Situated in the historic centre of Linguaglossa, one of the most picturesque villages around Etna, this restaurant is part of the highly recommended hotel of the same name which occupies a delightful 19C palazzo. The Pennisi family are at the helm, alongside chef Giovanni Santoro, a partnership which has resulted in a long-standing Michelin star here on the slopes of Mt Etna. Santoro creates extraordinarily varied cuisine, which is not surprising given that Linguaglossa is situated in a mountainous region with rich volcanic soil that produces a whole host of unrivalled ingredients, with the added advantage of being just a few kilometres from the sea. Superb wine list, including magnums, vertical wines and top-quality labels from Etna.
