Dorotea La Spaghetteria In Bitetto

When at the end of August you're still looking for a thrill, a surprise without the obvious, a quiet corner of quality before returning to work... well, here's the answer. Google "spaghetteria in Bari" but it redirects you to Bitetto and you find yourself in front of a cathedral in the desert. You're greeted by a dazzling smile (rare elsewhere these days) from the staff member, followed by the welcoming spirit of the rest of the staff, including a precise and attentive waiter who, like the waitress, pampers you and assists you in portioning, choosing, and making you feel at home. The location is also surprising inside, and the dishes straddle the line between tradition and innovation without overdoing it, since a chocolate bar of Altamura cream for dessert is nothing if not innovative yet perfectly in keeping with tradition, just like the initial experience with a tasting of crispy bread and locally sourced olive oil. What can I say? 5/4/5/5 is my rating, because the missing star will be added next time I try the carbonara and a dessert with almonds (from Toritto, I'd say) and pure dark chocolate, which I know the staff will embrace as my dream and make it a reality! I'm counting on it! The atmosphere was also great after dinner: a quiet area, smiling residents, and no digestive issues, confirming the quality of the ingredients. P.S.: The table overlooking the kitchen was also strategic, from which I glimpsed the unique cacio e pepe preparation and even a few tastings here and there from the staff. And when the staff eats what you eat, you no longer have any doubts about the quality. Thanks for making us feel good.

Everything was great, even better than some time ago Excellent taste path

Attentive and punctual service. The food is excellent, and the care and quality of the ingredients are evident in the dishes. The only flaw is the organic Coke, which is terrible.

We came here for dinner on the recommendation of our B&B owner. And it's highly recommended: we chose the part 1 signature flavors menu, and it was a hit: 5 delicious appetizers followed by a wonderful pasta dish and a dessert to finish. They cook with passion here!

A truly positive experience. Excellent flavors and sophisticated pairings, with attention to plating and service. Everything was delicious. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommended.

It's a shame that there is no option to order separate starters, the cost of which has increased in recent years.

Literally one of the best restaurants in Puglia and I’ve been coming here for many years. It’s the classic example of a true hidden gem. The owner/chef is a charming entrepreneur whose restaurant is clearly a passion project which he has worked from the ground up. Inventive dishes with powerful local ingredients - spaghetti all’assassina is amazing as well as the antipasti chosen by the chef. Great wine list - loved the sussumaniello red. Generous with extras and digestivi. Even the grandma was there to welcome us and offer her limoncello. Great fun; plus supporting local self-made restauranteur.

Dorotea isn't just a dinner, but a warming and energizing experience. If you love pasta and more and are looking for deliciousness, this spaghetti restaurant will win you over!

Dorotea La Spaghetteria in Bitetto is a guarantee, a confirmation with every visit! The service is impeccable: you immediately feel at home thanks to the attentive and smiling staff. But the heart of the place is the extraordinary quality: the spaghetti are simply divine, a true triumph of flavors that reveals selected ingredients and obsessive care. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for the passion you put in every day.

Sono stato in questa carinissima location più di una volta e sono sempre stato contento della scelta, ottima vastità di antipasti, e molta varietà di sapori degli spaghetti, i miei preferiti assassina e cacio e pepe. Personale educato e qualificato, sicuramente ci tornerò ancora
