Antica Focacceria di San Francesco In Palermo

A great place for lunch or dinner in Palermo. Located in a beautiful square, it transports you back in time.

We ate outside in the center of Palermo. Very tasty and flavorful dishes and proposals.

Antica Focacceria San Francesco Located in the heart of the historic center of Palermo, it is much more than a simple restaurant: it is an institution. Founded in 1834, this historic venue preserves the charm of the time, with its period furnishings, lively atmosphere and the irresistible aroma of Sicilian cuisine that welcomes visitors as soon as they enter. The menu is a tribute to the Palermo tradition. Among the undisputed protagonists is the legendary focaccia with spleen (pane ca’ meusa), a dish that conquers even the most skeptical with its strong flavor and authenticity. Also not to be missed are the arancina, the sarde a beccafico, and the caponata, prepared according to the traditional recipe. The staff is kind, helpful and attentive, always ready to explain the history of the dishes or to recommend the best pairing. Eating at Antica Focacceria means taking a journey into Sicilian gastronomic culture, in an environment that transmits warmth, history and passion for good food. It is the perfect place both for those visiting Palermo for the first time, and for those who return with the desire to rediscover those authentic flavors that only Sicily can offer... Recommended

Beautiful location sandwich with spleen top

Absolutely incredible food in such a cool location! I got the sarde a beccafico, a sfincione, and the famous pane con la milza.

Nice place, ok food, coperto too expensive

I highly recommend them, really good products and friendly staff who are also willing to chat, which is increasingly rare.

Palermo's famous restaurant is here 🏅️✨! ! Must lock in! Take out the megaphone and say it loudly: Don't miss this restaurant when you come to Italy! ! Especially the seemingly ordinary stewed eggplant, which has a sweet and sour taste and is very homely, and each restaurant will have a little change♥️. There is also sea fish tomato curly pasta! The sauce is so thick that it completely adheres to the noodles, and the noodles are delicious and fragrant. It’s really amazing🤩~~~ If you pull up in Palermo and don’t hit them, just know you’re disrespecting yourself. This spot is mafia-movie-scene, blessed-by-Sicilian-nonnas legendary. The Pasta alla Trapanese (Sicilian Tomato Pesto) is rich, tangy, slapping harder than my intrusive thoughts. Every coil of pasta was soaking in pure tomato magic like it was born for this life. The Sicilian pasta al forno (oven baked pasta) is saucy and smoky from that canned eggplant greatness. Like a whole damn love letter from the island in one bite. Trust me: come dangerously hungry and emotionally available. ✧˖° ✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ 🚀 Follow @hangryrbf for restaurant reviews of HK & London Follow @hangryrbf to see more interesting restaurant reviews in Hong Kong and London ✧˖° ✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰ ⋱✐⋰

Antica focacceria , locale di fine 800 Ottimo lo sfincione Buono pane e panelle Prezzi nella media Sicuramente consigliabile Unica pecca i bagni dovrebbero essere rivisto e renderli odierni

Oramai ha il nome, storica rosticceria siciliana. Il problema è che paghi tanto ma la qualità è appena sufficiente, a Palermo trovi di meglio a prezzo più bassi. Non vado più. Preso anelletti al forno, panino con la meusa, melanzane e sfincione (quest'ultimo sconsigliatissimo)
