OSTERIA SANT’ANGELO In Gallipoli

Osteria Sant’Angelo – Gallipoli, Italy What a wonderful find! Tucked in the narrow streets of Gallipoli’s old town, Osteria Sant’Angelo turned out to be one of the best meals of my trip. The setting is charming — stone walls, soft lighting, and that unmistakable southern Italian warmth that makes you feel instantly at home. I started with a seafood appetizer that was as fresh as it gets, followed by homemade pasta that tasted like it came straight from a family kitchen. Everything was simple, honest, and full of flavor — exactly what good Italian cooking should be. The staff were fantastic: friendly, attentive, and genuinely proud of what they serve. They recommended a local white wine that paired perfectly with the meal. Dessert — a classic tiramisù — was the perfect finish. If you’re in Gallipoli and want a true taste of Puglia, don’t miss this place. Osteria Sant’Angelo isn’t just a restaurant — it’s an experience that captures the heart of Italy: good food, good wine, and good people.

Delicious meal, fresh and good food, very helpful service, we recommend!

A delightful place in the heart of the old city where we celebrated my firstborn's eighteenth birthday. Fresh fish, cooked with care and refinement. New and sophisticated dishes. Attentive and friendly staff. Completely satisfied, I thank the owner and all his staff. Highly recommended.

At first, we were a little hesitant because the restaurant was completely empty. But the restaurant quickly filled up. We had the mussels for starters, the tagliatelle with seafood and truffles, and the rabioli with seafood for our first course. We then had the baked swordfish (Gallipoli style) and a mixed salad. For dessert, we enjoyed spumone. The fresh tagliatelle is especially recommended. We highly recommend the rest of the dishes, too!

The place is pleasant, the service efficient and courteous. The dishes are okay, nothing special, the value for money is not great.

I would say it’s a “3 stars” in total. Service was slow, food was so and so, I expected much more from a restaurant with that high review ranking.

One of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at. We went back the next day for more, and it was even better. The quality of the ingredients, the delicate preparation, and the friendliness of the staff made dinner a truly enjoyable experience. Excellent!

Perfect all around. Delicious fish, good and friendly service—at least the young waiter who served us was—and a lovely ambiance in a quieter alley away from the crowds. The only thing that annoyed us a bit was that we stopped by at 6:30 p.m. to reserve a table and were rather harshly turned away by an older waiter, who told us they didn't open until 7:30 p.m., but at least we were able to make a reservation. When we arrived shortly before 7:30 p.m., however, almost all the tables were already occupied, and some even had food already served.
