There were 3 of us. All ordered the veal. Two were fantastic and one was tough but they did replace it. Service was great. Place is very small so make a reservation

Good food in great ambience. Service could have been better as the waiter forgot us as the other three tables filled one by one. Sadly we don’t know if the desserts would’ve been as good as the starters and mains, because the waiter was not answering to our calls.

The food was amazing. Traditional Sicilian in an elevated way. The place is really charming, the cocktails were amazing. A great place to eat in Palermo

We did not like that it was advertised as a tapas restaurant but there were very few items for sharing. We did enjoy the food tho.

Occhiovivo! Bistrot

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the food, and we’re sorry if the concept felt unclear. Our menu is inspired by sharing-style dining, but it is not a traditional tapas format. We truly appreciate your observation and hope to welcome you again for a more complete experience.

Pretentious but inefficient waiters. Brought cold pasta which had to be sent back to be heated. Waiter failed to ask lady if she wanted a drink! Requested bill several times and had to wait a long time . Disappointing

We enjoyed the assorted appetizers while seated in the plaza. The food was very fresh, innovative and delicious. The wine selections are wonderful. Nicest meal we had in Palermo.

Tapas were good, but croquetas cold. Service was efficient. Position in a beautiful square unbeatable. They didn't give us napkins/servietas, which was a bit strange. Overall, a nice experience, but there's a lot of good competition in Palermo.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the location and found the service efficient, but we are sorry for the details that did not meet expectations, especially the croquetas and the missing napkins. This is certainly not the level of care we aim to provide. We truly appreciate your observations and will address them with our team. We hope to welcome you again and offer you a more complete experience.

Food was good Serice erratic Cocktails - aperol and negroni spagliato were not good very watery we would have had better in a basic local bar

We had the cheese and meat Extras. Also the 3 variations of raw seafood, and finally the Veal Rigatoni and Tagliolini with summer black truffle pastas. Everything was paced correctly and the pastas were exceptional.
