Palermo's Sicilian Cucina

I really wanted good Italian food. Sign said seat yourself so I did. The server walked by me half a dozen times or so, looked at me but never said anything to me. 10 minutes later still no menu... Nothing. 2 groups that came in after me had their drinks and had placed orders. I'm still waiting for good Italian, apparently wint be getting it here.

Went last night for the first time after cruising by the Olive Garden to see people standing and waiting as usual.  Small place, all tables, quaint, was obviously some other restaurant prior to this.  The food was much better than Olive Garden!  Menu- you have choices of type of pasta, sauce, toppings kind of a 'you build it' pasta bowl served with a big hunk of bread (which was great).  Cannoli was small but tasty.  Service was very friendly.

Always great service.  Family-run (which is a rarity in this town) and that is a big plus for me.

Food has been great each time we've visited.  They introduced my daughter to a misto sauce which she asks for at other places and it befuddles most servers.  

Good family atmosphere although the deserts are more niche than most kids usually like.  My favorite is the one which involves a stuffed pastry, caramelized crust, and an amaretto cream.
