We decided to stay in tonight for NYE. I called to place an order to pick up a cheese lovers calzone and a cheese lovers pizza. They said they were pizza (made sense since it was NYE) and I waited to pick it up. Now, I'm born and raised in the Bx, NY. Home of the best pizza in the world. The pizza here at Palermo's is good. Too thick for me; but they have a nice flavor profile in the sauce. I'm sure the pie is even better fresh out of the oven. The cheese lovers calzone tasted even better. My only issue with that, was the crust was too thin. They mixed the two up. Haha. They could have put two containers of sauce in the box with the calzone so if you order it to take home ask for the extra sauce. I look forward to going back and dining in. Eating the pie fresh out of the oven and some of their other dishes as well. Definitely recommend. read more

I stumbled on a "Be Our Guest" deal and jumped on it even though the restaurant is a good distance from us. Fortunately, our grandson had a soccer game in LaGrange and that put us right where we needed to be. First impression? Waite staff was wearing white shirts and black slacks. This ain't Fazoli's. Our waiter, Robert, took our drink order and brought us freshly backed cheese bread served with a side of marinara. The bread was excellent (almost too good) and the marinara was full flavored without the heavy sweetness so many sauces rely on. My wife ordered cheese ravioli and I went with an Italian meatball calzone. Both dishes were beautifully plated. The Stromboli was almost intimidating, so I immediately split it in two knowing half was heading home. My wife couldn't finish her serving of ravioli. The ravioli was well filled and the sauce was outstanding. My Stromboli was heavy on the melted cheese to the point it was difficult to find the meatballs. But what really stood out,aside from flavor and sauce (on the side) was the dough. Light, just the right amount of crisp without reminding you of a burnt pizza crust. Service was outstanding. Robert was attentive without being obtrusive. Pricing is reasonable, with a nice mix of prices for any budget. Palermo's is upscale dining at modest prices and well worth a visit. read more

Palermo's seems to get better each time we go back. The menu was updated tonight which forced me to get something different...kinda. Tonight I had the Veal Parmigiana and added eggplant, it was amazing. I haven't had anything here that I haven't completely enjoyed and recommend this place to anyone to try. read more

Got off to a great start when the teenager hostess was visibly annoyed when we requested to not sit at the 2top right in front of the door in February. After explaining "well you're gonna have to wait I guess," which we were happy to do, we were seated next to a family of 4 at a 6-top, so grateful we weren't asking for any special treatment. As we expressed our thanks, not another word was heard from our hostess. No water, no bread service.. Not necessarily the restaurant's fault, but kids on tablets at full volume and speaker phone calls - societal point, but very apparent with this restaurant's very open layout, as was the cold breeze every time someone opened the front door. We waited for about 20 minutes for our very busy waitress to greet us. She was very apologetic about our wait and took drink and appetizer order, said she'd bring water and bread. This was at 6:40 (evidenced by receipt). She was the only one we saw working tables, this place has about 15 total. The hostess had seated a few more tables, but we didn't see her helping at all - 10 minutes here come drinks- (waitress: "sorry, water/bread, so sorry). 10 more minutes - artichoke dip! And we got to place our order! Dip was pretty good- but half the toast was unbuttered, intentional, or foreshadowing? The people behind us that were sitting with ToGo boxes since we arrive appear to be paying. They were waiting the whole time, and our waitress appeared to be sorting out some issue with the back. A little over 1hr after our arrival, 7:24 (I looked) - finally get our food, Stromboli and a margarita pizza. But still no water (waitress, "my bad I forgot"). The pizza is a sad mess of browned sauce and not all the slices have cheese and basil- a single slice is all it takes to know it's not worth trying any more or taking home. The Stromboli crust is done nicely, golden brown, but the filling is ice cold- like the salami, pepperoni, sauce and sausage was right out the freezer and barely thawed by the time the crust was done in the oven. The cheese was barely melted and could still see the individual shreds clumped together. I briefly considered take home- very briefly. About 5 more minutes here comes the water, which was just long enough for us to make the unfortunate discoveries described above for us to make our final requests of the evening, to settle up and speak to the owner. Our very exasperated waitress' voice is cracking as we're describing the food issue. She is very apologetic and trying to explain. We tell her that we have recognized she is running around. She was trying to offer fixing it, but this meal and experience was beyond repair. We could tell that this waitress was concerned this coming back on her. Our request to speak to the owner was less about the food and more to ensure this waitress was recognized and not reprimanded. We requested to speak with the owner, Carlos, who we were told was in the kitchen. He however chose not to come to speak with us but another identifying as a manager does. We had seen her a few times at the other tables. But not as much as I would presume a front house manager to be if their staff is running around and things are that delayed. She is verbally apologetic, but proceeds to excuse the hostess as "the youngest one here," or that the "kitchen staff is new." - offered no accountability- and no reason why the owner wasn't standing there (at this point I saw no table without food) We understand that restaurants are busy and there can be delays, but this was self-generated chaos from poor leadership, resulting in poor service, bad food, and a sour experience - I absolutely love Stromboli, but I don't think I could be convinced to give this place another shot. read more

The food is delicious I love coming here when I'm craving pasta and the service and people are great they get the food out fast, have great attitude, and are really good at refilling refreshments and bringing out more bread. The ambiance of the place is great but I do wish the had booths because the chairs do make a very loud noise when pushing them in or scooting them out and I think booths are more comfortable but overall I love this place and go back as much as I can! read more

The food is only so-so. The pizza is their best dish and I do not qualify that as "Italian". The service is good and the ambiance is nice.

