I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Palermo

16/10/2025: A bar with two small but welcoming rooms. A standard trio of appetizers. Fast and friendly service. Four stars.

29/09/2025: Coffee and croissants for breakfast...excellent

30/09/2025: We really enjoyed the pizza. The service was friendly.

20/09/2025: Terrible. Raw pizza, a table for 14 people packed into a table for 8.

13/11/2025: Recommended place, very welcoming, excellent food with typical ingredients from the Modonie, kindness and friendliness.

08/10/2025: Years ago, when you were with friends, you'd look for a restaurant or trattoria with three steps leading down; it was a guarantee of quality food. A confirmed tradition, I recommend the caciocavallo in a bread crust, the tagliolini alla Natale, or the fresh pasta with pork ragù. As always, it's best to come back for confirmation. Once again, we were completely satisfied.

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).

15/10/2025: Fantastic sea food restaurant! The food and wine here were delicious - every dish was was thought-through without overthinking, original and experimental without overdoing it. Every ingredient made sense and the flavours were amazing! We were served delicious bread along with our dishes which we used to sweep up the last bit of sauce on our plates. Sitting at the "chef's table" we could watch the magic being done right in front of us. The only weak point was the service which seemed a bit overwhelmed - it wasn't always possible to get their attention. If we ever come to Palermo again, we will definitely come back!

14/10/2025: Suck the brain. A bold motto - as is the tasting menu. Unfortunately, bold does not mean good in this case. The menu started off with a small fried triangle that contained burning hot oil to burn your entire mouth. Taste was fish/prawn - alright. Off to a good start. Next up were raw prawns with an oyster mayonnaise that didn't taste like oyster at all. Actually quite good but more focus on the prawns would've been great. Next we had to "suck the brain". The question is: Why? Just putting two severed prawn heads on a plate and telling us to suck it is just low effort. There was no special taste, smart modification or even spice on it. Just cooked heads. This is their statement dish and it just doesn't make sense. The mackerel with tuna was good although the oregano sauce was tasteless and thin. Then it got worse. Pasta with cocoa sauce, a slimy piece of prawn (intestines?) and a few pieces of lobster. Terrible dish. Unbalanced, way too rich. It is not fun to eat and it tastes outright bad. I get the idea but the execution is just not right. The pasta itself was on point though. Next up squid. The 100% guarantee of sea-based food didn't matter anymore apparently. Chicken jus and sweetbread. This dish was pure fat and two of us couldn't finish it because it was so rich. Even the mushrooms tasted just like fat. Again, not enjoyable at all. The fish of the day was more mackerel and it came with sardella and raisins. The sauce tasted like the cocoa sauce from the earlier dish again and didn't harmonize with the fish at all. Bitter, unpleasant. Then we were served some blueberry(?) sorbet with olive oil and capers. We got no explanation what it is (even though we asked, they just left). The sorbet wasn't sweet and adding the capers made no sense. It was neither good nor enjoyable. The highlight of the menu was the dessert. Not only because you're finally done with tasting the menu but because it's actually good. Buttery, sweet, smooth with a nice crunch. The staff was unmotivated, unfriendly and most of all absent. We weren't served any drinks for well over an hour. They just put the plates on our table, read the dish name and left immediately without any explanation of what we were served and what the chef wants us to experience. At least we got more cutlery for every dish than we could ever use (two forks and a knife for the pasta?). The wine recommendation was a frizzante which was fine. Overall I recommend staying away from this restaurant and go find another one. Palermo has so much more to offer.

07/11/2025: I can only echo the other reviewers who didn't exactly sing the praises of this restaurant: The food (lobster) was okay. For my taste, the portion was far too large and the sauce too heavy, which overwhelmed the delicate flavors. The ambiance is enhanced by the sea view – if you can manage to snag a table on the terrace, that is. The location itself is rather spartan and uninviting, the interior dreadful. The prices are high for Sicilian standards, while the service is abysmal. We were served quickly, but that was about it. No eye contact, no smile – nothing. Of course, when the 10% service charge is already included in the bill... So naturally, we didn't add anything extra – with a smile, it might even have been 15%. Ever thought about that?

02/11/2025: A COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT I give one star because I can't give it less. This establishment, presenting itself as an indistinct mix of bar, restaurant, pizzeria, and sandwich shop, demonstrates that it doesn't sufficiently master any of these specialties. This lack of focus translates directly into a quality of service and food that to call appalling is an understatement. The food offered is of the lowest quality. The use of obviously pre-packaged and low-quality products for dishes like smoked salmon and swordfish is a clear indication of the establishment's philosophy. This isn't a restaurant, but a serving of supermarket products (and perhaps of inferior quality). The portions were ridiculous when compared to the final price. You pay like in a good establishment for a quantity and quality that don't even begin to justify it, making the experience a truly disproportionate and unjustified expense. The biggest issue, however, concerns the post-consumption experience: immediately after the meal, I felt a strong and unexpected stomach ache. This episode, linked to the questionable quality of the raw materials, suggests serious neglect in hygiene management or food preservation. Conclusion: The entire experience is a failure on all fronts: financially, gastronomically, and potentially in terms of food safety. I strongly advise against even considering going there. There are infinitely better alternatives.

03/09/2025: Excellent rotisserie chicken; I appreciated the vacuum-sealed packaging. The side dishes were good: a choice of potatoes and a small rotisserie. However, I'd say that overall, I wasn't entirely satisfied.

11/07/2025: I go and get the family pizza and it's delicious, from the toppings to the cooking.

27/10/2025: Nice Sicilian style with great atmosphere

05/08/2025: Delight 😋 Exquisite flavor 🙌👍👌🍕 and excellent location 🥰

15/11/2025: The best pizza in Palermo. Good, light, and different. Unfortunately, the interior is a bit chaotic, especially the bathroom: you can't see a nice, functional atmosphere ruined by a truly hideous bathroom. The one at the autogril seems like a villaogie in comparison.

08/11/2025: Just one word “THANK YOU” !!!!!

30/10/2025: Spent a week here. The service from the staff was fantastic, food was excellent and drinks excellent. In a very good location, close to many restaurants, capo market and ballaro market. Staff organised transport for us to travel to another local town also.

10/09/2025: Beautiful and welcoming The food is good and not cheap.

19/10/2025: The restaurant itself is really excellent with many varieties of fish, and they also serve large portions of food. The place is very beautiful with a blue marble floor and its location facing the sea creates a relaxing atmosphere and the staff are very polite.

19/10/2025: Super fast service, excellent food, and unbeatable value. €35 for 8 appetizers, 3 first courses, and 2 second courses. All portions are small, of course, but it's still very difficult to finish. I highly recommend it. Water and wine are included in the price, as is the sorbet! No coffee or dessert. The atmosphere is very busy, but not to be missed! Also great for small groups.

30/10/2025: Excellent coffee and a great selection of pastries! Superb value for money!

24/10/2025: It is a large beautiful facility and a large selection of dolce in the morning and sandwiches at lunchtime and gelato in summer. The deck has a lovely view. I have found the only negative is the staff are not very welcoming or friendly.

03/08/2025: Abbiamo trascorso una bella serata in questa trattoria. Proprietari molto simpatici che si sono intrattenuti con noi al tavolo. Buoni sia i primi che i secondi. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Ci tornerò se mi trovo a Palermo sicuramente.

03/07/2025: Excelente custo benefício! Atendimento ótimo e comida deliciosa com peixes frescos . Pedimos o menu turístico. Recomendo.
