I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Bari

28/06/2026: An experience of light and shade I dined last night for the first time with a group of friends, opting for the €25 fixed menu. Positive notes: The location: The place is truly beautiful, well-kept, and welcoming, ideal for an evening with friends. The portions: There's nothing to complain about in terms of quantity; the food is definitely plentiful, and no one left empty-handed. What didn't work: The quality: Although the portions were generous, the overall quality of the dishes was unfortunately mediocre. Nothing special. The (too) rushed service: The waiters were definitely too quick to clear the table. I was distracted by my phone for literally a minute, and by the time I put it down, my orecchiette with ragù (which I was still eating) had already evaporated along with the plate! In short: excellent for the quantity and the ambiance, but there's definitely room for improvement in the quality of the food and the timing of the service, giving customers time to breathe (and finish their meal).

27/06/2026: Excellent restaurant with a very warm welcome.

02/10/2025: I went there with some friends last week and we had gelato. Aside from the fact that there was no difference between the various flavors, the most annoying thing was that the gelato melted in a flash. Bottom line: we ate it quickly because it melted before our eyes, it tasted like nothing, and we had to find a fountain to rinse our sticky hands. An experience not to be repeated.

12/09/2025: Excellent ice cream, even the healthy kind

14/05/2026: Not fancy, but we had a good meal there. Not too expensive. The service is friendly.

26/04/2026: I rarely leave reviews for establishments, but in this case, I'd say "Absolutely avoid!" Terrible service, ridiculously long wait. We left having only received half our order. The hygiene was questionable, judging by the state of the toilets, hidden behind a plastic curtain.

07/06/2026: I bought a focaccia by calling and ordering in advance, making sure to get it fresh from the oven. It arrived on time, or at least 10 minutes late. The focaccia was frozen and clearly not made tonight... I also bought a baked panzerotto, which was old and hard. Two stars, to be generous.

23/05/2026: Excellent products. Alongside traditional baked goods, there are also other delicious snacks and lunch options.

18/05/2026: Dirty atmosphere, poor quality food! The lady behind the counter needs to learn how to communicate with people, even if she doesn't understand Italian. She needs to be patient and not freak out so quickly! Terrible experience.

16/07/2026: For a shopping mall, the staff are very welcoming and friendly. The food is higher quality than most self-service restaurants. They serve typical Apulian dishes or grill them directly, like the dish I tried. The price is very reasonable.

02/07/2026: Terrible experience, a piece of chicken and a piece of broad beans and chicory for €16... a scam in a self-service restaurant.

21/03/2026: Ordered from Deliveroo, exaggerated prices for the food delivered and mediocre quality, there wasn't even a napkin in the box

24/02/2026: nice place to have a quick break

24/04/2026: Excellent quality of desserts and variety of choices. Highly recommended.

18/01/2026: A very salty pastry shop! The small pastry shop costs €26 a kilo! Not even if it were Igino Massari's small pastry shop! More restraint for the pieces.

11/06/2026: They're not pizzas, they're paintings!

02/06/2026: Very good pizzas and fresh ingredients, you can taste the quality! Fair prices and a little piece of paradise located behind the newly opened pizzeria. Very nice 😍

19/04/2026: We arrived at lunchtime. After a short wait, the girl who took our order came over. We asked for pasta with mussels and clams and were told they only had pasta with red shrimp and calamarata. We ordered spaghetti with red shrimp and got spaghetti with a small shrimp...not red shrimp...and a scampi...who knows... Horrible, flavorless pasta. Too bad that after eating a delicious fried fish dish, we saw the table next to us, who arrived after us, receive spaghetti with mussels and clams. We asked for an explanation and nothing...absolute silence... Meanwhile, we paid for our first course...horrendous...18 euros each. I absolutely do not recommend this place. I'm sorry, but this is not the way to behave. Too bad

19/04/2026: It's all beyond comment. Don't go there.

24/10/2025: Great Italian restaurant. Service was outstanding. We actually wanted to order pizza. The waiter said he'd bring us something better. And several plates with different dishes arrived. It was a feast and incredibly tasty. A very nice surprise from the staff. We'd be happy to come back anytime.

06/10/2025: The pizza is okay...nothing remarkable, but you'll find much better in town...just look for reviews on Google and you'll be better served elsewhere...because here it's a barracks! You arrive, they might serve you what you ordered if they want, they yell at you or look at you badly as soon as you make a comment, you eat if you want otherwise it's the same, then you pay and get out! What a totally disrespectful attitude towards customers! Goodbye!

05/05/2026: Extremely dirty place (my kids got a FEVER after staying there), full of DUST and DIRT, it's never cleaned, and the owners abuse the kitchen, which is kept in terrible condition. The bathrooms are filthy and full of "junk" on the walls. The tables aren't cleaned when a family leaves, and the floor is always full of crumbs and food debris. The inflatables for children are old and probably not up to standard, because some children get hurt on the broken slide in the ball pit, and the giant slide has several holes where children get stuck. The music is too loud, and they often put projectors in the middle of the play area, where children run, bump, and trip. The regulars are rude and ill-mannered. The "waiters" are disrespectful and look at their phones while taking orders. Outside, there's a non-descript parking lot, a soccer field with tall grass, and inappropriate drawings on the exterior walls. I STRONGLY do not recommend this place and hope the owners try to improve.

04/04/2026: Truly terrible service. The food arrived partially after an hour and a half, and the salad was eaten without oil despite being asked several times. If it weren't for this, I would have given it more stars.

14/04/2026: Great experience with good food and great prices and very helpful and friendly staff

15/02/2026: I placed an order with Just Eat, we waited well over three hours, and the pizza arrived cold. SHAME! You need to provide good customer service and not make fun of it by saying "it's being prepared," otherwise you won't accept orders. You don't even deserve one star.

14/06/2026: We were served in an unworthy manner, and our lunch was served cold because the microwave was broken (go ahead and buy it in a hypermarket). When we complained at the cashier, they replied: "Pay up and don't come back!" What can I say? Some people shouldn't be in the restaurant business, and they should brush up on their good manners and realize that a restaurant can't deny anyone access. Ignored and rude.

24/05/2026: I'm forced to give one star to write a review, but they don't even deserve this! It was a terrible experience. We went for lunch on Thursday and having ordered a turkey leg and half a chicken, they arrived practically dry cold! Inedible potatoes and after asking the waitress that the dish was extremely cold, they simply asked me to reheat it. It seemed like a dish from at least two days ago, but the worst thing is that after about an hour, my husband and I felt sick. How can you present food like this to a customer? My turkey leg was practically dry because it was definitely reheated several times. We are not animals, we are human beings who pay what they ask for anyway. We will never go there again and they will certainly get the publicity they deserve.

01/05/2026: We had lunch there during the May Day holiday. The place is welcoming and very homey; you immediately feel at home as soon as the dishes arrive, which are varied and delicious. The staff is friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I recommend it for a relaxing day filled with good food.

01/05/2026: Beautiful place surrounded by nature. You eat "just like at home" with just the right amount of homemade food and quality. Super fair prices. Excellent service. Recommended, we'll definitely be back!
