I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

02/03/2026: I would have given a few more stars if it weren't for the poorly trained staff, in the sense that: they bring you the other dishes without removing the dirty plates, the food is okay but the chef needs to make peace with the salt, we kindly asked for the bill and without opening our mouths they presented it to us without even greeting or asking how the meal went.... it seems like they are doing you a favor by sitting at the table... never again... shameful

01/02/2026: Friends' recommendations are often highly subjective. They had "touted" this steakhouse as if it were the best in the world. Honestly, it was nothing special. We arrived, they sat us down at our table, ignoring us for almost half an hour, while people who had arrived after us were being served, so much so that I had to go to the waiter myself to get even a bottle of water. The meat was average, nothing extraordinary like the descriptions of those who recommended it to me. The waiters I would definitely not give an Oscar for friendliness to, and the prices, even those, were not exceptional. An experience not to be repeated.

18/05/2026: A seaside-style restaurant in the center of Otranto. The quality of the ingredients is excellent. The mussels and catch of the day are highly recommended. The grilled fish is truly superb, a must-try. Fast and attentive service.

06/05/2026: Highly recommend! So impressed tasty food great service. We ordered the special of the day pasta with cubed fresh monkfish cooked in a flavorful light yellow tomato sauce which compliments it perfectly, hubby had the perfectly grilled octopus in a broad bean purée & chicory.

14/03/2026: Terrible pizza, 0-star service, order placed and arrived late, really late...and frozen pizzas

19/02/2026: Very good pizzeria, prepared in a variety of ways. The rest of the menu is also varied. The atmosphere encourages conversation.

18/01/2026: The pizza is decent, but the best in town. The food overall isn't bad either. It's worth trying!

29/12/2025: spacious, welcoming, excellent pizza

17/05/2026: Excellent bar and pastry shop, fresh, quality products. The staff is friendly, professional, and available to meet your every need. Having tried them myself, I can only recommend them for a break or a relaxing moment—you'll certainly be satisfied. For this, I give them a rating 👍👍👍👍👍

15/03/2026: It's definitely the BEST pastry shop I've ever encountered. The professionalism of the service and the excellent raw materials used make the products truly unique and high-quality. The prices are definitely reasonable and not expensive. A pastry shop to recommend. Compliments to the management and staff.

27/12/2025: A venue in the center of Gallipoli, packed with young people. On the busiest nights, there's little organization.

19/12/2025: The girls are very kind. Drinks and appetizers lived up to expectations.

27/12/2025: A delicious fried dish, preceded by delicious spaghetti with mussels.

21/10/2025: Very good restaurant with design, no sandwich, as well as a bar on the other side personal, smiling, welcoming, very beautiful, decoration A sufficient variety of products an impressive generosity on the meat for a very cheap price 3-4€ for a sandwich overflowing with filling)

12/04/2026: This pastry shop and ice cream parlor is located in the city center. Unfortunately, parking is limited, but it's easier to find nearby. Good-quality pastries, and a great place for a hearty breakfast with a variety of croissants and brioches. The gelato is also worth trying. Prices are moderate, and the staff are friendly. There's also a large dining room with tables and seating.

20/01/2026: I was there a couple of days ago and I have to say the atmosphere is really pleasant, perfect for a quick coffee or a quick break. The staff is super friendly, they welcome you with a smile, which is not something you can take for granted these days! The place is clean and tidy, you can tell they care. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 only for one small detail: the interior isn't huge, and when it gets crowded, it gets a bit chaotic, risking having to wait a bit too long for a free table. Otherwise, though, the quality is excellent, and I'll definitely be back. Recommended if you're looking for a truly authentic place!

26/04/2026: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 We entered L’Aragosta initially attracted by the location: a truly stunning setting, practically on the sea, which alone is worth the visit. 💥 Once seated, however, the surprise was even more pleasant: the quality of the cuisine absolutely lives up to the setting. And we say this as Taranto residents, therefore accustomed and demanding when it comes to seafood and fish. We started with the freshest raw seafood, truly excellent. Next, tagliolini with sea urchins and tagliolini with scorpionfish, both carefully prepared, flavorful, and well-balanced. The fried fish was also excellent, light and crispy. The service was also much appreciated: the staff was kind, attentive, and recommended a perfect wine to accompany the dishes. Overall, a more than positive experience from every point of view. We left fully satisfied after complimenting the restaurant manager😊. We will definitely be back!

22/04/2026: Beautiful place, nice venue, friendly staff but lacks professionalism and food could be improved, a shame because it has great potential

27/05/2026: Their menu is very inviting and the food came out as good as it says. The service is very good. The owner recommended us a perfect rose for our meal.

23/05/2026: Had dinner here last night. There is nothing authentic or Italian about this restaurant. It was a pretty mediocre experience. I ordered a carbonara - the worst carbonara I’ve ever tasted. Other dishes weren’t good either. I’d say avoid - there are better places around.

15/05/2026: Excellent pizza. Friendly staff. Recommended.

01/02/2026: Excellent cuisine... I have only praise for the attentive, fresh, simple, and well-made cuisine... a real shame, however, is that we started lunch after 2:15 PM, after arriving at 1:05 PM... first we were told that service starts at 1:30 PM and that's fine... then when 2 PM arrived without even water and bread arriving, we were told that since it's a fixed menu, we all have to start together... what the hell!!!!... this doesn't make sense!!!!!... it's not like a communion where everyone has lunch together... if I arrive for lunch with my family, I want to have lunch with my family and not wait for the room to fill up and also wait for the guy who doesn't give a damn about everyone and arrives calmly after 2 PM... it doesn't exist!!! This thing should be handled much better! Even if it's okay that service starts at 1:30 PM and if you really have to have this communion lunch policy... arrive at 1:45 PM and we'll start!!!! It's a real shame because this made me so nervous that I even considered leaving... and it would have been a real shame because the food and the staff's promptness didn't deserve it at all!!!! One last thing: more attention to the children... they were served last, at least at the beginning (then they lined up perfectly). Why would you want to serve 10 plates of ham?! (The children's appetizer was missing some dairy products; I had to give them the one from our menu for 20 euros, it seems a bit excessive.) And anyway, at the same time as the adults, that is, after 2:15 PM... no! But congratulations to the chef who calmed my nerves with excellent first courses!!! And with second helpings for every occasion!!! Well done!

31/05/2026: Very welcoming Pisto Service provided with professionalism and friendliness and never invasive 💯💯💯
