Trattoria Grottone In Polignano a mare

We had a wonderful lunch — tagliolini ai frutti di mare, perfectly cooked pasta and seafood, followed by a shared frittura that was incredibly fresh, tender, and delicious. All paired with a crisp white wine and a view to die for. Consigliatissimo! While we were there, several tourists were politely turned away — and rightly so. A note for visitors: TOURISTS, PLEASE TAKE NOTE: 1. At any respectable restaurant in Puglia, dress appropriately. Smart casual, dress modestly, no swimwear or flip flops — if it’s too hot, stay at the beach. 2. It’s a restaurant, not a café. Don’t expect to sit down just for dessert, drinks or coffee — that’s what bars are for. 3. Use cutlery. Yes, even for seafood. This isn’t a picnic - respect the local etiquette. 4. Respect the kitchen and its schedule. Lunch is from 12:30 to 2:00pm, dinner from 8:00 to 9:30pm. If you’re allowed to sit outside of these hours, treat it as a massive courtesy — especially at dinner. 5. Ideally, book your table in advance to avoid disappointment.

Casualmente siamo entrati in questo locale.Vista mare stupenda! Buona accoglienza, qualità ottima a prezzi onesti, qualche piccola disattenzione nel servizio, comunque prontamente recuperate. Gustoso, prezzo onesto e vista wow. Consigliatissimo

Location meravigliosa a picco sul mare, cibo ottimo, pesce freschissimo e titolari e staf accoglienti e professionali. Consigliatissimo

Lovely place especially at sunset for the beautiful view, fast and precise service with more than pleasant and friendly staff. Fresh fish and very well prepared. Booking recommended
