My first visit to Palermo was fantastic! We went for a birthday celebration. The wait staff were excellent - great knowledge of the menu and wine selection, as well as super friendly. The food was truly delicious Argentinian. The restaurant is bigger than it looks from the street, but very cosy and intimate at the same time. An excellent choice for a special night out!

Food was portioned, well prepared and came with easy to follow instructions. Kudos to the Palermo staff for making sure some missing ingredients were delivered promptly within hours so that we could enjoy the food that evening. They went above and beyond to ensure we were happy and set to enjoy the meal.
I went there with work mates on a Friday night and loved it so much I went back the following week with my husband. The food is delicious, roasted pork is magnificent and so tender. The quality of all the meats left us wanting more, and as its a share menu, we really enjoyed the variety of the other dishes too. Really helpful staff, they guide you with the menu and take care to ensure you have a great experience. Exceptional restaurant in a city filled with many restaurants.
Fantastic and friendly team at Palermo. The T bone and lamb were incredible with a malbec. A few of their cocktails didn't hurt either. We'll definitely be back!
Great atmosphere perfect for a work event, Friday night dinner or date night. Very delicious. All covid safe. Drinks are amazing. The eye fillet is to die for. Serving sizes are small. 4 pieces of steak for 3. Order more then you normally would. Parking all around very close to Bourke St.
Three for potential! The ambience is very pleasurable and the wait staff are polite. The drinks and cocktails on offer are also wonderfully paired with the type of food on offer. Although the menu wasn't authentically Argentinian (more of a European take on it!) However, my biggest disappointment came in with how much food was served for a table of 10 people. It was a given that the menu would be a sharing menu, but in no way did we think that only two sides of salads would be served between the whole table. Barring one of us every one ate meat and fish and so between 9 people - there were only four servings of Ceviche. The straw that broke the camels back was when four plates of dessert came out to be shared - this definitely did not go down well with the dinner party and even when we tried to make the person in charge understand, he - besides quoting the t&c's and what's what - didn't quite seem to understand how that isn't a fair reflection of sharing (with respect to the food on offer). We have dined out in multiple restaurants before and the sides and the entrees are shared however even if it is a set menu the mains and dessert are always a single portion (albeit smaller given the sharing concept). This however could not be understood by the restaurant staff and one had to assert that kindly take it as a feedback!! And beyond that nothing else was done to ensure that we didn't leave with a sour taste in our mouth. For 90 pp, before visiting, one might want to think on the broad and unconventional definition of a set sharing menu. Three stars because it still has potential!
Food, service and vibe were all perfect. This has got to be the nicest restaurant I have been to. Everything was absolutely on point (especially the useful, polite and kind waiters). The whole set menu was DELICIOUS. Will definitely come back and recommend!
Decided to visit Palermo on a Thursday night after trying out their menu via Providoor back last year during peak COVID which was superb. We got lucky with a last minute booking and can not fault their immaculate service. The girl who looked after us was very lovely, attentive and guided us through the extensive menu. Must haves when visiting Palermo include their lamb arancini, T-bone steak (on special), crispy papas and dulce de leche flan. Definitely now added to my list of favourite places to dine in Melbourne!
