La Cecchina In Bari

Characteristic, friendly staff, good food, in the most typical area of ​​Bari, I recommend it

The best restaurant I've tried in Bari Vecchia. Exceptional orecchiette. Excellent service, good wine selection, welcoming atmosphere, and a great location. Prices are in line with the quality. I'd definitely go back.

The welcome was warm, the shrimp tartare was excellent, and the orecchiette with turnip tops were delicious. The other dishes were also very good. The atmosphere is typical of Bari's historic district. I definitely recommend it.

We had the best experience in this restaurant. The food was amazing, but the staff really made our evening unforgettable. The waitress that attended us was super nice and helpful, she even offered a free sample of a dish that we were curious about. This was definitely the best dinner we had in Bari.

We were here with 3 generations of small family at Valentines day, prebooked table for the evening. Excellent food and service with a smile!

From the outside, this restaurant has always intrigued me, especially considering how popular it is, so even without a reservation I managed to dine there last week. The warm and welcoming atmosphere makes you feel immediately at ease, with its simple yet homey decor. The staff is attentive and very courteous. The wine list is good, not to mention the Apulian cuisine that exceeds expectations. Highly recommended, and we'll definitely be returning in the summer.

Excellent traditional Bari dishes and friendly, attentive staff. Recommended!

Relaxed atmosphere, impeccable service. We ordered a bread and oil tasting, paccheri with octopus ragù, sautéed cuttlefish with vegetables, mandarin sorbet, and chocolate soufflé. Everything was delicious and excellent, truly.

A truly lovely, quiet place if you're looking for a bit of peace and quiet and good, well-prepared, and tasty cuisine. Attentive and polite service.

Truly remarkable dinner. Very welcoming atmosphere, smiling, professional, and warm staff. Very interesting menu with unique combinations and perfectly balanced flavors. We were intrigued by a shrimp, lemon, and mint tartare; seared octopus on a broad bean and pepper puree for the appetizer; grilled cuttlefish on a crudité of zucchini, carrots, arugula, and almonds; baked cod with broccoli; and a creamy, sublime, dirty muss. The fish was incredibly fresh. What struck me most was the feeling of being at home with your mother, who isn't satisfied with just having you eat what you order, but has to go overboard and pamper you to the fullest. So even if you order an appetizer, they bring you two bites of amazing Barese pizza, and even though the single dessert portion includes two dirty muss, on your plate you find a dozen toasted almonds, four dried figs with chocolate, and two sweet tarallini. How about you? You can't help but let yourself be pampered 2 appetizers, 2 main courses, 1 dessert, 2 glasses of wine, water, and 2 coffees, service charge: €89. Very respectable.
