Il Pesce Azzurro

Syracuse


Seafood-loving locals swear by this easy-to-miss osteria (casual tavern), its white-and-blue interior somewhat reminiscent of a Greek-island taverna. The menu favours simplicity and top-notch produce, whether it's sweet, succulent Mazara shrimps drizzled in lime juice, plump vongole (clams) paired with spaghetti and garlic, or tender polpo (octopus) served alla luciana (in a rich tomato and onion sauce). Honest, flavour-packed goodness.
