Essenza il ristorante di Enza Crucinio In Policoro

I highly recommend this restaurant. The place is beautiful, well-maintained, with modern furnishings and a pleasant outdoor area for aperitifs. The service is impeccable, combining attentiveness and friendliness without compromising professionalism. Our cuisine is interesting, featuring excellent local ingredients paired with revisited traditional dishes, with bold and authentic flavors. Wait times are reasonable, and it's a pleasure to watch the chef and his team move through the kitchen in absolute silence and with utmost attention. The wine list, with its fair markups, features a wide range of labels, including both national and international, with a focus on small producers from around the region. I wish the best to this young and vibrant team!

Love for your work Respect for the customer True Lucanian hospitality I dined with my family. We were greeted warmly with sincere smiles. The entire staff is special and enjoys engaging with guests. The story of Enza, the chef, is moving. It's the story of someone who, starting from nothing, managed to reach extraordinary heights with skill, humanity, and intuition. There's so much to learn from her... We'll be back!

A fantastic surprise! This restaurant reigns supreme in Policoro, yet it makes you feel right at home! The atmosphere and staff are very attentive! Unusual dishes with intense, bold flavors! The quality of the ingredients is very high!

Couple dinner for a special event. We chose to dine at this restaurant… a true taste experience. Beautiful, well-kept and clean place, exquisite staff and open kitchen. We chose a tasting menu, with some variations given my state of pregnancy… everything excellent and abundant. I recommend it and we will definitely be back!!!! Many compliments!!

Comfortable and well-kept environment, with attention to live plants and not synthetics. Attentive welcome. Elegant and attentive service. The food, especially the chef's first course, was once again impeccable. The proposals met our expectations, especially the dessert, make me you. It was a really good experience. The only focus is on serving temperatures. Average prices

Sono stata ospite in questo ristorante per il pranzo di compleanno della mia amica e posso confermare le recensioni positive. Locale accogliente e piatti con ottima materia prima. Personale attento. Sicuramente da ritornare e consigliare. Ottimo anche il dolce.

Locale ricercato, arredi eleganti e curati. Stesso stile lo ritrovi nei piatti proposti, noi abbiamo preso l’antipasto percorso di mare dove viene proposto una mini porzione di tutti gli antipasti…buonissimo il baccalà in pastella. Poi abbiamo preso i primi e consiglio sicuramente gli spaghetti al nero di seppia, spettacolari; uno dei primi al nero di seppia più buoni che ho mangiato. Buoni anche il risotto ai 3 carciofi e non male gli spaghetti all’assassina, ma nulla di eccezionale a mio avviso. Ottimo anche la tagliata di tonno. Buonissimo il pane che propongono, fatto direttamente dalla chef. Abbiamo provato più dolci, ma il numero uno il tiramisù da comporre direttamente al tavolo. Ottima proposta di vini, molto variegata e che copre tutti i gusti. Servizio impeccabile e curato per i dettagli, personale veloce ed attento. Tappa consigliata, meglio prenotare.

Truly a nice discovery. The cuisine is excellent, with some very slight flaws (but nothing serious) on the service, probably linked to the full room and, therefore, to the fact that the cuisine is particularly appreciated! Quality raw materials, generous portions, excellent "hand" in the kitchen. Combined with a walk along the seafront, it heals body and soul. Congratulations to chef Enza Crucinio.
