I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

11/05/2025: We had dinner at Bacaro in Lecce and the experience was overall positive, hence the 4 stars. To start, we opted for a platter of mixed cold cuts and cheeses and some fried foods, both appreciated and tasty, perfect for whetting the appetite. The highlight of the evening was the El Maximo, a Tagliata di Filletto di Manzo di Rubia Gallega served with parmesan flakes, cherry tomatoes and rocket. The meat was excellent, tender and cooked to perfection, a real pleasure for the palate. The service was attentive and the atmosphere of the place pleasant (even if there was little air circulation and we felt a bit hot). All in all, the quality of the food is undoubtedly high. However, I must point out a couple of aspects that did not convince me entirely. First of all, I found the prices a bit high compared to average. Secondly, a small critical note goes to the menu layout, which I found a bit messy and with some small grammatical errors here and there, a detail that clashes a bit with the general care of the place and the dishes. Despite these small flaws, the goodness of the cuisine amply justifies a positive evaluation and I would definitely recommend Bacaro to those looking for quality meat dishes in Lecce.

27/04/2025: Positive experience. The welcoming environment and pleasant atmosphere made the evening pleasant. The staff proved to be friendly and attentive, helping to create a hospitable atmosphere. Sufficient starter, first course of excellent quality and flavour. A place that is definitely worth a visit for those looking for good food and top-notch service.

27/04/2025: Sarebbe dovuta essere una serata con amici e figli tranquilla...ma così nn è stato! Siamo coppie con figli di 10 anni, che abitualmente escono con noi genitori, pertanto portiamo appresso fogli, colori ecc per farli stare seduti e nn disturbare nessuno! Ma questo nn è bastato!!! Il titolare è uscito prima ancora di fare l ordine, andando dai bambini e minacciandoli che se avessero alzato la voce nn gli avrebbe portato la pizza! Noi genitori stupiti, ma abbiamo raccomandato i NS bambini di nn alzare la voce, ma questo nn è bastato!! Siamo andati a pagare, il primo commento è stato della cameriera, dopo aver preso la mancia di Euro 5.00, ha esordito dicendo " menomale, che ve ne state andando!!!"per arrivare al titolare, informandoci che in molti ristoranti nn sono " ammessi" i bambini, Lui ci ha fatto una cortesia!!!! DOPO QUESTO COMMENTO, SIAMO ANDATI E SICURAMENTE NN CI METTEREMO PIÙ PIEDE!!! Pertanto Vi consiglio di frequentare questo posto solo se volete cenare DA SOLI!!

16/04/2025: A modern but at the same time familiar and welcoming pizzeria, located in the heart of Squinzano. The menu offers a perfect balance between tradition and creativity, with proposals that know how to surprise. I tasted the "Frisa Party" pizza: an explosion of flavor never experienced before, a true reinterpretation of the frisa in a pizza key. Simply magnificent! A unique gem that I only found here. Excellent food, quick and friendly service. Also perfect for families: high chairs and booster seats are available for the little ones. Highly recommended!

03/05/2025: Best pizza I ate during my entire trip to Italy... Perfect 😁

02/05/2025: Mandatory stop, on the May long weekend we had a wonderful dinner and they served us even better

21/10/2024: A great little hotel within walking distance of the beautiful old town of Otranto. Very nice employees who enhance the ambience even more. The owner has turned the hotel into a small nautical museum. 😉

20/08/2024: A perfect stay My husband and I stayed for ten days in August at La Corte di Nettuno, a hotel located a few steps from the Aragonese Castle. Thanks to the staff, who satisfied us in every way and pampered us, it was a truly splendid ten days. Starting from the very clean and fragrant room, the plentiful and quality breakfast (sweet and savory) and the truly excellent dinner. Furthermore there was a shuttle that took us to the beach (twenty minute ride) located near the Baia dei Turchi (which could be easily reached from the beach). Both the staff and the owner were very nice to us and the latter even gave us his own coffee as a gift. The property boasts a maritime collection on display located on each floor. The staff members are all competent, both on the professional and human side, all being very empathetic. In particular Antonio, a great connoisseur of Apulian history and wines as well as local products; the very kind Arianna who took all the needs of the moment to heart; Christian who remembered all our preferences by heart; Romina and Paola are always available and ready to give you all the necessary information and in general everyone, from the night receptionists, the cleaners, the excellent chefs and the shuttle driver Mauro, made us experience ten wonderful days. We will definitely be back. I strongly recommend Hotel la Corte di Nettuno.

07/05/2025: The Magician of Focaccia in Copertino was a truly pleasant discovery! The restaurant is located almost at the end of the city, next to the sports center, and is welcoming and well-kept, with a space that is not too large but well organized. Furthermore, for those who want to stop and eat on the spot, there are some comfortable sofas that make the environment even more pleasant. As soon as you enter, you find yourself in front of a display case that is a true spectacle for the eyes and the appetite: chock-full of freshly baked goodness, hot, fragrant and freshly prepared. Every product we tried was delicious, made with care and with ingredients that immediately felt fresh and of high quality. The staff was very kind, smiling and helpful, ready to advise and serve with attention. Another strong point? The prices! Absolutely excellent and accessible, which makes the quality-price ratio truly unbeatable. I definitely recommend a visit: whether you want a spectacular focaccia, a tasty snack or simply something good and genuine, you will be safe here.

07/05/2025: Nice place, simple. Courteous and good food!

28/04/2025: Nothing special! "Dry" pizza and very salty raw ham! Location a little confusing. On one side, karaoke evening and on the other, a big screen to follow the football match. The two environments are communicating therefore, chaos to no end.

22/05/2025: We had dinner and lunch several times, a large menu of sea and land, everything very very good, clean and welcoming location. The first courses were a real delight as was everything else. The pizzas were also very good, well-leavened dough and excellent ingredients.
