    If you're vegan... fuck all else and head straight here. If you're not vegan and want real food…read morethat tastes great and is actually made here... fuck all else and go here, right away. The pastas are all homemade and they have many vegan options. And not just like, "Yeah, we have eggplant and tasteless salad and we can remove the tuna and cheese and suck ass so you can eat."... it's more like, "You thought you like pasta, try this shit, it's fucking awesome!" I'm not kidding. You choose the style of pasta (I had gnocchi ((potato/gf)) and the wife had bucatini). Two vegan options, and holy god dammit all... mind blowing. I cried when it was over. Okay... I have to balance this out with some bad. The yang to the yin. Goddam plastic water bottles and plastic water cups!! Why?! Stop it Sicily... you're out of control with the pollution... like WAY out of control. Be better than the rest! That's all, I should take off a star for that, but I believe once they read this... they'll change. Giuliana was our waitress and I don't know the chef's name yet, but we're going back tomorrow so I'll find out. I actually clapped for him. That's how awesome this shit is. Vegan awesome sauce like no other. You've never had pasta this good. Never.

    The first time we ate here was super confusing. It was dinner time and the restaurant was pretty…read morefull and lively as there was a band performing. We thought we were waiting in line but then realized that the people had spilled out into the front and weren't really waiting, they were just drinking and chilling. After some confusing exchanges we got a table outside though, so all was good. The pasta was great! They have several different sauces and fresh pastas that you can mix and match. I loved the pesto trapanese. We liked it so much that we went back on our last night and got some to-go. Our waitress was very nice and despite the crowd the food didn't take long.

So we pointed to a few things that looked good and took a seat while they warmed it up and brought it over. I chose a stuffed baked bread thing with sesame seeds. It was amazingly delicious and completely not keto. My friend chose a fried chicken breast with some sauteed vegetables. Also delicious. With the beer, we had a super lunch that gave us the energy to continue exploring Palermo. A little bit of trouble with the credit card machine (yeah, no surprise there) and we were able to get past the language barrier just fine with pointing. While we were here, they got a big queue of folks for some sort of "loose meat" sandwich. I'd try that next time. [Review 12826 overall, 141 of 2020.]

    The friendly lady in the Royal Palace down the road suggested this as an authentic street food…read moreplace nearby. Boy, was she right. It's delicious Sicilian specialties, plus pizza, which - see photos - you order and eat on the street. I was after some Panelle, chickpea fritters, which are on all the "must eat" lists. They had several items with it. I used the google camera translator and found one with mushrooms - funghi. Plus something with mozzarella and eggplant. Everything was so inexpensive - 2 or 3 euros, that I thought they'd be little tastes, like a $16 San Francisco appetizer. Wrong! Each was enough for a meal. Big sandwiches - see photos, 7 euros would easily feed two people. Tasty, authentic and quite a scene. PS On the way out I noticed a big pot of what I thought was a chocolate dessert. Wrong again! Spleen! In the last photo. I'm not partial to spleen, but it was very popular.

    Today I learned that a friggitoria is a shop that sells fried foods. I don't know if there is an…read moreequivalent in the United States, but this is a thing here in Sicily. Street food and not just frites or potato fries. Passami Ù Coppu has a bunch of different arancine stuffed with a variety of things. Our food tour stopped here and everyone chose different fillings, from ragu to cheese and chicken. I decided to go with the traditional Sicilian, which was stuffed with sardines. Fresh and hot and yes, fishy. But that's what sardines are so I can't say that I didn't get what I wanted. Great street food and later after the tour, we stopped back here and picked up some Sicilian chocolates to bring home as gifts. [Review 12796 overall, 110 of 2020.]

    A great place to try Sicilian street food!…read more They have an extensive menu which is all in Italian, with a photo of each option. If you require an English menu, just ask at the pay register. It was a bit hectic getting our choices as the place was packed. But the staff were really friendly and helpful. They also serve alcohol and have a couple seating areas inside and outside. We were a bit out of sorts ordering and grabbing our food, but it happened by chance the owner was there and he was very accommodating to us, getting us a food tray and bowl of dipping sauce. It was delicious food as well. And the Cannoli was awesome! It was flakey and easy to eat, unlike other s we tried.
