31/07/2025: Hearing about it and trying it are not the same thing. This restaurant has earned my taste buds with its cooking and excellent selection of ingredients. Perched on the rocks of Novaglie (Lecce), set for a festive dinner from sunset (the most romantic time to enjoy it), arranged in keeping with the colors and style of Salento, it's a place that will remain in your heart. The fish has the sea inside it, and the chef arranges it artfully. Freshness and creativity, however, come at a price. The quality-price ratio is decidedly high, but if you decide to try it, you have to enjoy it and that's it. Kudos to the owners who have chosen everything to distinguish themselves and win over the customers. You're definitely worth trying again and again 🤩
30/07/2025: I've been going to this cliffside restaurant for about 15 years, at least once a year. I've seen it expand, grow into a BNB, add loungers, balconies. Location, location, location is beautiful and the live entertainment of cliff divers is a major bonus. My lower rating is for the menu and outrageous pricing. 28€ for a huge plate but tiny portion of pasta with literally two 2.5" scampi the size of my finger! 8€ for a plate of vegetables containing literally four thin slices of aubergine, four half inch slices of red peppers and four inch sized red onions sotto olio. We had to order a second because it was so sparse. Wine is also 28euros a bottle. Coperto 5euros pp for literally two slices of hard speciality bread and two slices of regular bread, do one if our table of five. Luckily I don't eat bread. Not sure I'll continue my annual visits for 50euros a person with no real appetizers, limited pasta options, and couldn't afford a secondo. Shame, they used to be competitively priced. I only marked down service because I made a reservation for a seaside balcony table the day before. Three of five were available upon arrival yet we were seated on a side internal table after I refused a middle table. The waiter was awesome but limited on what he could offer (he checked to see if I could order mussels or vongole since I don't eat scampi, no not available so he promised to have my scampi cleaned but when the spaghetti in tomato sauce showed up and I saw two pieces of scampi sitting next to heads I refused it. Came back with a small portion of spaghetti ( half a normal size portion anywhere else) full of vongole in wine sauce (what I requested in the first place but no longer on the menu)?? My friends had seared Tuna as their main meal. Literally 5 inch squares for again, 28euros! No side salad, nothing extra, but served on the huge platter sized plates, likey spaghetti that only covered the center with at least a three inch gap on all sides. I wish I'd taken pics to express how pitiful they were. Taste was great, just not enough. We left hungry.
