Sciacca has plenty of very respectable places to eat, where you can enjoy fresh seafood done simply and well. This place, though, exists on another level. The cooking is simply sublime and the good really out of the ordinary. We enjoyed it so much we went back twice during our five days in the town. Sure you can eat for less elsewhere, but not as well. The octopus with pork cheek starter is to die for, and the langoustine with leeks and peppers is similarly incredible. The service was very attentive, the level of English great and the food simply astoundingk.  

Non ho parole! Tutto ottimo: dalla selezione del pane, al servizio curato. La cucina, una sciccheria: dai marinati allo spaghetto rustico con gamberi e crema di melanzane...il dolce poi...si vede che fate tutto voi e con amore, complimenti!

Had an absolutely fantastic lunch here today. Lovely staff, children’s menu, great wine by the glass, and some of the best food we have eaten in Sicily. Had octopus starter (€14) and a fillet steak (€20). Both dishes were superb. My wife had a seafood starter and risotto, both excellent. Prices are not the cheapest, but the meal was worth every penny

Excellent food, service and surroundings. This would be an outstanding restaurant in any major city in Europe.

Non credo che le parole possano descrivere fino in fondo la qualità riscontrata su vari livelli nell'Hostaria del Vicolo. Proverò a fare del mio meglio...
