Fish M Chips — Restaurant in Palermo

This place is located within a busy market. All available dishes are displayed behind a glass window, ready cooked, you choose what you want, and it is brought to you after reheating. Food was nice, but nothing exceptional, and the quality was variable, with some dishes better than others: I had to ask for the sardine balls to be heated properly, as they had been brought out still cold the first time. Also, the fried seafood cone contained far too much tiny fish, too little calamari, and not a single prawn, although it was meant to. My biggest gripe, though, is that prices aren't displayed, which bothers me quite a bit: how do you know, when you get the bill, whether they're the real prices or 'tourist prices', as suggested by some previous users? All in all, it came to just under 50€ for several small dishes with two soft drinks, + cover charge (1,50€ per person). An ok place, definitely not the best, but would still recommend if you...

Coming here just as they opened resulted in an extremely fresh baked assortment of fish (without chips). It was a mix of grilled anchovies, chewy calamari, crunchy shrimp and one baked octopus. It was so much I couldn’t finish the portion and took the rest to go. As it is located on the Capo streetmarket, it is a loud and crowded area that attracts a variety of Italians and tourists, with the later just grabbing a quick bite or being students. Your senses will therefore be completely overwhelmed the entire visit, including with the strong smell of fish from the stall next door.

The criticism about cash payment and the lack of prices is correct though, we payed €6 for the whole load of fish per person but were asked €12 for a similar thing elsewhere so it seemed like a decent price that Italian students were also...

We were passing from the market street and we noticed this lovely fish restaurant and then we decided to sit. There are so many options to choose from, but anything we tried was delicious! The service is super friendly and everything was brought to us very fast. The whole market has a very nice vibe and also when there was some music playing from some passing by person then people from the restaurants were participating and singing too! Also, when the table next to us became vacant, the waiters decided to add it to our table, so we have more space for all the different dishes, that we had for lunch. Also, the prices are very logical and we left this place...
