Empire
About
Empire in Sicily can be found on Via Giacomo Leopardi, 17, 95127 Catania CT, placing it in the eastern city of Catania rather than the island's western or southern resorts. The venue operates as a restaurant, and diners who have eaten here have given it 4.8 out of 5 across 36 reviews. It is known for its Catania setting, where the surrounding streets put it within reach of the city's daily life. First-time visitors should expect a small, well-regarded spot rather than a large dining room, judging by the review count. Catania itself is one of the island's main urban centres, with Taormina, Syracuse and Cefalù among the nearby places that draw travellers along this coast. Sicily lies in Italy's island group, and Greek, Carthaginian, Roman and Arab traces survive across the island, from its temples to its older quarters. Capers, olives, aubergines and citrus grow on the warmer islands, and Pantelleria capers are sold widely. The peak season runs from June to September, when ferries fill and coastal hotels book out.
