At Quattro canti, inside a former book shop , this restaurant is by far our favourite, they offer a modern take on traditional Sicilian dishes with fresh ingredients ( the menu changes day by day ) . Really good value for money and amazing wine selection. But be prepared to que .. they don’t accept reservations!
