15/02/2026: Delicious dishes, attentive service, excellent dinner!!

08/02/2026: Sublime! Exceptional! Delightful! Excellent food, even though I had second courses, my palate really enjoyed it.

02/02/2026: Passion and education are paramount in this business. The quality of the food and the attention to detail in the plating are the hallmarks, and the owner and staff are committed to making their customers feel at ease.

28/01/2026: Excellent dinner with a nice selection of natural wines

25/01/2026: Great restaurant and absolutely divine pasta. Great waiter who served us today, very nice and helpful. Beautiful environment where you will enjoy your food. Definitely try it

25/01/2026: The best pasta I've ever eaten. I definitely recommend visiting! And the waiter was also great, friendly and very nice!

12/03/2026: Excellent service, delicious pesto pasta, come without hesitation, you will be well received!

23/01/2026: I went here with my boyfriend on New Year's Eve. There's no fixed New Year's Eve menu; we ordered what we liked from the menu and everything was delicious. The veal rolls with tomato sauce reminded me of Sunday lunches at my grandmother's. Celebrating New Year's Eve at 'Scante was like celebrating at home, thanks to the welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, the extremely kind and friendly staff, and the authentic flavors of our region. Highly recommended!

06/12/2025: Everything was wonderful, including the bill.

03/11/2025: After two months of waiting, we finally went to lunch at the famous Il Capriccio restaurant. What a disappointment! The much-vaunted and highly praised tagliolini all'aragostella (lobster-like tagliolini) is nothing more than a mass of pasta with a questionable pulp (lobster?) mixed with a lot of cream. But can you serve a fish dish(?) with cream? An experience I'll never forget.

18/02/2026: Off-season (February), the welcome was very friendly, the service quick and efficient, the food excellent (pork knuckle, cuttlefish, lamb, or spaghetti—all perfect), the menu concise with a limited selection of dishes, which is a guarantee of quality, very few tables, and an old-fashioned decor under a stone vaulted ceiling—we were delighted. And to top it all off, a very well-stocked whisky cellar!

18/02/2026: Excellent restaurant, equivalent to a two-star establishment in France in my opinion, at a very reasonable price considering the quality of the ingredients. Everything was delicious and prepared with care. Note that there are only a few tables available.

06/03/2026: Excellent dishes and flavors. Marianna and Francesco are two wonderful people who make you feel at home... well done 👌👏👏🤗

06/03/2026: Excellent food Friendly and warm owners. Spotlessly clean place. 5 stars.

28/02/2026: The atmosphere is relaxed. The wine is expensive.

17/02/2026: This was my first time at this restaurant for dinner, and I brought some friends and locals to this simple, historic, but charming and comfortable place. We ordered a sampling of various appetizers, typical of southern Puglia, the traditional home-style cuisine of Salento, from octopus with burrata to burrata with sardines, and other appetizers, all delicious, flavorful, and very inviting. Then we had a first course of orecchiette and a type of pasta similar to elongated trofie with mini meatballs in tomato sauce—an excellent dish for connoisseurs of Puglian cuisine. Then we had a puree of broad beans with chicory. We drank a very good Puglian rosé wine. The restaurant has an excellent large cellar of local and national wines. The young staff who served us was very knowledgeable and courteous. Highly recommended for connoisseurs of the cuisine of this wonderful Italy, in every region the true richness of this nation. Congratulations!

28/02/2026: Highly recommend! Especially on Fridays, when they offer a seafood menu. They use top-quality products, especially the freshest ingredients, which are cooked to perfection. The restaurant isn't particularly large, but it's very welcoming. The service is quick and attentive to your needs. There's free parking nearby, which is great for a city like Merano, where parking is usually difficult. If I had to offer constructive criticism, the only one I can think of is the pepper on the lobster linguine; it may have masked the flavor a bit. Otherwise, everything was perfect! The prices are more than fair. I'll definitely be back.

13/02/2026: I recommend everyone to try the cuisine! Very fresh ingredients and friendly staff.

24/02/2026: We waited an hour longer than our scheduled time. They seated us next to the entrance door, and it goes without saying that the situation inside and outside hadn't changed... it was freezing. I asked the waiter to move us, and he obliged with some difficulty. The food wasn't anything spectacular; in fact, I was very disappointed. Of everything we ordered, the only thing I truly enjoyed was the sausage in tomato sauce and the excellent ricotta with jam; the rest was flavorless tagliolini, with two scampi, and the rest were shrimp... I hope they improve.

09/02/2026: I've had tastier pastas. This deserves a 4.

10/03/2026: Three of us had dinner here by chance, having asked a passerby for something traditional. Enzo was number one, he should be the mayor of Bari!! The staff makes you feel at home, the traditional dishes are fantastic, the bombette in particular melted in your mouth.

06/03/2026: Rather than the tavern of the harpies it should have been called the tavern of robberies... paying for two plates of orecchiette with sauce 40 euros... which honestly I cook better at home not even handmade they seemed cooked in the microwave despite the fact that we are in Bari and orecchiette should be a cheap dish but these were orecchiette from the supermarket... so 2 plates of orecchiette a cheese board only including three mozzarella balls and there were two of us two glasses of wine 81 euros and I didn't have the euro I was asked explicitly to say we have to rip you off completely... maybe they thought we were Americans given my wife's blond hair but we are from Taranto who honestly even if criticized with 81 euros the whole family eats better and without robberies

18/01/2026: Welcoming place, excellent local dishes, highly recommended

16/01/2026: In the heart of the ancient village of Altamura, there is a precious place that encapsulates the history of Puglia's food and wine tradition, and in particular the "AltaMurgiana" region. Typical and authentic dishes are served and explained with expert care. We were welcomed with great warmth and "pampered" from the appetizers to the homemade desserts. Each dish, prepared with love, expresses all the experience and infinite passion of Mr. Peppino and his wife Irene. Dining at CENZINO is not only a delicious experience, but also a cultural one. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

25/09/2025: Perfect dinner. Very fresh sea bream. Well-prepared dishes. Large, well-spaced tables. We had a great time.

21/12/2025: Called in this afternoon for an after-theater event! An entire theater company, literally pampered with their courtesy and their fresh, top-quality dishes! Excellent wine... Friendly and helpful service despite the very late hour! A heartfelt thank you, from a hungry actor... and deliciously satisfied! ❤️❤️❤️

29/10/2025: A quaint, family-friendly atmosphere, friendly and engaging service, and an excellent Apulian cuisine experience, as it should be! 🥰 Thank you!

07/03/2026: If you let them know in advance, they can satisfy every culinary craving. A magnificent discovery.
