Event Venue. The rooms are modest but comfortable. Be sure to purchase the full board option because the Chef here is renowned throughout Sicily. The meals were excellent and so much food we told the Chef to give us smaller portions and he obliged us. If there is an event going on when you are there, it can be quite noisy. View menu

We were here for a family wedding. The accommodation is basic but reasonable for the price charged. The location is attractive, even in December and the building warm and cosy, especially by the big fire. No complaints about the food although a little disorganised in the morning. Can't agree with other comments about the town itself which we found very run down and dirty. Overall a good stay.

Went here with family for lunch and was not disappointed. A massive fire place (like from Citizen Kane) with a small fire burning kept us warm and set the ambiance. Any dish from the antipasti selection would be recommended. We had the baked ricotta , stuffed mushrooms , salami etc. and all was divine. We followed this with pasta. The pistachio cream sauce and bacon pasta was a highlight so was the butternut pumpkin and ricotta sauce pasta. If you're a foodie would encourage you to venture here for a meal. Also try the deconstructed cannoli . My kids raved about it.

Our meal at the Antica Stazione was excellent, worth justifying the overnight stay in the hotel. The menu specializes in regional dishes, ingredients, and culinary traditions. We enjoyed our appetizer platter and mixed grill main course as well as the wine list, but the real stand-out for us what the homemade pasta dishes, which were both exquisite (mine had a pistachio and speck sauce that I wish I could be eating again right now; my husband's was an excellent porcini cream). Our waitress was also very kind to us. A special dining experience in a one-of-a-kind venue (a converted old train station) with plenty of woodsy atmosphere and charm. View menu

It is not everyday that you get to eat in an old train station! From many traditional Sicilian appetizers to the first course with amazing pasta, to the dessert (panna cotta pictured below), we left fed with one incredibly delicious meal. The staff was efficient and helpful in telling me about their many gluten-free options. This was the tastiest meal on our recent trip to Sicily, and probably also the cheapest. Moreover, we enjoyed walking around the property, and could not get enough! On our next trip to Sicily, we will definitely make a special trip to picturesque Ficuzza to stay at the hotel and eat again at this wonderful restaurant. This would also be the perfect place for a banquet or...

The food here is lovely. The atmosphere might get a bit noisy as it is hugely frequented by locals (hundreds, seriously! , so it is not the ideal setting for a romantic quiet dinner. But the food here is extremely good and well worth the effort to get to it. It is also very close to a gorgeous hunting lodge built by Ferdinand I, which is also worth visiting. A walk in the forest after lunch will help the digestion of the amount of food taken in : . The menu is on most occasions a fixed one consisting of about 10 types of mouth watering antipasti, followed by two types of pasta and a main which most cannot down. We once ate from the a la carte menu but possibly that is reserved for dinner or...

When planning our visit to Corleone and the anti mafiamuseum CIDMA we read about this old restored trainstation which now houses this hotel/restaurant. Ficuzza is nearby Corleone so can easily be combined in one visit. Beautiful drive from Palermo to the inlands of Sicily. When entering the small village we found the route along a forestall leading strait to the entrance of hotel and restaurant. There is a large free parking spot. The building itself has been entirely restored as can be seen on large pictures on displays. This gives an insight as how the old building looked before and after. Inside the building there are signs to remember to the translation's function, like costumes, hats an... View menu
