Reviews Summary
Ristorante Gourmet 32 Taormina offers innovative takes on Sicilian cuisine with a charming ambiance, particularly on its terrace. Diners praise the exceptional food quality, friendly service, and unique dishes. However, some reviewers note slow service and occasional order mix-ups, alongside concerns about value for money.
"Fantastic service, food, atmosphere- a wonderful team who not only shared their knowledge and experience of the cuisine but also went above and beyond to ensure we had a great dining experience. The cheese selection with honey and marmalade was sublime, the homemade agnolotti with shellfish sauce was unbelievably good and the steak excellent. It was my husband’s birthday and the staff brought out a slice of candle-topped chocolate cake, really a memorable evening- thanks - check out the offer on The Fork if you would like to experience this with other budget-friendly options - definitely worth it ☘️"

"The service was friendly, but despite there being only three tables in the restaurant, they managed to mix up our order. As a result, I received my meal 10 minutes after my husband, then he had already finished. In exchange, they offered a glass of wine, which was kind of them. The food was decent, but I didn’t find anything special about it."

"The food was nice. Though, the service was unfortunately very slow. We had to wait a long time to order, we had to wait more than 20min for our tiramusi (when we reminded, it came straight away) and we had to wait some time to pay, so eventually we stood up and went inside to pay.
It’s a lovely atmosphere and has nice food. Staff were friendly too. So it’s a shame we had a bad experience with the service."

The best restaurants in Taormina
Situated opposite Al Grappolo d’Uva, where we love to have aperitivo, is Gourmet 32. It has a lovely, large outdoor terrace which has adequate covering for if it rains, however the inside is really nicely decorated too. My husband ordered the Pasta con le sarde, which whilst it wasn’t the most elegantly presented one he’d had, he said it was the best flavour-wise.
