Palermo Cucina in North Vancouver

Great service with authentic, fresh, delicious food. If youre looking for great Italian with a cozy family vibe, this is it.

Best Italian restaurant on the North Shore! The restaurant is under new management. Our server, tina was extremely professional and Knowledgable about the menu and took her time to explain in detail. We went with all her recommendations and enjoyed every last bite of it Food was great! Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian pizza, pasta

I ordered through Doordash and the food was nicely hot as well as the look of the plates was beautiful. But, they forgot utensils, and once I had a bite of the lasagna, it was a total disappointment. It seems as if they dont know about parsley, basil or other seasonings. The Caprese Salad was tasteless, both the cheese and the balsamic had no flavor, the arugula was a little old. Lastly, the cannolis were uneatable, the filling tasted like passed thick sour cream.

Great food and better service! Highly recommend

My sister got food poisoned eating their lasagna a month ago and she is still dealing with the sickness. The doctor ended up prescribing antibiotics. She went through lots of tests and pain. Be careful eating their food.

Had dinner here recently & was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance, live music, great service & delicious pizza Their sangria was superb & we look forward to sitting outside once the weather warms up again. Food

Everytime we come to North Van on business we go here. Food is terrific and reasonably priced. Pizza is always a go to plus the meat lasagna, Chicken Alfredo and the lamb ragu are our favorites.

Extremely satisfied with the new management and great quality food. Customer service was insane at this restaurant Food

Mind blowing how this place has terrible food, is never busy, but has hundreds of 5 star reviews

It is a very good restaurant with excellent food and professional staff

Food was awesome, servers were very kind. unfortunately we got disturbed by one their cooks who sat at a larger table alone next to us watching tiktoks at full volume.. made it really ruin the feeling of professionalism for us.

Everything was great

This place has the vibes and great food!

Great place

Do not go here. The business owes thousands to previous staff because they steal their tips The place is a rotating door of staff because of the theft of wages. The food is ok but theyve only survived from exploiting staff. Akbarjoojeh across the road is the same. Dont suppourt businesses who exploit their own people.

They have a wooden oven!!! Amazing pizza Food

100% the best pizza and the best Caesar salad I have ever had, hands down!

Not a huge fan of leaving negative reviews, but i just wanna share my experience here cause i couldnt do it on the app. I ordered 2 of their Margherita pizzas off of uber eats and neither of them were worth the money IMO. Both pizzas were way too undercooked, and were probably the thinnest most flimsy pizzas Ive ever had (like 1/8 of an inch thick) and i dont mind a thin pizza, as long as its cooked long enough. And then after they took the pizza out of the oven, they put raw tomatoes on top which were cold (which made the pizza cold), and because the pizzas were so thin and undercooked, everything including the tomatoes just fell right off before you could even eat it. Not to mention the pizza sauce just tasted like store-bought pasta sauce from Superstore. Id consider giving them another chance sometime down the road, but Im hesitant to order from them online again.

I had a chance to experience this restaurant from an employee point of view and I would not recommend to anyone to either eat there or work there. First of all whenever you give the tips to the server it s going directly to the owners pocket he s not tipping out kitchen or anyone. He s always hiring new employees and not paying for the trainings for even a week. Their food is trash also, I would not bother to pay for that. You can get way better food anywhere else. They have rats in the restaurant. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS PLEASE !

I recently dined at Palermo Cucina, and I must say, it was an incredible experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was absolutely delicious. From the appetizers to the dessert, every dish was prepared with care and packed with flavor. A special shoutout to Yasmin, our server, who made the evening even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations were spot on, and she ensured that we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I highly recommend Palermo Cucina to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. Thank you, Yasmin, and the entire team for a memorable night!

I came here for my girlfriend birthday and it was amazing. They gave us a cake tiramisu for her birthday and it was delicious! Their pizzas are the best i loved the Capricciosa pizza my girlfriend had the Risotto fungi pasta and it was rlly good The spot was so cozy and the atmosphere was super nice I loved this place and I definitely do recommend

Such good food. The calzones are amazing. And the service is good!

A super nice place. Jasmine helped me, super friendly and helpful. Delicious food and at a very good price. Without a doubt a good place to eat.

Flavour was amazing! Both of our Penne portions were small for the price paid. Really nice ambience.

One of the best stone oven pizza in Vancouver. Great ambiance, amazing music and lovely staff!

Authentic Italian food that will not disappoint. Impeccable service, Ambiance was delightful. Live music as well Friday-Saturday 630-9:30pm. ! Perfect family restaurant!

