For generations, Roberto Marotta’s family lived in Milazzo, a port town on the northeast coast of Sicily that looks out to the Aeolian Islands, a jeweled necklace in the blue Tyrrhenian Sea. Roberto’s love of food, like his gentle smile, was passed down to him here – a gift as much of place as of family.
Seeing his mother prepare food – fresh from the sea and fresh from the land – eventually inspired Roberto and his brother Alessandro to open a restaurant on the water in Milazzo called Mood.
Jacqueline Nicosia, whose family are from Sicily and still have an apartment there, arrived in Milazzo after teaching in Japan. It was to be a layover, a place for her to decompress before heading back home to Canada.

Read All ReviewsWonderful restaurant with great food and a nice atmosphere. Everything was quick and staff are fantastic. It’s busy so plan ahead and make reservations. Everything we ordered was melt-in-your mouth delicious. I have several dietary restrictions and they were kind enough to suggest modifications and make me the gnocchi with another sauce and a few small modifications. Leveled access from the side walk but spacing inside the restaurant might be a issue for wheelchair user.
