I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiananella città Cisternino della Brindisi

02/11/2025: Excellent. Traditional Apulian cuisine, including some hard-to-find dishes. The staff is cheerful and engaging. The service is excellent. They offered us sorbets, coffees, and liqueurs. The value for money is excellent. The only downside is the noise: the dining room was packed, and many of us were talking loudly. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic Apulian cuisine.

21/10/2025: About 5 km from Cisternino and 10 km from the wonderful town of Ostuni, in the heart of beautiful Puglia, in the Casalini area, lies this delightful restaurant, a must-try if you're in the area and especially if you're a true foodie! The cuisine is nothing short of exceptional! The dishes showcase typical inland Apulian cuisine! They're reminiscent of the Sunday meals our grandmothers cooked with so much love and passion (I think that's the highest comparison and compliment one can make). The appetizers offer a wide variety of choices, all exquisite, especially the eggplant parmigiana and the beef stew (absolutely not to be missed!). The first courses are also all delicious, and I especially recommend the orecchiette with turnip tops (exceptional!). The abundance of first courses is a distinctive feature of this restaurant and is truly indescribable (one first course is comparable in quantity to about three main courses at other restaurants). The main courses are also excellent, especially the tripe, so tender it melts in your mouth and cooked to perfection! The ingredients are top-quality, as are the cuts of meat. Add to this the skill and passion for cooking of Mr. Vito (the chef and owner), and the dishes become true poetry for the palate! It's a family-run business, and the owners are extremely kind, friendly, and accommodating to their guests' needs and requests. Table service is fast and efficient. The lady serving is very attentive, friendly, and sociable. The restaurant is rustic yet refined and well-maintained, with paintings on the walls that recall this wonderful region, particularly the Itria Valley. The atmosphere is informal and relaxed, suitable for all ages—children, adults, and seniors. It's popular with groups of foreign tourists, who bring a lot of cheer to the place. Free parking is also very easy to find nearby. Finally, the prices are more than fair. The quality-quantity-price ratio is excellent! It's a restaurant I highly recommend trying. If you go once, you'll definitely return! We, being fortunate to be from Puglia, always return with great pleasure, to the delight of our palates! 🍝😋👍👍👍

10/11/2025: A fantastic experience, qualified staff, excellent raw materials and the chef really good at enhancing them.

09/11/2025: The restaurant is a true gem, where the friendliness of the owner and the entire staff is immediately evident. From the moment you arrive, the warm welcome creates a familiar and pleasant atmosphere, making you feel truly at home. The service is attentive and friendly, always ready to offer expert advice and satisfy every request with a smile. As for the food, every dish is a delight: the freshest ingredients, expertly combined to enhance the authentic flavors of the cuisine. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking not only for excellent cuisine but also for a welcoming environment where they can feel pampered by the staff.

04/11/2025: Delicious and super fresh pastries. Good coffee and a lovely little spot at the side of the road.

07/10/2025: Very friendly service, delicious coffee, a large selection of croissants and brioche, all very fresh. Wind-protected seating 👍🏻

08/11/2025: Top location and excellent quality meat... It's always a pleasure to come back!

03/11/2025: A lovely little place to enjoy excellent meat. The butcher's counter is very well stocked. They don't take reservations, but you walk in on a first-come, first-served basis, choose your meat, and then sit inside the small room at your assigned table. You can also order delicious local appetizers, and I highly recommend the baked potatoes drizzled with excellent local olive oil. I've been there twice and will definitely return for top-quality meat. My group and I ordered entrecôte, diaphragm, zampina, and their fabulous breaded bombette. The entrecôte and diaphragm literally melted in your mouth and were cooked to perfection, all accompanied by an excellent house Primitivo. My rating? 10 out of 10.

10/10/2025: Great food, great service, great atmosphere at a fair price.

01/09/2025: We'll definitely be back. Very discreet, excellent food, service, etc. See you next time.

30/08/2025: A better chicken shop than Cisternino, everyone come here to eat the chicken, it's delicious.

12/08/2025: the addor s sent from the beginning of via roma

20/11/2025: Good meat and excellent selection. Excellent steaks, but they don't have premium imported steaks. Above average, though.

14/10/2025: I recommend it...it's my first time here but everything was excellent.

05/11/2025: The best ricotta cake with black cherries I've ever eaten!!

03/11/2025: A small café with a magnificent panoramic view of the valley, a nice place to take a break, at the entrance to the old town.

17/09/2025: excellent service, quality and excellent prices

30/07/2025: Sandwiches with top-quality meat in the charming setting of Cisternino's main square at a super fair and competitive price. A guarantee in Cisternino, unique in its format.

05/08/2025: Cibo ottimo, personale attento e disponibile, siamo stati nella saletta al piano inferiore arredata con gusto e molto accogliente!

04/08/2025: Posto carino, atmosfera piacevole e cibo buono. Il personale è molto cortese. Consigliato per serate in cui non si vuol mangiare troppo.

28/10/2025: Excellent spot to dine and enjoy a lovely glass of wine (or two — no judgment). Great food, charming vibe, and that easy Italian magic that makes you linger. If you’re in the area, don’t miss it.

17/10/2025: Excellent meals, service and environment. It was quiet for a mid-week night and we were skilfully relocated from the garden after it started to rain. Good options and high quality dining in this wonderful town!

17/11/2025: Poor experience. Very crowded and disorganized place. As soon as we arrived, we were immediately asked to order meat. We asked for medium rare. In the meantime, we ordered orecchiette with tomato sauce. After an hour and a half, they brought them. After another hour, the meat arrived. An entrecote, terrible, tough, burnt. Normal sausage. We pointed out the incident to the owner, but he didn't respond and, in the end, the bill was very high. They don't care about the satisfaction of the occasional customer. The important thing is to satisfy the local customers, regulars. We noticed this in the difference, both in the dishes and in the treatment.

02/11/2025: We were there this evening and never again! 3 euros per person for cover charge, sitting on a bench and practically glued to the next table, so much so that I was elbowed by the lady behind me... service was poor to say the least, the waitress barely showed up a couple of times. We ordered meat with side dishes that never arrived, finding ourselves eating the meat without any accompaniments. Total 175 euros for 4 people!!!! At this price I would have eaten caviar and champagne. Truly exorbitant prices and the meat was cooked too rare.

29/09/2025: Today, Monday 29th September, closed at 12.45pm despite Google saying it was open.

07/09/2025: Excellent welcome, family atmosphere, impeccable service, a real pleasure to rediscover our traditional home cooking (especially on Fridays)

29/09/2025: Fantastic, excellent, delicious, I highly recommend

26/09/2025: The place is sumptuous. The food is excellent, with only specialties. You have to try this trendy restaurant; the Italian Chardonnay is excellent... You must speak English or Italian.

29/10/2025: A wonderful place with great professional food. I can't wait to go and eat there again. The owners are fantastic.

29/10/2025: Happy to have eaten at this place, fantastic food, excellent service, highly recommended
