La Corte degli Ulivi In Ortelle

I'll start by saying that I live in Bali and when I return to Italy I look for the flavors of home and I'm very picky. I travel around Italy from north to south, including the islands. I've been in Puglia for a few days and, in the company of a friend, I visited Corte degli Ulivi. I met Rocco, the owner, who welcomed me with an impromptu aperitif, based on my request, of prosecco and amazing fried foods! From there, I should have known that the dinner would exceed my expectations. But Rocco and the staff knew how to surprise me! They served me a plate of raw fish worthy of a bow, accompanied by a prestigious wine and then surprised me with a dessert I was unfamiliar with called "spumone"! Believe me, it was a dinner worthy of an A+. The service, location, courtesy, professionalism were the backdrop to this perfectly plated and excellent quality food. You're wondering how much it cost? Incredible value for money. If there were more stars to give this review, they would never be enough! I thank Rocco for giving me this magnificent experience.

What a wonderful, lovingly run restaurant. I definitely recommend booking. Take your time and enjoy the food and the evening!

Delicious food, super friendly service, lovely ambiance. Highly recommend.

A super beautiful place, extremely friendly staff, and delicious food! We were offered a glass of Prosecco and a delicious appetizer!

A cozy, meticulously maintained restaurant with a beautiful internal garden where you can dine under the olive trees. Delicious dishes, made with quality ingredients and the freshest fish. Friendly and attentive service. Compliments to the chef and the wait staff. Highly recommended, and we'll definitely be back!

The food is good, maybe a little expensive

Beautiful location, an evening invited by dear friends from Salento. I enjoyed every course, particularly the appetizers, which in my opinion were an excellent reinterpretation of classic Salento dishes.

Very beautiful location, with tables arranged around a small pool. Relaxing atmosphere. Professional service with friendly and helpful staff. Excellent food, tasty, beautifully presented, and with suggestions for the daily specials. Top.

Everything was excellent, from the service to the food. Fresh, homemade products at a very reasonable price.

Heerlijk!! Vriendelijk lekker én goed adviserend. Een onverwacht mooi plekje. Jammer dat zo de volgende dag gesloten zijn, anders waren we zeker weer gegaan.
