I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina pugliese in Puglia

03/05/2026: I come in and ask for availability for 4 people. The person who welcomes me almost kicks me out.

30/04/2026: We wanted to eat something typical of the area and that's why we chose this restaurant. Keep in mind its opening hours. We chose a lunch visit because we are not fans of late dinners.. The atmosphere is a bit simple (with tiles like a bathroom). The menu has horse meat dishes, which are typical of the area. I recommend the meatballs with tomato sauce (the meatballs are very flaky). We also tried beans with pasta, which is not bad, but there are no spices, and this makes it tasteless. The dessert is top... The service is fast, without unnecessary courtesies... As almost everywhere in Italy there is a service charge per person (even if you are not very happy 😉🤨😵‍💫).. We were lucky without a reservation for late lunch.

02/06/2026: Not a good experience. Supermarket ravioli, rather muddled flavors that have little of the "old world" about them. Fried seafood was acceptable. The house rosé wine was sweetish... What can I say, a disappointment! N.B. Prices are low, but that doesn't justify...

02/05/2026: A place with heart and substance. Everything else is boring. The food was delicious, and the staff worked hard to make you feel good. The atmosphere is historic and rustic, just the right amount.

12/05/2026: Excellent experience Welcoming family atmosphere Authentic products Kindness

03/05/2026: Everything was really good, a family-run inn run with the passion to do things well! We'll definitely be back!

08/06/2026: A unique experience... the place is delightful, a stunning corner of Salento... the food is truly excellent, there are so many appetizers, but each bowl brings a classic flavor created by a skilled hand... not to mention the homemade ice cream... let's not forget the professional service... efficient but with the ability to make you feel at home... highly recommended.

04/06/2026: Excellent location. Excellent and varied food. Professionalism and hospitality deserve top marks. I will gladly return. Highly recommended. The owner, Tonio, is very professional and knowledgeable in the field.

02/06/2026: My husband and I wanted to try the local bombette. I found this restaurant on Google with good reviews, but I have to say that after trying their food and service, my rating is much higher. From the courtesy of Mrs. Francesca, to the overall service, to the exquisite food. Everything was top-notch. So good, we even bought some meat for home. Exceptional!

02/06/2026: A wonderful find in Cisternino for a couples dinner! The atmosphere is incredibly quaint, with tables set along the town's typical alleys. We had a divine dinner, sampling traditional dishes: a creamy fava bean and chicory purée and the ever-present bombette, delicious in both the classic and special versions. The price was very fair and excellent value. PS: If you decide to book, they'll answer by 7:30 PM, then you'll have to wait in line.

23/05/2026: Excellent food, exquisite hospitality, and a charming atmosphere. Discovering this osteria is one of life's pleasures. Congratulations!

11/05/2026: Very beautiful and quaint place, the food is very good. A little disappointed with the service; we didn't get a chance to read a menu; in fact, we were told the menu verbally. Otherwise, everything was perfect, the waitress was very kind!

14/06/2026: True Italian Sunday lunch - lots of families, conversation and joy. Want to be back already!

07/06/2026: We went to this restaurant to celebrate an event. We had a wonderful meal, excellent service, and the staff was kind and helpful.

01/05/2026: Very warm welcome and many vegetarian options from local cuisine.

24/04/2026: The atmosphere was generally nice, the food was okay, but the prices were way too high. What bothered us most was that when I went to pay with the card I'd been using throughout the trip, it was declined. I tried another card, and the same thing happened. They asked if I could pay another way, and I had no choice but to use the little cash I had. It was clear it wasn't a problem with the card because they didn't make any effort to fix it or even offer us a discount for the inconvenience. I left and went to a kiosk to buy something to see if my card really wasn't working, and as I expected, I was able to pay without any problem. I felt ripped off; the service was terrible.

09/06/2026: A small restaurant in the historic center of Molfetta. Everything was excellent, from the service to the delicious dishes. Prices are reasonable, and with The Fork offers, you can even save a lot of money for a guaranteed return. I recommend the orecchiette with octopus ragu and/or the braciola.

24/05/2026: Our family dined here together and really enjoyed the cosy atmosphere, a reservation should have been made but they found as a table. So kind! The server was fantastic, friendly and explained the menu to us. Orecchiette with Ragù Braciole was wonderful, as was the Ragu Octopus, so tender. Of course bread to mop up with the sauce. We’ll be sure to come again during our time in Molfetta.

13/04/2026: Good food preparation. Efficient service. Small space.

08/03/2026: A wonderful experience!!! Attracted by the modern osteria concept, we opted for a tasting menu that includes an entrée, appetizer, first course, and dessert. We started off really well, with a truly delicious truffle arancini. The mixed appetizers featured quality ingredients, from Fassona beef tartare served on a crispy Black Angus foil, to some truly high-quality ricotta. The first courses, although beautifully presented, were much more visually appealing than palatable; overall, they were still of high quality. We finished with a mini mixed pastry, which made the meal a pleasant end. The atmosphere is very refined. It's a shame the loud live music made communication difficult among diners and the staff. The price was commensurate with the experience. I recommend going for a pleasant Sunday outing with friends.

04/06/2026: Excellent trattoria, authentic and full of charm. The service is pleasant, unpretentious, and never intrusive. My boyfriend and I had lunch there one day and had a wonderful time. It's naturally cool inside during the summer, which is especially welcome. I ordered the dish of the day: homemade gnocchi with tuna, tomatoes, and arugula. Absolutely delicious! They were the best gnocchi I've ever had; they literally melted in my mouth. My boyfriend chose orecchiette, and he was equally delighted. Simple, authentic, and perfectly executed cuisine. If we ever return to Lecce, we will definitely go back. We highly recommend it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

01/06/2026: An authentic dinner for two in the heart of Lecce. We dined at this trattoria as a couple and had a truly positive experience. The restaurant boasts beautiful, distinctive stone vaulted architecture that immediately creates a warm, rustic, and welcoming atmosphere, typical of old Salento taverns.

03/05/2026: Excellent place, great service, and delicious food! Friendly and fast service. We truly loved it.

02/05/2026: Featured on The Fork with many positive reviews, but unfortunately it doesn't deserve them. The orecchiette were topped with a sauce made from practically raw cherry tomatoes; they tasted like they'd been poured straight from the jar onto the plate, reheated. The spaghetti with sea urchins was flavorless. The place is a bit dark. The staff, however, are very friendly.
