I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

22/10/2025: Excellent choice in San Cesario de Lecce. We ordered some fries and the burrata, mortadella, and pistachio pizza, and it was a delicacy. Very attentive and friendly. We ate there; there are two small tables outside. Many people came to place their orders. We would eat here again.

27/09/2025: A wonderful little place in a small Italian town! We had dinner here several times and tried different pizzas each time – one with traditional dough and one gluten-free. Both were amazing, and the gluten-free pizza was by far the best I’ve ever had in Italy! The staff were incredibly kind, we always got a table on the patio, and the owner was genuinely delighted to welcome visitors from Poland. Each time we were treated to limoncello and grappa, which made us feel truly special. Nowhere else in Italy have we experienced such warm hospitality. Highly recommended – and if we return to Puglia, we’ll definitely come back!

23/12/2025: Just stopped by today. Friendly staff, generous portions, and very good quality. Fair prices. Highly recommended.

01/10/2025: The food is always excellent. Fresh fish, excellent service, and a great location on the Andrano Marina coast. Excellent value for money.

21/12/2025: An exclusive and very beautiful location but in terms of service and quality it is absolutely not acceptable for the very high price you pay

21/12/2025: One of the few places that serves fresh croissants (not frozen and reheated ones), which are also excellent quality (although a bit overstuffed, which makes them difficult to eat without getting dirty...). Friendly service (even at the table) and a lovely outdoor terrace with plenty of tables overlooking the sea.

10/01/2026: New Year's Eve lunch, set menu, everything really good and high quality. I'd already been there for lunch on a Sunday and loved everything, from the food to the service. Well done!

25/09/2025: We went eating in Le Casine sull'Asso a few days ago and it was perfect! The food was delicious, the host very friendly, allergies were no problem, for every thing he had a solution and the dog is the star. One of the best evenings I ever had!

26/12/2025: A pleasant surprise during our visit to the city. Careful preparation and a warm welcome, the quality of the products used was excellent. Highly recommended for those seeking quality, impeccable service, and traditional cuisine. Excellent value for money.

28/09/2025: Great dining under a beautifully lit tree in a courtyard. The pistachio crusted bream was the best of what we ordered. The beef was too chewy. I would post the tiramisu but it was quickly devoured.

23/10/2025: Excellent venue. Welcoming structure, all amplified by the professionalism of the staff. Over-the-top food. Value for money is more quality than price for what you get.

10/10/2025: A super nice café where you can also get something to eat. The best evening of all. And the staff were super nice to us, even though we didn't speak Italian.

06/01/2026: Impeccable experience! Very beautiful place located on the sea, warm and welcoming location perhaps a little spartan, but delicious and abundant dishes, extensive menu, excellent presentation of the dishes and quality, competent and courteous staff, very fast service. I highly recommend!

30/12/2025: Well-cooked, good-quality food. Attentive, courteous, and attentive service. Quick service. Recommended place; we've been back twice in a week. Beautiful location with a sea view, beneath the tower of Sant'Isidoro.

11/12/2025: Beautiful location, fabulous food, and the very kind lady Stefania, always with a smile, accompanied us for this short lunch break!!!! We will definitely be back ❤️🫶🏻

21/11/2025: Excellent cold cuts and cheese platter. All the first courses were very good. The owner was precise in his explanations of the cold cuts platter. The girl was very kind and friendly in exchanging pleasant conversations. Congratulations. We will be back. Vincenzo, from the White City.

04/01/2026: What could be better than buying a new book and then settling into the attached bar with a spritz, tea, or coffee? A great selection of drinks and the perfect place to relax — especially if your partner likes to spend a little more time browsing the bookshelves. A calm, inviting spot that makes the whole experience even more enjoyable.

03/01/2026: Kind and professional staff...nice place...perfect value for money.

14/07/2025: Siamo stati davvero molto bene! Il servizio è stato puntuale nel rispettare l'orario della prenotazione e soprattutto molto attento nel far mangiare le bambine per prime e insieme, anche se avevano ordinato piatti differenti gesto da noi genitori molto apprezzato. Il misto fritto era davvero buono e leggero. Ottima anche la pizza, anche se personalmente l’avrei preferita un po’ più sottile ma resta comunque ben fatta e digeribile. I dolci sono una vera chicca, consiglio vivamente la millefoglie e il tiramisù, entrambi davvero deliziosi. Servizio gentile, attento e impeccabile. Una serata piacevole Consigliato

14/07/2025: Da tanti anni che andiamo in questo ristorante e ci siamo trovati sempre bene,ma questa sera ci siamo ricreduti.Abbiamo ordinato antipasto mare e terra che doveva essere x due persone ma da come ci è stato presentato non bastava nemmeno x mezza persona ( es. Un pezzetto di polipo di 3 cm può mai bastare x due? e così altre pietanze tutto minimal) .per non parlare poi della frittura di calamari presentata in piccoli pezzettini ( x farvi capire dei mini calamaretti che non sono indicati x la frittura duri e senza sapore).Chiediamo spiegazione al cameriere il quale va in cucina dallo chef per avere una risposta, ma non lo vediamo più. Chiediamo ad un'altra cameriera più esperta che ci delucita sul fatto che loro usano i calamari di piccola taglia in cucina e ci vuole rifare un'altra porzione di frittura ma noi rifiutiamo. Dopo per compensare ci offre un amaro che accetto volentieri. Vado a pagare il conto e mi ritrovo a pagare anche l'amaro . Insomma una vera amara serata.

15/01/2026: Small restaurant in the center, we ate well and spent the right amount.

07/01/2026: Welcoming place with attention to detail. Excellent local food. Excellent octopus alla pignata. Also recommended is the truly delicious mixed fried fish.

06/11/2025: Our waiter Manuella was the best. She gave us good tips for sightseeing. Also the food was nice and recommended

30/09/2025: The place is nice, away from the crowds, even if the staff isn't welcoming. Good value for money.

05/12/2025: A must-visit if you're in Salento. The atmosphere is informal, the service is good, but the food is excellent, whether it's raw, fried, or grilled. Great prices, I come back every year. It's even worth the 40-minute drive just for Capitan Morgan.

31/10/2025: How can it be that plastic tableware is still being used these days? And in a restaurant, no less! We were appalled and thought it was a joke when the waiter brought us a bottle of water and two plastic cups. Then came the cutlery, also plastic, wrapped in plastic film 😳 And then the food, guess what? On plastic plates? What's going on? Too lazy to wash them? And all this with a direct view of the sea. One can only hope that none of it ends up in the ocean. The food was alright, but it would have been much nicer served on porcelain plates. The waiters could have smiled a bit more, and walking around the restaurant with their arms crossed doesn't exactly make a good impression.

03/01/2026: Nice place, very fast service...but aside from the orecchiette with turnip tops...I haven't tried anything else. But the value for money is good.

30/12/2025: We tried the aperitif for two on the menu, nothing exciting and the price was a bit too high, drinks were not included in the price and I must say that the place was cold.
