Big Ben In Spongano

19/03/2026: We stopped for lunch on the way from Brindisi to Casarano near Gallipoli. The weather was awful, with rain and a cool wind. The restaurant was practically empty at 1:00 PM, except for the two of us and a couple of French women. My orecchiette with tomato sauce and sausage were excellent, and my wife had seafood pasta. Then grilled vegetables for me and mixed salad for her. Beer for me and water for her. Dessert for her was the zeppola di San Giuseppe, which was very good. Bill?? 60 euros, but we were satisfied with our lunch and ready to head back south.

22/12/2025: I highly recommend this restaurant, they take great care and attention to customer satisfaction, they offer house specialties, freshly made pasta, even gluten-free!!!
