Ristorante Basalto
The restaurant of Palazzo Sangiorgio, elegant by tradition
The quality of service and ingredients, along with its sophisticated authenticity, make the restaurant at Palazzo Sangiorgio truly unique.
From the elegant simplicity of the table settings and furnishings of the indoor room to the private garden adorned with the Vaccarini staircase and the sophisticated presentation of the menu's
selection, everything reveals a concept of refined minimalism, stripped of all frills to focus solely on what matters: the dining experience at Basalto.
In a discreet environment that can accommodate up to 60 guests, the staff at the Ristorante Basalto will take you on an exclusive gastronomic journey through the flavours of the sea and land at the foot of Mount Etna, accompanied by the bold notes of fine Sicilian wines from the restaurant's cellar and topped off with local desserts made with fresh ricotta, creamy pistachio, and refreshing lemons.
During the warm Sicilian summers or mild autumns, the private garden of Palazzo Sangiorgio opens up to the culinary magic curated by the Ristorante Basalto. Immersed in the privacy and mufled urban noises that the lush vegetation provides, you can savour the fine dining creations designed by Chef Mirabella and his team. Here, the aesthetic harmony of the dishes finds its architectural counterpart in the regal Vaccarini staircase gracing Palazzo Sangiorgio, to create an atmosphere that transports guests to the noble tradition of Sicilian Monsù.
