In the 15th-century wine cellar of sculptor Antonio Gagini, this restaurant is a great place to escape the chaos of Via Cala and the nearby Vucciria Market. Given the historic location, you might not expect an exciting menu, but the kitchen takes traditional ingredients in interesting modern directions. Highlights include spaghetti verdi alla chitarra con ragù di triglie e finocchietto (green spaghetti with a sauce of tomato, red mullet, and wild fennel) and flat tagliatelle noodles in a lamb sauce with shaved Ragusano cheese.
