Osteria La Gazza Ladra

ottimo cibo, personale molto gentile, abbastanza veloce e a buon mercato, occhio solo alle porzioni, di tutto quello che si chiede di portare un piatto

This restaurant is two minutes from the main fountain square. Traditional Sicilian fare was really tasty served with good wine and local beer. This was recommended by Roberto at Sciala B&B and was a good one. It is a little small so book if you can

Highly NOT recommended! The food is pre-cooked and reheated from air fryer or microwave. Everything was very greasy and a bit too salty. It's the worst restaurant food we had in our entire 2-week Sicilian holiday. Service was friendly. The place is clean. View menu

Lovely atmosphere, reminiscent of the old Left Bank restaurants, popular with locals and tourists alike. Vey good house wine, free limoncellos at the end, nice dessert, friendly staff. Tapas style dishes seem to be the way to go and were what locals ordered. The pasta dishes were sadly very poor,

Hele leuke avond gehad bij deze osteria. We zaten buiten aan eenvoudig meubilair.Er worden direct wat typische Siciliaanse hapjes gebracht. De kaart is relatief beperkt maar heeft veel verse gerechten van de streek.De caponata is heerlijk. De service door de eigenaar en de serveerster zijn voortreffelijk.

Free and good snacks to begin with. Nice! Good house wine €10 for a small bottle. Staff nice. But food really very bad. Parmeggiani just reheated in microwave. Spaghetti syracunasa unedible. Don’t come near this place! (But when I complained they decided not to charge for my pasta. A very pleasan’t surprise. View menu

Siamo venuti a cena un lunedì sera trovando,a sorpresa,una vivissima Ortigia.Ci siamo accomodati in un localino piccolo ma accogliente,che profuma di casa.Abbiamo cenato Con un giro di antipasti eccezionali.Ottime le polpettine del giorno, buonissima la parmigiana ma quello che mi ha positivamente stupita è stato lo stinco d maiale!Saporito,la carne morbidissima e cucinato a regola d'arte.Il bianco mangiare dello chef , sublime.Consigliatissimo per chi vuole gustate una cucina semplice ma di qualità

Potrei fare una lista molto lunga dei sapori della cucina di questa piccola e accogliente taverna, nel mezzo di ortigia. ma senza nulla da rimuovere alla qualità del cibo, preferisco dimorare sul fattore umano per questo tempo. per quasi una settimana io e mio marito ci siamo trovati come magnetizzati dal cibo, ma soprattutto dalla calda e professionale accoglienza della cresta e del suo partner. della loro caponata e dei totani che non avrei mai avuto abbastanza, sono semplicemente squisiti. mentre i loro sorrisi, generosità e accoglienza rimarranno tutto, ben fissato, nel cuore.

We had a pleasant evening at this family run osteria. The sisters who took care of us were charming. We sat at a tight outdoor table to take in the atmosphere of via Cavour. We were started off with excellent bread, caper berries, fava beans and hard boiled eggs. The carafes of Nero d’Avola were solid and a great value. We shared a bunch of dishes in order to try as many things as possible. Sicilians have a way with eggplant and their eggplant parmesan was deeply flavored without being heavy. The caprese salad and caponata were excellent. The fried mushrooms weren’t quite up the the level of the other appetizers. The pasta a la Norma was excellent. The spaghettini Siciliana was interesting a... View menu
