Osteria Sant'Anna In Cisternino

Wonderful atmosphere, a hidden gem with EXCELLENT service and had gluten free and dairy free options!

A beautiful location and an interesting menu with modern reinterpretations of traditional Apulian flavors, in addition to the great classics prepared with great care. The service is very professional, and the location is stunning. I'd like to take this opportunity to encourage the staff after the negative review by Ruben D, who preceded me on this platform and was sitting with his family at the table next to ours. The man in question spent the entire evening complaining about the poor quality of the food and service. De gustibus, given that the spaghetti with sea urchins, which the gentleman said was under-seasoned, is what you see in the photo (which was delicious). What I'd like to criticize the gentleman for is the unpleasantness with which he treated the staff and the lack of class with which he loudly launched into negative comments. The climax came when, after ordering dessert, he said to the diners, "This waiter is a drug addict." We didn't notice, as he was super attentive and professional with us. Unlike the dear customer, who kept saying that Puglia has become a tourist playground: perhaps, but fortunately he is not an attraction, and thank goodness for that.

We've been twice in three days. Delicious!

The food is very good, especially the sweet egg finish. Delicious. However, I would say the staff could be improved. Professional, yes, but not very smiling and friendly.

Really good food, well-organized restaurant, very family-friendly. I really liked the ambiance and the light makes the restaurant more charming. My congratulations to the super attentive waiter.

A wonderful evening. We went on August 14, 2025, to an event where they set up many stands with everything... a cheesemaker preparing freshly made nodini and burrata, hanged caciocavallo, fritters, panzerotti, battered vegetables, various pizzas, seafood cavatelli, other excellent pastas, even the (sublime) desserts of tette delle monache sporcamuss and cannoli. I've definitely forgotten anything else... The evening was enlivened by a group playing and dancing pizzica and tarantella. What more could you ask for for a carefree evening!!! The only complaint is that the cocktails were tasteless. Definitely worth repeating

We dined at this restaurant during the Apulian evening, and it was an unforgettable experience. Excellent food: from the freshest mozzarella and burrata prepared to order, to the fragrant panzerotti and pasta dishes, including delicious vegetarian options. The mouth-watering desserts were a perfect end to the meal. Impeccable, attentive, and friendly service. The entertainment was wonderful, with the band performing captivating traditional Apulian songs. An excellent experience with truly remarkable value.

Excellent place with parking. Excellent food and good service.

Muy buen servicio y buena comida El restaurante ha sido renovado recientemente y es muy agradable por dentro. El propietario nos dio dos de los restaurantes recién renovados y la camarera hablaba muy bien inglés.

Ci siamo stati per un ricevimento di amici. Tutto squisito, antipasto di benvenuto servito nell’area esterna molto ricco e originale, compreso piatto per mia figlia celiaca. Antipasti al tavolo buonissimi così come i primi e il secondo e il dolce. L’area interna e’ ampia e spaziosa i tavoli sono disposti con larghi spazi e comodi. C’è una zona esterna curata e i bagni puliti. Personale gentilissimo e sorridente. Sicuramente da consigliare!
