“ Quick stop for lunch. Very friendly staff, top service and warm welcome. Unfortunately we only had time for spaghetti carbonara, before we had to continue oud journey. ”
“ Busy local pizzeria. Catered to us well despite us being the only English speakers we managed as one waitress and owner or head waiter could speak English well. Food was good, drinks reasonable prices. Good outside seating area as well as it was very hot inside. ”
“ We were hungry after being at a show at the Teatro Massimo. We had started talking to Pasquale as we were passing by the restaurant about the menu and he was so charming and welcoming that we decided to dine there. Christian looked after our food and drinks. We felt at home and like we had been served food cooked by nonna herself. Everything was delicious and perfect. I had lasagna and my husband had fettuccine. It was fresh and hot. Authentic Italian food. We highly recommend dining with them, no disappointments. We will be back next time we are Palermo!! Grazie!! ”
“ So found this place within walking distance of our hotel. Sundays are limited on selection, and this place had mixed reviews. It turned out to be a great choice. I had the gnocci, and my wife had the beef with mushrooms. Of course, we shared, and it was a great meal. Of course, we had a healthy amount of local wine to wash it all down. Would recommend it to any and all. Thanks for the experience. ”
“ We were visiting Venezia for one day and were looking for a local place to eat dinner because we like to eat where the locals eat. The food was amazing, so good and fresh! We really appreciated that we were accepted without a reservation. The restaurant has lots of seating and from what I saw there’s also a take away option for pizza. The menu is half seafood and half meat with both options in appetizers, first course, second course and then there’s the pizza menu. We really appreciated that despite the fact that the pizza we ordered was not on the menu that it was made how we requested, Gorgonzola and Speck. The Frittura Mista was delicious and a big quantity. Our girls ordered gnocchetti al ragù and they really enjoyed it a lot. Then there was dessert… we ordered a salame di cioccolato and tartufo bianco affogato (another item not included in menu but they were gracious to satisfy our request). The staff was friendly and helpful. Even though we come from Chicago, Illinois and it’s quite far to come back next week, we highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great seafood, pizza, pasta and the best service. ”
