The Terrace on the Sea

Perched on the rooftop of the Grand Hotel Ortigia, La Terrazza sul Mare is where fine Sicilian dining meets sweeping sea views over the Ionian coast. The menu leans into traditional Sicilian flavors, and the Sunday brunch spread — with house-made pastries and made-to-order eggs — has earned its own following. The setting alone makes it worth a reservation, but the attentive service seals the deal.
