This will be my thousandth visit. And as I always say, "This is home to me." Hospitality, elegance, refinement, generosity, research, curiosity, attentiveness, and food that is pure art, not only in its presentation but also in its palate. Thank you so much.

We dined four courses of a la carte, received fantastic service, very accommodating treatment of our 6yo son, and excellent wines. My favorite two dishes was the raw red prawns in sea urchin sauce and the tuna pasta in a seafood brodo with lemon. I hope the guide will consider awarding Quintessenza two stars next year.

A unique experience! The cuisine, service, and ambiance at Quintessenza truly blew us away. The products used are clearly top-quality. The attention to detail, customer care, and the passion with which the entire team works are immediately evident. A true highlight of the city and local cuisine ♥️

I can only say super, it's a Michelin starred restaurant, the location and the view in front of the queen of Puglia, the Cathedral, and a view of the Castle, a discordant note not due to the restaurant's fault but to the municipal administration which doesn't take care of the moat.

So good, we went twice – a true culinary gem in Trani!
Quintessenza absolutely impressed us. The dishes are refined, creative, and deeply rooted in Apulian tradition. Every detail – from the ingredients to the presentation – was perfectly thought out and beautifully executed.
We ended up dining here twice during our stay because it was simply that good. A special thanks to Domenico, who took care of us both evenings – professional, warm, and genuinely passionate about his work. His service made the experience even more memorable.
The atmosphere is calm, elegant, and welcoming – the perfect setting for a truly special evening.
If you love exceptional food and thoughtful service, this place is a must. Highly recommended!

Location meravigliosa di fronte al castello svevo di Trani, con vista sulle mure del castello, interni bellissimi in pietra arenaria, con ristrutturazione notevole. Eravamo in sei, menù degustazione composto 3 antipasti, 2 primi, 1 secondo e un dolce, oltre agli amuse bouche iniziali e dolcetti pre caffè. Tutto, ma veramente tutto di alto livello, cucina e presentazione dei piatti di altissima qualità, servizio all’altezza del contesto, insomma un luogo imperdibile. Purtroppo tanto lontano da Torino ma quando torneremo in Puglia torneremo senz’altro. Grazie a tutti per la splendida ospitalità.

Simplesmente imperdível. Uma experiência inigualável. Pedimos o menu degustação e foi uma experiência maravilhosa. Tenho restrição alimentar (glúten) e fizeram todo o menú degustação em uma versão gluten free e era simplesmente maravilhoso. Mas não era apenas a comida que era espetacular, tudo era. O prédio era em um local histórico, ao lado do castelo; o atendimento impecável, todos com uma gentileza inigualável. E o chef um querido! Aguardava os clientes na saída. Realmente uma experiência incrível. Não deixem de ir. Se tivesse que escolher apenas um restaurante de toda a minha viagem na Puglia, seguramente seria esse.
