Ok, so we ate lunch Here. The place is really nice, ambiance is great. We literally sat under a lemon tree, the decor is good. Lunch however, for 46 euros was far from good. I got the pesce antipasti, it was tiny portions and just ok. Hubbie got the cous cous ghibli, fishy tasting and dry. We have had cous... More

Having seen the Michelin badges (no stars just "mentioned") on the door we went in with high expectations. We were immediately disappointed by the unwelcoming attitude of the staff, miles away from all other Michelin-mentioned restaurants we have been around the world. Timing and food was ok, hence the average rating. Not sure what the Michelin guys saw, perhaps all... More

The restaurant has an amazing internal garden where you can have dinner. I had bruschette (excellent!) and one of the most yummy fish cous cous ever! I also asked for advice for the wine and they gave me an outstanding Sicilian wine called Quater. Incredible!

I've been to this place after reading the tripadvisor reviews. I must say that the reputation is deserved about the couscous, is really good and I've tried different types ! However, there are several things that I did not like about the restaurant .... The service is one of those things, you can not pay 2.5 euro per person for... More

I attempted to eat here twice. On the first occasion (speaking italian) I asked the host when they open. He looked at me for a moment...then said around 7 7:30. I said ok, I'll be back and as I was leaving he said, "I can sit you outside here, that way you can smoke, enjoy the weather and watch the... More

Plenty of restaurants in San Vito, we went to Profumi di Cous Cous, used to be the absolute best, now it's just OK, it has become a sort of feeding machine, very nice atmosphere, beautiful garden with tables under orange trees, reasonable service and very fast. Their goal is too feed as many customer as they can and the food... More

Have just returned with my family from san vito lo capo where we had the excellent luck to come across this hotel and restaurant. Whilst we were non residents and unfortunately spoke no italian we were very warmly welcomed by the staff and looked after extremely well on the several occasions that we dined there. We did this after such... More
