An old-world trattoria where Sicilian seafood is served the way it used to be. The right place for a fish dinner in Catania.
For a proper pizza night: a relaxed, easy-going dinner after a day out.
A seafood restaurant on a street in the historic centre, a little off the main tourist routes. Try the seafood pasta and the raw fish.

Mount Etna, Taormina, Syracuse, Aci Trezza and the Playa beaches by train and bus.
Where you can go from the Central Station, 150 metres from Catina Domus, and how long it takes.
