La Staffa In Palermo

On our road trip through Sicily we spent a day in Palermo and wanted an authentic dinner spot in the evening. We found La Staffa and it was honestly perfekt. We came in a great season with good weather, warm but not too hot like peak summer, and the city wasnt overloaded with tourists (even if we are tourists too). La Staffa feels like a real family restaurant. The food was super tasty and the team was very friendly. They chatted with us a bit but also gave us space to enjoy our dinner, which I really liked. The chef has worked abroad before and now is back home, you can feel the passion. And the limoncello... wow, really a dream. I would come back for sure.

We arrived at our hotel quite late at night and were worried we wouldn’t find anywhere to eat. Luckily, this lovely restaurant nearby stayed open for us until almost 1 a.m. 🌙 and even prepared special pizzas for takeaway 🍕✨ We were so touched by their kindness and willingness to accommodate us so late in the evening. The staff were incredibly friendly, patient, and genuinely welcoming 💛 Their positive energy and warmth immediately made us feel comfortable and cared for. The pizzas were absolutely incredible — truly some of the best we’ve ever had 🤩👌 We were so impressed that we later came back to dine at the restaurant, and once again everything was perfect. The food, the atmosphere, and especially the service were outstanding 🌟 No one has ever taken such good care of us before. They truly made our trip to Sicily unforgettable 🇮🇹❤️ We are so grateful for their warmth and hospitality — it was one of the best restaurant experiences we’ve ever had. Thank you so much for making our trip so special! 🙏✨

For a few weeks now, it's become a regular choice for my pizza at home. There's a real professional in front of the oven, and it's a pleasure to talk to him. My compliments also go to the rest of the staff and management, because it's only right to do so for their kindness.

Excellent food quality. Well-packaged, tasty, and flavorful first courses. Excellent pizzas, well-topped and of great quality. The staff and owners are always present and attentive to the needs of their customers. The owner's kindness in offering coffee or liqueur to guests is greatly appreciated.

Nice place and very good pizza, wide selection of dishes and kind and helpful staff

Excellent restaurant with refined and revisited dishes of traditional cuisine with successful contamination.

We stumbled upon this place somewhat by chance: it was a pleasant surprise! Clean place, fresh local seafood, friendly and helpful staff, excellent value. A heartfelt thank you to the owner, who drove us directly to Mondello on a day with poor public transportation due to the marathon.

Great experience. Great food and service.

Pizza Etna was one of my top 3 pizzas ever! Professional and friendly team top notch too!

Beautiful place, delicious food (especially the pizza), and really friendly staff. I'll be back.