We dined in, had great service and outstanding delicious pizza

Great place! Loved the pizza!! The owner and waitress were wonderful! Highly recommend!

The host/ waitress is so kind and attentive. The crust is homemade and so delicious. They also gave me homemade focaccia that was decadent. The music is soft but pop. I highly recommend. The service alone is worth the trip!

I came with my family for dinner on a Friday night. The service was great and super attentive. They had live music which really added to our dining experience. We ordered the prawns for an appetizer as well as a few of their pizzas which were great! The crust is amazing, you can really taste the difference with their wood burning oven. We got fresh focaccia without even asking which was lovely. Will come again :)

Perfect place to relax, amazing crew, especially Jasmin, professional and beautiful

Great food for the price. Meaty dishes and very tasty. Food

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Palermo Cucina, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The menu offers a fantastic selection of authentic Italian dishes. I started with the alfredo , which was perfectly seasoned and had a delightful crunch. For the main course, I chose the spaghetti, and it was simply divine creamy, rich, and cooked to perfection. The ingredients were fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced. The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring that every aspect of our meal was enjoyable. Overall, Palermo Cucina is a gem of an Italian restaurant, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Last night we came to this restaurant for our friends birthday and enjoyed the taste and quality of the food. The staff were very friendly and the management was excellent

The food here was absolutely amazing and so authentic!! our server jasmine was the greatest!! she was so kind and kept a smile on my face the whole visit. would definitely go back if i lived locally :)) 10/10 would recommend. jasmine is the best !!

Best service I have received in a very very very long time. Jasmine is amazing. So is the food.

We had a big party of 18 Everything was going so well I enjoyed the service and atmosphere Thank you for our an energetic server Yasmine jazzy I really recommend it here

I had a great time here The pizza so great I enjoyed our service Jasmine jazzy were doing great Lets come here for your party

The food was great and the service was excellent! Thanks to the staff! Kid-friendliness: It s a kid friendly environment Wheelchair accessibility: They accommodate for wheelchairs

He 5/5 stars! Fantastic food, cozy atmosphere, and friendly staff. Highly recommended for authentic Italian cuisine in Palermo. Cant wait to return! Food

This is one of my go to spots when they 1st opened up. Food was amazing! Its been a year or so since weve been back. Sadly, our expectations were below our usual experience standards. We usually get the: Calamari which today was bland, just breaded and deep fried with their spicy dipping sauce. Lamb pasta which had barely any lamb in it literally less than 80G of lamb and sauce was overly salty which killed any flavor. Last, we got a pesto chicken pizza which too wasnt up to the quality it used to be with the original owners. Before, the calamari was seasoned and tasted great, the lamb sauce was super flavorful with a nice portion of lamb on bone. Pizza crust was extra thin and bit soggy. I was sadly disappointed as I was excited to enjoy this meal. Even noticing that the prices have slightly gone up as well.

I ordered 2 meat lasagna one for my guest and myself the worst slop I ve ever eaten. Where was the pasta in the lasagna? It was all tomato sauce and ground meat. You couldn t even tell what it was supposed to be. It was so acidic I couldn t eat it! I d give a 0 star if I could. I ll never eat there again.

Cold beer, pizza was delicious but a bit soggy (Mediterranean pizza, lots of veggies...) Vegetarian options: Mediterranean pizza.

I have a unique experience with the pizza and calzone of this restaurant and the personality of the manager of this restaurant, whose name is Barzan.

Fresh pasta. Will go back.

Bad experience. Slow. Unattended. Didn t even had a chance to try the food, we left after 1hr waiting for the pizza that never came, and it was not a busy day. We were sitting in the patio and they forgot about us. We realize it after noticing everyone else inside , who arrived after us, had their dinners at their tables. We went inside and check with the server and manager and they said they were sorry. We left and not planning to coming back.

5 stars for food, Gnocchi & pesto chicken pasta were delicious. No complaints at all. The vibe is a little awkward, music played is lame & the restaurant was full of mosquitos & flys.

Best Italy cuisine for whole NORTH SHORE area!!!!!!! Enjoyed a lot!

Nice and cozy Italian restaurant, great customer service and Delicious pizza

By far, the best margarita pizza I have ever had. The dough is well-cooked and pizza sauce taste homemade with fresh ingredients. Such a peaceful atmosphere and amazing service. The restaurant itself is spotless and the washrooms are incredibly clean. You ll definitely see me here again.

