La Locanda Sul Porto In Monopoli

By the port, great views, but disappointing food and service. Unwelcoming, we went in smiling and greeting the waiters before mentioning we had a reservation, the waiters — cross-armed and passive, did not even bother to say good evening. The bread served: stale and hard. When taking the order, the waiter barely spoke (not because he was incompetent in english, but simply, by choice.) The food on the other hand, very mediocre. Ordered the Tuna Carpaccio, uneven slices and wasn’t great fish (overly fishy). Also had the calamarata pasta and the seafood cavatelli pasta. The cavatelli was way too salty and one of the worse ones we’ve had on the trip, and the calamarata pasta was overly chewy and slightly undercooked. The monkfish ragout was thick and lacked flavour. The most disappointing experience on our Puglia trip so far, shame it was also our last night in Monopoli. Go somewhere else where the waiters actually have interest in serving and the food meets the standard of what the restaurant portrays.

Restaurant on the Monopoli harbor with carefully crafted dishes and select ingredients. Creative and sophisticated appetizers with interesting pairings. Friendly and attentive service. Excellent value, highly recommended.

We've been going there for years; every family celebration, birthday, wedding anniversary, or any other event is a great opportunity to go. For my wife and I, it's the best restaurant in Monopoli, and beyond.

Always Reliable Great seafood—third visit in three years and consistently excellent. Book ahead if you want a table outside.

Some of the best seafood we had in Italy. This restaurant was recommended by our Airbnb host, they said the seafood is fresh from the port and it did not disappoint. We had raw seafood platter (ok), seafood pasta (the best, must get) and fried seafood. Service was exceptional and the wine was phenomenal. I actually preferred the oysters I had the day before from a different local place though.

The best restaurant of our trip! The food is excellent, the service very attentive and friendly, and the wine list is extensive and extensive. We really enjoyed spending evenings here because the atmosphere was wonderful. I hope to return ❤️

We had high expectations, and they were far exceeded. The quality, courtesy, and price ratio were excellent. Appetizers for three, six fish-based first courses, a mixed fried fish platter, three glasses of wine, and plenty of water. Highly recommended.

Everything met expectations. Attentive and punctual service. Medium-low prices. The portions were adequate; the appetizer for two was plentiful. I personally don't like fish accompanied by anything else, such as sauces or cheeses, but the menu makes that clear and the quality is there, so it's objectively five stars.

fabulosa comida - el entrante para dos era delicioso y un montón de comida. Encantadora pasta y vino y el personal amable y en cuanto al precio era sorprendentemente menos caro que otros restaurantes, pero una experiencia mucho mejor - muy recomendable.
