In the heart of monumental Palermo, set in a 16th-century palazzo almost opposite the Cathedral (after your meal, ask to step out onto the balcony: a fitting finale to a special evening), this distinctive restaurant shares its space with an exhibition dedicated to Steve Jobs. Diners are welcomed into one of three elegant rooms, beneath frescoed ceilings and surrounded by photographs and memorabilia tracing the story of the computer pioneer. In the kitchen, chef Carmelo Trentacosti reinterprets Sicilian recipes and ingredients with a personal touch: his famous caponata, for example, becomes a v

This simple yet lively and dynamic restaurant occupying the beautiful, historic rooms of an old shop is always busy with locals and tourists, so booking ahead is highly recommended. Dishes are traditionally Sicilian, such as the “sarde a scottadito” (sardines) and change regularly in line with the seasons. Meat, fish, offal and vegetarian options all feature on the menu.

In the vibrant heart of the city, between the Vucciria market and the Cala harbor, modern design and vivid colours bring a contemporary touch to the timeless charm of the ancient walls that house it: those of the 16th-century workshop of sculptor Antonello Gagini. In the kitchen, a new chef of Piedmontese origin weaves together the recipes of his native region and northern Italy with the freshness of the sea and the rich pleasures of Trinacria, drawing out their quality through original and well-considered pairings. Among the standout dishes are barbecued mussels with ‘nduja salmoriglio, Vietn

In 2022, young sous-chef Gianfilippo Gatto became the owner-chef of this simple and intimate restaurant situated in Palermo’s historic centre. The key attraction here is the quality of the cuisine, which features colourful dishes and modern interpretations of Sicilian recipes (meat and fish alike). Examples include arancina stuffed with young caciocavallo cheese and cooked in the oven, then topped with orange prawn tartare and served on a prawn bisque. The excellent wine list is completely Sicilian, with separate sections dedicated to the Etna wines produced in different parts of the region, m