Dear Barzan, I wanted to extend my deepest gratitude for your exceptional kindness and compassion in delivering the food order by yourself, to the young child in the palliative care unit of the Lions Gate Hospital. Your willingness to go above and beyond touched my heart profoundly. Your act of kindness not only brought comfort to the child but also immense gratitude from our entire family. Thank you for embodying such genuine care and empathy. Your gesture truly made a difference in our lives during this difficult time. With sincere appreciation, Mano

Delicious pizza, a calm and clean environment and the server was polite. The pizza bread was freshly baked and warm out of a wooden oven. Food

Chicken Parmesan was rubbery and tough. The marinara sauce wasnt very good. Pizza was burnt. Service was very good.

Everything we tried last night was excellent! Chicken Parm, chicken alfredo, Hawaiian pizza, tiramisu. So glad we found your restaurant! We come to North Van 3 times a year for about a week each time. Its a happy time when we discover a really great place to eat! Service was very good too, such friendly and accomodating people. We left feeling that our business was really appreciated and that the food they present is made with love.

The most traditional Italian kitchen you could find in Central Lonsdale! Parking: You can park behind another car in the parking lot, but you have to register with them. Food : 5/5 |

We went for dinner last night at Palermo Cucina and it was absolutely wonderful! The minute we walked through the door we could smell the pizza fire place and we received a warm welcome from behind the bar! Our server was exceptional, beautiful, kind, efficient and lovely, making our experience fantastic. We ordered 4 different pizzas and they were all delicious. We felt we were in Italy eating true Italian pizzas. We had such a nice relaxing evening, enjoying our best friends, with wonderful wine, and great food in a cosy clean atmosphere... I cant wait until we go again!

Unfortunately a very bad experience start to finish. We went for Valentine s Day and were really looking forward to it, as we were gifted a gift card a while back and have been wanting to visit for dinner for a while based on good reviews. We arrived at 6pm to beat the crowds - lucky we did because we observed MANY people having to wait for a long time even though they had a reservation as many walk ups were seated before reservations. We ordered starters and mains and asked for the starters to arrive before the mains. Shortly after, all dishes arrived at once and the servers gave us a blank stare without communicating to figure out how to shuffle the plates so they would fit the VERY small table. The food itself was average at best and we expected better for the price. As an example - I ordered caprese salad with a massive amount of arugula which wasn t edible as it tasted old. I usually love arugula. The pizza was undercooked in the center too unfortunately and getting salt from a server was impossible. The servers were very unorganized, not aware of their guests looking for help, not helping to clear tables and not checking in with guests. Multiple people ended up walking up to the bar and even into the kitchen to complain about incorrect orders, missing utensils, no one taking orders for a long time, etc. The servers were very rude amongst each other too - e.g. one of the servers rudely told a newly hired server that she doesn t care as it wasn t her table and all that in front of their guests. We weren t offered a dessert menu, but ordered the tiramisu. It took 20 minutes and 4 servers to get the tiramisu. To top it all off - when we got the bill, they wouldn t take the $100 gift card that we were gifted because apparently ownership changed (no apology given - btw the name of the restaurant hasn t changed, so business practice wise very questionable response). Additionally they at first wouldn t honour the pizza day deal that our first server proudly promoted to us. I had to argue with the manager for $4 until it was refunded to me after all. All in all - VERY unfortunate and poor experience. This once charming restaurant is now lacking authenticity, customer service and quality in our opinion. Maybe more quiet days are easier to manage for them

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Palermo Restaurant, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the warm ambiance to the delightful cuisine especially Eggplant parmesan and Calzones, every aspect of my visit left a positive impression. The staff at Palermo were incredibly welcoming and attentive throughout my meal. their knowledge of the menu helped guide me to some truly delicious choices.

Waitress kept making mistakes on our order. Got a well done steak after ordering medium rare. Didn t send it back because I was afraid I would leave without eating anything. Had to go to the bar to request our bill. Very disappointing on Valentine s Day.

Had a fantastic dinner experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was attentive and meticulous. I really recommend Palermo.

Delicious pastas and lasagna. We went here for dinner on a Friday and they had live music! Very pleasant atmosphere and service. Highly recommend for Italian on the North Shore.

