Osteria da Roberto In Nardò

Osteria da Roberto is the quintessential osteria. True home cooking with delicious dishes and friendly owners. Whether dining outside in the summer, or in their cozy internal dining room, Osteria da Roberto is the perfect spot for authentic local cuisine with a focus on flavor and simplicity. The Aglio, olio, peperoncino is so delicious, as was the polpettone in sauce. Even the spaghetti with tomato sauce is unbelievable! A true local gem in Nardò.

What a charming place. It was full when we arrived but then they just picked up another table in the alley. Fantastic food.

Typical local cuisine, with dishes that offer the simple taste of traditional cuisine. Owners and staff truly welcoming and kind. I recommend this tavern located in the historic center of Nardò.

Nice and welcoming place, genuine and delicious food. Fairly quick service. I recommend it to everyone.

Descubrimos esta ostería en una tarde lluviosa de diciembre, escondida en una calle lateral. El propietario, presumiblemente Roberto, estaba charlando con un amigo y le pregunté si la ostería estaba abierta (parecía que no). Fuimos recibidos dentro, las luces se encendieron, las mesas se apartaron y el horno se encendió. Todo el tiempo que estuvimos allí, éramos los únicos clientes, y nos trataron bien y servimos buena, honesta, comida casera Puglese. Compartimos una ensalada verde enorme y fresca, con cohete, alcaparras, tomates, queso local y achicoria de invierno, un vegetal nuevo para mí, pero que luego se vio en todos lados en los mercados y en camiones estacionados junto a la carretera. Pedimos platos principales separados y compartidos, pero ambos tenían un sabor bastante similar: un parmesano de berenjena y otro plato de tomate en capas. No eran excepcionales, pero eran auténticos y llenos. Con esto, compartimos una jarra de vino tinto. El café vino con un par de galletas de almendra locales, que son agradables, pero esperábamos un postre más sustancial e interesante. En general, la comida era comida local sólida y el servicio amable y atento, pero no intrusivo. El comedor es un poco oscuro y algo sombrío, pero tal vez en temporada alta turística, se convierte en un refugio fresco del calor.

Excellent food and all fresh. Highly recommended place.

I'll just say one thing, SPECTACULAR!!!

Osteria d'altri tempi. Cibo casalingo di ottima fattura ad un prezzo modico. Atmosfera informale ma curata e professionale. Assolutamente raccomandata

You can't help but take cannulated sagne BUT with turnip greens seasoning in which there is fried breadcrumbs which gives that touch of heaven. ABSOLUTELY TRY IT. Fresh pasta and very good and genuine condiments, not hyper fatty like many others to increase palatability without having the quality of the products on their side. Very good wild vegetables although perhaps a little high in price (8e). In any case, the fairly high price (complained by many) justifies the majority of the dishes, which are truly above average, refined and of true Salento cuisine. A very welcoming, small place that manages to immerse you in the depths of this beautiful land. We will definitely be back to reconnect with good taste.

Such a great little restaurant with such extremely delicious food😍 There may be 5 tables in the restaurant but that's exactly what makes the Italian flair perfect! We didn't even pay €50 for two people and were full (including drinks/wine) Thank you for your good luck! Saluti dalla Svizzera❤️
