We ordered from here last night and let me tell you, the food was beyond disappointing and ESPECIALLY for the price. The Caesar salad, I’m almost positive, had to bagged lettuce and bottle dressing. For a “higher end” Italian restaurant, I absolutely expected homemade salad. The vodka rigatoni and charm parm are mid at best. Didn’t feel fresh or tasty at all. We ordered pizza which was superrrrr thin and bland. Tasted horrible. The clams were a little bit better and the tiramisu was good. Everything else felt like boxed food. For a higher end restaurant, it should definitely feel like all the food is homemade or at least the pricing should reflect that. This felt like takeout food from an ok pizzeria. Super super disappointing.

Palermo has become my go-to spot in Astoria, and honestly, it’s one of the best neighborhood restaurants I’ve ever experienced. From the moment you walk in, the warm, welcoming vibe hits you—cozy brick interior, friendly staff who remember regulars, and that perfect mix of intimate and lively energy, especially with outdoor seating in nice weather.
The food is outstanding: homemade pastas that are perfectly al dente, generous portions, and flavors that taste like they come straight from Italy. Their meatballs with penne are legendary—juicy, flavorful, and paired with a sauce that’s rich but not heavy. The brick-oven pizzas are crisp and charred just right, the burrata is creamy heaven, and don’t skip the tiramisu—it’s one of the best I’ve had anywhere. Seafood dishes stand out too; everything feels fresh and thoughtfully prepared.
What seals it as a true essential? Consistency. Whether dine-in or takeout, the quality never dips—every order arrives hot, accurate, and delicious. Service is attentive without being overbearing, and the value is spot-on for the quality ($$ but worth every penny).
In a city where chains keep popping up, places like Palermo keep Astoria’s soul alive. Support local spots like this—they make the neighborhood special. Team Palermo, you’re killing it! Grazie mille—I’ll be back soon (and often).
Highly recommend to anyone craving elevated Italian comfort food without leaving the hood. 5 stars all the way!

What a wonderful place! We had the good fortune of eating here often & are forever happy with the entire experience at Palermo! Our wait person, Frida, is superb! She is extremely knowledgeable & very friendly, she makes you feel like you’re home! Magda offers an incredible experience with delicious food & a warm welcoming! It never disappoints! And, of course, the bartender Panos is charismatic & engaging! Frankly the entire staff, Frida, Marina & Vinny are beyond comparison, they are the best! It doesn’t hurt that the food is excellent, mouth watering & you leave happier than you came! Thank you always for a wonderful time! Denis Diaz & John Holden

I’ve ordered delivery from Palermo a bunch of times and it’s always been great, but actually coming in to eat with my family was even better. The food was amazing, everything came out hot and full of flavor, and the portions were solid. The vibe was relaxed, the staff was super nice, and it just felt like an easy, really good family meal. Definitely a spot we’ll keep coming back to, whether it’s delivery or dining in.

Palermo in Astoria is an absolute neighborhood gem. The food is consistently delicious, with classic Italian flavors that feel both comforting and thoughtfully prepared. Everything tastes fresh and homemade, from the perfectly cooked pasta to the rich, flavorful sauces. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot for a relaxed dinner or a special night out. What really sets Palermo apart is the friendly, attentive service—you’re made to feel like a regular even on your first visit. If you’re looking for authentic Italian food in Astoria with heart and soul, Palermo is a must-visit.

When I think of essential neighborhood restaurants, Palermo makes my short list.

I’ve worked in this industry for many years and this is the definition of a great neighborhood restaurant.

First off, the food here is really good. I work in a Michelin starred restaurant. I’m telling you, the quality-portion-price ratio is pretty fair here.

It’s not cheap by any means, but you’re really getting what you pay for. The quality of their seafood is significantly higher than what else is available in the neighborhood. The portion sizes are pretty generous.

If I’m craving something elevated and don’t want to leave the neighborhood, it’s comforting to know that option is nearby.

The most impressive thing for me though is their consistency on takeout orders. They are consistently good, they’ve never missed, and every once in a while, they blow me away and leave me shocked at how well they execute.

I can’t afford eating here all the time, but I make it a point to support these folks when I can. These kinds of restaurants are what make a community great.

Nowadays, communities lose 5 restaurants like this one and replace it with an Olive Garden and a Dominos. It makes me so sad.

Neither you, nor I want that to happen to Astoria. Support your local restaurants! Bravo team!

Fantastic! My wife and I travel to Italy all the time and the food here was on par and in many cases, surpassed the best food we’ve ever had in Italy. Absolutely superb!

Everything and I mean everything was a home run!! Even the decor. We sat outside on a beautiful summer night and enjoyed our evening like we were back in Italy. You should have to bring a passport to visit this place. It’s *that* good.

Also want to mention our wonderful server BOBANA – who was knowledgeable, friendly, and made fantastic suggestions!! Couldn’t ask for more.

Also had the pleasure of meeting the owner BONO – who was so nice and pleasant and you could tell he *really* cared about the experience people had at his restaurant. Everything was top notch.

==============

♦️We got:

— MEATBALLS (appetizer) – incredible!!

— EGGPLANT ROLLETTINI (appetizer) – superb flavor topped with an excellent vodka sauce.

— FRIED ZUCCHINI & EGGPLANT (appetizer) – everything was incredible but these 100% stole the show!!! So so so good!!

— 16 inch MARGHERITA PIZZA – Great crisp! Great undercarriage! No flop! Packed with flavor!!

==============

DESERT:

— CREME BRÛLÉE CHEESECAKE – holy sh%t this was amazing!!

==============

Cannot say enough nice things!! Can’t wait to go back and visit and bring friends

The food was good but service left much to be desired and we felt forgotten by the waiter. Overall decent dining experience although too expensive for what it’s really worth.
