We had 7 restaurant visits during our stay in Taormina and this was certainly the best one. Beautiful setting, unobtrusive and very competent service and the food was just great. We did not choose the degustations menu but picked from the menu. The risotto was a dream, main fish dishes just right and nicely presented and the deserts were an... More

The view, the food, the service...You will not be disappointed. This was one of our favorite Taormina experiences. We sat outside on the terrace and the weather was spectacular. I will definitely return and highly recommend. The dining room looks so beautiful...next time I will go for dinner!

This restaurant was next door to our apartment, after a long days drive, it seemed the perfect spot, also it had a five star tripadvisor symbol on the front. Trusting my fellow reviewing travellers, we headed in for dinner. Thank you lord, there is a god, and he/she cooks at this place. The restarant is set within the same confines... More

Being gluten free/celiac, I'm always slightly worried before visiting restaurants that don't advertise whether they cater to my diet. Villa Antonio was perfect - providing me with gluten free bread and pasta with no surcharge. Our dining experience was incredible - my friend and I ordered pasta with lamb ragout that was simple but divine. On top of this, we... More

Our visit to Villa Antonio was for a special occasion, they provided the perfect setting, service and attention that was required. The food was perfect as were the views. Everything about the restaurant was first class. The local Etna wine is a must try!

21/6/2012 Taormina without Villa Antonio is like an ocean without fish. Lino, our 'simpatico' taxi driver from Giardini Naxos, drove us in no time to the restaurant, where a skilled and friendly staff were waiting for us. The restaurant is beautiful and has a warm atmosphere If the weather is your ally that evening, try to sit outside. You'll be... More

This restaurant was booked based on reviews in Trip Advisor. We dined there on our first night in Taormina ( a Tuesday night) - the restaurant wasn't busy and we had a great table on the terrace looking out to sea. I suspect that in peak season it will be very busy however and there are only a limited number... More
