Badalamenti Cucina e Bottega In Palermo

A fantastic experience. The dishes are beautifully prepared, with authentic flavors and high-quality ingredients. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. Furthermore, the wine list is excellent and very well selected, perfect for pairing with the food. A place you'll want to return to, whether for a relaxed lunch or a special dinner.

A wonderful experience! I moved to France a couple of years ago, and my husband, who is French, chose this restaurant last night for a lovely dinner. We discovered it was recently included in the Michelin Guide, and after tasting their dishes, we can say this recognition is well-deserved, as the ingredients used are refined and high-quality: Italian cuisine with some French influences. Even when it came to choosing wines (and I can say I'm quite tricky about this), they recommended wines that perfectly matched our tastes. Despite being in the Michelin Guide, the atmosphere is not formal; on the contrary, the owners, as well as the staff, are very friendly and take the time to chat, joke, and recommend. We had a great time and will gladly return ☺️

If you're looking for a gastronomic experience that combines tradition and creativity, "Badalamenti Cucina e Bottega" is the ideal place. This restaurant is a true gem that knows how to seduce the most discerning palates. An absolute must-try is the milk and truffle croquettes, an appetizer that's pure magic! The first and second courses are exceptional. I also had the pleasure of participating in a wine tasting class they organized, and I can say it was a fantastic experience! The sommelier is extremely knowledgeable and manages to convey all her passion. It was the perfect way to enrich my knowledge and learn to appreciate different types of wine. I highly recommend it!

I discovered this restaurant thanks to Federica's ABC of Wine course (which I highly recommend to anyone who wants to approach the world of wine in a thoughtful yet light-hearted way, enjoying a convivial and fun hour). I've fallen in love with it ever since: not only for the wine selection, but also for the splendid cuisine. Carefully crafted dishes, excellent ingredients, and incredible flavors are absolutely worth trying. The staff is meticulous, friendly, and very attentive to detail. One of those places that's truly worth the evening and where you'll happily return time and time again.

A refined and elegant restaurant where excellent dishes are always well-served and meticulously prepared. It's always a pleasure to return to experience the magical atmosphere and enjoy the excellent food and wines.

Just steps from Mondello beach, you'll find an intimate place where you can eat and enjoy the food, which is prepared beautifully here. You'll find fresh shrimp here. And everyone, from the owners to the waiters, is welcoming. Thank you for the wonderful time shared.
