Super spot. So lucky to have found this gem just around my neighbourhood. It has become our favourite date night or 'I don't feel like cooking' joint. They cook the pizza to perfection, well done and crisp, with a pungent olive oil taste present in the dough; even when reheated the next day! I absolutely love their pesto. The staff is very cordial, and they really sell the 'Sicilian' experience. Attention to details = amazing, they put out mini personal fireplaces by the tables. So cozy. Love it.Vegetarian options: They are able to accommodate for vegetarians. The pesto gnocchi and vegetable pizza are super!Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp and a private party room.

It's a Hole in a wall restaurant serving authentic Italian food. Ambiance takes you to classical Italy.

We had high expectations based on reviews, but these were unfortunately not met.The initial bread was hard,Soup was ok,The bruschetta was also plain hard bread with tomatoes,And the pasta we had (2 different types) underwhelming.I hate to write not positive reviews, but we go to Italian restaurants often, and I was expecting more.I guess others might have different experiences, and hope ours was an exception.The atmosphere was nice, as was the service.

Palermo is our go-to restaurant in town. The down-home Italian cuisine is reliably excellent, well-prepared and delicious. The service is superb, efficient and hospitable. This family-owned restaurant is great for large crowds or intimate dinners. We come here often, and frequently bring our out-of-town guests. I can honestly say that we have never had anything less than an excellent experience here.

Always a good time at our favorite, Palermo! Absolutely a place to come back to time after time and is truly a gem of San Jose. The sweetest staff works there and are very attentive! Love the bread & oil/vinegar when you’re seated and my husband always loves the tortellini Alfredo. And to finish it all off, get the cheesecake. You won’t be disappointed! 10/10 <3

The staff is disrespectful and aggressive. I get that they were short staffed but we had a reservation at 8. They made us wait 40 minutes for a table, without so much as acknowledging us.

Palermo is a popular neighborhood gem and a “go to” location for many Silicon Valley residents. They may not know your first name but they remember your smile and treat everyone as a friend. Everything is made fresh daily and the cocktails are yummy.

Highly recommend! Have been coming here for years and the food and service never ceases to amaze. The service is incredible and the waitress Luciana was remarkably kind and attentive. If you haven’t gone here already you are missing out!

Oh my gawd. Oh my gawwwddd. This place. It is AMAZING. I go here weekly with my partner. It is a cute little house turned restaurant. The atmosphere and decoration are stunning to say the least. My partner loves the hanging lights throughout. The service from the hosts to the servers to the bussers are impeccable and unforgettable. However, even with all that said, the food. The food is where this place shines. Sicilian style food. Food that makes my mouth water when just thinking about it.Give it a go.You will not be disappointed and wanting to keep coming back!
