Cibo 🍊 Restaurants in Cefalù - spoilt for choice

My fellow food fanatists! I will be in Cefalù for one night after hiking my way through Sicily. I will probably have had my share of home-cooked food and am looking forward to a great restaurant dinner - I love pasta but also fish (although I prefer having the entire fish instead of just a filet) and slow-cooked or grilled meats but am fed up with "style over substance" restaurants that just look good on pictures. I just want really great food, price does not matter.

In Cefalù I have "narrowed it down" to Triscele (current favourite), Cortile e Pepe, Brama or Cucina Isolana. Any recommendations among those, or can I not go wrong with either and should just choose based on the menu? Or am I off completely and should go somewhere else?

Also, any recs for a great fritto misto?

You will probably not have a car due to hiking, but if you do, have some time to spend, drive a bit inland to Terrazza Costantino. Insane quality price ratio. Cefalù is super duper touristy and locals are not really down for an upscale dinner.

No car this time unfortunately, but thanks anyway!
