A mellow, Mediterranean mood prevails at Palma, a Sicilian spot that solidifies Cornelia Street as one of the best small restaurant blocks in Manhattan. Decor is simple and soulful, with chestnut tables and a stone-tile floor. Well-chosen music and soft-voiced, olive-skinned servers help the restaurant dance to a sultry undertow.

The Scene
A mellow, Mediterranean mood prevails at Palma, a Sicilian spot that solidifies Cornelia Street as one of the best small restaurant blocks in Manhattan. Decor is simple and soulful; well-chosen music and soft-voiced servers help the restaurant dance to a sultry undertow.

The Food
Grilled fish are at the center of the menu, and preparations like swordfish with mint, lemon and capers are the clearest indication of the food's Sicilian roots. Many of the dishes turn on a few simple elements, like a salad of fennel, orange and black olives or a plate of chopped artichokes that churn through an alternately salty, lemony and crunchy cycle on the tongue. Dishes also include steamed branzino with vegetables, and a gutsy frutti di mare al Cartoccio--a bread-topped crock of clams, mussels, calamari and monkfish.

While the food is wonderful, the atmosphere is relaxing, magical and very European.
