I migliori ristoranti in Palermo

28/12/2025: It was superb. I keep thinking about my (fresh) spaghetti, and specifically the sauce: Nduja, bottarga, breadcrumbs, grilled tomatoes, parsley. Mopped up with scarpette of their home made bread that was delicious. Clean bowls all round. My children had wonderful artichoke hearts that they made disappear in seconds, without offering any to their father. My wife had marinaded prawns of again unknown delicacy. As soon as I return to London I want to try to make that spaghetti sauce. Had an excellent carricante-based Etna bianco 2024 from SRC. Carricante for Etna whites and Nerello Mascalese for Etna rosso are the best wines in Sicily. Dry, saline, savoury, exquisite. My main course was roast pork slices from Nebrodi pigs with charred broccoli that melted in the mouth. I would go back again tonight and have the spaghetti again. I should also add that the service was first rate: two charming knowledgeable Sicilian ladies who spoke English well. What a place!

22/11/2025: We had the tasting menu and matching wines and every course and every wine was superb. They stick to local wines and foods and the preparation, presentation and taste were exceptional. I can see why Michelin rated them and I think they deserve a star. It was a quiet night hr but we were treated with good attention and the pace was excellent: not too fast or rushed. The highlight was probably the dish from locally foraged mushrooms: probably the best mushrooms I’ve ever had and that includes porcini and girolles. The umami was fabulous. To be fair each dish also went so well together that you felt this was a well curated menu with the richness increasing as you progressed: starting with a lightly marinated raw scampi dish and ending with a marscapone and jelly with carob wafers.

28/01/2026: Excellent experience. A truly excellent restaurant, with an original and never boring menu. Dishes are carefully prepared, beautifully plated, and tastefully presented, with evidently high-quality ingredients. Service is attentive and professional, without being intrusive. An excellent option, highly recommended.

12/01/2026: Moved by the welcome and care for the customer. A very important concept is evident in this restaurant: dining is hospitality. The customer must be welcomed, guided, advised, and at the same time, must not be intrusive. You made this dinner an experience. A pleasant memory of relaxation and flavor. The attention to detail in the table setting, the variety of bread bites and artisanal breadsticks (excellent!), the care in cooking the meat, a menu that is both refined and simple. Compliments for the presentation of the dishes. Highly recommended. Excellent value. In the photo: anelletti with octopus ragù on a bed of squid ink and an almond crumble.

14/10/2025: Thanks to the dedicated staff, we enjoyed an exceptionally delicious late-night dinner at Via Roma. The appetizers were fantastic – sardines and caprese. The main courses were pizza with pistachio cheese and the perfectly prepared dish of the day – shrimp with dumplings in a citrus sauce! The prices were excellent. The service was excellent and friendly. We highly recommend it!

17/01/2026: Yesterday, January 16, 2026, two friends and I visited this restaurant for the first time, and as soon as you enter, you sense a family atmosphere, with dishes prepared in the culinary tradition of our grandparents. The food, condiments, desserts, and beverages are top-notch. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates good, traditional Sicilian cuisine.

We are traveling with 20 month old toddler, the stuff helped us to arrange the food for the kid. Pizzas are outstanding, second dishes very very tasty. The waiter Joseppe was absolutely the best, very friendly, polite, and helpful!

05/01/2026: I ate two meals during the four-day trip. The green plate of noodles was fettuccine with pesto, and it was delicious! It was very convenient to get there because I was staying nearby! If you eat dinner around 7 pm, you don't need to make a reservation.

04/01/2026: High-quality dishes (fresh and delicious seafood antipasti, pasta with pesto and shrimp). Excellent service. Friendly atmosphere. We'll be back.

20/12/2025: Delicious food, friendly and authentic staff, for one evening I remembered how to really eat in Sicily, far from the tourist traps, highly recommended

09/12/2025: The staff were attentive and very friendly; the food was excellent.

