I visited A'Cuncuma in September 2012. At the time, the restaurant has only been opened for about 3 months in a very commercial part of Palermo. As we wandered around on a Sunday afternoon close to 2pm, the town was deserted and the restaurant looked closed. The door was slightly ajar so we poked our heads in and found most... More

This small restaurant serves dishes which are based on local cuisine but have the sophisticated and complex flavours that would be created by a top international chef. The restaurant is modest and in a back street, but well worth discovering. The red mullet with a citron, herb and oil liquor is outstanding.

We visited this fabulous restaurant, and were greeted by a most hospitable and knowledgeable host. We decided to take the taster menu , and were treated to the most exquisite regional dishes.

Yes, indeed the food they serve looks very good!! Every dish we ordered was articulately prepared. But they also tastes very good. The semifreddo was the best we ever had!

We had the set menu of six courses, very like the tasting menus in... More

When we arrived we immediately liked the place - nice décor and atmosphere The menu was a bit pricy, but, hi, we are on vacation. Than it started: most of the dish run... More

We arrived at A’ Cuncuma without reservations, and although it was quite small, we were seated right away. What followed was the most memorable dinner of the trip, with superb food and wonderful wine. The standout dish was red snapper stuffed with small shrimp with a wonderful light sauce that was simply remarkable. We had a couple of very good... More

Everything was amazing here --the home made tomato pasta and the beef are a must! I would come back to Palermo just to eat here again.
