I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

11/09/2025: Eating excellent fish with a 180° view of one of Puglia's most beautiful seas is truly the best!

11/09/2025: A culinary gem in Puglia – authenticity you can taste! We were fortunate enough to discover this wonderful restaurant during our stay in Puglia – and it was without a doubt one of the absolute highlights of our trip. The warm, family atmosphere is immediately noticeable upon entry. The staff is warm, attentive, and takes the time to explain dishes and ingredients – with a genuine passion for Puglian cuisine. The restaurant impresses with fresh, regional ingredients, attentive service, and a calm, authentic atmosphere – without any touristy gimmicks. The linguine di mare was the highlight of the evening: perfectly cooked al dente, with a delicate seafood sauce that was intensely flavorful but not overpowering. Accompanied by a glass of local white wine – simple and harmonious. A restaurant that doesn't just serve Puglia, but lives it. If you're looking for good food without a lot of fuss, you'll find it here.

04/09/2025: The pizza was completely different from what I saw in the photo.

24/08/2025: The pizza is really good, and the place is beautifully decorated!

28/08/2025: This evening we had a delightful evening; despite our late arrival (around 11:45 PM), the staff was there to welcome us warmly. Between a generous appetizer of cured meats, cheeses, and fried foods and two delicious first courses (orecchiette with sausage and arugula, and spaghetti allo scoglio), we spent the evening in a small, well-kept and very familiar corner of Brindisi. An ideal place for groups of young people like us, but also for families and couples, especially given the super affordable price! Thanks again to the restaurant.

19/08/2025: Characteristic place and good food

27/08/2025: We arrived last night for a dinner for 8 people at 9:15 PM. We asked to order after a good 15 minutes without anyone coming to take our order, so we ordered fries as an appetizer and then the pizzas. The fries arrived after almost 20 minutes, and the pizzas arrived at 10:58 PM! (From 9:15 PM, which was the reservation time). Furthermore, we asked two different waitresses twice to tell us how our pizzas were, and no one ever answered. Did they really ask? I didn't like the pizza, though. For a Margherita with fries, you could only taste the extra virgin olive oil, not the Margherita or the fries. Finally, only three of us who paid by card were issued a receipt; everyone else was paid, and we were left with just the management receipt (not the receipt). For a €17 dinner and a two-hour wait, I'm not entirely satisfied. The only thing that was nice was the location.

10/07/2025: Reservation made for 9pm, the pizza arrived after a 2-hour wait. It's good, but you can't wait 2 hours. Prices are average, but honestly, waiting 2 hours and then being charged 0.20 cents for a box after spending more than €150 is a bit annoying.

18/08/2025: I went to dinner at Cris&Bio and had an excellent experience. The waiter recommended some really excellent appetizers. We didn't wait more than 10 minutes for the appetizer to be already on the table. Excellent service and spectacular desserts. The pizza was good, definitely worth returning. The only flaw was the location, it could be better.

16/08/2025: We went to this place for dinner on August 15th. As an appetizer, we had a "tasting of Japigia," consisting of homemade parmigiana (but it had nothing in common with the real Bari parmigiana), coppata strips (that is, two slices of cured meat that I could shred myself if I wanted, otherwise they arrive whole like at the supermarket), two stringy potato pizzas (actually, a pizza brick with very little potato), olives (a small bowl of 5), one mozzarella (translated as 1 knot), one small bowl of baked scamorza, and the inevitable Barivecchiana, which is two sgagliozze with chopped red tomatoes drizzled with olive oil (I would have preferred the inimitable sgagliozze with just salt). After finally finishing the appetizer, we moved on to the pizzas with Bari-style, thin-crust dough. It's a shame it was so thin you couldn't taste it, except for the extreme crunchiness that made it resemble a round layer of unsalted crackers. The sauce was also lacking in salt, making the pizza taste sweet. The pizza prices are average for this time of year, although, in my opinion, given the consistency of the dough and the limited toppings, they could be a little cheaper. A positive note is that they've created their own app. By signing up, you're entitled to an immediate €5 discount (which is applied regularly) and can accumulate points for future discounts. Overall, the place is pleasant. Improving the pizza dough and the dining area could make a significant improvement.