07/11/2025: Today, November 7, 2025, our third day in Palermo, visiting the monuments of this fantastic city, we come across a delicatessen at Via Vittorio Emanuele 389 whose aromas can be felt even in the street. Over the past few days, we've often eaten fish at various restaurants in Mondello and on excursions in the surrounding area (Bagheria, Borgo Porrini, Monreale, etc.), and many other Sicilian specialties. We enter this delicatessen, observing its characteristic tavern-like decor, and meet a gentleman named Amedeo Palermitano DOC, who graciously welcomes us and seats us at a shared table (it's raining outside). The atmosphere is promising, and we're seated right in front of the large counter displaying all the shop's merchandise. Behind the counter, a young Sicilian woman named Teresa practically does everything herself (she actually has the help of a young man who only takes care of the after-dinner service, and her father Anedeo, who, kindly, despite a few aches and pains, delivers things to the tables and attends to the guests' needs). We carefully watch Teresa prepare and order a platter of cured meats and cheeses, along with other small items for the two of us. Amedeo, at our request, recommends the wine, and we order two glasses: a red for me and a white for my wife, both from fine Sicilian wineries. The platter arrives and is truly marvelous: 6 or 7 types of cheese of varying consistencies, from ricotta with citrus sauce to provolone stuffed with olives and chili pepper, through other spicy and not-so-unique cheeses. The cheeses are accompanied by equally varied cured meats, such as mortadella and mortadella with herbs, capocollo, fillet, a unique cooked ham, salami, and prosciutto crudo. In the middle of the platter were some delicious marinated green and black olives and a small plate of eggplant with sauce and celery, honey mushrooms, and sweet and sour marinated pumpkin. My palate was overwhelmed by a variety of original flavors, and the glass of wine enhanced them. I won't deny that I even ate all the bread in the basket. Amedeo is a man with extensive life experience (an overager like me), and with him we talked about the South and our shared dream of seeing a respected, autonomous South, aware of its artistic and historical values, and of people who can foster a sense of belonging. I noticed two of Amedeo's loves: his daughter Teresa, to whom he gazes with paternal love, and Santa Rosalia, whom she jealously guards in a small niche within the restaurant. Teresa, on the other hand, is the hub of the delicatessen, the industrious part of the shop, combining the combinations and intertwining of cured meats and cheeses, as well as small gastronomic dishes of Sicilian delicacies. He's very knowledgeable, even in running this shop, and his passion for this profession shines through. Aside from the culinary delights you shouldn't miss if you're passing through (very close to the cathedral, the royal palace, and the church of San Giuseppe dei Teatini and Santa Caterina—practically at the center of these monumental masterpieces), I had the pleasure of meeting two people of great depth, both in their simplicity and thorough professionalism. For those interested in the god of money, we spent only 20 euros each. Greetings to Teresa and Amedeo. Long live Santa Rosalia.

25/10/2025: Great salume and great service!

03/02/2026: The food, although frozen, is quite good... the atmosphere is very warm, beautifully decorated for the holidays. What ruins the experience a bit in my opinion is the staff, who are dismissive of the kids, not providing them with the same level of service as they provide adults.

29/01/2026: Cozy place to eat, lots of flavor and well-being

05/01/2026: The restaurant of this place is very beautifully located on the old ruins of a castle. The entrance to the restaurant truly resembles an entrance of a Templar's hiding place. The host (owner) was really friendly who spoke with us on his travel experience on my homeland in Malta and his beautiful Asian wife. The menu is varied with a combination of truly Italian pasta combined with Asian food (prepared by his wife). We had three pasta dishes to share between two people. They were amazing. As regards sweets we were suggested some traditional ones from the region. All in all an amazing evening with delicious food. Recommended.

03/01/2026: Excellent food. Local produce. Impeccable hospitality and service. If you find yourself in the Madonie Mountains, specifically in Polizzi Generosa, I recommend enjoying the succulent house dishes paired with excellent wine.

25/12/2025: Excellent in food, service, cleanliness, price, hospitality, and portion size...I recommend it... EXCELLENT

18/12/2025: My partner and I have visited the restaurant several times, and each time has been a pleasant surprise. Chef Gaetano Varco constantly creates new dishes based on his culinary imagination, and he even shared a sampling with us. On the first occasion, he personally selected our menu based on our tastes, and we were delighted. Nowadays, when we think of a restaurant that also guarantees quality with the freshest fish, we can't help but choose it.

11/01/2026: The perfect place for a quick aperitif or after-dinner drink! Seats are available after a short wait.

03/01/2026: A service as cold as the number of ice cubes in the glass.
