Historical place. Used to be visited by Mafia boss Lucky Lucciano. Large selection of real Palermitan starters. For brave ones: try Panino con la milza (veal spleen boiled in lard served on a roll)

Ayşegül Sider

a wonderful and authentic Sicilian restaurant with tasty fish and wine .try mixed fish and wine 'etna rosa' which is good.We booked a table but if you arrive before sunset you can find a suitable table

Genuine Palermitan delicacies. Order the schiticchi, a street food sampler with caponata , involtini di melanzane, sardi a' beccaficu, and arancinette. I loved the richly savory margherita all'anciova.

Ruxi B

Good, authentic sicilian food . You should try the caponata (an eggplant stew-like dish), pane con milze (spleen sandwich ) and cannoli (the delicious sicilian ricotta desert )

Marilena Barbera

The right place to eat typical Palermitan street food , a wide range of authentic Sicilian cuisine in a beautiful historical Art Nouveau palace . Try Dietro le Case by the glass with "pani ca meusa".

Sander van Oosterhout

Go for the milza and arancini ???????? tasty Sicilian food that you have to try.

Very beautiful old building , super impressive location. Try tris di focaccine to understand what it's all about) tasty local red wine !

Caponata and crocche for the vegetarians , pane con milze for the meat lovers and cannoli for everyone!

This place is really a must-do in Palermo! The food is just perfect and the place looks really great! Try the arancine!

Lowie Deseyne

Cosy atmosphere and calm area . The street food is good (especially the rice balls ) but the focaccia was a disappointment. But a recommendation for a quick and pretty cheap lunch !

Valentina Torre

A must for tastings of typical Sicilian cuisine . Maximum attention to anti-covid measures????

Kirill Zzz

Horrible service. Order 3 dishes for 3 people, 20 minutes later brought 2 and told 20 minutes later that 3 meals there . No apology, no dishes on the house. Nothing! spoiled the evening ...

If you love undercooked pasta , long waits and shit service this place is perfect for you!

Great place, maybe a bit too touristy . Not to miss if you are looking for some comfort food brought to the next level. Read more

You cannot leave Palermo unless you eat here first. Amazing

Marlon Beatt

One of the worst experiences I have had. Service was appalling and food had to be sent back. Nobody really cared that 2 out of 3 dishes where left uneaten. Don’t be fooled by the beautiful ambience!

ASLI

Coming to palermo and not eating here would be a shame! Very special sicilian tastes!

Dirk vdE

Acceptable food at very reasonable prices. Not haute-cuisine but what did you expect.

Narportakal Narportakal

Best place to try palermo s streetfood

Costanza Giovannini

No diary-free food ...except for the fried stuff and the pani ca meusa

Chrysavgi Sakel

The food was tasty... but be careful if you are a tourist . They will try to rip you off. Check the bill twice , they might charge you for things you didn't get

charlotte oakes

Rigatoni Norma is good. Focaccia with ricotta is not :(

RobiEnne

Pittoresco ????

Dan Mitchell

Do not go here. shittest restaurant in Sicily. undercooked pasta , 1hr wait, place sucks

Alxndr Sunny

Focaccia is a BigMa; pasta with sardines wasn't good.

Kubuś Samo Zło

Good for a quick bite .

Balazs Timko

Well they dont care too much about the customer, and I had the feeling that do the same with the meal. Disappointing..

Alex Block

Touristy , but nice to experience

Alicja Jelinska

Delicious!<3

Natasha Nikolic

Touristy , but nice

Fabio A

Historic place, but disappointing in the end. The old shop is beautiful but the McDonald's-style menus and the big touristic crowd make it a bit too "industrial"...

Sergi

Grumpy and slow staff , good food but not mind-blowing.

Safak Korkut

Over-rated!

Cristina Stopponi

Arancine!!

Rodolphe E

Good place to feel from Palermo.

Dorian Tireli

focaccia con milza . don't miss it...

KE

The food is bland, not good. Cute atmosphere but not worth having a meal here. The octopus salad tasted like nothing.

Holly Gamp

Food is tasty but the service is horrible. They are rude especially with the tourists ...
