"I probably had the best pasta of my life here. They make fresh pasta. Make sure you are there to have a nice dinner and you are not in a rush. By reading other reviews, some people are complaining about the wait, we didn't feel like we waited a long time, considering the quality of the food. The service was great. Thank you"

"This compact and quirky place has such a delightful atmosphere for food that is a work of art. The artichoke and prawn ravioli are worth a swim across the Mediterranean! Lovely people. Perfect wine suggestion. Funky music soundtrack. What more could a single traveller want?"

"Beautiful delicate pasta, fabulous wine. Must try while you are here. Drawn in by old school handwritten menus, mentioning a wait for meals, as good food takes time. We loved the eccentricity of the place, and couldn’t have wished for a better last meal in beautiful Ortigia. Try the prawn ravioli- sublime & the Mt Etna red wine as a special treat to yourself."

"La Vineria music cafe is my favourite restaurant in Ortigia. Family owned/run, offering a delicious and varied menu paired with a great music vibe and good service. They make everything fresh in-house. They change up the menu frequently, meaning every visit introduces me to another local dish and a new culinary experience"

"We had a wonderful experience at La Vineria Café! The ambience was cozy and beautiful. Francesca and Titi provided great, friendly service. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. The highlight of their menu is their wide selection of homemade pasta. They also have many wines to choose from. Francesca made a wonderful suggestion of a local Chardonnay which was very nice. Highly recommend for a casual dinner!"

"Wonderful food in what feels like a very authentic setting. It's a bit chaotic which adds to the charm. Hostess was charming, music got better and the food suggestions were very good. Cash only though which is v. inconvenient... apparently the card machine is broken"
