Great service and even better food. The waiters recommended and excellent local wine and then an exceptional Sicilian grappa to end the meal. I had gnocchi stuffed with burata in a fish bass sauce. I’m not sure how the chef did it but one of the best dishes I’ve ever had.

Excellente cuisine, décors soignés, service très moyen . A la prise de commande, pas de volonté de commenter les plats ou de conseiller le choix de vins au verre, alors que nous nous disions touristes à la découverte de la gastronomie sicilienne.Le reste a suivi dans la même veine de non échanges…Pour notre départ, le chef de salle ne nous a salués que lorsque nous l’avons nous d’abord salué. Dommage pour la qualité et l’originalité de la cuisine …

Good was amazing. Though in my opinion the service may have been better, as waiters asked how other tables food were and seemed to tend to other tables more than us. Overall experience was good however

The service was great, but some of the food was leaving something to be desired. Our appetizers with tuna and other seafood were delicious, but the gnocchi we shared was unappetizing and too dense. We would certainly recommend it for antipasti, but not for a main course.

Locale molto curato ed elegante in una zona centrale di Palermo, servizio attento e cortese, cucina ottima dove creatività e tradizione sono ben combinate. Carta dei vini molto interessante soprattutto per quanto riguarda le cantine siciliane.

Belle le sale,ambienti affollati e tavoli un po' troppo vicini,abbinamento vini/bicchieri non adeguato,cibo di buona qualità ma coreograficamente non troppo curato.Speravamo un po' più di spiegazioni sui cibi scelti(richiesta ma stringata)servizio accurato,veloce e cortese.

I did not order bread, they brought it in without asking and put it into check without notification. Pasta was just ok. Tuna tataki without any taste, disgusting to be honest

We arrived in Palermo late, checked into our lodging, and asked the owner for a dinner recommendation. His top pick was Osteria Ballarò. After securing a reservation, we walked over to this tucked-away spot and were warmly greeted by a friendly, attentive host who seated us right away. Fresh bread and our choice of still water were promptly brought to the table. I mentioned my wife was gluten-free, and they assured us it wouldn’t be a problem. We started with an excellent appetizer—fresh seafood in a mustard sauce (unfortunately, the name escapes me). It was the highlight of the meal. For mains, the three of us ordered different pasta dishes, but none of them really impressed us. Overall, the food left us a bit underwhelmed. That said, the service was exceptional. The staff clearly cared about their guests and made an effort to create a welcoming experience. If you’re gluten-intolerant, just double-check that your dish is correct when it arrives. Our was not.

The atmosphere was beautiful; the service was a bit detached. The food was okay, but was really poor value for the price point. The Palermo street food was disappointing at best (at €28); a few items of fried chickpeas, arincini, seemed pretty lazy on the part of the restaurant. My biggest annoyance was that I wasted one of my nights in Palermo on this restaurant.
