THE COMPANY

A leader in the restaurant, banqueting, and hotel tourism sectors, our company has been a staple in the Palermo scene for 15 years. Ristorantino Pizzeria Leone, a historic establishment once owned by the renowned comedian Franco Franchi, is the crown jewel of our company. We specialize in fresh local fish, carefully selected daily from the finest ports across Sicily. We are also known for our delicious, artisanal panettone and exquisite colomba, both produced in limited quantities.

Palazzo Leone, our venue for events and conferences, boasts 15th-century architecture, providing an enchanting location where every detail is meticulously attended to. Our exclusive accommodations, Leone Suite B&B and Leone Suite Apartments, are located a short distance from the Teatro Massimo and Palermo Cathedral, in an area rich in history and culture. These accommodations feature modern design with attention to detail, offering spacious rooms with private bathrooms, air conditioning, and all necessary comforts for a pleasant stay. The apartments include a fully equipped kitchen for a more autonomous experience.

NUOVA LEONE FOR THE FESTINO: "ROSALIÆ - DA PASSEGGIO” PROJECT

The "Rosaliæ - Da Passeggio" project is a celebration of the history, culture, and identity of Palermo through the symbol of Santa Rosalia. Rosaliæ Da Passeggio is a rose-shaped cannolo designed to be eaten with a spoon. This sweet innovation in the street food scene combines local tradition with the floral aesthetics symbolic of Santa Rosalia. Each petal represents the multifaceted nature of her figure, as the patron saint of the city of Palermo and its inhabitants.

Through the reinterpretation of the cannolo, we aim to highlight local raw materials and promote an innovative taste experience in a context that celebrates the inclusivity and multiculturalism of the city. This project is not just a celebration but an invitation to reflection and sharing, reaffirming the values of "Palermitanity." These values make Palermo a city rich in humanity.
