I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Palermo

02/10/2025: A very beautiful place on the sea, with ample and convenient parking with access from the main road. The food and wines are quality, though the desserts, I'd say, are less so. We returned after three days.

24/09/2025: A charming place to visit, especially in summer to enjoy the view. The first courses, the desserts, are good, but the selection is limited, and the semifreddo and almond parfait are very icy. The selection of bitters is very limited (only two).

10/05/2026: Highly discouraged due to the complete lack of seriousness and professionalism. I booked a table for two through TheFork on April 30th for Saturday, May 9th at 8:30 PM, and received a proper confirmation. Despite the reservation having been made a full 10 days in advance, the restaurant dared to cancel it, just four hours before dinner, with a notification at 4:07 PM. The excuse? A "private event." Such an event should be planned in advance; it's not decided on a Saturday afternoon at the expense of guests who already have a confirmed reservation. I find it unacceptable and profoundly unfair to give such short notice on a Saturday evening, making it impossible to find a valid alternative. If you're looking for a reliable place that honors its commitments to its customers, look elsewhere. This restaurant treats reservations as mere suggestions, to be cancelled at will.

03/05/2026: It doesn't look like much from the outside, but once inside, you'll have a great experience: good pizza, a beautiful place. The outside is also beautiful, with a well-kept garden perfect for spending a cool evening with friends or even family. The staff is attentive and friendly.

16/03/2026: Hospitality and familiarity guaranteed, highly recommended

08/03/2026: The pastry shop is top-notch, as is the deli. The establishment is superbly managed; Alessio and Morgana, along with their father, take care of the customers as well as every aspect of the café.

25/02/2026: Great neighbourhood bakery. Bread is memorable as are the pastries. Good value. Visited daily as it was near our self catering accommodation. Worthwhile detouring if visiting the cathedral.

19/02/2026: Great bakery. The bread is always fresh and made on-site. I highly recommend it.

03/02/2026: Stopped here for a mid morning snack on a rainy day. Coffee was wonderful and the marmalade filled pastry was SOOOO good. We sat outside in their covered smoking area which was so nice. I love the atmosphere here with all the plants, it really makes the whole square look cute. We were just walking around the old city center and came upon it--what a nice surprise!

28/01/2026: A wonderful cafe we ​​stumbled upon while casually strolling through Kalsa. All the pastries and snacks looked delicious, the service was friendly, the coffee was delicious, and the prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend checking it out!

14/05/2026: Not recommended, outdated and constantly noisy. More like a youth hostel, but far too expensive for that group.

31/08/2025: Nice and welcoming place...Eliana, a girl who works in this place...good...efficient...polite...excellent relationship with the customer...I think I will return for her kindness...Recommended...!!

27/08/2025: The sandwiches are good and well made, the absurd rule of prepayment upon ordering applies

23/07/2025: Très bonne expérience, petite terrasse très simple et efficace, nous avons pu manger à 14h30 et le restaurant ferme même à 16h en saison d’été. Le poulet pané et les pâtes carbonara super bonnes. Le service rapide efficace et souriant. Un vrai restaurant à l’italienne

21/07/2025: Sitio popular, apartado del centro pero cerca a la vez. Había bastante cola, pero iba rapido y la espera merece mucho la pena. De las mejores pastas que comí aquí en Sicilia, super al dente y acompañamientos y salsas deliciosas. Para repetir hasta probar toda la carta

01/05/2026: Everything was excellent, top-notch service. My only complaint was a very unpleasant detergent smell in the dining room, noticeable even from outside.

01/04/2026: Excellent food as always, a first-rate rotisserie, and very professional and prompt customer service. Furthermore, since they renovated the restaurant, the atmosphere has become more refined. Congratulations to the Dali family.

27/05/2026: Terrible experience as a guest at an event. Extremely long waits, terrible service. Far from a decent value.

14/02/2026: Excellent homemade cuisine. Friendly and impeccable service, perfect ingredients.

30/09/2025: I often travel to Palermo and stop for lunch at this restaurant with my husband. The chef is excellent, and the ingredients are top-quality. We also find the service courteous and the attention to cleanliness meticulous. Highly recommended!

05/09/2025: Well done! A small bar that offers a wide range of dishes, including express dishes. Friendly and polite. The place is beautiful and clean.

05/04/2026: The Norma pizza was quite enjoyable, but lacked the salty pecorino cheese. I later realized the bill was a little higher than it should have been.

09/11/2025: I stopped in for a quick croissant and coffee. I must say the atmosphere was pleasant, with a cozy indoor area for a quiet chat and excellent coffee products, along with a deli. Good coffee and friendly staff. I recommend it.

28/05/2026: I always avoided it because it seemed like one of the worst places in Caracas (😃😃), but I changed my mind. Excellent pieces of rotisserie that remind you of old Palermo, the Palermo you saw as a teenager, when everything was more beautiful and an arancini certainly didn't cost 8,000 lire! Kudos to them: €2 a piece. This means keeping the Palermo clientele. If it looked less "old" from the outside, it would have even more customers. Well done!

16/05/2026: Looking for delicious food at an affordable price? Then you'll find it here. At lunchtime, it gets difficult to find a seat. Sicilian classics, generous portions, and at a non-touristy price. The rule is clear: if it's full, it's worth it.

19/12/2025: We found the restaurant on the road, while wandering around the city. We ordered octopus and pasta. The octopus was supposed to be grilled, but it was fried and chewy 3/5. The Sicilian specialty (pasta) was not very good 2/5, carbonara 3/5 and the swordfish and bottarga 4/5. Not very satisfying.

08/12/2025: We ate outside at the entrance to the Ballarò market. The lady who served us was very kind. The paccheri with octopus and creamed potatoes and the spaghetti with clams were delicious. Very generous portions and good prices.