One of the worst pizzas I ever had

For an authentic Italian dining experience, I highly recommend Palermo. Recently, I savored their delectable meatballs and Mediterranean pizza, both of which were outstanding. My Tuesday Pasta and Wednesday Pizza visits have become a ritual due to their exceptional specials. The pricing is reasonable, providing excellent value. The owner has crafted an atmosphere that genuinely transports you to Italy . A memorable and delightful choice for those seeking an authentic taste of Italy.

Amazing food and amazing staff! Lovely atmosphere with live music! Amazing experience, super lively. Perfect for a date night or a family get together. The whole place comes together with the music!

There were a lot of people. We asked the waitress who was up with our order. The owner came to bring us our pizza with apologies.

The chef there the bald guy provided the incorrect wait time deliberately while I was picking up a SkipTheDishes order from there and he was unapologetic about it. He said five minutes and it took more than 15 minutes. I only have a problem that if they can tell me the correct way time I can unassigned the order and pick up another order.

Visited a few times now. Now a favorite pizza spot in North Vancouver. Love the crust.

2.5% credit card surcharge was brutal to see after I paid. No mention prior from the server. Since credit card fees are already built into menu pricing, this is a brutal profit grab (i.e. there s no 2.5% decrease in pricing on all menu items, or an equal decrease if you pay by cash / debit card. NOTE: Even though credit card companies recently changed the rules permitting a surcharge, very few retailers have charged this fee as the credit card processing costs were already priced into retail prices. Otherwise, food, services and pricing were great.

Great food, pizza, pasta and service...

Food was delicious, service was excellent,and the atmosphere was fun. Live guitar player, filled with patrons, staff kept busy with everyone enjoying their experience. Nice night out.

It was very good and the owner was so nice. She tried her best to set at the table for us because it was Saturday night and the restaurant was fully booked.

Avoid. The decor is very outdated with this full brown setup. The place had a strange odour immediately from entering, the calzone was greasy and mostly just tasted like dough and overpowering garlic. Slow service.

Great food but terrible service. 45 min for water, 55 min for food, had to ask to light the candle 2 times, dessert without napkins and cutlery, had to pay on the way out as they were not coming.

This is a tough one for me as this was one of my very favourite places on the North Shore. Friday and Saturday Nights with live entertainment and great food made for a great night. Used to go weekly, invited multiple folks to try it and even thought about planning a family party there. A few months ago there was an ownership change. I had a couple of visits while the old owner was transitioning to the new group. The food was great but the service had already suffered. Poor timing with bringing entrees, lack of attention to the table. Had a couple of subpar visits with food that had gotten cold etc and decided to take a break and let new ownership work out the issues. Decided to go back after 4 months away. It was a complete gong show, understaffed, under trained staff, dirty floor, dirty menus and the food has slipped so badly. The Spaghetti Bolognese reminded me of boil in the bag spaghetti from the frozen food aisle, overcooked Calamari starter and just no sense of service. No offer of pepper or cheese, poor presentation, and too pricy for this sort of experience . No inquiries on how the food was. I feel bad because I think the new owner is trying very hard but clearly out of her element. For now, Ill look to go somewhere else for Italian on the North Shore.

Another great Italian place on Lonsdale. These guys have stepped their game up since opening. We visited again last night and I was impressed. The dining area is cozy and well taken care of. I feel like the oven fired pizza I had is definitely one of the better ones in the area. The meat in the other dishes we ordered was cooked nicely and wasnt dried out. The tomato sauce on our pasta dishes was great. They use regular dried pasta here in the dishes weve tried and it was cooked perfectly al dente in each one. Service here is friendly. This is a great family spot. There is plenty of accessible parking in the area and since the restaurant is on the ground floor, people with wheelchairs will make it in here just fine. This is a classic restaurant feel which is appreciated. There are no big TVs everywhere playing a myriad of sports or etc. Just an old school casual family dining experience. There is live music on the weekends. Ive heard it outside from the block, walking by. It was not hard to call and easily get a reservation the day we wanted to visit. On the weekend evenings it can get a little busier here, so its wise to plan ahead if you can. I am actually looking forward to our next visit. The menu looks great and the prices are respectable and fair for the portion sizes you get. Great local spot in a great walking neighborhood. I feel like you get excellent value for your bill here. Dietary restrictions: The staff here are attentive and will do their best to accomodate your dietary needs. Wheelchair accessibility: The entire dining area is on the ground floor with plenty of space to maneuver around. There is also a wheelchair accessible bathroom that is well maintained.

Excellent authentic pizza in nice unpretentious setting. Great prices. Friendly helpful staff. Great new alternative to the over priced pizza places on the North Shore. Will definitely be back to try the pasta options.

