I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

01/07/2026: Overall, it's a popular place, but personally, I wouldn't return. The table was covered inside, with no air conditioning. As soon as we arrived, without even a minus or a word of direction, the waitress showed up to take our order. Explaining the inconvenience, she brought the paper menus and stood in front of the table waiting for our order... I had to ask several times for a drink when it should be the first thing served while you wait for your order. All this with maybe four seats (all in view) on a typical weekday evening at 9:00 PM. The only good thing is the food: the pizza dough and ingredients are excellent.

23/06/2026: Excellent value for money. Very friendly and helpful staff.

14/07/2026: My partner and I discovered this place thanks to a gift box we received. Nothing to complain about, everything was perfect: the staff were super friendly, the location very intimate, perfect for a quiet dinner, and the service was very fast and always attentive. As for the food, nothing to complain about: the fish was fresh, with a fine flavor, perfectly cooked, and the fried food was light, everything delicious. We also took advantage of a bottle of water outside of our package, which was given to us free at the end of the dinner. I highly recommend going if you want to eat well and have a wonderful experience.

03/06/2026: The three of us went out for dinner and it was really lovely! It wasn't very busy, so we were served right away. We had pizza and pasta with seafood, and we thought everything was absolutely delicious, especially considering the very fair price. We'd gladly go again.

12/04/2026: Clean, comfortable environment, helpful staff, excellent food

15/03/2026: You eat well and a lot, excellent value for money with €50 per person starting with a generous appetizer and ending with dessert, naturally including wine, water and various soft drinks, coffee and amaro.

04/04/2026: Great cafe with a great view and better service. Fantastic for a evening glass of wine as well.

22/11/2025: The place is small, definitely better enjoyed on nice days, where you can enjoy the small outdoor square, but it's always worth a visit, even if only for the specialties. The cartellata al vincolo, with ricotta and pear gelato, and the Sicilian cannoli with pistachio gelato and cannolo-flavored gelato!!! Truly delicious. The cream is exquisite, and the owner and his son are so kind. We'll be back!

14/09/2025: Excellent pizza, although the buffalo mozzarella wasn't great. Service was good, the place was clean, bright, and spacious.

05/09/2025: We went out for dinner last night and were very satisfied. The mussel soup was really good and plentiful, and we finished it with a bread pucciatina. Two pizzas were well-cooked and topped with the right sauce. We loved them. We also had a classic fried potato, which was also good and plentiful, and fried well. Both the young man who took our order and the young woman who served us were very kind. The menu is extensive and not just limited to pizzas. We'll be back to try something else.

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)

10/06/2026: Sunset Dinner Spectacular view, good pizza, disappointing fried food

06/06/2026: I was only there for a week 😓😓😓 I already miss the owner, RITA, and everyone there is SPECTACULAR. I RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾❤️❤️❤️❤️

08/07/2026: Looking for classic fried panzerotti, we asked for an opinion online and it brought us to this place, we were not too convinced, but after we changed our minds, the panzerotti were delicious, we sat down and we did not pay the cover charge, after ordering they served us at the table, nice cold drinks, kindness and courtesy, we did not pay much, I did not give 5 stars to the environment because the place is on a very busy road, a bit dangerous for those with small children... For everything else I recommend and I will definitely be back

24/06/2026: Simple location. Fast service. Panzerotti, many very good specialties. And other delicacies. The atmosphere is a bit so-so... 😉

05/04/2026: It's nice to be at home with Angelo.... Cecilia is great at the console...an all-round artist

20/01/2026: I visited this place on December 31st. Everything was well organized: good food, efficient service, simple but elegant atmosphere, helpful and kind management....in short, I definitely recommend it and will return. Congratulations!

27/08/2025: Lido Tranquilli is a very kind owner, I recommend it

17/08/2025: We chose this beach to spend Ferragosto (August 15th). Unfortunately, I can't rate my experience highly enough. We made arrangements over the phone with the owner, who immediately proved very helpful. However, I was asked to pay in advance (the day before), which I didn't appreciate. I understand the manager wants to protect himself considering the unusual day, but usually a service is paid for at the end. As for the establishment, I get the impression that it's anything but premium: low-quality plastic chairs, hand-written writing, little attention to detail. The prices, however, are far from low: in high season, €39 for an umbrella and loungers. We paid €80 for a gazebo with four loungers. The gazebo is nothing more than unfinished logs (risk of splinters for children) with a covering to provide shade. Not a single hook to hang items or clothes, not even a table... Absolutely nothing. The €80 basically only includes shade. No parking, no hot shower (€1 for a timed cold shower), no Wi-Fi. The icing on the cake was the rain. They made us all move under a shelter to protect us from the rain, but the absurd thing was that after the brief rainstorm was over, we weren't allowed back on the beach for "safety reasons." I basically paid €80 for two hours of shade.

06/06/2026: I had dinner at Mezzo Pieno and had a very pleasant experience. The seaside location creates a charming atmosphere. The seafood dishes were fresh, beautifully presented, and carefully prepared, with authentic flavors that showcase local tradition. Compliments to the chef 👏👏. The staff was courteous and helpful throughout the evening. Wait times were normal, and the quality/price ratio was satisfactory considering the quality of the ingredients and the location. I highly recommend this place. I'll gladly return.

27/05/2026: We had a lovely experience at Mezzo Pieno. The sea view is beautiful, the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The drinks were excellent and clearly made with quality ingredients. A perfect spot to enjoy an evening in Monopoli.

16/05/2026: I had lunch with my family and was unfortunately disappointed. The ingredients used, in my opinion, were not of the highest quality. Poor value for money. I didn't stay overnight, so I can't comment on the rooms.

27/12/2025: From Rome to spend Christmas with relatives, they took us to this restaurant for Christmas lunch. It was completely packed, but despite this, the service was impeccable, the courtesy was embarrassing, and there was never a single out-of-place look or expression from those guys. Not to mention the quality of the food, everything was exquisite, and with all those people, even the dessert with ricotta, jam, and mulled wine, made and fried on the spot, one by one, I'm speechless. Truly, compliments. The space is also suitable for children, with a separate room outside. Highly recommended. The only exception, if I really had to find a flaw, was the cold lighting in the restaurant with dark walls. It's a shame because warm lighting would make the place more welcoming. We'll be back, thank you.

27/06/2026: Excellent beers, great welcome, sandwiches and more all delicious. Fair price.

16/06/2026: Excellent quality of raw materials, exquisite sandwiches and meatballs, fast service, welcoming location

02/05/2026: Once upon a time there was Uncle Tom. The old-fashioned way! To order a pan pizza, you have to send a registered letter a week in advance. Other times, at 9:00 PM on Saturdays, the dough runs out! But it hasn't happened once in 4 Saturdays, 4 times! They clearly lack experience in the trade. What can I say...I'll go elsewhere. Thanks anyway.

22/04/2026: We went there for the first time on Sunday..very good pizzas..but the specialty is the Parisian one..everything was delicious😋 the owner was very kind and friendly..we will definitely be back
