Best places: Italian restaurants in Palermo, Italy

👍👍 I am proud to announce the commissioning of the new, 'Don't Talk to Me as I Eat' award. 🤫🤤😵👼 There are very few places in my life that I have eaten at and I just did not want to speak a word until I was finished. If you are eating with me while I am in such a trance 🍄, please pretend like I am...

👍👍 This place is a blast. We stopped for a light lunch as the Cathedral was closed for lunch. The decor is fun and well done, really creative and fanciful. The food was varied and really good. Service was attentive even when they were busy.

Low-key eatery with outdoor seating, preparing local staples including pasta, seafood & cannoli.

👍👍 I ate there 3 times in a week. Outstanding kitchen and service. The artichoke pasta was to die for. The stick to the roof of your mouth cheesecake was dense and not overly sweet. Outstanding pasta vongole, swordfish, involtini, and calamari. Service was very friendly and helpful. Just a great neighb...

Stone-lined, multilevel restaurant making classic pizza & pasta dishes, plus antipasti & desserts.

👍👍 This is a gem in Palermo. Great food at a great price. You have to pay at the cash register and they give you tickets to hand the cooks. Make sure to go to the pasta window and look at the wall next to it to see what they are serving. We got 2 plates of ravioli, 1 plate of another pasta, an aran...

👍👍 Very high level cuisine, bringing out the best from tradition and local ingredients (I say this as a Sicilian and connoisseur). Owner very professional and kind. "Spaghetti di mamma Nina" made it for an incredible first course, as well as all other dishes. Lovely location. All this at a fair price.

👍👍 If you are looking for a good combination of fine dining, reasonable pricing and tradition, this is a great choice. Service is top notch, cordial and professional.

👍👍 The friendly staff realized that I spoke little italian, yet helped me taste a variety of traditional food. My favourite was the caldume - interior de vitello -which was full of flavors, well seasoned and balanced. The other dish i had was grilled meat, potato croquettes and chick pea fritters; al...

👍 The service was definitely 5/5 and it kills me to not rate it as such, but honestly the food and atmosphere left a bit to be desired, especially considering the overall price point. First to say, the service was wonderful. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and patient with us despite my Ital...

😐 Nice dinner at quattro mani. The food tasted good and fresh. The portions were quite generous so very shareable. Nice wine list as well. Seating options include inside and outdoor tables by the street. I only wish the service had been a bit more attentive. The restaurant is priced higher than oth...

👍👍 We had a dinner, everything was so amazing that we booked for the next night as well 😁The food is really high quality, you can understand it from the oil and every ingredient they use! So fresh and yummy! The wine recommendation is also according to your taste and the all staff are very friendly an...

Quaint, cozy eatery preparing dishes showcasing local seafood such as shrimp, oysters & tuna.

👍👍 We searched on the internet for a restaurant near us and we found Vossìa a few meters from us. I ordered Octopus Palermitana and for seconds the Elephant ears. Every dish we’ve ordered was incredible, very fresh, rich in flavour and perfectly cooked. Definitely a place to visit again.

👍👍 One of the best restaurants we’ve eaten at in Italy! We were in Palermo for a month and tried a few restaurants; nothing comes close to Trattoria Carpaccio for an authentic Italian experience. The staff was warm, and welcoming, and our waitress made great recommendations. From starters to desserts...
