Il Macchiolino In Gallipoli

A very elegant, welcoming, and refined restaurant with the renowned chef Peppe Macchia in the kitchen. Here you can find delicious and original dishes, seafood, and excellent wines and champagnes for an unforgettable and unique dinner. The cuisine is both seafood and meat. Recommended!

A gem hidden in a relatively quiet part of the city very close to the train station. All food we tried tasted and served perfect. We tried the sea food options both for appetizers and the main courses. I highly recommend.

The owner was friendly and the service was acceptable and fair. Personally, I expected much more, even though I didn't order anything special, so I have to be respectful of the rest of the menu. The calamari wasn't great and the portion was average...the seafood salad, ditto. The mixed salad was decent and plentiful. The fries weren't very generous in quantity (luckily, we asked for two portions and they brought three, charging us for all three), but they were still good. I'd go back to try the first courses, since the owner actually ate them; otherwise, for what I ordered (and paid), I probably wouldn't repeat the experience.

An excellent lunch in every way: the fresh and well-prepared fish appetizers, I recommend the seafood salad, the perfect fried fish, and the rice with mussels. The service is attentive and discreet.

The reviews speak for themselves!!! Chefs like Peppe Macchia are not easy to find a stone that takes taste!! And that says it all.
