Orto Dining
Book the ExperienceA generous table made for sharing, the authentic flavors of Sicily, and a canopy of stars overhead. And before you, the magnificent Temple of Concordia takes center stage, the undisputed protagonist of the evening. An evening to remember in Villa Athena’s garden: Orto Dining.
Experience
A truly Sicilian moment
Orto Dining is more than a dinner; it is an authentic celebration of Sicilian life, bringing the flavors, traditions, and spirit of the island to the table. A genuine moment rooted in tradition, filled with the warmth, generosity, and sense of togetherness that define Sicilian family life. The Sicily we love is the pleasure of sharing a table and a conversation, where strangers quickly become part of the moment. It’s a glass of fine wine raised in a toast to new encounters. It is the fragrant freshness of wild herbs, mingling with the rich, comforting aromas of meat slowly cooked over time.
Menù
Treasures from our land
The Orto Dining menu celebrates the bounty of Sicily, from arancini, panelle, and eggplant caponata to succulent grilled meats seasoned with hand-picked garden herbs and served with thoughtfully prepared accompaniments. To finish, a crisp hazelnut and pistachio nougat, a timeless Sicilian classic and a sweet finale worthy of the evening. And with the Temple of Concordia illuminated by moonlight, the evening needs nothing more.
