I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

12/10/2025: Sicilian cannoli are good. I only had those.

25/09/2025: Friendly and professional! Excellent value for money 😀 The Sicilian cannoli are also fantastic 😉

25/10/2025: One of the best experiences in Salento: authentic food, super fresh fish, and a very welcoming atmosphere. We'll become regulars!

18/10/2025: Probably the best panna cotta I’ll ever eat in my life, the consistency and flavour was amazing. Our sweet and helpful server Manuella said she’s the one who makes all the desserts herself - compliments ! The meals, decorations and atmosphere were homey and authentic-feeling — overall a very lovely dinner.

08/11/2025: Delicious pasta — the best orecchiette I’ve had in Apulia! The staff were very friendly and the prices were great. Highly recommended!

31/10/2025: Truly excellent food, friendly staff, and very affordable prices! Highly recommended.

14/10/2025: Historic trattoria. Friendly staff. Good food, highly recommended for anyone in the area, even late at night. Traditional trattoria atmosphere.

13/10/2025: Characterful venue Good value for money

07/09/2025: Great pizza served by the meter. Dessert is also delicious.

15/08/2025: Invited by friends to spend an evening, it wasn't difficult to find parking because the restaurant is located on a wide road on the edge of town. Service was relatively quick, welcoming us with a small plate of pittole. The pizzas (by the meter), light and well-cooked, were tasty. The price is PERHAPS a little (just a little) above average, but that's also due to the fact that, being an outdoor restaurant far from the town center, we found ourselves avoiding the August evening heat, and the children were able to play in the adjacent park.

12/09/2025: Excellent raw seafood, a shame it was the only positive aspect of the dinner. In the two fried cuttlefish dishes we ordered, the cuttlefish had the consistency of a tire! The potatoes, like the aforementioned fried dishes, were made with used oil. As for the service, I note the chipped plates (all of them), the haste in clearing away the glasses we were still drinking from, and the lack of preparation by one of the wait staff, unaware of the contents of the dishes offered. I doubt we'll be back.

03/09/2025: I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the food, excellent fried food, calamarata with cicadas, excellent, parmigiana, excellent, etc. etc. 5 stars deserved.

27/09/2025: Bad experience, poor cleanliness, and very rude. The disturbing thing is that they flag negative reviews on TripAdvisor and have them removed, which is why they only have positive reviews. Avoid them.

19/09/2025: I recommend the place for the food and delicious pizza.

05/09/2025: Excellent restaurant in a typical Apulian farmhouse. Traditional Salento dishes, beautifully prepared. Excellent service. Very well-maintained location. Recommended.

06/08/2025: Honestly it was an incredible hotel, slightly lost in the middle of the olive groves to be quiet but at the same time next to Avetrana and 15 minutes from the beach, the location is perfect already. Rest assured dear reader because that is not the only good thing about this hotel 😍. Already the arrival after a long day of driving with super friendly staff, very attentive even, and especially a small arrival drink offered 🫣. The room is large, space, clean, full of local products like soaps for example, and above all it is cool in it, the dream with this heat 🥵. The swimming pool is just magnificent, not too crowded, with deckchairs by the water, small olive trees, we are really comfortable there and that is saying something 😎. The breakfasts are very very good, lots of choice with delicious and local products. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the cleaning ladies who were always very smiling and kind, the bar and restaurant staff and especially Laeticia, she gave us a lot of advice on things to visit which were all great, always attentive, and who gave us a superb wine and olive oil tasting, sharing all her knowledge with us, it was really good 😀. The best hotel in Italy by far I would say, go there without hesitation!!!!!

16/11/2025: Excellent welcome Mimmo, the owner, is extremely friendly Excellent food Friendly staff

15/11/2025: I liked the restaurant, the atmosphere and service were excellent, the dishes ordered were decent, it’s better to order in advance, the dessert seemed very simple, puff pastry with custard, overall an interesting place I recommend visiting.

03/11/2025: The location is lovely, with a large outdoor garden and the traditional interior, but everything else didn't particularly convince me. The price was high for a platter that, according to the waiter who served us, could have been eaten by three people, but was ridiculously large enough for two; the third would have eaten the crumbs. The white bread wasn't fresh that day. A somewhat disappointing personal experience.

11/10/2025: A worthwhile find slightly off the beaten track with a spacious outdoor terrace with shaded area. We stopped for coffee & cake so can recommend the Tiramisu and Coconut and Nutella torte! The service was good and WC clean & pleasant to use. It wasn't busy so couldn't comment on atmosphere and didn't venture into the indoor part.

15/08/2025: Dinner with the family. We didn't use the rooms. As for the food, you have to like their vegan approach. For me (a carnivore), the appetizer was excellent, the first course was perhaps a bit too heavy, and the dessert was delicious. We didn't order the second course because we were too full. What's striking, however, is the tranquility of the place, a true oasis of peace just steps from the road. Add to that a lovely welcome from Francesca, and you've got a truly relaxing evening.

05/05/2025: Eating at Piccapane is a unique experience: a family environment surrounded by greenery where you can enjoy excellent vegan dishes prepared with attention and love. This was the feeling we felt yesterday at lunch, from the welcome from the very kind staff to the tasting of the dishes, in the choice of which we were carefully guided. The food is incredible, a joy of simple flavors with refined combinations. There is also a small shop where you can purchase their products. Finding an entirely vegan restaurant in Salento was a dream until recently. Piccapane is truly a virtuous example, spokesperson for a change that we hope will spread more and more. (access is also allowed to animals ❤️)

12/10/2025: The hotel and the rooms are clean. They are cleaned every day. The location is very good, but unfortunately, almost everything is closed during the off-season. The breakfast isn't great; it's the same every day, and there's little choice. What was definitely annoying was the noise from the daily changing tour groups arriving by bus. There was a constant coming and going. Unfortunately, the pool was also closed.

06/09/2025: The hotel met our expectations... perhaps larger wardrobes in the rooms... for us, since there were 4 of us... a two-door wardrobe was really small... The pool was good... The sea was most beautiful in the morning and rough in the afternoon... Beautiful but not the sea of ​​Salento.... In the week of July when we were there, there were few jellyfish... The restaurant and cuisine were superb... We ate in abundance... Fresh fish every day and a very varied menu... The desserts were good... A large buffet every day... Friendly staff, from the waiters... to Mrs. Grazia... to the cleaning ladies... Insufficient parking for hotel guests... You need to book in advance...

13/11/2025: Excellent welcome and service, and delicious pizzas

12/08/2025: Excellent pizza, kind and courteous staff

21/09/2025: Terrible year, an entire setup was ruined... Rude and unwilling waiters I advise you never to come to such a terrible, unprofessional place.

25/08/2025: Amazing place, great food and friendly staff
