Ciwara Ristorante Africano In Palermo

Food. & a service : Excellent, 10/10 Value for money: Average, 6/10, €25 for one person is definitely on the pricey side for a standard African dish which I have had for less than 10€ in other restaurants. Nice music.

Baobab ice cream with African hibiscus and a... Wonderful!

Wonderful vibe, people and food

The music is good, but the quality of the equipment could be better. The food is good, and the service is pleasant. I recommend it for an alternative evening.

Ciwara is a special, unique place. More than a restaurant/bar/club, it's a place for cultural exchange and sharing, a place that brings people together. It's a community; day after day, you often see the same smiling faces. Whether you're Senegalese, Italian, a traveler passing through, Arab, Black, or white, you'll be welcomed the same way: with open arms, with the warmth and generosity that are so characteristic of Africa. And you'll feel right at home. My travel friends and I came almost every night during our stay in Palermo. Live music, DJ sets, dancing, or simply for the delicious food (a passion for fufu, of course). One evening, we witnessed a clash. Faced with an aggressive group making racist remarks, the Ciwara team didn't give in to violence and responded to the anger with calm, strength, and dignity. Shocked and disgusted, it took my friends and me a while to enjoy ourselves again. Around us, everyone quickly returned to the party, dancing together again to Latin, urban, or Afrobeat music, smiling and full of joy. That's what I call Resilience, true resilience. There's no room for hate here; Ciwara is about peace, the love of music and dance, the pleasure of being together, and joy. How beautiful. Thank you for this magnificent lesson you gave us. Thank you to Doudou, Lass, and the whole team for their positive energy and warm welcome: you opened our hearts, and we'll be back!!! ♥️🙏

God bless this place for being open late. The service is amazing and I’m so happy we came :)

Amazing food, I recommend the fufu! Very good service :)

Left Palermo three months ago, and I'm still thinking about Ciwara. Amazing people, food, drink, and music. Couldn't ask for more and can't wait to be back there again.

Delicious food cooked on the spot. Good quality price ratio.Warming ambinance and live music, one of the best restaurant experience in my stay around Sardaigne and Sicilia

After a dinner nearby we heard drums, we decided to find a source and it was best idea ever. We found i belive friend and family run established. We meant to stay for a dring but the music, dance and atmosphere made us stay till very late. I absolutely adore the people running this place, you can feel the positive vibe and the love. Everyone is welcomed with a big smile. That night is one of highlights of our stay in the city
