I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Puglia

25/06/2025: A Culinary Highlight of Our Apulian Journey We had the best dining experience of our entire trip in Apulia at La Cuccagna Giro di Vite in Crispiano. Everything from the service to the creativity of the dishes was exceptional. We started with the chef’s selection of six antipasti, a beautifully curated mix of local flavors—ranging from classic cold cuts to mini meatballs, fresh salads with seasonal vegetables, and other small delicacies that showcased the richness of the region. Each bite was a discovery. The rosé sparkling wine recommended by the staff—L’Archetipo Susumante—was a perfect pairing: fresh, elegant, and full of character. For the primi, we each chose one pasta dish, and the kitchen thoughtfully split and served both in two separate rounds so we could easily share and enjoy each one. The orecchiette with smoky aubergine and a trio of cherry tomatoes (green, yellow, and red) was vibrant and full of flavor. The paccheri filled with ricotta in a lamb and tomato sauce was rich, comforting, and beautifully balanced. To finish, we shared a house-made fig tart paired with a scoop of almond ice cream, topped with freshly grilled almonds—a perfect finale with freshness, texture, and just the right sweetness. This meal was not only delicious, but full of generosity, care, and soul—just like the ambiance of the restaurant. A must-visit if you’re in the area. Truly unforgettable.

20/02/2025: Very good cuisine..With quality local products. Original dishes with great flavour. Friendly and welcoming staff. Just a note. Room a little cold

21/06/2025: One of the best hamburgers I've ever eaten in Puglia.

20/06/2025: Excellent food quality and kindness of the staff that encourages you to come back

26/03/2025: In my humble opinion it is not a location that I would choose for a family party, tasty food, not of excellent quality, appetizers in the center which is something I do not prefer, consisting of mignon and chips more flavor in the center of the table.... which I have never seen before on other occasions.

25/03/2025: Perfect location for any type of event special owners super food in terms of quality and quantity, especially fresh and when it comes to the sea you can immediately feel the difference, trained staff, welcoming and always available I can't wait to return perhaps for a lunch or dinner with friends to celebrate. Highly recommended to try

12/05/2025: Great location. Garage available. Small bathroom.

12/05/2025: Very nice hotel. Good service. The location is very good, two blocks from the train and bus terminals. Three blocks from downtown. The Farha Hotel's restaurant is very good. I recommend the "Cooked tentacles at low temperature, tempura chicken with cream of ceci."

17/04/2025: Nice rooms. Bathroom with curtain. There is a fridge in the room and even a work table. Almost non-existent SPA with sauna light burned out and only hydromassage tub, nothing else. Small and disappointing gym, given the expectations due to how they present themselves. Decent breakfast.

17/04/2025: Very nice hotel, beautiful garden, close to Bari Centrale station. Very good breakfast. I asked to order a taxi to the airport. No additional fees. Smiling and helpful staff. Spacious, clean room. I recommend it.

06/07/2025: After work, my partner and I decided to go for dinner, something light but at the same time good. On a summer evening, outside on the steps.. The two waitresses were really good, meticulous. Kind and friendly owner. Quiet and hospitable environment. Excellent quality/price ratio. Recommended.

06/07/2025: Top atmosphere. Great selection of beers, generous and tasty sandwiches, friendly and always on-point staff. The perfect place to unwind and enjoy an evening with friends. Definitely worth returning to.

15/06/2025: The house appetizer was nothing special, served in installments, cold cuts as a single course and after 10 minutes the dairy products, for the hot ones instead we waited over 15 minutes. Good sliced ​​steak, questionable sausage, courses served one at a time to the various diners, with the result that two ate, two looked and then three looked and one ate. All this keeping in mind that we were the first customers and when we arrived there was no one there.

22/06/2025: Nice place to see, good service, but food is average

21/06/2025: Incredible view Calm and relaxing atmosphere, accompanied by hundreds of crickets. The service is attentive. The dishes are authentic (the citrus salmon is divine). And the decor is magnificent. We stopped by chance and it was one of the best meals in the region! Many thanks ☺️

01/07/2025: Very fast service. Booked for 9pm with the warning that there would be a bit of a wait, at 9.10pm we were already seated. Everything very good, waitress very kind and helpful

30/06/2025: Vecchia Otranto is a wonderful little restaurant tucked away in the quiet backstreets of Otranto – a true hidden gem that delivers on both charm and flavour. We began with a beautifully cooked starter that was fresh, flavorful, and elevated by the addition of fresh oregano, which added a lovely, aromatic brightness to the dish. It set the tone perfectly for what was to come. For mains, we had the sagne 'ncannulate with shrimp – a standout dish with homemade pasta and deep, authentic local flavors. We also tried the tagliolini with tuna, another pasta made in-house that was rich, light, and full of character. These were perfectly complemented by a local rosé made from the Negroamaro grape – crisp, dry, and just right with seafood and pasta. We ended with a classic tiramisu – creamy, balanced, and the perfect finale to a fantastic meal. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly, making the entire evening feel relaxed and welcoming. This is a place that takes pride in local ingredients, traditional recipes, and heartfelt hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Otranto who wants an authentic, delicious dining experience.

01/07/2025: Truly fantastic hotel, for the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms, for the efficiency of the services, for the strategic position. The staff is efficient, kind and always available. I recommend it to everyone.

26/06/2025: Excellent in every way. I recommend it!!!

17/06/2025: Well done well done well done👏👏👏in this place you can feel the atmosphere of home we ate very well and afterwards we had a pleasant chat with the owners.... we will definitely be back 👍👍👍

05/05/2025: *5 stars!* I just left the Red Moon Pizzeria in Palmariggi, a few km from Otranto. I was thrilled with how incredible it is! The cleanliness is impeccable! Every detail is meticulously cared for. The staff was super welcoming and professional, they made us feel at home. Pizza? Fantastic! The crust is crunchy, the sauce is fresh and tasty. The service was very fast and the staff was very attentive to our needs. The value for money is fantastic. I highly recommend this pizzeria to everyone! If you are a pizza lover, you can't miss it. I'll be back soon! *Rating: 5/5 stars* P.S. If you want some advice, try the "Quattro Formaggi"

03/06/2025: Arrivati verso le 14 a Castro avevamo esigenza dj mangiare qualcosa. Ci siamo affacciati dalla piazzetta che da sul porticciolo e abbiamo visto questo locale con tavoli solo all'aperto. Nonostante non avessimo prenotato e ci fosse molta gente ci hanno fatto accomodare e abbiamo mangiato. Personale davvero cortese e qualità delle portate di buon livello. Consigliatissimo.

29/05/2025: Good fresh generous seafood meals friendly service with groovy music and a nice view

09/05/2025: We came here on a recommendation from another restaurant owner in Montegrosso. It definitely lived up to the recommendation, of not surpassing it! Chef and owner Antonio was really friendly, and his staff were very patient with us. The food was amazing, and we loved both the meat, fish, and pasta dishes. The appetizers were also phenomenal. Their house wines were also very nice and went well with their dishes. We would love to pay them another visit in the near future.

05/05/2025: What an excellent gem of a find! Not only was the food excellent, the chef and his staff patiently explained to us using Google Translate. Parking was really easy, right outside the restaurant, we had no reservations - we walked right in. We were served 4 appetizers as well as 1st and 2nd mains. We also had 2 glass of the house wine that was great. Everything was just so wonderful. To top it off, Chef Antonio, the owner was super friendly. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