It was our first time at Palermo's and it was fantastic. A very warm, cozy, and inviting environment. The Seafood Fettuccine and Fettuccine Alfredo were amazing! The service was excellent. We will definitely be going back. read more

December the 10th we ordered a pizza. I ate one piece and then started a second piece and found what appears to be a piece of stainless steel from a scrub pad sticking out of the pizza crust. I got another piece and half way through I felt something in my mouth. It was another steel scrub piece. I was done at that point. Threw the pizza away and tried for two days to talk to a manager. Evidently he is never there so I'm making this review to warn people!! read more

I loved this place! Portions were huge and delicious! Service was spot on. It's not easy to find a good Italian restaurant these days. Palermo's was a sigh of relief. Nicely decorated as well! read more

Overall, Palermo's is good and reasonably priced. The food is MUCH better than Olive Garden's. The bread that's brought to the table is delicious. Unfortunately, the oil at the table isn't EVOO; it tastes like salad oil. The service has always been good. When we want Italian but don't feel like driving to Martini's, Palermos is the place to be. read more

I think this restaurant has been open for about a year but for some reason I had not visited it before. I went for a late lunch yesterday and it was outstanding! The marinara sauce was great, the eggplant parmigiana was excellent and my companion's meal was great. We ordered conservatively since we didn't know the quality but will be more adventurous next time. The table next to ours was having the lamb chops and cannoli and it looked mouthwatering. I will try that next time. read more

The food is nothing significant. It's equivalent to something canned or frozen. My family of 4 ate there, 2 kids, 2 adults and it was $75. It's a little pricey for what it is. I had gnocchi with what appeared to be boiled chicken. My husband had chicken Alfredo, it was the same sauce and boiled Chicken just a different pasta. There was no flavor at all. The service was good. read more

New restaurant in La Grange so we had to check it out. I had read the prior comments and they have definitely taken notes. The staff was prompt and pleasant from start to finish. The classic meat lasagna has a great read sauce and is very cheesy. You won't be hungry after eating this. My husband added the broccoli as a side and said it was a 4/5. It tasted good but was just slightly overcooked. We will be back when we are craving Italian. Only reason it wasn't a 5 is that they were out of the veal but I will try next time. read more

Palermo's has been a welcome addition to Oldham Co. Service has ranged from "okay" to "great." One visit we had an issue with a dish (severely overcooked veal), but it was immediately corrected and the replacement dish was perfect. The marinara is wonderful - I don't know if it is homemade but it sure tastes like it. The menu is plentiful and we try something new every time we go. The calzones are pretty large! Definitely big enough to share. read more

The food was absolutely delicious and was served quickly. I did find my chicken a little bland a didn't feel it was quite the Italian portion of pasta I'm used to but it was still a very good meal. The atmosphere here is very welcoming and I enjoyed the low lighting. read more

Lovely service. Food was good. Salad was very fresh and flavorful. My party had lasagna, seafood Alfredo, and manicotti and we were all happy. read more

Food is like Olive Garden. Veal was deep fried; should be pan fried. Pizza looked good . Portions of protein are small & plate is made up of mostly pasta. Lighting is too bright for a sit down restaurant, especially for dinner. read more

Food wonderful. Service top notch. Marinara so good! A hidden gem in La Grange , Ky. Be coming back again soon. My calzone was packed full of ingredients, oozing cheese and sauce. Had calamari as a starter, so much better than Buca. read more

Service and food top notch for the newly opened restaurant in La Grange. AS it is so new I am wondering if the atmosphere updates will continue as it does seem a bit plain still and something odd but minor... the salt and pepper shakers are still in the "store" containers. Just a little update would make a huge difference in my opinion to make it feel just a bit more upscale but still at affordable prices. Because the prices are great! We enjoyed our meal no doubt. Just a little more tweaks I think are necessary to make it feel just a bit more put together. I really want this place to succeed for them and for our city! I will definitely be back soon! read more

Placed an $80 online order. Ordered 4 meals and an appetizer. Got home and was missing a meal and the appetizer. Food was at best a 4 out of 10. Chicken Piccata was very watery and the ravioli taste like chef boyardee. You're better off getting Gustavo's next door for the same price and much better food. read more
