10/10This is unlike any restaurant I have experienced. It has everything you would expect from a Michelin star restaurant, plus a unique insight and display of apple computers contribution to the digital world we live in. The service, food, wine, and the ambience surpassed all of our expectations. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Palermo, Sicily, I highly recommend you include MEC in your travel plans.

10/10If only I could give more than 10/10 - I would. I had one of the best times eating here, with some great friends. The Staff is the perfect mixture between friendly and highly proffessional and the food is beyond words. My group and I litteraly booked another table two days later, because we wanted to eat everything again :D (the second time the experience was just as perfect).

9/10Très bonne cuisine innovative, cadre surprenant (fondé sur le Mac) mais très intéressant. Très bonne carte des vins. Prix élevé.

4.5/10Our overall waiter who served the food was extremely nice. However the gentleman who did the wine pairing was very passive aggressive and almost ruined our whole experience. Was not the level of device we deem acceptable in this establishment.

8/10The restaurant provides 2 menu and ala Carte. We chosen the vegetarian (110€per person). Although, the food was tasteful, in my opinion it did not reach the level of a Michelin awarded restaurant. The service was professional.

10/10The restaurant is located within a museum for Steve Jobs and his beginnings of Apple. The introduction is great.. The tasting menu is adventurous and the service is timely. The wine parings were good, unfortunately Sicilian white wines are not our favorite. One should note there are stairs up to the restaurant, so plan ahead.

7.5/10The food was good. The waitress who served us was nice and professional. We made a mistake when we ordered the dessert, but the restaurant manager made a bigger mistake. He tried to correct it, but we left with a bitter taste. Nevertheless, it is a good restaurant.

9/10특이한 인테리어의 식당이었으며 음식은 좋았으나 가격대비 특별한 것은 아니었습니다. 직원들은 매우 친절하였고 절절하게 손님을 도와주었습니다.

9.5/10Some really amazing-tasting courses, and ALL of them beautifully presented, elegant. Certainly 1 star is justified, and we started to think really should be 2-stars, but 1-2 courses didn't quite make it to 2 stars for us.

10/10Interestingly conceived as a Museum restaurant, MEC well deserves its Star. The menu is imaginatively designed and the dishes are a sensory treat. The wine list is impressive and well recommended with the food. Service was impeccable. MEC is well on its way to a second Star!

10/10We had a phenomenal experience at MEC, a fine dining restaurant that truly is special. The setting is both gorgeous and individual, food outstanding - some of the best dishes I’ve had in a very long time - and the service was about the best I’ve experienced in a long life of eating in restaurants. Giovanni could not have been kinder or more attentive. We are longing to return.
