The cuisine continues to focus on Sicilian recipes and ingredients (meat and fish alike), which are personalised and imaginative, showcased on four tasting menus and an extensive à la carte. Various elegant dining rooms, a chef's table for four guests who can observe the chef working close at hand, a well-stocked wine cellar on the first floor (home to around 1 300 labels), and a mezzanine space for more intimate dining all add to the appeal.
