Sutt'a Ràvia

Cefalù


Fresh seafood holds centre stage at this cute blue-and-white trattoria near the beachfront, an offshoot of the neighbouring fish market. Order bargain-priced pasta like linguine alla tarantina (with mussels, white wine, garlic, olive oil and parsley, €7) from the Classic menu, or splurge on fancier fare from the Prime menu: grilled Mazara prawns or sea bass–stuffed ravioli with citrus zest.
