PAlma sushi — Restaurant in Ponta Delgada

Tiny Sushi Spot, Big on Flavor (and Kindness)

We wandered into this little sushi café yesterday, no reservation, no plan—just the hope of snagging a table. Spoiler: we didn’t. The place is small, cozy, and clearly a hit with locals because every table was taken. But instead of turning us away, the staff turned on the charm.

“Takeout?” they offered with a smile. And in no time—10 minutes, to be exact—they whipped up our order while plying us with drinks and good vibes. It was the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like a regular, even if you’ve never been there before.

And the sushi? Perfection. Generous cuts of fresh fish, just the right amount of rice—none of that carb-heavy nonsense. Every bite was a reminder of why this little gem was packed to the rafters.

So, if you’re after amazing sushi and service that feels like a warm hug, this place is worth the wait—or the takeout box. Just remember to book ahead next time. Trust me,...

We had a fantastic Valentine’s Day dinner at Palma Sushi! From the moment we arrived, Sofia and Horisont made us feel incredibly welcome with their impeccable service.

We started with a bottle of rosé wine, which paired beautifully with the 32-piece sushi platter. Every piece was fresh, expertly crafted, and full of flavor. The quality and presentation truly impressed us! We enjoyed it so much that we ordered another dish to keep savoring the experience.

A huge thank you to the team for making our evening so special. We couldn’t have asked for a better Valentine’s Day celebration. Highly recommended for...

Food was really fresh, presented gorgeously and -most important- the taste was great. We had the classic sushi & sashimi menu and the classic veggie menu. Next time I would try the premium version just for a change but I wasn't missing anything. The local Especial beer from the draft paired well. Service was also excellent, the waitress was friendly, quick and observant.

It feels like this is a young motivated team and it shows. The guys behind the counter also left a positive impression on me, they seem to take pride...
