MARGOT Pizza gourmet In Lecce

04/01/2026: This review is about the restaurant. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, though in my opinion the tables are too close together, with good background music that doesn't disturb conversation at the table. It was a dinner for two, but unfortunately the expectations weren't reflected in the flavors of the dishes. Cuttlefish julienne was drowned in a flavorless broth, and the crispy potatoes described on the menu were soggy. The other appetizer was off the menu, and I don't remember the name, nor the flavor. The cod steak was excellent, perfectly cooked, and paired perfectly with the creamed cannellini beans; you could taste the various flavors in your mouth. The purple gnocco wasn't made with purple potatoes, but rather purple potatoes and carrots, according to the waiter. The Gallipoli purple shrimp didn't make a great impression on the dish at all; they were just ordinary white shrimp, and the purple shrimp, even cooked, had an unmistakable flavor. The prices, however, were very fair for the setting. I'll conclude by saying that cuisine is always subjective. P.S. The panettone offered by the house is very good.

28/12/2025: I ate at this restaurant a week ago. The place is very beautiful, intimate, and well-kept. The staff is welcoming and professional. The menu has a nice variety and is appetizing. My overall rating is a seven, because what we ordered wasn't as extraordinary as we expected. We ordered a first and second course of meat, preceded by an appetizer. Their strong point is probably seafood, and there was indeed a large selection of very interesting catch of the day, but we weren't in the mood to try it. We'll be back for a second review of the seafood.