The food and service both have room for improvement. We ordered a pizza and pasta. The fungi pasta was a miss. The pasta was over cooked and the sauce was over seasoned. The pizza was good, but nothing to rave about. The service was disorganized and inconsistent. The best part of the dinner was the live music which was great.

I came here to support a friend who was playing music for a fundraiser. I had booked a reservation over the phone for a table for 4 at 7pm. I arrived early but i had mentioned at least 3 times that I had others joining me. We waited for 30 mins to then be told that we had to wait for another table to open up. Luckily, a friend of mine moved herself to the bar with her boyfriend so we could take their table. So 3 of us squeezed into a 2 person table and told my other friend that we didn t have room for her at our table. After waiting awhile for our drinks, my friends boyfriend decided to just leave at this point as it was uncomfortable and taking too long. After being sat down for awhile, the manager eventually came over to tell us that she had burnt her hand that day and misplaced my reservation? Seemed odd and unapologetic. Luckily our server was great and got our order through shortly after. After a long wait, the food came and it was honestly just OK. After we had eaten, we were then offered a free dessert for the situation. It seemed a bit like an after thought. Overall, I was not impressed with the food or the service. I left feeling dissatisfied and I don t see myself recommending this place.

First time at Palmeros. The food was yummy. I came for a fundraiser and was so impressed with the vibe and overall experience.

Great place to hold an event

Loved the pizzas. The crust was thin but not too thin. The toppings were great too, fresh and tasty. Both pizzas we ordered were 10/10. Thanks palermo cucina!!

Very delicious food and service is great

Lovely restaurant, fantastic vibe , delicious meal with nice design I highly recommend

I visited The Italian palermo last week for the first time and it was very surprising. , the ambience, the staff and the food inside are mesmerizing! Our experience began with a very friendly and polite hostess that asked us about our day and showed lots of care towards us. After presented the table our server was there shortly and made sure we had the menu figured out: you gotta choose the pasta and sauce you want, basically matching them. We decided to go with the alfresco and the steak, both AMAZING dishes. definitely coming back!! 10/10

Wheelchair accessibility: Very good restuarant

Enjoy the outside patio, Caesar Salad are fresh and the bread are crispy and just the way it should be, Pizza are really great, juicy source with wood baked pizza

what an incredible dining experience! all the food was amazing. I ate pizza it was so delicious the restaurant had a great vibe and the service was excellent i highly recommend this restaurant..

Cozy and calm and attentive staff Prices are good Tiramisu was good.

Super friendly staff and a genuine fire bake oven for pizzas. Must try place

Server was on her game. Pizzas were done to perfection, although slow in coming out, which is my only complaint! Would go back again! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pizza/ salads

Open kitchen. Perfect Mushroom Risotto, Calzone and Panna Cotta. Efficient and attentive service. Great ambience.

I was waiting more than half hour for my order.

The food was amazing and the servers were super nice i really enjoyed sitting there and would definitely go back

The lasagna is amazing!

This place is GREAT !! Me and my family tired this restaurant yesterday night , we ordered pesto chicken pasta, chicken Alfredo, classic pepperoni, and tiramisu it was amazing I loved how it tasted, the service was also really good I m definitely trying this place again Thank you for your great atmosphere Palermo

After new owner bought it last year this place is my favourite place to go for pizza and live music.

Amazing delicious food! I had the gnocchi Excellent service. Great vibes Food : 5/5

My go-to for pizza in North Van. The pasta is excellent, and the wine is priced reasonably.

Great food and service . we had pasta dishes which were excellent. Cant wait to try the pizza. Thank you to our waitress who was kind to us even though we just made it there when they were closing the kitchen. Food

food was good service was excellent

Loved it! And the band was AMAZING! Especially the Rose between the two thorns!

We had a lovely dinner outside on their patio which was nice, but I would have to say that the waitress we had was a little cold & not very knowledgeable about the menu when one of our guests had a question. The pizza was great but there was a debate about whether or not the lamb was actually lamb and not beef. Overall I would give the restaurant a good 7 out of 10.

i went here for dinner with my brother and the pizza was absolutely amazing! the crust was so thin and the waiter was super quick and very kind! best pizza ive ever had

Its a really nice place. You feel like eating at a restaurant in Italy. The atmosphere is very nice, the food is exquisite and the service very attentive and kind. Loved the Capricciosa pizza and the Palermo house Red wine, a great Red wine house. Thank you!

