L'Osteria di Mario In Bari

23/06/2025: We were here on Sunday, a day when the restaurant offers a fixed menu. I would like to highlight the extreme kindness and professionalism of the waiter who looked after us: we were in a hurry and, from the beginning, he put us at ease by explaining how we could break down the fixed menu. Fast, cordial and friendly, a real note of merit. We only ordered a first course each. The flavours were distinct, well-balanced and not at all heavy. However, the portions were rather small (5 or 6 paccheri per dish), which left a bitter taste in the mouth, especially considering the cost. For two, we spent about €40, without really feeling full. The environment is very well-kept and conveys a certain formality. In terms of the overall atmosphere, there is still some room for improvement in terms of informal friendliness, especially on the part of the rest of the staff. A detail that can make the difference on the overall experience, especially in a restaurant that focuses on hospitality.
