Comfort and Knowledge! It's not always about where you sit! It's about the FOOD AND SERVICE! – Great experience. Went on an off night because of a friends birthday. Food was great and so was the service. Our waiter Robert recommended all the things that we had on the menu and was correct about everything. Burrata, and a duck ragu pasta. Lovely. I will second, the best cannoli in LA! I've been in the restaurant business since I was 15 years old. It's good to find a place in this city that makes you feel comfortable and that t... read more

awful service - similar food – i would not even recommend this restaurant to people i didn't like. upon walking in, we were seated at a table that was so poorly lit we may as well have been eating in a storage closet. after sitting for 20 minutes without being spoken to, let alone greeted, a waiter arrived asking us if we were ready to order. food was passable at best. upon receiving the check, we noticed we were charged for a desert we did not order (we clearly were not sticking around for desert to begin with) the restaura... read more

A true gem. – I kept driving past Palmeri and finally went in for dinner one day. It was great. I had the grilled shrimp wrapped in thin slices of swordfish laid on a bed of fresh arugula with a delicious citrus sauce. My boyfriend had the lamb which he said was great. I went in again a week later and this time had the roasted organic chicken --- this confirmed that the first time was no fluke. The food is excellent. For any of you who are wondering where this place is, it's accross the street from Hamburger Hamlet and it us... read more

Sicilian hospitality caters to students and more mature crowd seeking tranquility and a good wine selection. – In Short The intellectual crowd from nearby UCLA and Westside corporate professionals break bread over impeccably set tables while dimmed, recessed lighting sets a subdued and relaxed mood. Brown and beige leather tables stretch across the dining room, cornering a granite-topped bar. Servers wearing crisp aprons presents pizza baked in wood-burning ovens and rotisserie chicken. But the restaurant's main focal point ... read more

Absolutely Wonderful – I took a few buddys to Palmeri after taking my wife one night. I must say it was a great and different experience each time, a date with the wife and a dining and wine extravaganza with the boys. I was told to let the chef and owner Ottavio Palmeri to go ahead and serve us a 6 course dinner. We started with scallops with micro greens, from there we received his beet salad, followed by a combination of two pastas a tortilloni with tomaoe two cheeses and guanciale"pork cheeks"incredibly light and delicat... read more

Great new place – Just ate lunch here. Get the word out this place is a new one to watch. The Fritto Misto at $10 is a steal and one of the best. Can't wait to try more.

Very Nice Italian, Westside – With all the Italian Restaurant Choices along San Vicente, Palmeri stands out. The Swordfish wrapped Giant Shrimp is the best anywhere and several other dishes are outstanding.
