Ristorante Pizzeria Il Castello

Tucked away in the historic heart of Novara di Sicilia, a town known for its undulating landscapes and rich tapestry of traditions, stands Ristorante Pizzeria Il Castello. Its name, translating to 'The Castle', pays homage to the town's medieval heritage and the grandeur of bygone eras. The exterior beckons with its stone facade as you approach Il Castello, evoking images of ancient fortresses and tales of knights and nobles. Step inside, and the enchantment continues. Vaulted ceilings, rustic chandeliers, and walls adorned with tapestries and heraldic symbols set the scene for a dining experience that's both regal and warmly intimate. Il Castello's pizzaiolos, craft artisans, command the restaurant's centrepiece – a grand wood-fired oven. Its flames dance and flicker, casting a golden glow over hand-stretched dough that bubbles and crisps to perfection. The pizzas, crafted from age-old recipes and the freshest local ingredients, are a symphony of flavours. While classics like Margherita and Calabrese hold their own, adventurous palates might be drawn to specialities like the 'Siciliana Bianca', a white pizza topped with fragrant truffles, local cheeses, and a drizzle of golden Sicilian honey.