Pizza was good quality but I was disappointed in the cheese/tomato ratio. Did not fancy spending $5 for extra cheese unfortunately as felt that was a little expensive. Everyone has different preferences though.

Pricy food with mediocre and subpar taste. Cocktails were badly mixed and tasted watery. Good thing was waitresses (blond one) customer service. Tipped because of her good attitude. Unfortunately can not recommend.

They use quality fresh ingredients. Happy to have come back here.

Ordered on door dash, chicken Parmesan s chicken was sooooo salty it was not consumable!!! Pasta wasn t terrible, but It seems like they store their chicken in salted water or something, the salt was seeped into the chicken, almost wanted to rinse it with water. Very disappointed, $60 for 2 orders or chicken Parmesan where the chicken was not eatable is not cool!!!!! I m pissed! I could have cooked the chicken better and I m a terrible cook! Fire your chef!!

Calzone and 4 cheese pizzas were delicious!

I have been to Italy and the pizza is authentic! The brick oven creates a cozy atmosphere and the food is delicious. I had a pizza and my husband had a calzone, we loved both. Lots of cheese and meat in the calzone. The tiramisu was the perfect tasty treat!

We ordered take out meat lasagna that was cold, no noodles and over salted. We asked to add meatballs and they were almost the same price as the main entree. We as well ordered Caesar salad which was just lettuce leafs with a couple croutons and some Caesar dressing to put on the big lettuce leafs. The total meal cost double what you would pay anywhere else, very disappointing as the meal was inedible.

The food there was amazing. The live music was really good. The waiters were really nice. I had a really good time there

Must-try Margherita pizza here! The thin, soft, and stretchy dough is topped with a well-balanced tomato-based sauce that combines sweetness and tanginess, along with delectable mozzarella cheese. Fresh and sweet chunks of tomato and fragrant basil leaves complete the delicious ensemble. Just out of the wood-fired oven, its aroma and taste are delightful. Their pasta is pure heaven too. I tried the spaghetti and meatballs, which offers a perfect combination of meaty flavor with a sweet and tangy tomato sauce, served over perfectly cooked spaghetti. Their Linguini Vongole, Tagliatelle Funghi, Bolognese Pasta, and Meat Lasagna were awesome as well! They boast a wide selection of local and imported drinks, and this is one of the very few restaurants in the Lower Mainland that serves Italian beer Peroni on draft.

Waited over 45 minutes for 2 pizzas to get ready on a not-so-busy night, they never did, so we left. Do not recommend at all

Poor service. And the pizza was mids

Excellent staff and service

The place and food are very pleasant.

I had a fantastic experience celebrating my friends birthday at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was top-notch. Our entire group was impressed with the quality of the dishes and the attentiveness of the staff. It truly made the birthday celebration memorable. We cant wait to come back and dine here again. Highly recommended!

Great serive and quality food. Prices are reasonable for this location and there is a parking available in the back. Highly recommend it.

We had an exceptional dining experience at Palermo cucina. The ambiance was inviting, and the staff were attentive. The Spaghetti & meatballs and Capricciosa Pizza were a flavor burst. The recommended red wine was a perfect match. The Tiramisu for dessert was heavenly. I highly recommend Palermo cucina for an authentic Italian culinary journey.

Very nice place and the food is great!

Best Italian cuisine in north vancouver. If you re looking for some cozy place with great amount of food that s a good one. You re gonna enjoy the sun rays around golden hour.

Excellent, I recommend it.

It was okay

Took my date to have pizza here. I walked by this restaurant a number of times in the past, but this was my first visit. Live music on this Friday night with a gentleman playing wonderful tunes like the Beatles and playing guitar. Our server was wonderful. Pizza is the what fashion wood fire type. All in all, had a great time here and would definitely go back

Pizza toppings falling off but the service was good

Great gem in North van. Very traditional

We walked in 50 minutes before closing What I noticed they weren t very impressed about it , we did put our order fast, orders came with nothing on the table . As most Italian restaurants minimum the will put bread and butter on the table, a salad with the main meal is very usual thing. I ve been in many Italian restaurants they go as far as putting olives and pickles before the meal get there. I had my chicken parmigiana with a cup of pasta and that s it,, food is very average for an Italian test,, there sauce doesn t relate to an Italian sauce. will not recommend this place. Will not go again.

