A fantastic find on the first evening in Palermo. A warm and inviting decor with excellent…read morecocktails and small plates. Bartender Fabrizio made some excellent variations on traditionals including his own takes on the Negroni, Hanky Panky, and Old Fashioned (with Grappa). He is well trained and creative with great presentation skills. The owner was on site and careful of every detail. This place is worth going out of your way for but better yet, if you are in Palermo, do pay a visit.

I absolutely love this place! Booked a last minute trip to Palermo and found this cool speakeasy…read morevibe of a bar while walking the streets after checking into my hotel. The best server (might I say EVER), Salvo, was so kind and hilarious all night. He was attentive to my group's needs, suggested the best drinks, and helped us order in Italian. Truly such an awesome experience, will be back!

Tonight we went to Mak Mixology with my aunt. We had an amazing time. The service was fantastic. We…read morehad a great server Anahi who was spectacular. She made sure we had everything we needed and provided better service than any place I have been to in the US. It was a great time talking and listening to live music from the band "il mucciante". Leonardo played the guitar and Raphael the accedian. The place is dimly lit with a feel of the golden age and has that nice lounge feel. The decore consists of items from the 1930s to 1940s and the building is spectacular. It has large doors and extremely high ceiling with a mesh-like roof giving you an outdoor feel. The staff was all great but our server Anahi made our night. The room has some sort of birdcage with seats and I'm not sure what it is and think it's a VIP area but If you know please post. There is a cool lite up mak sign with Kiss me on it and in the bar room you can watch the bartenders work their craft. The drink menu is in a book and they have lots of amazing house drinks as well as anything else you may want. They have a limited beer menu and an appetizer menu with a few amazing items. The spot is great for a date or anniversary if you want to hear live music and sip on drinks. #ilmucciante #makmixology #makmixologypalermo #palmero #italy #italytravel #scisily #vacation #mixology

We had a great evening at this restaurant with one significant exception. The location and view is…read moreto die for. The restaurant and bar have an amazing view of the temple of Concordia. We started off with a cocktail at the bar. Our bartender was charming. We were given some tasty snacks to accompany our drinks. The outdoor tables at the restaurant have the same breathtaking view. The waitstaff were lovely and attentive. The home made bread, tomato butter and house olive oil were excellent. The chef sent out some excellent small bites to start. The wine list was good, with a lot of fairly priced selections. My wife and her friend started off with an excellent salad. My buddy and I enjoyed ring pasta served over meat sauce. We also really liked our fried fish entrees. Our waitress recommended the lobster and pasta special to my wife and her friend. They decided to split an order. I had read that lobster and some of the fish were priced by weight, but didn't give it another thought. The waitress brought out a nice lobster and showed it to us. Imagine our surprise when we were charged 180 euros for this single dish. I am from Manhattan and have eaten at expensive restaurants all over the world. This is the most expensive entree that I have ever paid for, even when split between two people. I was shocked and a bit embarrassed. This put a damper on our evening. I would happily enjoy another meal at this special location, but buyer beware when it comes to entrees priced by weight!

We were fortunate to stay at Villa Athena as part of a Classic Journeys tour of Sicily. On two…read morenights we were treated to dinners at La Terrazza degli Dei that were chef-curated meals specifically designed for our group. The dinner service was attentive and professional. Live soft piano music drifted across the terrace where we were seated. The food was very delicious and crafted from locally sourced ingredients, including their own olive oil served with their freshly baked breads and breadsticks. As others have noted the view from La Terrazza degli Dei is spectacular (the Temples are illuminated at night) which only added to the experience of the evenings. Breakfast is another treat as it is served on the lower terrace of the restaurant with an expansive choice of items and with a tower of assorted pastries delivered to each table (and including a morning view of the Temples).

During the daytime, it is all families. Come sunset, it turns into a big beach party. We were there right before sunset, before it got packed, and were able to grab a table, snacks, waiter service, listen to the tunes (female DJ), and watch the sunset. We left before it got packed. During high season, it's the place to be, as the bartender informed us. Maybe another time...
