I migliori ristoranti in Basilicata

24/10/2025: They don't give discounts and they charge tourists like us double because they don't have a table displayed.

11/09/2025: I bought some delicious sweets from this pastry shop.

08/11/2025: I visited this establishment in the early afternoon, regularly consumed food, and when it came time to use the restroom, I was denied access. The reason given by the indifferent lady at the counter was that the restrooms were "being cleaned" at that precise moment, that is, during full business hours and serving the public. I find this behavior not only disrespectful, but totally unacceptable for a business that serves food and beverages and is obligated to provide restroom facilities to paying customers. Cleaning that completely prevents restroom use during peak hours/afternoon (after a customer has just consumed food) demonstrates a serious lack of organization and attention to the basic needs of customers. Restrooms are not an extra, but a basic necessity. I will not return to a establishment that treats its customers this way. I advise management to review their cleaning policies, perhaps performing them before opening or on a rotating basis, without blocking the only available resource.

26/10/2025: We stopped just for coffee. The lovely waitress advised us on our choice! I had a delicious Crema al caffe. Fantastic! The only downside is the so-called Coperto added to the bill!

07/11/2025: Not recommended, very slow service, expensive for what it offers, and you have to repeat things 5 ​​times and maybe you'll get the drinks

25/10/2025: Terrible experience. The only redeeming feature was the appetizers, inedible sandwiches with no sauce at all and a minimal amount of caciocavallo cheese. I was celebrating my graduation and we were told that drinks were included (both water and other drinks). Later, the owner said only water was included, so he charged for it separately. He was asked several times during the call if drinks were included. Report.

18/09/2025: The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating on multiple levels. The waiter was friendly and professional. The food was good, but we didn't find the quality to justify the high prices. The mixed cod appetizer tasted like little, served with more sauce than cod. The orecchiette were good, and the softened cod was also tasty, but it, too, had the cod smell. I'd return at least for the pizza. The menu's design was poor, with colorful pages and grayscale printing.

01/08/2025: We booked a table but then waited a long time to order and eat...

05/12/2025: If you're looking for delicious spaghetti with clams, La Pineta restaurant is the place to be. If you want to eat seafood in a meat-centric area, stop by La Pineta restaurant in Baragiano Scalo, especially on Wednesdays and Fridays, for competitive prices.

19/08/2025: If you have 4 hours for lunch, it's ideal... Nothing to say

14/09/2025: Everything is excellent, nothing to add.

18/08/2025: Nice place, good aperitif, excellent desserts. The only downside is the attitude of one of the employees, she seems to be snobbish! She snorts in your face even when you simply ask her to pay (and it's not the first time she's done it)... (advice) Maybe she should change jobs. The place deserves to be enhanced with a little courtesy and a smile!

02/10/2025: First of all, the excellent quality of the food, a warm and familiar atmosphere, what can I say, an experience to be repeated over time

14/07/2025: Please remember that customers always have the right to express their opinion, even if it's simply a comment about a price difference, even if it's just a euro. Rescinding someone's opinion without a real reason or logic is neither a sign of good manners nor respect. Courtesy, especially in a business open to the public, should be a fundamental value. It's always possible to learn it, if you really want it.

21/09/2025: Overpriced for what you get. A mediocre panzerotto costs €6, not to mention the rest of the products. A tourist trap masquerading as a traditional bakery, with the bare minimum of service.

18/09/2025: A bakery with a unique atmosphere. Typically local products.

