L'Appetitosa Da Mimmoccio In Grottaglie

13/06/2025: We have been to La Locanda dello Zing several times, even on special occasions such as family birthdays, and each time it has been an impeccable experience. The place is small, with few seats, which makes it intimate, refined and cared for in the smallest details, the perfect environment for those looking for uncompromising quality. What immediately strikes you is the attention to the selection of drinks: wines, sparkling wines, craft beers, bitters, rums and high-quality gins, chosen with taste and expertise. Maurizio, the owner, is a true connoisseur and always knows how to recommend the right pairing between dish and glass, guiding the guest with passion and professionalism. One of the most appreciable things is that for each dish Maurizio takes the time to tell the story, the ingredients and the preparation, adding value to the gastronomic experience and transmitting all the care with which the menu is conceived. In the kitchen there is Ivana, Maurizio's sister, who prepares each course entirely in-house. The dishes are refined, balanced and full of personality, from seafood and meat appetizers to first courses, second courses and desserts, all with attention to detail and prepared with high-quality ingredients. Upon request, you can also enjoy excellent raw fish, always very fresh and served with elegance. Every visit is a journey through authentic and refined flavors, served with courtesy, passion and a familiar touch that makes everything even more special. A little gem that deserves to be discovered and appreciated by those who love good food, done well and with heart. Highly recommended.

19/05/2025: Very small portions, despite a first course (three tortelli...!), a second course and a dessert (micro), we left still hungry. Too bad, the food is good, the environment is nice and the owner is competent, but too expensive for the small portions.
