We went to Palermo for dinner and we were blown away with the flavours, the atmosphere, the music, the wine and specially the service. Our waiter Luke was very nice and efficient as well as Brooke. Thanks Palermo for the awesome experience, we will definitely be returning. 100% Recommended !!!

We were 8 people and a last minute booking. Very welcoming with bubbly attentative service. We had a set menu with each dish so full of flavour and just amazing. The meat was the best around and we left feeling very happy with our dinner experience. Thank you Palermo, we will return!
One of our favourite restaurants! Love everything from the menu to the service. Can’t wait till you reopen!
Got put onto Palermo when i failed to book a seat and their sister restaurant San Telmo.
After dining at San Telmo for several years i found the food experience on par, which is excellent.
Had the tartar beef, steak special, burnt carrots, potatoes, chicken, all yum.
I think the service was actually better than San Telmo, with the waiter very helpful in explaining everything.
Restaurant was only half full on a Friday afternoon, which is a long shot from San Telmo.
Highly recommend!
The eye fillet steak was tender melt in your mouth with such a delicious chargrilled taste that adding anything to it was a sin. Did not disappoint, I was in meat heaven.

My friend and I ate here at the end of last year, and had no problem getting a table. Service was amazing as soon as we walked in: friendly but not invasive, and really efficient. Food recommendations were given easily when we felt overwhelmed by the incredible menu. We started with two corn and cheese empanadas, and had the slow cooked beef with a side of lechugas and papas. Salsa and peri peri sauce were served with the beef, and it was INCREDIBLE! Melt-in-your-mouth, absolutely-to-die-for flavour. We loved it. The sides were fantastic as well. When in Argentina, we opted for the malbec, which topped off an already beautiful meal. The decor, service and food just can't be beat here. Absolutely wonderful experience. Thank you!
Absolutely stunning ambience, amazing food and great customer service! We had a wonderful 1st dining experience at Palermo, especially with their shared menu. Stand outs include: empanadas, papas potatoes, t-bone & flan. We also had for sides the meat platter, broccolini, octopus, oysters, arancini and pumpkin.
Excellent option to try South American cuisine. The food is very tasty and innovative. The meat option are great but I would ensure you try the fish as well.
One of the best meat house I’ve been too, the service was on point. Food was full of flavours, the meat was cook perfectly. Would come back here again !
Went here for dinner with friends. My goodness this place is Amazing! We shared a selection of South American dishes, Wine & enjoyed a high quality service from the staff.
Will definitely return.
My new favourite place in the city! Went here on a whim as we were passing it and it seemed intriguing. I've actually been to San Telmo its sibling restaurant before but I was more impressed by Parlermo.
Price
Food is on the pricier side, but every dish we had was really tasty!
Staff
Really attentive and great when asked about dietary needs too.
Favourite dish
Whilst the savoury food was amazing, I actually loved the desserts so much! Personal favourite is the tiramisu- a great mix of Italian and Argentinain flavours.
Ambience
Perfect for a date night. It's got dim light, comfy chairs and nice deco with an Argentinian theme.
Really good steak! We ordered the beef empanadas and provolone cheese to start with. Both delicious and full of flavour. For mains we ordered the beef short ribs, skirt steak, potatoes and broccolini as the sides. The steak was cooked perfectly and melts in your mouth. There was chimmichurri on the tables to serve with but the steak was good even on its own. Highly recommend.
I have never been to a restaurant where the staff is so courteous and conscious about the perfection of the food and willing go above and beyond to offer free food when the food is not cooked to perfection. Needless to say that every food item was perfectly cooked, with the right balance of sides. An excellent collection of wine to go along with each dish. Then flan in the dessert was the highlight. A spectacular place to be.
I have found a new place to add to my favourites. Everything was spot on. Food was incredible - all dishes I had were mouthwatering but my top pick would be the tartar, the lamb and the potatoes. The mood - not too bright or dark, not too loud with the music. The service was also fantastic. I will definitely be returning and recommending.
Wonderful service, excellent dietary accommodations. The veg and sides were phenomenal. Unfortunately the dry aged cuts had run out by the end of the evening, and the special was good but not terribly memorable. Very reasonably priced, solid execution, but unfortunately the meat was not at the level we were hoping for.
Just booked that primo packages to celebrate my love one's birthday tonight and everything was fully satisfy.
Good ambience and super friendly staff, they explained their menu and meal patience to us, since we're not that good on English listening.
Also, I was unexpected drunk and feel like my stomach up side down during appetizers.
But their main course was so tasty, specially that crispy pork skin bring me back to the mood and I can continue my dinner.
Overall, everything was perfect. Except that grilled provolone cheese was little too chewy for us, it gonna be great if we could have some bread things to help us swallow easier.
Great food and service too! We were very looked after. Food came promptly not much waiting between. Everything was well cooked and flavoured. Lovely setting make sure you do organise ahead to book a table. Desserts - the flan was a great highlight!
I mean Wow. Very good experience. The food was cooked to perfection and it was top quality and fresh. Service was fast and friendly. It s highly highly recommend. I have 2 criticism: 1- the meat selection is a little limited 2- the meet prices are a little rich compared to some of the other great steak hosues in Melbourne. That being said i will return 100% any time i get the chance 👌
It's a nice fine restaurant with several beautiful signature dishes. The appetizer pan grilled cheese is crispy at top and soft at the bottom. The charcoal grilled scotch fillet is the best steak ever. The onion aioli for the fried potato is so smooth.
My wife and daughter are satisfied for their birthday celebration. Thank you very much.
By far my favourite restaurant in Melbourne. The food is made on open fire, which gives it that “oh damn! that is good” taste. I would highly recommend the set menus and then add to it if there is something else you would like to try.
