Ristorante La Vela

Ristorante La Vela is a refined Italian restaurant nestled along the picturesque marina in Pieta. Inspired by the culinary traditions of Sicily and the Mediterranean, Ristorante La Vela celebrates the finest ingredients, with particular emphasis on fresh fish, seafood specialities and authentic Italian flavours. Beyond the food, La Vela is about creating an experience. Its elegant yet welcoming atmosphere, carefully selected wine collection and attentive personal service make it a destination for those who appreciate good food, paired with unique wines and the pleasure of sharing a memorable dining experience. Warmer weather also allows guests to enjoy their meal on the terrace by the water’s edge.

The menu changes regularly and offers something for everyone. However, La Vela prides itself in bringing you the gems of authentic Sicilian food, wine and olive oil, with special focus on the bounty of the sea. A popular special, the ‘antipasto di crudi e cotti’ delivers a delectable journey across tastes, aromas and textures. Next, feast on a fresh catch of the day, maybe baked ‘al sale’ or prepared to your liking. La Vela also features an attentively curated selection of wines, some of which are imported directly from boutique winemakers and unavailable anywhere else. Conclude your meal with the signature – ‘cannolo scomposto’, or a bite of exquisite chocolate accompanied by a shot of classic or vintage rum.
