Osteria Santa Lucia - Pizzeria In Gioia del colle

17/07/2025: It was late, my toddler was exhausted, but we needed to eat before bed. We walked to a few spots and couldn't eat there, so my husband found this place. Not a bad spot. Unlucky, there aren't high chairs for my toddler who could really use one that night. We ordered and the food was really good. My orriechette was delicious and the plate was deeper than it seemed, perfect for sharing with my toddler. My husband got the tiella, delicious as well. The staff was a little slow though, maybe it was just that night, maybe I was impatient with a tired toddler, but it was slower than I would've liked. I mean, we almost left after getting water we were dealing with meltdowns. But the staff didn't complain, no one did. We calmed down. We ate. Things are looking better so we push it and get dessert. I got the ricotta cheesecake and that was GOOD. My toddler and I were fork jousting over it. Would I say this is an absolute must visit place, maybe not. But if you don't know where to go and want something good, yeah... Give it a try.

17/07/2025: During our 4 days in Bari, we visited several restaurants. However, this one is our greatest discovery. This restaurant is a real culinary adventure, combined with a very pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. I highly recommend it. The tiella is incredibly prepared.
