I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina pugliese

14/09/2025: We had a wonderful experience at Quintessenza. We experienced the Quintessenziale menu along with wine pairing and we enjoyed every single dish. The service and the atmosphere were exceptional. We enjoyed a lot the details provided by the very kind and professional staff. We highly recommend the experience!

13/09/2025: Easily 5 stars. Nothing to dislike, everything to love. The best meal we had in Puglia. The best service we had in Puglia. The best conversation we had in Puglia. If you're looking at the Michelin guide and debating where to dine while in Puglia, make sure Quintessenza is on your list. Candidly, we didn't have great luck with a couple of Michelin recommendations in other cities earlier in our trip. However, Quintessenza helped us end our trip on a high note. We did the Classici tasting menu, and not one bite disappointed. Think of it this way, if you want to experience the classic flavors of Puglia using the highest quality ingredients in an accessible atmosphere presented through a fine dining lens via a highly skilled modern interpretation backed by knowledgeable and supremely friendly service, then Quintessenza is an easy choice for you. Here's your dilemma though. If you eat here early in your trip, nothing else may compare, and if you eat here late in your trip, you'll likely forget all the other places you ate.

21/08/2025: We had dinner yesterday with our friends....what can I say...fabulous dishes, excellent food and hospitality...an experience definitely worth repeating.

20/08/2025: I discovered this place by chance while walking around looking for a greengrocer! Intrigued, we booked that same evening....I must admit, I had a great time!!! The place is very welcoming, small, and intimate! The staff is very helpful with any questions, always with a smile and good advice (in my case, wine). The food is excellent, fresh fish, very generous dishes, and they leave just the right amount of time between each course! What can I say? It's absolutely worth trying! I'll be back very willingly. What are you waiting for?

14/09/2025: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is without a doubt the best restaurant I've ever experienced. From the greeting to the farewell, every moment was thoughtful and warm—you immediately feel welcome and well looked after. The service was exceptional: attentive, competent, and never intrusive. Recommendations were given personally and expertly and hit the mark for us. The food was simply sensational. Each course was perfectly seasoned, with fresh, high-quality ingredients and a wonderful balance between creativity and tradition. The presentation was beautiful, the portions just right—you could taste the attention to detail in every bite. I would particularly like to highlight the wine pairing: the selection was first-class, and the food pairings took the whole experience to a new level. The ambiance also contributes to the experience: elegant, cozy, yet casual—ideal for a special evening. The value for money, in my opinion, is absolutely spot on, given the quality of the food, wine, and service. An all-around memorable experience that I highly recommend. We'll definitely be back! 🍷

08/09/2025: Spectacular. Everything is top-notch. It's worth coming to this place even if you're many kilometers away in Puglia. Trust me. They divide the portions for you, and the homemade pasta is top-notch. The appetizers have truly unique flavors. Top-notch prices. Coffee served in a moka pot.

09/09/2025: Great food, bright atmosphere, excellent table service. Very noisy patrons.

01/09/2025: The food here was simply fantastic. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I can recommend it with a clear conscience.

21/08/2025: We visited Farmacia dei Sani in Ruffano and had a wonderful experience! The gourmet cuisine was truly surprising, with simple dishes but thoughtful and original pairings. We chose the six-course blind menu and were delighted with the surprise and quality of the dishes. The staff was very attentive and professional, and the service was fast and precise. The attached liquor store is also a great addition; I tried one of their liqueurs and I must say it was excellent! We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a high-quality culinary experience.

19/08/2025: Well done. Well done. You might not like it, as happens with strong personalities: compact menu, distinct flavors, clear choices. But you don't have to please everyone: the Cavallo Sgombroto (a reinterpretation of vitello tonnato) is a prime example. Spaghettoni with excellent anchovy sauce, superb ice cream stick... and so on. Incidentally, the village where you can stroll after dinner is delightful. Average €60 and worth every penny.

20/08/2025: Excellent restaurant, polite and attentive staff, very well-kept location and excellent food

18/08/2025: Everything is 5 stars. Nothing to add, nothing to subtract.

08/09/2025: Excellent seafood restaurant in Vignola. The appetizers and raw fish are always top-notch, and the seafood entrees are unique. Highly recommended.

17/08/2025: Excellent seafood and typical Apulian cuisine, the manager is kind and friendly, as are the waiters.

19/08/2025: Everything was good and everyone was friendly. The menu, however, hasn't changed for years!

08/08/2025: Beautiful place, super waiters, delicious food, and perfect pairings. The fennel digestif and the fabulous Padre Peppe are delicious. I'll definitely be back.

24/07/2025: Aside from the fact that everything is delicious, I've been eating spaghetti allo scoglio for years and I can say that they are the best in the world.

22/07/2025: One of Bologna's best restaurants, run with love and professionalism by two brothers from Puglia who have perfectly integrated into the local scene. Their handmade tortellini are the envy of many locals, their Apulian antipasti, featuring jars of pickled vegetables and cheeses, are a hit, as are their traditional Bolognese and Apulian dishes. During the summer, they also offer a truly rich and delicious seafood menu... What more can I say? Definitely worth a try and... definitely coming back! Well done guys!

18/08/2025: They hosted us one rainy spring evening, when there was no room anywhere or other restaurants were closed. The food was great, the wine too. The atmosphere of a real Italian tavern. Highly recommended!

14/08/2025: Great atmosphere! Very welcoming place and great staff! Excellent food! Thanks to all the staff!

13/09/2025: We had lunch outside; the place is truly enchanting. The menu includes both meat and fish; we only had fish, and I must say it was all very good, and the portions were quite generous. The service is impeccable; the waitresses are very kind and describe each dish perfectly. The prices aren't low, but considering the quality of the place, that's acceptable.

10/09/2025: Magnificent experience, stunning venue, friendly and super kind staff, definitely worth repeating.

08/09/2025: A wonderful surprise! Top Meats

02/09/2025: It was good. An extraordinary meal. Magnificent. A taste like home. Lilly is Verona from Luxembourg

25/08/2025: The trattoria advertised as the best in town was a bit of a disappointment. We tried five dishes and appetizers. The meat platter and the slow-braised lamb were very good. The rabbit pasta was tasty, although the rabbit was token. The orchette with tomato sauce was decent but not outstanding, and the eggplant lasagna wasn't to our liking. The wait for a waiter was very long, and the second bottle of water we ordered didn't arrive, but it was on the bill. And the wait for the bill...

24/08/2025: Delicious food, nice setting, excellent service

16/07/2025: Welcoming and professional atmosphere. Friendly and attentive staff. Excellent food and traditional Apulian cuisine. PS: The waiter is very friendly.
