La Vecchia Osteria In Lecce

Typical Salento tavern, excellent food and very friendly staff

All foods served are of high quality. The fast service is of a high level of professionalism. Optimal!

We visited here twice because the food was exceptionally good and the staff was really friendly. I would highly recommend trying the Ciceri e tria pasta.

A place that remains in the heart. The quality of excellent raw materials, cooked with care and skill. Excellent appetizers and first courses. Exquisite house wine. I'll be back to savor the seconds.

Traditional restaurant. Delicious food, very friendly and helpful waiters, with the dialect joke in the right place. Great atmosphere. We will definitely return

Sciamu allu Totu... This trattoria with typical Salento cuisine is a piece of history, over the years it has changed location but remains faithful to tradition. You eat well without too many frills, the dishes are tasty, the service is kind and present and the environment is the convivial one of home...

5 out of 5 stars 🌟 I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant in Lecce, and I must say that it was an unforgettable experience! The atmosphere is welcoming and authentic, perfect for immersing yourself in the Salento culture. The menu offers a wide choice of typical dishes, prepared with the freshest and highest quality ingredients. Each course was an explosion of flavours: from the traditional puccia to the homemade orecchiette, everything was simply perfect. The service is impeccable: the staff is courteous, attentive and ready to satisfy every request, with a always genuine smile. Particular praise goes to the wine list, which includes an excellent selection of local labels. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to discover true Salento cuisine in a warm and refined environment. I will definitely be back!

Gentlemen, the Lecce restaurant... period! Super delicious food and amazing staff! We went to dinner and it was like being at home even though we were tourists (and we know that some restaurateurs are jealous of us), but here it was like being at home, they pampered us... The place is not big so my advice is to book... trust me, book... Being of Salento origins I can only confirm that you will need products and preparations as the Salento cuisine commands... it was as if I were at grandma's house eating! I was really impressed, congratulations to the staff and the owner! Lastly, if you like rosé I recommend the Leverano winery which is something exceptional! I hope to visit you again soon!

Un menù invitante e delizioso. Peccato essersi fatti irretire dall antipasto e dal primo per non riuscire poi a degustare il secondo che sicuramente avrebbe meritato un assaggio. L antipasto di frittini e crocchette era una meraviglia, così come le sagne e i ciceri e tria.

A passeggio a Lecce con una coppia di amici, siamo arrivati in questa location alle porte del centro storico, quasi attaccata alla multisala 'Massimo', forti anche della parola magica 'osteria'! Per esperienza sappiamo che in un'osteria è molto facile mangiare specialità locali, con rapporto qualità/prezzo ottimale: così è stato! Il personale in sala si è dimostrato molto cordiale e professionale, con servizio abbastanza veloce e qualche suggerimento ad hoc, poi rivelatosi molto utile. Ampia scelta di vini in bottiglia, anche se noi abbiamo preferito il vino sfuso. Gli spazi sono molto ristretti, ma l'atmosfera è gioviale.
