Li Jalantuumene In Monte sant'angelo

Grazie Mille Gege e Ninni! Such a delightful evening at Li Jalantuùmene!! Everything was absolutely delicious, the products were fresh and every dish was very tasty! The wine selection was great. The chef is very friendly and passionate and his wife is absolutely charming! They definitely deserve one star ⭐️

The slightly higher price for the food, compared to "catch the tourists"-restaurants, is justified. The food is really good and the chef very friendly. You'll find a lot of vegetarian options in the menu. If you're looking for good food (and if you additionall, maybe, are vegetarian), this is the right place for you.

Great! Very delicious food, great cook. Exquisite ingredients and beautiful terrace. Great for vegetarians! <3

What an excellent evening my boyfriend and I had in this lovely restaurant in the old historical center of Monte Sant'Angelo! The food was great and very tasteful, the restaurant's interior was lovely and decorated with interesting works of art. The service was very friendly and helpful. We were both charmed that the chef personally came to our table to recommend us a nice bottle of wine. A great experience overall.

We had dinner at Li Jalantuùmene on August 14th; the restaurant immersed in a magical atmosphere of the Puglia of other times gave us a riot of flavors and aromas expertly blended by Gege and his proverbial welcome. Paolo and Anna

Enjoyed a wonderful evening of delicious food. The chef prepared us a handmade gluten-free dinner of six courses. It was fantastic!

The restaurant is in a perfect position to combine a visit to the village of Monte Sant'Agelo and an excellent meal, it is located in the historic center in a lovely square and less than 5 minutes walk from the sanctuary of the archangel Michael. I found the cuisine on offer truly consistent with the area and above all full of good and interesting dishes. The service was impeccable, attentive and very friendly, the place is managed by Gegè Mangano, a histrionic chef, and his wife, a very kind head nurse. Both have the pleasant habit of interacting with customers and telling their story and their commitment to catering. On the menu I would especially recommend the meats which I found cooked impeccably. Overall a really positive experience with a fair price for a meal that leaves you full and enriched.

What can I say about this fabulous restaurant? There are not enough superlatives to describe it but I will try. The talented chef, Gege, warmly welcomed us into his beautiful restaurant. From the very first moment we knew that we had found something special. Fabulous interior - comfortable chairs and a beautiful environment with gorgeous artwork and wonderful but unobtrusive music. The menu is limited to three or so dishes for each course - this is because Gege uses only the freshest, seasonal ingredients and therefore changes the menu quite regularly to suit. We had the fava beans soup for starters followed by oricchiette with broccolini - both dishes of the region. We loved them both and couldn't decide which was our favourite. For dessert we had another local dish, creamy ricotta with crumbles, lemon peel and a wine sauce. Again, out of this world. Gege also treated us to some more delicacies of the region, including the little wafer biscuits with almonds and honey, all of which were delectable. Our only regret was that we had to leave! What a gem of a place we had found in Monte Sant'Angelo. We will be recommending Li Jalantuumene to all of our friends and live for the day when we will be back. We noticed that there is a six course degustation menu and are dreaming of returning for dinner one night to partake. The ideal would be to also book a room at Casa Li Jalantuumene, of which there are four, so that we didn't have to drive and could have more than one glass of wine from Gege's wonderful wine list. I wish that all restaurants were up to this standard. Thank you, Gege, for providing us with such a very special experience. You have well and truly raised the bar.

Excellent food, wine and service, nice location.
