Locanda San Giuseppe In Taranto

Excellent service. A cozy, intimate atmosphere, well-decorated. The quality-price ratio is a bit too high.

The new management of this seafood restaurant is a real surprise! The lobster paccheri were simply wonderful, incredibly fresh, and prepared with care and attention to detail. But the meal was truly complete, thanks to the exquisite appetizers and the raw fish boat, which offered a wide selection of fresh, high-quality fish. And for those who love fried fish, the mixed fried fish was simply delicious! The service was impeccable, with friendly and professional staff. Congratulations to the new management, they've done a great job! Recommended for all seafood lovers!

Let's start with the most important aspect: the food. Nothing to complain about, fresh fish, well-prepared and even original dishes (the gnocchi with mussels and pecorino cheese was exquisite). But overall, unfortunately, I found some shortcomings related to the service. Probably due to it being a Sunday, in a Taranto overrun with tourists (and for that we're all happy), but unfortunately, our service wasn't entirely adequately timed and served. The fact that orders aren't recorded already hinted at this, but there were three of us, and managing to mess up a first course (even though they kindly offered to change it) and appetizers honestly left me a bit perplexed. A bit pricey, considering we ordered an appetizer (a bit meager, being only gratinated mussels, marinated anchovies, and 3 shrimp with pancetta... leaving aside for a moment the fact that we had also ordered stuffed cuttlefish as appetizers, which then became calamari because they were not available and, in the meantime, became calamarata with sauce... but oh well, still excellent, eh, they arrived only after the first courses and I had reminded him that we were waiting for them to arrive). Would I go back? Definitely. But on a less busy day and hoping to see the orders taken down. Come on 💪🏻

Excellent sea food. Oysters, gratinated mussels, and octopus salad were perfect.

I used to love eating here, but unfortunately, with the change in management, the experience has also changed. There's no menu or choice. The waiter, with his "landlord" attitude, practically forces you to eat what he says (obviously, it's not his fault, but he does what he's told). There's only one first course available and one second course, which consists of fried seafood, consisting only of shrimp and calamari (at this point I was eating at home). It's also absurd that there are no desserts, especially for a place of this caliber. A plus is the quality of the raw fish, which remains good.

Very nice atmosphere, perfect personal and good food.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ True culinary excellence! We visited this restaurant for the first time and were deeply impressed. The welcome was warm and professional, the staff attentive to every detail without ever being intrusive. The menu is a perfect combination of tradition and innovation: dishes crafted with attention to detail, elegantly presented, and balanced in flavor. Every course was a discovery, from the refined appetizers to the simply spectacular dessert. The wine list is also excellent, with interesting options that pair well with the dishes. The setting is elegant yet relaxing, with a beautiful atmosphere that makes dinner even more enjoyable. I will definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-end gastronomic experience. Congratulations to all the staff❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️thanks to the chef and the owners a big hug 😘 see you soon

At Locanda San Giuseppe, we found excellent quality, a good price, and friendly service. Everyone loved the paccheri with scampi cream. Highly recommended.

There are no words to describe the deliciousness of the fried fish, the cod, and the paccheri with scampi. Go there, go there, you will be more than satisfied.

The dishes served were excellent and the table service was good, the desserts should be reviewed.
