I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

09/10/2025: A wonderful idea – choose your steak/meat at the butcher's shop and have it served to you perfectly cooked on the charcoal grill, topped with a pinch of coarse sea salt. We recommend ordering the warm side dishes like potatoes and grilled vegetables separately and only after the meat has been placed on the grill.

07/10/2025: Remembering a past experience at another butcher/grill shop, I expected much more! The meat wasn't excellent, the house wine was awful. The only redeeming feature was the grilling.

28/08/2025: It was a recommendation by our host and it did not disappoint at all! What a beautiful cute little Osteria with amazing food! The chef herself came out to ask how the food it and it was really good! The homemade pasta with tomatoe sauce - wow! A simple dish but so flavorful and amazing!

23/08/2025: Great experience. Family-run restaurant. Excellent food and service. We highly recommend it. You'll feel right at home.

19/10/2025: A wonderful location surrounded by greenery, just a stone's throw from Gallipoli, a rustic establishment offering simple yet refined dishes. The quality of the food is excellent, from the appetizers to the first and second courses. The antipasto was rich and delicious, and the first courses were excellent. We opted for the meat course, which was delicious. The staff was very kind and helpful. We were very satisfied.

13/09/2025: We were thrilled with the cuisine, service, and location at Calamate. We stayed in Gallipoli for 12 days, and we ate there four times. It was undoubtedly the best dinners of the entire trip. The appetizer selection—the burratina, the homemade orecchiette, and the bombette (which we tried breaded and baked here)—were all exceptional, as were the grilled red tuna and the pasta with scampi. The ingredients are excellent, and the price, in my opinion, perfectly in line with what's on offer. If you're in Gallipoli, it's worth a visit!

09/10/2025: The only customers, we ordered the fish menu accompanied by a half-gallon pitcher of local white wine. Frankly excellent and fresh. I can't comment on the service in peak season, but today, no complaints. And the limoncello, too, the first time in over two weeks in Puglia. Seated on the back terrace, quiet except for the kitchen fan.

08/10/2025: We found this place after a thorough search. Highly recommended. Excellent food, service, and prices. The owners are very kind.

26/10/2025: Beautiful place, welcoming and pleasant. Before and after an easy hike through the beech forests of Gargano. Friendly staff and excellent food.

21/09/2025: Pleasant... an old forestry barracks renovated and transformed into a refuge for nature lovers within the Umbrian forest... near a small lake and many possible excursions to do... kind and helpful staff... highly recommended... thanks for the welcome!

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.

24/10/2025: Very kind, fast! Congratulations!

17/10/2025: I really enjoyed the atmosphere in the evening and I invite you to take a look.

24/10/2025: The real pizza from Bari. Delicious.

21/10/2025: A great discovery! High-quality food at fair prices, in an elegant yet welcoming setting, with friendly and approachable staff. Paolo is always available and always manages to please! We tried an excellent seafood dinner, but I also recommend the spaghetti all'assassina: a real treat! Highly recommended—I send all my Oceanomare Beach Home clients here. 100% approved! 🍽️👏

29/10/2025: Great choice and lovely evening

26/10/2025: We were there last night, the service was excellent, the waiters were really polite and friendly, the pizza was excellent, the only flaw was a platter of cold cuts that we had as an appetizer, the cold cuts were of very poor quality and the mortadella in particular smelled, served without cheese and with very few slices of low-quality bread, but otherwise the pizza was top.

14/10/2025: Wonderful place. Great food. The service from Odette was first class!

29/09/2025: Disappointing. A place with a nice view and a good location, but the food is despicable. My wife and I ordered a burrata appetizer that was just OK (10 euros). For 5 euros, you can get something better at the market. The biggest disappointment was the gnocchi with salmon and pistachios. Simply one of the worst dishes I've had at a restaurant in years. The gnocchi was doughy and tough. The red sauce was worse than store-bought ones. Salmon and pistachios? In name only. All this for 18 euros. Terrible, terrible, there's no other word for it.

12/09/2025: The dishes are neither good nor bad. The quality/price ratio is acceptable. The atmosphere and staff are quite dull... Smile a little more!

18/07/2025: The orecchiette with ragù were special! Truly delicious. The place is cozy and quiet, with friendly service. Highly recommended.

27/07/2025: We arrived in Otranto on our yacht and chose Classe80 for a special dinner: the perfect choice. An elegant location, refined atmosphere, and breathtaking views. Carefully crafted and creative seafood dishes, using top-quality ingredients. Impeccable service, discreet yet attentive. The wine list worthy of a high-end restaurant. A gourmet experience we recommend to anyone who seeks the best.

10/11/2025: Unique concept for this location.

26/09/2025: I was truly beyond satisfied. Excellent value for money. The service was also very friendly.

21/10/2025: a dinner with friends was what I was looking for

09/09/2025: We went for lunch on both Wednesday and Sunday. On Wednesday, there was nothing to complain about; the appetizers and main courses were superb. I have a few complaints about Sunday, but I want to give a bonus because it was crowded and perhaps the organization wasn't perfect. I'll definitely go back, because the food was good and the dishes were well-prepared, hoping it was just a small Sunday lapse.

15/06/2025: Welcome and service 10/10. Super arrosticini.

14/06/2025: Excellent meat. The lazzetto was very tasty. Also good arrosticini and very fresh vegetables.
