I could have bought the same salad at the grocery store earlier in the day for 2 euros and the bruschetta was sparse and flavourless. Go enjoy a glass of wine but eat elsewhere even for a snack.

However if you are prepared to wait 10-15 minutes there is a good chance of people leaving. Arrive after 8pm and you can enjoy nice wines and drinks whilst other are having dinner. The selection of wine is plentiful and service is friendley and fast. I'm going here every night of my stay.

We came in a Monday at 1 PM for lunch and were immediately seated by the lovely outdoor dining area. The staff were incredibly pleasant and we put our food and drink orders in shortly after being seated. We ordered the arancina, eggplant, and fried anchovies for appetizers all of which were excellent. Then we had a stromboli pizza (similar to pepperoni) and a ragusana pizza (mozzarella, Parma ham, and a Ragusano cheese) and it hit the spot! We also each had an Aperol Spritz which were great. Definitely recommend coming here for all manner of food!

Dining is informal, but the food was some of the best we had in Palermo. It is easy to pass this place as it is small and unassuming, but that is part of its charm.

I tried the 2010 red from the winery by Mount Etna. Totally worth the price. You gotta pay for class. The service is very Italian: Slow and a bit terse. Perfect, now you know you're in Italy. The place is cozy and yet has this traditional/historic feel. Come try it. Nah, you ain't classy like me. Grazie.

The size, selection and the staff's dedication to information sharing, when desired, as well as astutely judging the match between wine and the level of sophistication of the customer's palate, sets this as a must visit for those who want to increase their knowledge of wine in general and Sicilian wines in particular. We walked from our hotel near Piazza Verdi in 15 minutes and walked into the entryway that seems like any other small wine bar. After we explained what we wanted, we were shown to a very large 45' (15m.) long L shaped tasting area with 15-18 small elevated tables with two stools and two side tables at each place. The outside of the room is lined with fully stocked, floor to ceiling wine racks divided first by region and then by varietal. We asked for a primer on whites and started with 2 glasses of a carricante, an ancient Sicilian strain grown on Etna. We had sampled a cataratto earlier which seems to be the major white wing grape of the region and this had much more acid but pleasing citrus that compared most closely to a Sauvignon Blanc in our experience. We then tried an entry level nero d'avola, the major Sicilan red, that compared to Syrah and another red that was very harsh by comparison and so, unfortunately, forgettable. Service was knowledgeable, attentive, provided in English and Italian and the original 4 oz. (120 ml.) pours were toned down to 2 oz. (60 ml.) at our request so we could walk back. The total for 2 larger pours and 2 smaller ones was 12E. For an impromptu beginning tasting this was just what we wanted and we will go back for a second flight.

The glow of a small group drinking and chatting inside drew me in. A great view through tall windows on the cold rain outside: In warmer months I have no doubt the guests spill out onto the adjacent footpath. Staff were welcoming and happy to help an English speaker and recommended one of the smaller mixed meat and cheese platters. Pecorino, baked ricotta, bufala mozzarella, spicy sausage, porchetta, donkey mortadella... all delicious. My eyes were (unfortunately) bigger than my stomach - I had more than enough to eat. Service was fast, and smiling.

Only gripe is they seem to charge a premium for the location. I guess this must be a resort town or something, but it was nearly double the price for the same dishes you could get in Palermo. Quality food and wine though, even at the price it is worth checking out.
