IL Focolare In Minervino murge

04/05/2026: This restaurant in Trani's historic center was recommended to us by the host of our B&B. It's located just steps from the Cathedral in a quiet little square and a stone's throw from the seafront, a great spot to stop right after dinner. The quality of the ingredients was excellent, the service impeccable; everyone was helpful right from the start, and the price was in line with the quality of the food and drinks. The mixed antipasto was highly recommended. We'll definitely return as soon as we return to Trani.

26/04/2026: We recently moved to Trani from the US, and navigating the language barrier can be tough—especially on a busy holiday like Liberation Day. Despite every table being packed, the staff at Cottura Media was incredibly accommodating. While the outdoor seating was full, they managed to find us a spot inside without hesitation. In a city like NYC, service under this kind of pressure might come with an attitude, but not here. The staff worked together like a seamless team. The owner realized we didn’t speak Italian and personally made sure a waiter who spoke English came over to help us translate the menu and place our order. The meal was fantastic. We started with the trio of fish tartare and the Calabrese, followed by a perfectly prepared seafood pasta and a filet of bream. Paired with a bottle of Prosecco, it was the perfect afternoon. I have so much respect for how hard this team works. We truly appreciated the warm welcome and the delicious food. We will definitely be back. I am sure I will be giving all 5 stars next time!
