A'Roma L'osteria In Lecce

The atmosphere and the staff's enthusiasm immediately make you feel the intensity of Italian, and especially Roman, culture, even though the osteria is located in Lecce. It's a good choice for Italians and non-Italians who want to eat Roman dishes, but needless to say, it's not quite the same, and the prices are more expensive than the pasta. For those who are lactose intolerant, there are no alternatives, because according to them, even the amatriciana sauce already contains cheese in the bottle, so it's not that they insist on adding it, but rather that the products are already set up that way. Even the pasta used was carefully chosen, and it's very rare for them to use another type upon request. The staff seems warm, but I don't agree with their tendency to repost a review on social media to shame certain people. It's a shame, because they have really nice social media pages and they just tarnish them like that. I'll be clear, I'm not angry with them, but I find it truly distasteful, even though we should already know that putting someone in the social media pillory to gain consensus is always condemnable.

Our first restaurant of our stay in Lecce, and we would have loved to go back every night. Unfortunately for us, the owners closed just a few days later. The pasta was incredible, and the tiramisu was unforgettable (the best we've ever had). The prices are quite reasonable, and the staff was friendly. The setting is also very pleasant (a terrace at the back, sheltered from the traffic noise). The only slight drawback was the somewhat long wait, but it was well worth it in the end. We highly recommend it!

Everything was delicious, you feel right at home. It's Roman cuisine, but not Romanian like you guys on Google describe it as.

We had a very good meal. Crostino, pasta, Amatricciana, and suckling pig.

The best meal of our 5 days in Puglia!

The pasta was perfect, the tiramisu was delicious, and the atmosphere was fantastic! I wish we had time to try more dishes because I'm sure they would have been just as delicious. The owner is incredibly friendly, helpful, and creates a warm atmosphere. We arrived just before opening and had no problem getting a table. I hope to return to this place again someday 😍

Fantastic! Both the pasta and the tiramisu were amazing. The service was also very friendly. I'll definitely be back!

We've been frequenting this restaurant for several years, and the quality of the food is a given. They offer a variety of traditional Roman appetizers, first courses, and second courses, and they're all delicious. The staff is attentive and friendly, even though it can get really busy at times. They also have a garden that's used during the warmer months. Highly recommended. :)

We had a lovely dinner here! Carbonara is a must if you're eating here and I definitely recommend the cheese plate, they were all excellent! The waiter was lovely as well. Not pricey! Definitely coming back!

A restaurant that deserves to be discovered 😋. We had a delicious meal and the staff were very helpful 👍