15/08/2025: After a morning spent among the serene waterfalls of San Fele, we chose L'Usignolo restaurant for our Ferragosto lunch. The experience, however, was marred by a few disappointing details worth mentioning. At the time of booking, we were asked for a 50% deposit via bank transfer, an unusual practice, but one we accepted given the unique nature of the day. Upon our arrival, before even being seated, we were asked to pay the full amount for lunch. This approach, more akin to that of a fast-food restaurant than a traditional restaurant, created a rather unpleasant and unwelcoming atmosphere. Once inside, the setting truly transported us to the past. The decor, seemingly from the 1970s with a slight update in the 1990s, has remained unchanged over time. Despite the feeling of a place "frozen in time," the overall cleanliness and order were not lacking. To complete the experience, live music in the style of a Romagna dance hall accompanied our meal, an element that, unfortunately, didn't fit well with the idea of a relaxed lunch. The menu matched the restaurant's retro atmosphere. We tried dishes such as mezzepccheri with confit cherry tomatoes, speck, and chopped pistachios, a lasagna with artichokes and béchamel sauce, and roast suckling pig with potatoes. Despite our concerns about the ambiance, the food was a positive: the dishes were decidedly enjoyable and well-prepared. L'Usignolo restaurant offers honest and enjoyable cuisine, but the overall experience was marred by inattentive customer service and a dated atmosphere. If you're looking for good food and don't mind an old-fashioned setting (and paying in advance), it might be a decent choice, but for a more modern and welcoming experience, you might want to look elsewhere.

21/06/2025: The environment needs to be totally renovated, the place is terrible and the food is indescribable. Friendly staff

28/10/2025: I have to go for unloading Pisticci,then i decided to stay overnight here ,parking was quite

23/10/2025: Honestly, I've never seen such a dirty place, the staff was rude... never again in a place like that.... I had a coffee and it was literally undrinkable and some chips for the trip that were months out of date.

30/10/2025: What can I say!!! Fantastic place, and the food is truly delicious! It's become my favorite place! Kudos to the owner, Vito, who is incredibly kind. We'll be back whenever we can! A round of applause also for the fried crusco peppers, which not everyone knows how to make the most of! Crispy and cooked to perfection. I'm giving it 5 stars because I can't give more, but it deserves more! See you next time

20/10/2025: On the phone, when you call to make a reservation, Vito answers with a beautiful, clear, and clear voice. When you meet him for the first time at his restaurant, you'll find a passionate, meticulous, and very organized restaurateur in his small, open kitchen, where he reigns supreme. He knows how to guide you through your choices, offering a rich platter of appetizers, enhanced this season with porcini mushrooms (which he himself picks in the Sila mountains), roasted and sliced ​​into carpaccio. The menu also features excellent first courses, just the right number (3), and a wide variety of meats that you can already enjoy with your eyes, all on display in the aging cells or at least displayed at the counter. The wine selection is good. The bill is fair. Thanks Vito, we'll definitely see you again.

16/10/2025: Cold environment, poor quality food and lousy service.. AVOID

07/12/2025: Delivered piping hot directly to your camper...SUPER!!! Delicious pizza!!!

31/08/2025: I've been there several times, but each time the lady hasn't been very friendly, rather grumpy. The price list at the entrance isn't up to date, so you have to add a minimum of €1 to each pizza—surprise! I'll give the girls at the cash register 5 stars.

05/10/2025: The room and bathroom were spacious, with a large window and mountain views. The furnishings were a bit dated but well-maintained, and the housekeeping was excellent. The dinner was very good, with well-seasoned pasta and tasty meat. We also tried the pizza, which was excellent! The ingredients were fresh. The owner was very kind and helpful.

06/09/2025: A simply surreal experience. There were 12 of us, including 7 children, and we just wanted to order pizzas for dinner. I showed up at 7:30 PM to place my order and pay in advance: the response was, "We don't take orders. Come at 9:00 PM and we'll make them for you." Unusual, but I trusted them. At 9:00 PM I returned, hoping that at least the children could eat. The lady at the cash register—rude and clearly annoyed—didn't even have the courage to look in: she disappeared. After minutes of waiting, I asked the pizza chef, who started counting the dough balls and candidly told me, "I can't make them for you." No explanation, no alternative. Just a dismissal with, "Go ahead, there's another pizzeria." The result? A broken promise, no professionalism, total disorganization, and zero respect for families with children. I've never had a similar experience at any other pizzeria. If you want a quiet and reliable evening, the advice is only one: go elsewhere.

05/09/2025: I can't review it was closed for weekly rest
