2 Best Restaurants in Palazzolo Arceide, Sicily

Palazzolo Acreide has become a bit of a food town in recent years, and this blink-and-you-miss-it spot, housed in an ancient grotto off the main street, is a big part of that. The family-run restaurant offers house antipasti big enough to share (like the unique Mortadella mousse) and a short menu of high-quality entrées including a black lentil risotto. For dessert, don't miss the grape granita: two frozen berries and a lemon semifreddo.

Following the slow food approach, this restaurant is known for showcasing high-quality, local ingredients, thanks to a chef who captures the essence of classic Sicilian dishes while still upgrading them to the level of fine dining. The menu changes daily depending on what's in season and available at the local market, but there's always the award-winning sausage and an excellent rabbit pasta dish.