The food was so good and the staff were so friendly we really enjoyed yhe place,would definitely go back

I had a dinner with my family last night. Great service and food, highly recommended

Fantastic hospitality and the most delicious food Ive ever had. I do recommed their rigatoni sausage rago. Yummmmmmmiiiiiii

recently organized a celebrity-themed birthday party for my son, and we were thrilled with our choice because it will create lasting memories for our family. I suggested serving chicken parmesan and a variety of delicious drinks. Kid-friendliness: Very kind and great servers for kids

I was very satisfied with delicious food and a friendly environment, thank you

My favorite pizza in Londsdale

Went on a Friday night. Live music -which was good. Food was good. We enjoyed our visit , and would return. It was my first visit, and it was a busy Friday night, but I would warn people its very noisy. I didnt have to shout but I had to raise my voice alot so the person across the table could hear me. The server got my order wrong because she couldnt hear me talking to her. Also I finished my beer and had to wait a long time , and I finally had to flag down a server to finally get a refill, which was not that big a deal but it did bother me a bit. So if youd like a quiet intimate meal go to Bravo down the hill. However if you want lively atmosphere, this is the place!

I had a private party there, food was great, servers were so nice and everything went great.

The live music at Palermo Cucina really set the perfect atmosphere. The food and service were absolutely amazing too! Highly recommend it!

As always a pleasure to come to this place. The food, the crew, the place and music on weekends! A must go if you around north Vancouver! Today Michaela took well care of our table and we all enjoyed so much her attitude

The first couple of times I went I had pizza, which was good, but last time I had the lamb chops and they were excellent. Nice to have live music too

Food was mediocre at best. Pizza was small. Margarita pizza had fresh tomato and no red pizza sauce? The server tried to short change me once I paid, twice! Definitely would not recommend.

Best calamari on the north shore

It was a magical experience, they made a normal Wednesday night into a Night to remember. Their pizzas are amazing, specially capricissa one, the first thing youll notice when you enter is the ambiance and a beautiful smell of wood from the pizza oven, Highly recommended to come with friends or in a date. Tiramisu is to die for! Great server, great presentation, great everything

One of the most delicious pizza Kelly gave us one of unforgettable service

We went with our family of 4 and we ordered a pizza and some pastas. Both tasting great and I highly recommend.

Very well respected and also good food

The food was phenomenal and so was the service! I have severe food allergies and they took really good care of me!

Parking: I found parking right away Food

Food is very bad. Go to any other Italian restaurant in the area.

I was very deceptive of the service, my family and I used to visit the restaurant weekly to enjoy the good pizza but then the restaurant changed the services and stopped accepting pets in outside areas and the waitress was so Ruud with us because we wanted to have dinner with our pet.

We made a reservation for a group lunch several days prior to date selected and received a call only (1) hr before our reservation time from Palermo telling me that they had the restaurant booked for an event during my reservation time and that they could no longer accommodate our Group. The lady noted that she had called multiple times to advise us of this but never once left a voice message. Our group has members that were coming in from different areas in the GVA and this left us scattering to find another location for our lunch at the last minute. Extremely disappointed and will avoid making future reservations at their restaurant moving forward.

Service was terrible. Waited 1 hour to order food, and took another hour to receive. People who entered after us and ordered much after us were receiving their food first. We ordered one pizza and two plates of pasta. All the dishes were brought to us at different times. Apart from the service the food was good though which is a shame.

Excellent ownership and management. Food is always consistent. Highly recommend.

This is one of the cutest places on Lonsdale for a nice Italian dish. We had the classic pizza and the mushroom pasta for dinner. My favorite was the clams for appetizer. Absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is very calm and the interior design is delightful. I think the service can be a little faster and more elaborate. But overall, a great experience!

The music was good. Service was okay, theres room for improvement, but they try. The food is very tasty and a decent wine list. They could use a floor manager to organize the waiters.

I came today, Sunday, Oct 16th, at 5:30pm with my friends from a hike so really hungry and ordered 3 pizzas and a risotto fungi. The restaurant was empty except for the patio customers. 45 mins later, the place is full and 3-4 customers got their food; none for us. Complained and asked why that is so and what happened to our order. The server said hell look into it but no explanation was given. Our order was then expedited and we got our food in another 10-15 mins. It was delicious despite the pizza being a little burned at the crusts (having been rushed). In the end, the lady server apologized and gave us tiramisu, free of charge. For whilst we accept the apology in the end all we needed was an ownership of the mistake instead of a white lie that the server is still training which isnt the case.

hello today I came and ate calzone, unfortunately it was very bad, salty and without content, and I have to give you a review.

