"Cosy interior, friendly staff and delicious aperitivo. They were kind enough to let us sample the red wines before deciding what we wanted and the food was delicious. Plenty of vegetarian options too! I recommend arriving early as this place gets packed quickly!"

"The reviews of this place are a bit hit and miss but to be honest, I don't know what people are expecting. This place is exactly what it does on the tin- it's a local restaurant and bar serving drinks and mixed platters for a service charge. Out of all the ones in the area, this is one of the best. The staff were absolutely lovely, very charming and very friendly. The mixed platter is massive, varied and full of local foods- fried things, breads, tiny sandwiches. Super cute. It's the place to go if you're looking for authentic local food in a local bar."

"Worth eating here. Happy hour with food and drink €10. This is very popular and we could not get in the first time we tried. You get a plater with pasta dish and lots of small freshly made bread with different toppings. We really enjoyed this meal and was the cheapest we had. We could not eat everything but had a good try. I would recommend this to my friends."

"The place was nice. Price is 18€ per person for a platter consisting of french fries, mini burgers, focaccia slices, croquettes, arancini, two types of pasta, olives and dessert + a drink. Not bad for the price."

"I ate there two times with my family during our last holiday in Palermo. We chose this restaurant according to the opinion of other customers who we had met before. We ordered a set of appetizers made from seafood. All the dishes were excellent, so we decided to come there the following day. There was no problem to make the reservation. Furthermore, the staff was so pleasant, kind, and vibrant. One tip: I recommend you to come there around 8 pm, because later it's hard to find a free table."

"Cosy place, perfect for a drink with tapas. Located in one of small streets of the city center, this place charmed me with it's original decorations, warm lights and nice drinks. I definitely recommend it! I found prices a bit high for the quantity of the drink, but the presentation and the care of waiters definitely compensated it. Pay attention, it's almost always full, but don't be afraid to wait a bit, it worth it. For sure I recommend it!"
