Location and atmosphere good, but just too many excellent experences before - so nothing special. In Taormina you can find better.

Having read the comments I still dared to have an evening meal there once. I must say, it was not bad at all. Nothing exceptional, but the place is centrally located, the food was good and the portion rather big. I had a spicey meat (lupus something...) and grilled vegetables for contorni. The staff was nice and polite, they warned... More

I had the cannelloni alla Siciliana, my girlfriend had a seafood risotto. Service was fine, cannelloni was great, risotto was ordinary. Overall, a somewhat pleasant experience for the price we paid. BUT THEN... 45 minutes after we left the restaurant my girlfriend had to bolt for "il bagno". Soon after, I too had an episode. Luckily we had already made... More

This restaurant is right in the main street, oddly underneath a library, and there is lots of people watching available. The food was average, the service was fine, and the price was average. Fine for an ordinary evening meal, but not fantastic

....of a great dining experience is surly and rude staff serving pre-prepared, microwaved food, this is for you. If you'd prefer freshly cooked authentic dishes served up by attentive service, keep walking past this place. Mercifully this was the only bad experience we were to experience during our 10 night stay. My Wife had the seafood spaghetti where the shells... More

I ordered cannolini the cheese was burnt but the pasta was raw!!! My cousins & parents were equally disappointed and this page is not long enough for me to list the atitude of the... More

The only thing going for this restaurant was the prime location on Taormina's main commercial street. Unfortunately everything else was abysmal... Waiter taking the order was rude and things went downhill from there.... Food was poor in quality and presentation and one of the waiters had such a body odour problem that I thought I was going to be ill...... More

Situated in Corso Umberto, the main shopping street in Taormina is an ideal spot to taste fragrances and flavours of Sicilian cuisine. In this restaurant you can taste probably, the best, in the world famous "pasta all Norma" and in the world famous either, Sicilian Cassata, dessert from ricotta cheeses rich with candied fruits. Although situated in the heart of... More

I really cant believe some of the poor reviews that Il Ciclope has received. It is located right on the main street so don't expect privacy and romantic atmosphere . What we did receive was a first class mixed sea food platter and a very good fillet steak cooked to perfection, a nice bottle of wine and the best canolli... More
