I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina lucana

05/10/2025: We stumbled upon it by chance during our trip, and we had a wonderful meal! Franco and the friends we met during lunch made this day unforgettable ❤️

02/10/2025: Highest quality, local products at fair and not excessive prices, within the norm. The quantity of food on the plates is negligible, despite the aforementioned quality. Spectacular location, worth experiencing. Excellent service and very welcoming staff. Try it, you won't regret it.

11/10/2025: Very elegant restaurant. Very clean rooms. Friendly staff. Superlative food and an excellent wine list. The owner is constantly seeking out the best his region has to offer to satisfy even the most demanding palates. One visit isn't enough to try everything. Definitely recommended.

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.

13/09/2025: A pleasant surprise in Tito Scalo. Mr. Rocco is a true host who immediately puts new customers at ease. The food is excellent, authentic Lucanian home cooking, with many of the ingredients locally sourced and produced on-site. Highly recommended.

11/09/2025: Recommended for those who love traditional Lucanian cuisine, hearty dishes, and a welcoming atmosphere. Ideal for family lunches or dinners with friends. Excellent value.

03/10/2025: Very charming restaurant. Found out it is family owned. You can definitely tell. The service was excellent and food was outstanding! Would definitely go back for dinner.

03/10/2025: Everything was excellent and surprising. We went at a friend's invitation. It's well located, close to Termini, and you can walk to several places. We had a heart-shaped ravioli starter. That's when we realized that Romans prefer pasta al dente, and for us, it was excellent, just right, and delicious. Then we had Amatriciana, melt-in-your-mouth and spicy—yes, for those who don't expect it, it can be spicy. Next, we had Cacio e Pepe, which has a lot of cheese and a bit of pepper. It's the main dish, and it came from Monte Caruso, and it has an original recipe. And then we continued with a delicious and succulent polpette con pomodoro, which comes with fresh tomatoes. A wonderful experience. And to finish, a dessert with a demonstration by Chef Emanuele preparing Dolce far niente. I highly recommend ending with this dessert. The atmosphere is rustic, romantic, and a pleasant place to linger. Right at the entrance, as you go down, there's a wall with various messages, including from famous Italian figures. And the decor is the work of fellow chef Mr. Domenico. If you truly want to experience authentic and delicious Roman cuisine, we recommend Cicilardone a Monte Caruso. And come back again.

22/09/2025: Delicious dishes, soft pizza with a light crust. I really enjoyed the "contadina" pizza. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

15/09/2025: The friendliness and attention to customers are evident, and you can tell by booking over the phone. This time we tried the pizzas, and they were delicious. We'll be back to enjoy other delicacies. Highly recommended.

03/10/2025: Excellent food, good service, only criticism small portions

04/08/2025: A restaurant I'll definitely return to. We ate wonderfully. The place is filled with trophies and the atmosphere is pleasant.

15/10/2025: In recent years I have often observed that in Italian restaurants the chefs are of colored,,g origin. And the food prepared by them has nothing to do with real Italian restaurants. I am disappointed once again.

08/10/2025: Thank you, Giorgia. I hope I'm remembering your name correctly (I have a certain memory). Your professionalism, kindness, courtesy, and advice made my last evening in Matera wonderful. Another wonderful memory to add to this fabulous tourist experience. Excellent food, impeccable service, and a fair price.

22/09/2025: Great Service, good Ambiente, but the Pasta and the Risotto were really disappointing. In particular the Risotto seriously missed the point of a serious and deed Taste. The Pepper Starters were good.

02/09/2025: A restaurant with refined traditional cuisine, dishes that recall tradition but with a personal touch. The service was welcoming and attentive, creating a pleasant atmosphere.

03/05/2025: Ottimo, il cibo buono e abbondante, personale gentilissimo e cordiale, anche la struttura esterna è molto bella, davvero consigliato

01/05/2025: Consigliatissimo per la gentilezza e l'accoglienza del personale, per l'autenticità e genuinità dei piatti con porzioni generose e per il conto più che onesto. Da tornarci assolutamente

28/09/2025: This is a touristy restaurant. The food is very poor quality and poorly cooked. The owner has little desire to do well. I recommend going elsewhere for authentic local cuisine.

08/09/2025: Excellent, friendly, and courteous service. Large, clean space. Good quality food. Excellent value for money.

30/09/2025: A truly delicious lunch in this charming, well-run restaurant with a small but functional fireplace. The appetizers were varied and carefully selected, with locally sourced ingredients. Excellent value for money.

21/09/2025: We ate well, the staff was kind and polite.

27/09/2025: We had lunch here and it was delicious. The atmosphere is a bit dated, but it feels like a typical tavern, and the food is high-quality, with both the first and second courses excellent. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Perfect for a traditional lunch!

11/09/2025: Great experience. We felt at ease and enjoyed the food. Rocco and Michele were great for their hospitality and service!

04/09/2025: A quaint and quite welcoming place. It's a shame they don't follow the menu, or rather, some dishes don't reflect what's written on the menu. If we order four starters of porcini orecchiette and truffle cream, you can't serve us orecchiette with a mix of mushrooms like sautéed in a pan (with all due respect to those who eat them) thinking I won't notice... Furthermore, after having pointed this out to the wait staff, we expected it to at least not be included in the full-price bill! But no! €12 for a simple plate of orecchiette with mushrooms. What a shame!

30/08/2025: We stopped for dinner at a table outside, everything was ok, at a certain point the waiters disappeared to reinforce the inside part... a long wait for the 🍕.

30/09/2025: Nice place. Appreciable service. Interesting menu. Excellent dessert.

28/09/2025: I ate at Pane e Lavoro in Rotondella: the food was good and well-prepared, and the prices were average. The only thing I should mention was the slightly longer wait than expected. Overall, a positive experience.

07/10/2025: The restaurant was recommended by our hotel. But the mother and daughter are the rudest people I've ever met in the hospitality industry. The daughter literally just stood there and whinged about every table. Also, if you don't leave a tip, you don't get a bell ring. Which is a sign of total disrespect. I think it's time to retire, because I have a feeling you've lost your way. The restaurant was recommended by our hotel.

07/10/2025: We went because it was recommended to us by the place we were staying. The first night, three of us went at 8:30 p.m. and they kicked us out because they didn't have a free table, without giving us the chance to wait. We went again at 7:50 p.m. the next day and were able to get in. The food was delicious, and the waiters were very friendly. For dessert, we ordered tiramisu, which was also delicious. The food and value for money are highly recommended. Recommendation: Go before opening or go when the first group of people have finished dinner, but they close at 10 p.m. Getting in is a random process.
