I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

24/04/2025: Uno dei nostri ristoranti preferiti della zona. È una tappa fissa ogni volta che veniamo a Matino e non restiamo mai delusi. Anzi, tra i nostri piatti preferiti i tacos con Guacamole e tartare di palamita. Così come le linguine con crema alle cime di rapa. Piatto delizioso e non banale. La cornice stupenda con oggetti di design grande charme e un servizio impeccabile ma caloroso. A chi non c’è mai stato lo consiglio vivamente!

30/03/2025: Posto magnifico, piatti straordinari, il personale gentile e disponibile, servizio da ristorante di alta gamma, location mozzafiato anche internamente.

08/06/2025: Good coffee! Cozy place and friendly staff.

04/06/2025: Nice discovery, friendly staff and quiet place

08/09/2025: The food was good, but the waiter spent most of the time telling us to leave. So, overall, I rate the experience as very average.

07/09/2025: Ok so the food was really good but the waiter was really nervous and almost agressive, good thing that the lady manager handeled the situation well :) if your job makes you angry - change it :))))))

16/07/2025: In the van with our Belgian Malinois, we loved the location in front of the beach, a very pretty cove. Our dog was able to... We spent two very pleasant nights.

10/07/2025: Nice rest area by the sea, a little spartan but with everything you need, we were happy with it

27/08/2025: The appetizer prices were exorbitant for a paltry dish. The wait for dinner was endless. We arrived at 9:20 PM and our dishes were delivered at 11:45 PM. Disorganized by the waiters and the kitchen. The long wait is apparently customary, given that there's a chalkboard with the message "Don't rush, and that waiting increases cravings and hunger." After more than two hours, my only desire was to get up and leave. The exterior was definitely nice. I recommend a guided tour only, without dinner.

26/08/2025: How wonderful!!! How wonderful to be able to eat in such a unique and characteristic place, with such masterfully prepared dishes, with truly excellent service, and be able to feel at home...gentlemen, this is what happens at Corte dei Simonari!!! Everything was beautiful, everyone was truly nice, from the first to the last. The owner is probably the sweetest of all; before we left, she even gave us a complimentary bottle of wine. We can't wait to return to try other Salento dishes prepared (and in some cases revisited) by the talented chef and to be pampered by all the staff. P.S. I forgot to mention that the prices are MORE than fair.

07/07/2025: Pizza was amazing, spaghetti was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. They were really patient with us as we do not speak Italian. Would recommend this place for authentic local experience.

10/06/2025: Everything was delicious, the braciole with the sauce was amazing, the onions were finger-licking good, I highly recommend it, bye

25/03/2025: Delicious pizza and friendly staff ❤😍

18/06/2025: Perfect food, Nino and the staff are legend!

09/04/2025: Carbonara was very good and friendly service.

15/07/2025: Locale trovato per caso perché in 7 amici non avevamo prenotato da nessuna parte. Bella location...raffinata all'interno e all'esterno. Il menù è per la maggiore di pesce, ma chiedendo alla titolare, si possono avere anche piatti di terra. Rapporto qualità/prezzo ottimi. Io ho mangiato un piatto di crudo eccellente. L'unico neo, se proprio devo trovare un difetto alla sera, è stata la Festa di battesimo di una bellissima bimba, che a mio avviso, andava fatta in una saletta a loro riservata. La musica ad alto volume e l'animazione del dj, ha tolto atmosfera al posto, impedendo anche una piacevole conversazione. Detto questo, ci ritornerei per assaggiare altro.

04/07/2025: Abbiamo cenato ieri sera in questo posto fantastico. Siamo stati consigliati e seguiti alla perfezione … la location è bellissima davvero. Siamo stati molto bene !!

26/08/2025: Looking at photos and videos on social media, I honestly expected much more, especially from the pizza. The appetizers and fried foods aren't bad, but the pizza, from my experience, is anything but. The toppings were actually very good, but it's the dough that gets you: rubbery, sometimes undercooked, and it seemed as if they hadn't given it time to rise. Kudos to the staff, who, despite being few in number, were able to manage the difficulties of that particular evening (though judging by reviews prior to mine, the "understaffed" seems more like a habit than an "occurrence"). I hope to return soon and enjoy a better-made pizza, perhaps on a quiet weekday so I can change my mind.

24/08/2025: We spent a pleasant evening with friends enjoying excellent pizzas. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

06/04/2025: Structure from the 80s perhaps in need of updating but quick and friendly service. The starters are excellent and the meat is also of good quality.

14/08/2025: True Italian pasta in a dream location

13/08/2025: The pasta was good and the prices were reasonable. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Our waiter was not friendly and even blamed my 5-year-old son for resting his feet under his knee while sitting, despite the fact that the outdoor chairs were plastic, visibly dirty, and no longer their original white color. This left a sour note on an otherwise decent meal.

24/07/2025: I eat there every day, the home cooking is spectacular. Great company. Recommended.

11/06/2025: I went in to have a snack, or asked for two sandwiches with mortadella that were already ready, and inside the sandwich a green fly, how disgusting, the food on the counter was not protected, he put the film on it after I reported it, never again

07/09/2025: I went there just this evening to escape the chaotic patronal festival in my hometown, and here I found relaxation, a beautiful view, good service, and good food. Highly recommended.

01/09/2025: Vincenzo was fantastic! He helped us choose the best dishes and recommended the absolute best. A true model of service!
