Palermo Viejo is hands down my favorite restaurant in this entire city (with sincere apologies to L&N, Jack Fry's, Maido, Seviche, Cafe Lou Lou and the many, many others on my top ten list. Yes, there are more than ten on there). The value, quality, service and ambience are all exceptional. I always suggest the Lomo (tenderloin), but you really can't go wrong with anything that comes with the Chimichurri sauce. Additionally, do yourself a favor and order the cheese plate to start. It was rightfully named one of the top in the city by, I believe, Louisville Magazine. One last thing, I don't normally do dessert, but you have to save room for the crepe filled with dulce de lece and topped with roasted banana ice cream. Aside from L&N's Creme Brulee, it is the best dessert in town. Anyway, have a great time. I am sure it will quickly become a favorite of yours.
p.s. I am not on the payroll there. I'm just an enormous fan.
