La Buona Forchetta

A great restaurant interesting menu's. Very friendly and competent staff all very helpful. Good value for money.The local scillian wine was very good and reasonably priced.
We used it for five evenings in early September and felt very much at home. Sadly no photo I took my phone for a swim.

Amazing service; the staff is very accommodating. I am fussy, so the chef cooked me a simple spaghetti that wasn't on the menu, as well as garlic bread, which isn't a traditional Italian dish. I enjoyed my meals and went two days in a row! This is a family-run business, and it shows how much they care. I would definitely recommend a visit. Amazing people and food.

The best food in Balestrate. Homemade pasta and pizza with fresh ingredients made by the owner.

Discover the authentic flavor of homemade & feel the warmth of Italian hospitality while you enjoy local dishes... One of the things that makes the food fantastic is the fact that Ignazio & Terry grown their own vegetables for the freshest ingredients!
Don’t miss their homemade limoncello, the best I’ve ever tried.

Nice family restaurant. We came for dinner as I saw on the board "cous-cous di pesce" and wanted to try this traditional sicilian meal. It looked amazing and was very tasty. Pasta trapanese was good too. And almond parfe was interesting taste. Greetings to chef!

Really amazing place! Have been in a city for a few days and it was the best food we had. Both pizza and pasta were amazing and also low price. Service was also lovely! Really recommend!

A very international group of friends ended up somehow outside the restaurant and after a quick glance, we decided to have dinner. I am veggie and do not like to eat too much in the evening. I had a salad. It was the tastier salad I have ever had. Later the owner/chef told me proudly that he grows his own vegetables. The caponata was excellent and the limoncello at the end was perfect.
The service was excellent. Friendly, warm and with a real passion for food.
At the end the owner gave me a massive courgette from his bio garden.
We all loved the food and the wonderful, warm and lovely experience.

Beautiful food, locally produced and cooked by a friendly family. Highly recommended, particularly if you enjoy seafood.

We had dinner here on 13 September. We've been lucky enough to dine here before but not for 4 years so we were hoping it hadn't changed. We weren't disappointed! Still the same lovely owners who grow all their own vegetables. We had grilled swordfish and tomato and onion salad - the fish was very fresh and the salad was absolutely delicious! The tomatoes were the tastiest we'd had all week. Highly recommended.

Great food and friendly staff. Our son tries to convince us every day to eat ‘the best pizza’ there. He was successful 5 times during our holiday ;) the Busiate and the insalata di mare are also great! Thank you!

Nice restaurant, friendly service

The best seafood pasta in SICILY. I have tried the dish in several locations, and this one gets the first prize. It was simply perfect in every bite, the sauce was incredible. I have to say that the staff was great as well, the waiter was speaking perfect english. I strongly recommend this restaurant. <3

Fantastic food friendly staff higly recommended

Excellent grilled fish and white wine, the owners Tereza and Ignacio offered more than we could hope for. Excellent choice! They made our first day in Sicily a memorable one. Thank you!

Great time with Tereza and Ignacio! Food is outstanding - definitely get the bruschetta, amazing!! Great atmosphere, service and selection. The prices are very reasonable for the quality. A must-see place if you are in the area.

Everything was great!! Thanks

Very good fish meal at reasonable price

Best sea food in the area

Sabato sera cerchiamo disperatamente un locale dove poter cenare in ora tarda e dopo essere stati respinti da vari ristoranti perché già le cucine erano chiuse, cosa incomprensibile in una località di mare , chiediamo a questo ristorante e siamo stati subito accolti senza alcun problema e già questo vale 5 stelle!
Il tavolo scelto è stato prontamente pulito e apparecchiato .
Abbiamo ordinato un antipasto di mare della casa per 2,uno spaghetto ai ricci e un' orata alla griglia accompagnata da un insalata con lattuga e pomodorini,mezzo litro di vino bianco della casa e una bottiglia di acqua effervescente.
Subito ci hanno portato da bere con il vino bello fresco e molto piacevole al palato dunque un vino di discreta qualità .
A seguire è arrivato l'antipasto con insalata di mare con polpo e tocchetti di pescespada ,gamberi grigliati,cozze gratinate,sarde a beccafico ,cozze scoppiate e 2 ostriche . Che dire? Tutto freschissimo e buonissimo!
I camerieri sempre gentili ,premurosi e attenti. Infatti ,appena abbiamo completato l' antipasto nel giro di poco tempo sono arrivati gli spaghetti ai ricci e l'orata.
Una vera goduria! Un sapore eccezionale!
Alla fine abbiamo preso anche 2 sorbetti al limone buonissimi, freschi e cremosi con un gusto eccezionale.
Abbiamo avuto anche il piacere di parlare con lo chef e così abbiamo scoperto che tutto ciò che ci è arrivato a tavola è a km 0 perché loro coltivano le verdure, l'olio,i limoni sono di loro produzione e il pesce arriva freschissimo ogni giorno.
Il conto ottimo per la quantità ma soprattutto la qualità del cibo.
Io e mio marito abbiamo trovato il nostro ristorante preferito a Balestrate e lo consiglio a chiunque si trovi a passare da queste parti.
5 stelle più che meritate anzi dovrebbero essere molte di più!

Die beste Pizza in Balestrate!
Auch bei der Pasta nur Frische Tomate und super frisch zubereitet. Das Mandel Parfait ist auch hervorragend!
