The Restaurant
Come to Tarantola for lunch or dinner.

Try something different. Tarantola's rustic restaurant is set in the middle of vineyards and olive trees in the delightful wine country of western Sicily near Alcamo. This is an actively functioning estate which produces several wines. |
It's the real Sicily, as natural and genuine as can be.
