    Lovely bright outdoor seating, tucked away from the chaos of Palermo on a side street. Delicious food, generous portions, and reasonable prices.

    The food was delicious. We had the sardine balls -which were very nice -and we both had pasta which was delicious and hot , service was okay nothing special, looked like the waiter was in a bit of a mood 🤷‍♀️ but I would definitely recommend going there for the food, it was gorgeous.

    Small place off the beaten path. Quiet. Good menu selection of seafood. Tables filled up later in the evening- 9:00 or so.

    The food was excellent the first time we visited here, so we had to go back. The food was very tasty, as it was the first time . And our waiter Nicola was superb. The family greeted us and made us feel very welcome, as they appreciated us returning to their restaurant. I would recommend to visit here

    We had a beautiful meal, in this family run restaurant. Our waiter Nicola was very attentive. We had the mixed seafood starter, sea bass, mixed fish & grilled vegetables. 1ltr of red wine and frozen limoncello to finish it all off. Or waiter also came to our table with a complimentary shot.

    Great atmosphere! Very tasty and authentic dishes. High hygiene level, which is not that easy to find.
