While walking all around Enna all day we built up a big appetite. We started looking for a restaurant that I read about called Trattoria Grotta Azzurra. Somehow we were lucky enough to bump right into the restaurant, but like usual… we were waaaayyy early. 7pm is usually an hour early we have found with all the restaurants. So we walked around town a bit more and came back around for the open. We weren’t disappointed. It was exactly as I read. A very quaint mom and pop restaurant with traditional Sicilian dishes.
We were talking to the owner/chef/ waiter… ha.. and he was telling us that they have been in business for just over 50 years! .. and I have a feeling they haven’t changed very much in that time frame including the decorations. 🙂 This place reminded me of one of our favorite “hole in the wall” Italian joints back in San Diego called Volare.
