Very authentic atmosphere. Typical and  traditional Sicilian food. Service was excellent, quick and very welcoming. This is a family-owned business and it is obvious you are far from the main tourist traps of the Cathedral area.

Sushi&#39;s fresh, no question. The variety of rolls and sashimi is solid. Fish quality is always on point. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

The fried food is classic Palermo style&mdash;dry, crispy, and full of flavor. The spleen sandwiches are particularly succulent.

The space has a warm, buzzing energy that just feels right. I ended up lingering over my pasta for much longer than planned.

Giuseppe and his team were so welcoming, it felt like visiting family friends. They remembered our wine preference from last time and kept checking in without being overbearing. A genuinely nice touch that made the evening.

Came with a group of friends and the staff were so welcoming! They didn&#39;t rush us at all, even when we were chatting for ages after finishing our pizzas. It&#39;s the kind of place where you can really relax and catch up.

The grilled squid was the star. Perfectly tender, with a smoky char that didn&#39;t overpower the fresh seafood flavor. The accompanying lemon wedge was essential. The bolognese was fine, but the squid is what I&#39;ll come back for.

Fast service for being so busy.  Good menu with lots of options. Pizza is good and the eggplant parmigiana. Good location on a busy street.

The fried calamari was really good, crispy and not greasy. But the portion was a bit small for the price, especially as a starter. I was still a little hungry after. The Nero d&#39;Avola was nice though.

Working nearby, I popped in for a quick lunch. The pasta was fresh and tasty. Staff was courteous. What really stood out was their short but well-chosen wine list&mdash;found a lovely local white that paired beautifully with my seafood dish. A solid spot for a workday bite.

Fabulous place with delicious cutting boards and a variety of space desserts. The freshness of the products is immediately noticeable.

Pricier than other spots nearby, but you can taste the quality. Fresh ingredients, well-prepared. Worth the extra few bucks for a solid lunch.

Stopped in for a quick bite in the historic center. The panelle sandwich was the highlight for me&mdash;the chickpea fritters were so fresh and light, not greasy at all. A nice, simple option. The arancina was good too, but the sandwich really stood out.

Been coming here for years, and their apericena is the reason. It&#39;s always generous, always hits the spot. Just a solid, reliable choice for a laid-back evening.

Tried the tasting menu. Each course was a surprise. That squid ink risotto was something else. A bit pricey but worth it for the quality.

I stopped by for a quick bite and got a slice of their focaccia. The dough was so fresh and airy, you could really taste the quality olive oil. Perfect for a light, healthy snack on the go.

Crab tagliatelle was the highlight. We sat outside and they had heaters going, which was nice. But honestly, for the portion size, the price felt a bit steep.

Had our last Palermo dinner here. The pasta was unreal, seriously. The vibe was so chill, perfect for a long chat with friends. Staff were super nice. Easy to book online.
