Amiable Antonio's beguiling bistro is all about quality Sicilian seasonal ingredients combined in creative dishes that excite the senses. Book a table in the stylish coved-ceiling contemporary dining room or plant-fringed terrace, and dive into one of the exquisite antipasti medleys, focusing on either "mare nostrum" (sea) or "terra nostrum" (land).
For simple, homemade cucina povera (simple "peasant" food) head to Concetta and Eliseo's popular place with a rustic dining room and buzzy terrace on Modica's melodious main drag, offering continuous service from 9 to 5. Among their hearty traditional plates, start with their signature hot ricotta, followed by lolli pasta with cottoia broad beans and slow-cooked pork in tomato sauce.
Vegetarians and vegans will find their options can be somewhat limited when dining in Sicily, so they will be delighted to find Singola, a restaurant that focuses on organic vegetarian and vegan food with Sicilian flare. It’s a little outside of town, but it's got a lovely garden setting.
