Al Pescatore In Bari

Our local guide strongly recommended this place for dinner. Reservations likely required as this place seems very popular. The restaurant has two lovely outdoor seating areas. We opted for inside due to the summer heat. The inside dining room is minimal with little decorations. It was very nice, clean, and the ambient music was volume was pleasant. Menu is seafood heavy, but there are plenty of choices. Even our very picky daughter found plenty to eat. We started with some oysters, which were very large and very tasty. We then had a risotto with various crustaceans which was delicious. Service was excellent and very friendly with recommendations and answering questions about the menu. This restaurant was certainly a highlight of our visit and we would strongly recommend.

Excellent dishes and quality and freshness of the products. It makes the difference in this city.

Very expensive for what you get. Service with no kindness or soul, just robots... Raw pasta!!! Not even al dente...

A guarantee! I've been coming here for twenty years, and it's truly a guarantee. Everything is top-notch, from the service to the quality of the food, to the bill. The raw fish is sublime, the paccheri with red mullet, and the scampi carpaccio are absolutely delicious...highly recommended.

Highly recommended! The fish was incredibly fresh, both raw and cooked, and the wine selection was excellent! I ate very well, and I was particularly impressed by the mandarin sorbet, which was truly delicious! The price was reasonable.

Top restaurant! Edoardo the waiter is super, very nice and kind! Highly recommended and if you happen to be in Bari, stop by here!

Locale alle porte di Bari Vecchia, molto elegante (e costoso) ma con prodotti di primissima qualità. Il banco del pescato del giorno è una vera delizia per gli occhi. Personale capace che che sa anche guidarti sia sulle scelte gastronomiche, sia su quelle enologiche (nel caso in cui non si abbia voglia di leggere una carta dei vini di 41 pagine. Benvenuto con la focaccia barese e poi via con antipasti crudi e cotti, ricottine prodotte da loro, u primo e un secondo. Offerta di un piatto di carote ghiacciate come defatigante a fine pasto e limoncello offerto

Sono stata a cena con colleghi durante una trasferta a Bari e posso dire che la serata e" stata luci ed ombre . ottimo pesce,qualità alta freschezza garantita ma senza menù da scegliere , ha proposto il cameriere , ha esagerato con le bottiglie di vino rivelatesi poi da 35 euro l'una ,antipasti scarsi per la nostra tavolata di 16 , anche questi carissimi tra cotti e crudi . Conto esagerato per vino ed antipasti ,pasta con dentice ottima ma poi il dentice al forno si è rivelato un po' troppo cotto e poco saporito Verdure grigliate misere, che abbiamo anche avanzato . Totale 95 euro a testa ,veramente troppo
