Dioniso - Menu

great food and service had fried calamari with shrimp and fish al crudo platter with salad and fruits forgot the dessert was remember the taste : please book ahead to avoid disappointment.

We had a lovely dinner here on our only night in Ortigia. The staff are personable and informative. The food is light and fresh and a welcome change from some of the usual, heavier Italian cuisine. The stuffed artichokes and meatballs were particularly good.

we had dinner there last night in Sicily and it was one of the best. friendly and attentive staff, beautiful atmosphere and eating is great! fresh combinations and very tasty! the portions are designed so that they can eat a three cure meal. absolutely recommended!

We enjoyed a very good meal at Dioniso which is located in a very characteristic section of Ortigia. The menu is more interesting and varied than many of the other restaurants offer in this amazing town. I would recommend the fried calamari, any of the...pastas and the octopus with potato terrrine. Service was great, overall very good dining experience.

my mother and I ate here at november. we had cauliflower soup, grilled artichokes, risotto with walnuts and the meatballs with pumpkin pure. it was all excellent and the personal was attentive. an English menu has been estimated as the wide command of English. of the personal. it is located below a stone bomb in the ortigia part of syrakus. very charming, well done.

what for a perfect ring in we have prepared and served each cure with such care in this very special, intimate restaurant – from swordfish tartar to carrots, from risotto with tintenfisch and garnel to otopus on a bed of...Kickpeas and rosmarin purée (and of course, New Year's Cotechini lenses). barbara and their staff are knowledgeable, friendly and professional. this meal and the entire experience in dioniso will stay with us in the did very long. thanks!

We were staying at the Grand Hotel Ortigia which is really less than blocks from this restaurant but since it's up a little alley street, it can be hard to find. Well worth the look The food and service are phenomenal. We could not...decide on what to eat so they gave us an Ipad with pictures of the food. Great idea. Very helpful service and suggestions. Started with Stuffed artichoke and fish soup. One of us had risotto but the winner was the citrus pasta. It was amazing. Never tasted anything like it before. We highly recommend this place if you are in Ortigia.

The restaurant is tucked away in one of the many side streets, but nonetheless, tourists seems to find it as it was packed the night we were there. We had not book, but being early enough we did get a table for four. The food,...mostly organic, is locally sourced, and a good deal of explanation regarding the food is done by the staff. The food was indeed excellent, and gluten free options are not a problem. The wine recommendations too were good. Staff friendly, but extremely polite. Only issue was acoustics and the noise level. The guests were not rowdy, but just the fact that the restaurant was full and with everybody talking it made it difficult to have a conversation. For four people, in...

So many good things to say about this charming restaurant...the staff are great, the welcome sincere and there is a clear narrative about all the food being local Sicilian as well as the local wine. Food and wine excellent. Stuffed artichoke and squid to start...with and then meatballs and prawns shared as main courses. The meatballs would have to be the stand out dish. I liked the use of an IPad to show photos of the food..useful. The only thing that let the venue down was the music which where I was seated (just in to the small room on the right hand side with my left ear towards the music) was loud and horrible. Reworks of old songs...done badly...it was SO bad I cant believe that even th...
