Everything exceeded our expectations! We have both been in the restaurant business for years and can’t stop raving about it! The Bao is not to be missed! One of our favorites in Palermo.

Went there on my last day in Palermo. Super restaurant away from the noisy and touristic spots. Food was great and sharing tapas was refreshing after eating pasta/pizza for a whole week. Cocktails were amazing and prepared meticulously. Service was perfect, staff was super friendly and nice.

Yoooo what are you waiting for the food was exceptional honestly haven’t had tapas where I felt like every plate was made to be perfect, I’m writing this review a day after and my mouth is watering!! I think the location is just a minute off the “main” road and that’s why it haven’t gotten the attention it deserves. Book it. Now. I’m telling ya

I loved this restaurant. It had beautiful Sicilian dishes but with a welcome twist from the dishes available elsewhere in town. I had squid ink pasta but with an amazing clarity of lemon, butter and seafood. Surprisingly that had both a Korean and Japanese chicken dishes that were far elevated above the normal versions of those dishes. Amazing caramelised chicken skin flavour in both with fantastic garnishees. The waiter as also very friendly and helpful with the wines. You may have to wait slightly longer for your food here but it is well worth it. I also liked the location in a quiet piazza away from the main Maqueda. I’m disappointed I can’t return when passing through Palermo as it seems to just open in the evenings.

Pricey for the portions. Nothing was exceptional save the Korean fried chicken which was outstanding.

We are sorry that you did not appreciate our cuisine, with the exception of the KOREAN CHICKEN. As for the portions, they are "tapas". By definition they are "portions" to be shared. Anyway, thanks for the review anyway.🙏🏻☺️

This is the best dinner we had in Sicily. The food is both interesting and delicious. We paid over double at other restaurants and they were a disappointment in comparison. We had five tapas and a bottle of wine between two and the bill was €75. The service is excellent and the interior is well designed. It’s absolutely worth a visit.

Presentation is amazing, ideas are great, but taste was poor. We were a company of five and tried almost everything on the menu. Wouldn’t go back or recommend.

Lovely restaurant hidden away down a side street. Staff very welcoming and the food was very nice too. Unfortunately it was empty apart from us, so it felt a bit awkward. Definitely worth a visit.

Amazing food and service. Very welcoming! The starter and pasta dishes we had were outstanding! Wonderfully tasty and well seasoned. We were dining early for Italy and it was a shame to be the only ones enjoying the fantastic food but I hope the restaurant got busier later as they deserve it.

Atmosphere was cool and the attention by the waiter team was even better. However, portions are quite smaller than we expected according to the price. Quality might be great, but tastes and quantity not. We got a discount thankfully which was great and made the bill reasonable, otherwise we would regret.
