For fine dining, head to this restaurant just outside the historic centre. Tables on little balconies offer a delightful setting to enjoy homemade pasta all'agrigentina (with fresh tomatoes, basil and almonds), grilled lamb chops or spada gratinata (baked swordfish in breadcrumbs). Superb desserts, including homemade cannoli (pastry shells with a sweet filling) and almond semifreddi (a light frozen dessert), round out the menu.
