The food and the good service

Great food, location and service. Perfect!

What kind of place forces people to use their phones to order food? Very unimpressive. Insulting especially for people with eye problems.

The food was delicious. It also had a different menu from other meals around the city. Every dish was good. It was a very pretty setting and the service was outstanding. Not only was he concerned about our enjoyment of the dishes, he was concerned about our comfort & enjoyment of the evening. Another great feature was a great wine list. Go & enjoy!

Looked attractive and inviting from outside however, it lacked atmosphere / ambiance. No background music and a little too brightly light. Service was ok but the food was very disappointing. We ordered the sharing starters of tempura cod - batter was soggy, and ‘pancakes’ - they weren’t pancakes and were very stodgy. Mains - Tuna was supposed to have a crust, but again wasn’t crisp / crunchy Average bowl of pasta. Has potential to be good as staff were friendly but didn’t come across as very professional - casually dressed in different clothes - would benefit from looking smarter / have a uniform? We were disappointed as had high expectations. Heard they haven’t been open long so perhaps they are still learning as they go. Wish them well. We have eaten in lots of different Italian cities at all levels- from cafes to Michelin star restaurants and this was by far the worst meal we have had - shame.

Perfect service and high-class food. Several local wines available by glass, several beers on tap. Waiters’ good English helps with your choice of food and wine. Fish, meat and vegetarian options available. We each had a primo and secondo (one perfectly cooked tuna with almond crust, dried mandarins on white and black cabbage and the other seared broccoli on orange and pecorino sauce, extremely delicious bread comes as part of the coperto) and shared a desert. Amaro digestif comes on the house. Best restaurant in our 2 week trip of Sicily. Definitely go there! Reservation recommended.

The best pasta we’ve had in Sicily so far. Great wine selection. We were one of the first tables around 8pm but it was packed by 9:30, including the bar and wine room. Friendly and knowledgeable staff

The team excelled and nailed it. Great service, very attentive staff (asked whether the guests would like to start with a bottle of water, cleaned the plates up immediately, made sure guests would never run out of forks or knives, etc.), nice Interieur and atmosphere. They had us with the amuse bouche, the exposition of every dish was delicate and the taste distinguishably great. We can highly recommend this spot!

We found the restaurant to be quaint and cozy. Service was good and food was good. Lasagna with pumpkin was very interesting. Owner was very kind. It was pouring rain he walked us to our taxi.

Impressed by all the excellent ratings. Service was great and attentive. Great selection of Sicilian wines. Food was fresh/homemade (homemade pasta) and very well presented. The taste didn’t live up to the presentation unfortunately. Dessert was definitely the highlight. You must try the pistachio cake.

Food and relaxed atmosphere with locals.

It was such a cozy restaurant with authentic service and delicious food with good prices. Especially the pistacchio lava cake is a must try! A hidden treasure, far away from the tourist traps. We would definitely come back!

Great food, unexpected (in a good way) taste of swordfish and octopus. Pistachio dessert - must try! Wide selection of wines. Great price/quality balance.

Great food with nice music and friendly people
9.0
The waiting staff were very friendly and attentive and made some good recommendations for food and wine pairings. The amuse-bouche at the start of the meal was an unexpected surprise and very tasty. It has a lovely peaceful courtyard at the front, just 2 minutes from the bustling via Emanuelle.

Attentive staff, great food and atmosphere

We had an amazing time! The service was just great, very thoughtful. It was a quiet Monday night but they still let us stay until late hours to not rush us. The food was yummy, great combination of flavours and the suggested wine was super special. All in all a great evening in Palermo!
