We were stopped during our excursion through the market in Ortigia by a very friendly woman who offered us a taste of cheese. Next thing I know, the four of us are laughing, eating, and joking not only with this woman, but with an older gentleman (I think her father) who reminded me so much of my Sicilian grandfather. I've... More

This place makes the tastiest, best-value sandwiches in Siracusa....but the main reason to go there is the "experience" - you get given so many hams, salamis, cheeses etc. to taste that you feel like you've eaten a full meal (for nothing!) by the time you leave! Don't go if you're in a hurry because your sandwich will be prepared in... More

We stopped here because of the friendly folks out front inviting us to taste their cheese...we left as part of a wonderful family who shared their love of cheese, love of people and love of Sicilian friendliness. Not only is the cheese wonderful, the cannoli excellent...some of the best we've tried, but the family makes you feel like you've known... More

Really just a gourmet deli not a restaurant but very good with great staff who know what they are taking about. A different experience.

The best sandwiches in Siracusa, the warmest welcome in Siracusa. What more to add? You have to try the smoked mozarella, the fresh peccorino and the dryed tomatoes. This is our official supplier of cheese, ham, and a lot of the rest for the last 4 years. One reccomandation, do not have breakfqst before going, they will feed you so... More

Me and my friends just went inside just to look around.... and we got stuck there for half an hour eating the best sandwiches in our lives, drinking wine and chatting with the owners (amazing people). Mozzarella affumicata con fumo di mandorle and Pate di carciofi e mandrel will make u crazy. You will love that family! :)

You could not say, that you've visit Syracuse if you didn't try sandwich with smoked mozzarella prepared by Gaetano. The best service, smiling and friendly Gaetano and his wife, delicious food and long lasting after-taste after you've tried truly Sicilian welcoming hospitality. Every morning try a bit of 100% sunny mood :)

The best sandwich and the friendliest people we met in Italy! A great family run deli with a super friendly atmosphere. We stopped in to grab a panini and were welcomed in to the store, given some cheese to try by the lovely people behind the counter, we also tasted a couple of sandwich pieces, ordered our own and even...
