29/09/2025: We visited "La Panca 2.0 pizzeria" and were pleasantly surprised. We tried three pizzas, each with very interesting flavor combinations. The first pizza, with yellow datterino tomatoes, caciocavallo materano, and n'duja, offered a remarkable balance between sweetness and spiciness. The second, with yellow datterino tomatoes, capocollo, burrata, crusco peppers, and basil, also proved to be a rich and successful tasting experience. Finally, the third pizza, with Colonnata lardo, ricotta, walnuts, and honey, was a completely new experience that proved to be a surprising and harmonious combination. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for unconventional, high-quality pizzas. A lovely little place with great quality pizzas.

09/10/2025: Located in a quiet alley in the historic center, behind the main Piazza Vittorio Veneto, this restaurant offers top-quality cuisine based on Lucanian ingredients and products, creating an alchemy of new and original flavors while always respecting local traditions. This is thanks to the owner, chef Francesco Abbondanza, who over the years has refined a gastronomic research that was already remarkable in its early days and has now become superlative. All this in an elegant and minimalist setting that, thanks to the perfect lighting and intimate atmosphere despite its spaciousness and airiness, immediately puts you at ease, thanks also to the professionalism and friendliness of the staff (Daniele is top notch!) and the attentiveness of the host. Excellent wine selection! In short, whether for lunch or dinner, L'Abbondanza Lucana is an experience to be enjoyed and savored. And to be relived again, because while it's unforgettable, you'll be longing to return.