They have amazing pizza. It s a nice place with a live music. Barzan is the only chef that makes such a amazing pizzas.

Really nice place with amazing food. I had a salsicia pizza , and its a best pizza i ever had. Good servise.

Service has room to improve, food is ok, good portions size for $$$ price, wait for long time for a waiter to walk around, over all was ok, but what make the date was the live music great singer taking request. just top notch, end up even dancing!!! with a guest lady, did not know his name but he was classy and super entertaining definitely will come back soon. Parking: Parking kind of challenging

Delicious food and fair prices!!!

Food was ok for the price, great entertainment but not consistent, last Friday night very talented singer Gustavo sang a special happy birthday for our table...... no way to tip him......., this Friday!! ....... he is not performing and has no idea when he is coming back...... no consistent, not good. Anyway will come back to check it out,

Fantastic Ceasar salad, pizza and pasta!

This small, friendly Italian spot has become one of our favourite casual dining choices here on the north shore. The food is consistently good: everything from the deep fried calamari and clam appetizers to the rib-sticking pappardelle lamb ragu, unctuous eggplant and light, delicious tiramisu. And the broad variety of traditional Neapolitan pizzas from the wood fired oven more than hold their own against some of the bigger Italian restaurants that have moved into the area. It is also the only local venue offering live music on weekends. But be warned. We went early on a Friday night to meet friends and the place was hopping. If you want to chat over dinner - I recommend you avoid the music. We couldn t hear ourselves talk. The space seems pretty small for mikes and amplifiers: the predominantly older crowd would probably prefer acoustic guitars. However, it obviously has its following because reservations were needed. Other than that, we would highly recommend Palermo for great food and service from a lovely front of house team.

Excellent food, service, atmosphere but a little noisy. Parking: Street parking Food : 5/5 |

Love their pizzas and the Caesar salad is amazing! Great attentive service! Good value for the happy hour pizzas! Thank you! Vegetarian options: The Greek pizza is a tasty vegetarian option! Parking: Always street parking nearby

Great atmosfere with best service

Awesome pizzas, and the live music on the weekend is great! Have been here multiple times and it s a go to spot for me

Food was great sevice is amazing

Under an excelent new management this place is skyrocketing it service, food quality and entertainment atmosphere, yesterday I had Chicken Parmegiana with pomodoro sauce, it was just fantastic, this is a perfect spot to for romantic dinner. If you are around North Vancouver, this is a must !!! Definitely I will come, over and over again.

I dont like pizza at all, the long waiting time to order. The waitress doesnt care about you.

Overall experience was average. I would not recommend this place. Three pastas came out in good time, however we waited 9 minutes for the fourth pasta. One of our guests were finished their meal by the time the last pasta showed up not ideal for a fun dining experience. We had to ask if bread came with the table, and server was like ohhh right yeah We were barely offered an apology, and we had to ask for a discount on the fourth pasta. Do not recommend getting the lasagna. Maybe a few extra staff on would solve this problem.. or just better customer service.

Food was very good! But very salty. Ask for food to be made with less salt

We went here for a family lunch, my husbands family being Italian. Food was ok. I guess Im not a fan of traditional oven baked pizzas my Hawaiian pizza had loads of pineapple and ham which was good, but barely any cheese at all, and the thin crust was practically raw and undercooked and the crust burnt. Definitely wouldnt order again. I ate it to be polite.. Calamari was good, but I dont love it with marinara sauce.. Im a tzatziki fan! (Yes I know I was at an Italian restaurant not a Greek. - as my pretentious Italian husband reminded me) I pointed out that almost all restaurants serve it with tzatziki because IT TASTES BETTER! My kids had spaghetti and meatballs, pretty good. Not spectacular.... Out of the three things I ate while there, I wouldnt order any of them again. Ambiance was lovely and the staff were absolutely wonderful! My 3 year old was a bit loud and wandering around touching everything so points for their patience and understanding I also loved that they had white claws on the drink menu! Overall we had a great family meal, Im probably just really picky and hard to please. That being said, I could eat Wendys spicy chicken snack wraps for the rest of my life and be happy. Parking was a nightmare! I had to leave the restaurant and move my vehicle because all I could find was one hour street parking. But I guess thats North Van. At least its still free!

Ordered on Uber eats, delivery time kept getting pushed later and later. Finally the driver called me to tell me they were parked outside the restaurant and it was closed ..

The new owner is very kind, great atmosphere, reasonable prices. Totally recommended
