1. Locanda Del Gusto

€33Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserThe food was fantastic - both inventive and totally delicious and the service was impeccable. Friendly , efficient and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend eating here.

2. Casa del Brodo dal Dottore

€41Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserOur server/host/owner was delightful and entertaining. The restaurant is quiet enough to have a conversation even when many tables are full. He introduced to a lovely local gin.

3. Gagini Social Restaurant

€48Reservation AvailableWestern-style

摆渡修行Gagini Social Restaurant, with a simple menu, a more casual dining atmosphere and relatively cheap prices, is a restaurant that focuses on modern seafood cuisine combined with natural wine. - aja mola plateau: seafood raw platter. The red shrimps are sweet, but I can't get used to the larger mazzancolle shrimps, which are too big and have a strong raw shrimp taste. In the end, I swallowed them with wine. The oysters come from northern France, and they are not very juicy, but they have a lot of salty and sweet taste. If you like raw seafood, you can order a special plateau, which also has lobsters and shellfish, which are more affordable. - fried mussels and sea asparagus: fried mussels, crispy batter wrapped with tender mussels, are very good side dishes. It was my first time to eat sea scorpion, and the fried fragrance matched the salty and fresh taste of sea scorpion. - Pasta of the day: It happened that there were fresh porcini that day, and the chef said that he could cook porcini and shrimp pasta. Take a bite of the rolled pasta, and your mouth is filled with the rich aroma of porcini and the freshness of shrimp meat. It is delicious. The slightly thicker long pasta is used, which has a more chewy texture. - aja mola fish soup: The rich tomato-flavored soup is soaked with various seafood, whether it is fish pieces, shrimp meat, mussels or clams, they are all tender. It is sour, sweet and fresh, and very tasty. However, for me, after drinking too much soup, I still feel that it is a little salty, but Hu Zi thinks it is just right. It depends on the individual's heavy taste. - gela di anguria: Watermelon jelly with basil leaves and white chocolate sauce is a refreshing dessert that is not sweet. - polpo al carbone: Well, I feel that there is still room in my stomach, so I ordered another grilled octopus. The overall seasoning is ok, but some of the octopus meat is too chewy, and my cheeks are tired from eating it. It is paired with a bottle of natural wine, which is not expensive at 18 euros per bottle. The price is 40-50 Euros per person excluding drinks.

4. Pizzeria Ai Cassari

TheForkUserThe food was high quality and sophisticated (for the price). The drink menu is basically non-existent, so don't expect a specialty cocktail, which I think is a missed opportunity. I recommend the pasta farfalla al salmone!

5. CiCala

TheForkUserThis is a place that has no walk by tourist traffic. This is a place that gives you food that locals eat. You only hear Italian voices.Palermo at its best.

6. Lato B

€9Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserGreat food! Am amazing chef who took the time to come chat to us about various menu options for my wife's seafood allergy.

7. Cibus Sicilian Food Factory

€25Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserVery good lunch in Sicilian style. Nice price. Very tastefull and typical dishes. We were glad that we found this restaurant via the Fork. Thanks

8. Osteria dei Vespri

€86Reservation AvailableInnovative CuisineView

TheForkUserWe were seated right away and loved the coziness of the restaurant. The staff was extremely attentive and the food was amazing.

9. DOC Cucina & Griglia

€12Reservation AvailableBarbeque

TheForkUserThe restaurant is a little off the beaten track but worth making the effort for - you would be advised to book ahead as it was fully booked when we visited.For our starters two of us ordered the Angus meatballs (they were lovely and you get a large portion - enough to share) and two of us ordered the melted provolone cheese (again a lovely dish).It was meat all round for our main courses with two of us ordering the filet steak and two the ribeye - the steaks were very good. The restaurant is owned and run by a husband and wife combination and the service from them and all the team was very good - great explanation of the dishes and friendly service.We enjoyed a bottle of Etna Rosso Sensi from Cantine Patria, made exclusively from the nerello mascalese grape, with our dinner and it was really nice.A lovely meal with great service - we would be recommend dining there to anyone.

10. Al Carlotta Giro Pasta

€13Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserlocation a bit out of the city centre, easy by car. food was nice and service good. a bit noisy when we went because of a large family with kids bit on the whole value for money with 50 % discount

11. Il Bavaglino

€54Reservation AvailableWestern-styleView

摆渡修行The 1-star Michelin restaurants in Palermo are all in the seaside villages/towns around the city. Before going to Palermo this time, we went to the small town of Terrasini. The restaurant was actually recommended by the Airbnb host because we mentioned that we had made a reservation for another one and the host said we could try this one. Compared with the other 3 1-star Michelin restaurants during the island tour, the two of us were a little disappointed with this one. I guess in the long food review push later, my friends may see some complaints, and they will not be put in the tag of friends' food recommendations.

12. Le Terrazze di Magaggiari

€21Reservation AvailableSeafood

TheForkUserBeen here multiple times... The pasta was, amazingly delicious...... We tasted the fettuccine con l'astice, the busiate with pesce spada and remaining super satisfied...... This place we highly recommend!!!!!

13. Il pipino rosso

€24Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserwe ordered a pasta each at first, a norma and a fish pasta, and were alreeady quite full, then came the pork shank that we shared and that how glad we were to have made such a good choice

14. BALATA Sicilian Experience

€25Western-style

TheForkUserThis was our last meal in Palermo and probably the best. I had the rolled , stuffed swordfish which was very good as was my wife's prawn pasta dish. Great service. would come here again.

15. Moltivolti

€6Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserAs Italy - and Sicily as part of it - is growing multicultural, it's beautiful to have such restaurants representing the moltitude of food cultures in our country. A splendid mix between typical Sicilian recipes and dishes from around the world.

16. A'Cuncuma Restaurant

€39Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserThe combination of exquisite food, brilliantly and imaginatively matched wines and warm, efficient and knowledgeable service made this an evening to remember and, at €300 for 8 courses, 5 wine pairings and plenty of water, it was excellent value we felt. Surely due a Michelin star? Highly recommend to any visitor to Palermo who loves food - I will certainly return on any future trip to the city!

17. A'nica Ristorante & Pizza Gourmet

€37Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserWe had there last dinner in Palermo and it was really tasty. There were children with us, so they could find also simple dishes. Great cacio e Pepe!

18. Trattoria Del Massimo

€20Reservation AvailableSeafood

TheForkUserThe location, service, and food is top notch. They truly go out of their way to please you. We ordered the steak, the millefoglie of eggplant and grilled vegetable's. All were beautifully presented and delicious. We had a glass of Nero d’avola and Grillo which complemented both entree’s. We had a martini and their house special spritz which were made very well and attractive to boot! The interior of the restaurant is an interesting space with a soft green palate. I would have preferred having dinner outside, in the giardino, but they don't serve dinner outside; just cocktails. I heartily recommend and will eat here again when in Palermo

19. Trattoria Al Cancelletto D' Aragona

€27Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserLovely restaurant! Wonderful fresh food and very attentive service. Had a terrific sauce for the gnocchi I had and also a great caponata and caprese. We are returning this week!

20. L'Ottava Nota

€45Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserWe had the 7 course tasting menu. Several items, like the foie gras paired with truffle ice cream, were great. All were inventive and exciting to try.
