Lao Wu Restaurant In Palermo

Overall, I was very satisfied, but I'd like to elaborate on a few things: I'll start by saying that the place wasn't very well-maintained, but despite that, the service was good. The food was very good; the ravioli were juicy and flavorful, and the WenZhou noodles were absolutely delicious, although I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who doesn't like garlic. Finally, the Chinese noodles were good but nothing special. The meat was good, but the broth was really bland in the pork version, while the veal ones were definitely better. A great experience and an excellent alternative to other places that are now overcrowded.

The food is amazing and the best Chinese food I have tried in Italy. The prices are more than fair. So if you want great food please come. But the ambiente and the service is maybe not the best for people who appreciate these kind. Than just take the food out, but you have to come here :)

While the food isn't exactly authentic, it's still okay! The owner is also very nice—very welcoming and attentive. Best of all, it's very affordable. For two people, I recommend ordering two bowls of soup and a bowl of rice or noodles; otherwise, you'll be overwhelmed. The owner also gave us popcorn for dessert and fortune cookies when we left. 🥠 Although the overall taste was a bit different from what I'd eat back home, experiencing the warmth of Chinese people in a foreign land made me feel like I was back home. The portions were also incredibly generous—you couldn't finish them all. 📍Beef Fried Rice: The rice was light and flavorful, with a fairly moist texture. 📍Tomato Egg Drop Soup: There wasn't a noticeable tomato flavor; I suggest simmering the tomatoes a little longer, but it was a pleasant drink. My boyfriend, who has gastroenteritis, enjoyed it very much. 📍Hot and Sour Soup: It wasn't very sour or spicy either. The flavor might vary slightly depending on the location, but it was generous and filling. 📍Wenzhou Mixed Noodles: It was a truly enormous bowl! If you are very hungry, you can order it, but because there is too much vinegar, it will be a bit greasy after eating.

Best food I had on Sicily so far. Amazing place!

Awesome food, spicy delicious veggies and taste that brings a smile on your face. The staff was very kind and patient. We managed to communicate, even though we couldn't speak any common language. Highly recommend 👌🏻

We tried the hot pot, which was very good. The dumplings and fried rice are highly recommended. The very friendly staff explained how to cook everything and even offered us watermelon. Highly recommended.

To say the food is delicious is an understatement. The staff are truly kind and patient, and they helped me a lot despite my carelessness with the hot pot. Every bite was an explosion of flavors, truly authentic, unpretentious, and high-quality cuisine. Coming back to try more is almost a must.

Didn't expect much coming here, but everything was amazing. Food was pretty good, served fast and reasonably priced. Mapo tofu was only so-so, but salt pepper shrimps were so so tasty. I was so happy to be able to have stir-fried loofah after so many years. They even offered fresh watermelon for free as dessert to us! The mantis shrimps were sadly not available, and they aren't on the menu anyways. Chinese locals seem to love this place! Another plus point is pest control. No mosquitoes here as a woman went around with her electric paddle and there were incense sticks everywhere. Love it! Languages spoken: Chinese and some Italian. Payment: cash and card. Hot pot available.

We ate like steamed pigs. special food ask them how to eat the dishes the tofu with egg if you don't eat it properly is not convincing but with instructions it's the bomb. Try what you don't know great restaurant

I finally got to try the hot pot, the only one in Palermo that does it, but the prices are way too exaggerated for a meat dish €15 and vegetables €8, but it's an experience to do at least once, as for the Chinese menu, speechless, dishes that you don't find anywhere else, really typical Chinese, super abundant, super seasoned and cost very little, another small flaw is that I had ordered spaghetti and ravioli, but maybe they didn't understand well and I had to wait 40 minutes, I got up and went there and they had forgotten it 😅
