Description

In a town renowned for its splendid villas built by the Palermo aristocracy, this restaurant occupies a small 16C tower on the edge of the historic centre. The name is a tribute to lemon, a fruit that grows in abundance in Bagheria. The restaurant has two elegant, contemporary-style floors, where dinner starts on the small terrace-cum-lounge – the setting for sampling a whole host of delicious appetisers. This is guests’ first encounter with a technical and creative cuisine that sensitively uses the finest local ingredients, while often following paths born from personal and imaginative ideas.
