After having enjoyed Cefalù’s art, or simply having spent a day at the beach, all you need to do is look for a nice place where you can relax and enjoy some typical dishes, with fresh fish or meat, accompanied by good wine. In such cases, it is a good idea to leave prepared, looking for information on what the local traditional dishes are. Among the many typical dishes, for example, you must try ‘Pasta a taianu‘, literally ‘pasta in the pot’, seasoned with meat sauce, fried aubergines and pecorino cheese, served on an earthenware pot that the locals cook on the occasion of the feast of San Salvatore, the town’s patron saint.

Cefalù is renowned for its exceptional restaurants that will satisfy your every culinary desire. Among the many venues, we recommend first of all Bottega Tivitti, a restaurant located right on the beautiful promenade. Tivitti is the perfect solution for any occasion, as it offers delicious first and second courses with fresh fish, as well as high quality pizzas and burgers, all to be enjoyed with a view of the sea!
If, on the other hand, you are in the mood for a quicker option, Da Enzo is the place for you. It offers authentic Sicilian street food both in take-away and delivery format: here you can enjoy specialities such as sfincione, pizza, pane cunzatu and arancina!
Finally, if you are a lover of history and culture, you cannot miss Bastione & Costanza. In the context of the marvellous Bastione di Capo Marchiafava, you can enjoy dishes here that are an ode to local culture.

Food is culture, and tasting is only one way to know Cefalù.
