Le Palerme sur Arras

10/06/2026: Friendly staff and good Italian food.

07/06/2026: Discovering this place, which recently took over. The welcome was courteous, although the question "Did we make a reservation?" felt a bit patronizing... surprising... The waitress who burst out of her office like a whirlwind was equally unexpected, the plate with the warning "careful, it's hot" placed directly on the napkin (so I was going to burn my fingers?), the lingering smell of sweat that practically allowed you to follow the second waiter's trail, the toilet door desperately left open to the dining room—all of this reeked of neglect. The food itself was decent. The bread had clearly seen better days, as it was half-dried. And unfortunately, the appetizing apricot-rosemary coulis panna cotta was replaced by a red fruit coulis topped with a slice of orange—spot the mistake... In short, a place offering fairly good value for money but lacking in maturity. Worth revisiting in a while to try the terrace.
