Corona Trattoria on Via Marconi in Palermo's Liberta quarter sources seafood daily from the city's fishermen, with a modern raw-plate carte alongside.
OrderBucatini con le sarde and a plate of gambero rosso crudo with bottarga.
TipBook three days ahead at weekends. The chef's tasting is the kitchen's verdict on the day's catch.
FUD Bottega Sicula on Piazza Olivella in Palermo runs a Sicilian-ingredient burger and hot-dog room, Modica beef in the patties, Nebrodi cured meats.
OrderThe Shek burger with Modica beef, paired with a house Bottega Sicula craft beer.
TipNo reservations; lunch is the easiest entry. The vegetarian Sicilian burger is the credible meat-free option.
Frida Pizzeria on Piazza Sant'Onofrio in Palermo's Capo quarter runs a Frida-Kahlo-themed dining room with a strong vegetarian and vegan slate alongside.
OrderCaponata pizza, the house signature of sweet-sour aubergine on a thin Palermitan crust.

Ke Palle on Via Maqueda between the Quattro Canti and Teatro Massimo in Palermo is the city's flagship arancineria, 20-plus daily flavours fried to order.
OrderArancina classica (meat ragu) and the porcini, the two most ordered.
TipOpen 10:00-22:00 daily. Vegan and vegetarian fillings are clearly labelled; the pistachio is the after-dinner sleeper.
Nni Franco u' Vastiddaru on Corso Vittorio Emanuele at Piazza Marina in Palermo is the canonical pane con la milza counter, founded 1992 by a former Antica.
OrderPane con la milza maritato (with caciocavallo and ricotta), the Palermo street food rite of passage.
TipCash works fastest. The vastedda al lardo is the milder gateway; ask for it without spleen if you want the bread experience alone.
Ballarak on Piazza Magione in Palermo's Kalsa quarter is the city's first craft brewery and brewpub since 2016, four taps of house beer alongside a Sicilian.
OrderSfincione-style pizza and the Suino Nero burger, with the house IPA on tap.
TipThe piazza-facing tables are the best summer seats. Tap list rotates monthly; ask which beer is the freshest.
