We went for dinner at Antica Trattoria Comes on a recent evening and were pleasantly surprised by how quickly it filled up right after opening at 8:30 PM—a clear sign this beloved spot lives up to its reputation .
Despite the busy scene, service was great. There was just one waiter on duty, yet he remained friendly, attentive, and efficient throughout the evening—an impressive performance under pressure .
To start, we had the seafood salad, simple yet expertly fresh—letting the natural flavors shine. Next up were the seafood cavatelli and seafood risotto, both bursting with authentic, briny “flavours of the sea.” They were beautifully executed and deeply satisfying. We finished with a chocolate mousse, velvety rich and decadently deep, yet never too heavy.
What truly sets this place apart is its commitment to simple local dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. If you’re in Polignano a Mare and craving honest, flavorful seafood in a charming, lively trattoria, this is a must-visit.

We love this restaurant! It was recommended by our Airbnb host for traditional Apulian cuisine and it did not disappoint. Simple pastas done well. We got the seafood cavatelli and the traditional Apulian oreciette. Great prices too. Definitely recommend! We went at 8:15pm shortly after they opened on a Saturday and were easily able to get a table.

Elegant trattoria, the owner/waiter/entertainer is a phenomenon of care and speed, he does everything himself!! Fantastic orecchiette, exceptional fried food and appetizers... generous portions and low prices in my opinion! TOP!

I thought better from the reviews. The pasta was good but not excellent and the octopus was super chewy

Giuseppe davvero gentile e molto in gamba visto che era solo a gestire tutti i tavoli. Parla diverse lingue e il ristorante era pieno. Cucina semplice e buona, casalinga, che molto spesso è davvero la migliore!
