sicily's

restaurant impossible?. i really want thisrestaurantto succeed, and based on some pictures in the waiting area someone is connected to both the police in mckinney as well as nyc, so wonderful for their commitment to serve which far outweighs a simple eating experience! unfortunately, the food could have been better last night (which i realize is a 1st-world-problem), and is worth noting. the calamari as our appetizer looked closer to cauliflower and had no evidence of being fried. the bread was the highlight and the four massive pieces they brought dwarfed the plate it was served. almost burned my hand reaching under the bread to find the tiny packets of butter stuffed under the bread and already melted. each of our four entrees was either tasteless (basil should be cut and crisp and not wilty) or had way too much sauce and drowned the overcooked pasta.restaurantfor the most part had an impressive crowd and hope our opinions may simply help the future as we will return since we moved to the area. learned it is byob.restaurantimpossible could make this a dynamite attraction to freshen up the waiting area, the inside and maybe help with basics on the menu.

om, nom, and the kids were in the mood for some pizza, and we had not been to sicily’s for some time, so it was a sunday night at sicily’s!

om: the place was pretty empty, but i guess that is kind of expected on a sunday night. the waitress was either confused, new, or was more concerned with talking to her co-workers. she forgot our menu’s, then forgot our silverware, and didn’t bring out plates for our appetizer…usually their service is good but this was disappointing. we ordered some fried ravioli for the appetizer, and they were good, but i don’t think that the olive garden should serve a far superior appetizer to a local favorite like sicily’s. the sicily’s version lacked size and presentation, and could have used more batter. the pizza was very good though. it’s a great combination of cheese and sauce, and i love their crust. it’s also a heck of a value. for a straight cheese pizza, it’s one of the best in town. watch for coupons in their emails and the mckinney publications!

nom: we were one of two groups of customers in therestaurantsunday night. i’ve always like this place the service has always been good as well as the food and the price! ok, so our waitress was less than attentive. we sat down to no silverware and so when our appetizer came we had nothing to eat it with, then when the pizza came we had nothing to eat it on! we started with the fried ravioli and the order only fed 6 people…wait we were a party of 5…oh yeah…we didn’t have any silver ware so jon dropped his trying to cool it off and so i gave him mine. so no ravioli for me but it looked good and everyone seemed to like them! then comes the pizza…very very good pizza! this is a place where i could make a meal of the crust. the kids demolished the cheese pizza, it’s really that good. jon had a bowl of spaghetti with butter sauce as well and he inhaled that so i think it had to be good. ok for 5 of us we got out of there for a little over $50. but we fed 5 people, still watch for coupons because that was the cost with a coupon!

excellent family owned italian.. delicious. we all loved our dinner. didn't love the service. i don't think it was arestaurantissue, but just our server was inattentive and just nit cut out to be a server. either way, food was inexpensive and good italian. byob. definitely worth a try!

my absolute favoriterestaurant- not just out of mckinney restaurants, but out of any place! i've lived in upstate ny & ohio and nothing beats sicilys. glad to be back in tx so i can go at any time! great for lunch, dinner, dine in or carry out. family favorite for a great price. byob & get the pink sauce!

this is a great familyrestaurantthat your kids will absolutely love. their pizza is unbelievable and the sicilian pizza is also great. i always get the chicken picata, which you can order to be lowfat or without the chicken. their prices are affordable, unlike some other italian resaurants in mckinney. i have lived here, in mckinney for my whole life, and , without a doubt, i would have to say that sicily's is the bestrestaurantin town.

home style sicily. stopped at sicily's on my way to tyler, texas. it was a good experience. the food was delicious. it is not an upscalerestaurantbut they can provide it if you pay for it. i felt like i was in a country stylerestaurantwith down home freindly service. the prices are affordable. i ordered spaghetti and requested to top it off with meatballs, ravioli, and sausage.

whoever says sicilys is not a goodrestaurantprobably has no life and lives with their mom in a cardboard box in an alleyway. sicilys is the bestrestaurantout there!

thisrestaurantis the best in mckinney. their food is cheap and very good. they have great service, and you don't have to wait long for them to bring the food to you. also, they let you bring your own wine, so lots of people bring their own wine to dinner. bottom line is: it's a superb restaurant. try it!
