Terra Ristorante & Tapas bar In Lecce

Elegant place, good service (but it would have been better to peel all the raw fish on the plate), fair price, very central location. Fresh fish and quality products. I didn't appreciate the window seating, as it lacks privacy from the outside. Good food, anyway.

The best restaurant in Lecce, in Puglia, and among the best in Italy. An absolutely sublime gastronomic experience. The chef demonstrates extraordinary mastery, transforming excellent raw materials into dishes that are true works of art. The fish is incredibly fresh, literally alive until moments before preparation, treated with respect and impeccable technique. Each dish expresses balance, elegance, and depth of flavor, without ever losing the authenticity of the sea. Stunning presentations, obsessive attention to detail, and a tasting menu that surprises from start to finish. Professional service, a refined setting, and an atmosphere that make the experience memorable. It's more than just a restaurant: it's haute cuisine taken to excellence. A benchmark for Lecce, Puglia, and the entire Italian restaurant scene. 🔝 Highly recommended. A place to return to, again and again.

Alex is a great restaurant. We went for New Year's day lunch and the food was very really very good, the ambience is nice, the styling modern and the attention to customer satisfaction is of a very high standard. Antonio, who served us, was incredibly charming and perfectly attentive to our needs. To cap it all off, the tiramisu was amazing 😍

Excellent fish and very kind and helpful staff

The dishes are good and balanced, though I might have made some portions a little larger. The menu offers options for all dietary needs. The staff is very friendly and professional.

The food was excellent, exactly as expected! Excellent service, especially thanks to Antonio for his professionalism, kindness, and friendliness! We'll be back!

The waiter Antonio was super kind and gave me some good recommendations. Thank you so much. The veal fillet was exquisite and the tiramisu was also delicious.

I ate at Ristorante Alex in Lecce and had a truly wonderful time. The food is delicious, with attention to every detail and fresh ingredients that you can taste from the first bite. The staff is friendly, helpful, and always attentive, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The dining room is welcoming and elegant, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing lunch or dinner. Highly recommended!

Honestly, I expected more. The food is good but not wow-worthy. The staff is smug. Not suitable for groups or people who speak loudly. Suitable for couples.

We had lunch here, choosing the tasting menu. The food was truly good, especially the raw fish and the tagliolini with lemon, stracciatella, and shrimp tartare. As for the service, it didn't live up to the cuisine. One unpleasant incident: the waiter who served us the wine completely ignored the idea that a woman might understand anything about wine, showing the label and allowing only the man to taste the wine (a bit too sexist in 2025).
