Caffè trattoria Da Eleonora In Alessano

In the Piazza del Palazzo Ducale in Alessano, the air smells good and the fresh breeze inebriates you. We had dinner in this extremely welcoming place. Mrs. Eleonora herself showed us the menu. We tasted excellent fish and very fresh local products, well presented and with generous portions. Adequate prices. Well done! We returned because the restaurant and location won us over, we learned that the management is familiar and well looked after by Mrs. Eleonora and her three children. The girl who followed us explained the interesting history of the ancient building in which the restaurant is located and which was owned by the Sangiovanni dukes and has recently been restored. For dinner we were offered an amazing rosé wine with exactly the required characteristics. In short, everything was excellent: loction, food service and good wine. Compliments!!

Excellent cuisine with top quality materials, I recommend the fish, but the meat is also very good. Very friendly and fast service and reasonable costs. Congratulations Eleonora and Antonio

Excellent restaurant, charming service, quiet and on a very pretty square between two 15th century palaces. A must

This restaurant is located in the beautiful square of the historic center of Alessano. The service was pleasant, punctual and satisfied all our requests, the fish dishes were well cooked and the raw materials were of excellent quality. I will definitely return, magical atmosphere!

I gave one star less because the square is now treeless

I went to this café-trattoria for a drink after dinner, nice selection of gin and rum and competent staff.

Atmosfera molto piacevole, i tavoli all'aperto sono in una piazza pittoresca in centro ad Alessano. Servizio cortese, porzioni abbondanti. Il menù ha una discreta scelta fra piatti di terra e di mare, i piatti proposti non sono affatto banali. Merita ritornarci.

Good antipasti, good music and in a picturesque square

La location della trattoria da Eleonora è invidiabile, trovandosi in piazza Castello di Alessano, esteticamente ben restaurata. Il menù era predisposto per la serata di Ferragosto, con esclusione di piatti tipici. Preso antipasto di terra, verdure del contadino, due timballi di pasta fatta in casa alle melanzane e gamberetti; di secondo spigola con i pomodorini e capperi e gamberoni al forno, due spumoni di dessert. Acqua e un calice di rosato. Servizio attento e preciso. Conto congruo, 44 euro a testa, giustificato per l'ottima materia prima. L'Accademia Italiana della cucina, delegazione di Lecce, ha fatto bene ad attribuire due tempietti al locale, li vale tutti. Tornerò.

It's a shame they removed the trees from the square. However, the place remains very nice, good and with very generous portions
