I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

24/12/2025: A unique experience, with a knowledgeable, welcoming, and professional staff. The dinner was sublime, starting with the appetizers, a treat for the palate, and continuing with the delicate yet persistent first course. The second courses were an explosion of flavors, both the lamb and the cooked veal. The inevitable dessert was a must... In short, you have to try it to understand. Compliments to the chef and his team.

09/12/2025: The location is very unique. The aperitif was served in a former quarry dug into the ground and later covered with a barrel vault. Dinner took place in the cellar, where enormous oak barrels, each holding 6-8,000 liters, are stored. The simple yet refined dinner was appropriate for the unique setting.

01/06/2026: The place is old and very basic, but perhaps that's what makes it charming. The pizza is excellent, with a very Neapolitan dough. A little more toppings and I would have given it 5 stars. Good value for money.

30/05/2026: It's a local pizzeria. We were the only tourists. Family atmosphere. The pizza was a 10/10!! Thin crust, excellent edge, and a great variety of toppings. If you come to Lecce, you can't miss it!!

09/06/2026: I go back every time I'm in Salento, highly recommended.

04/06/2026: Top...I'll be back...true Salento hospitality...sincere and kind, and the food is excellent! Simone is the added bonus!

13/05/2026: The pizza was delicious! There are different varieties! Perfect for eating on the go and enjoying your stroll.

10/05/2026: Delicious pizzas served by the slice, made with fresh local produce, very light and crispy crust, toppings that are neither greasy nor too salty. A real treat.

01/06/2026: Third time at Luna Blu and once again a super positive experience! Excellent pizza, quality meat, friendly staff, and fast service. It's always a pleasure to return. Recommended!

20/05/2026: A very beautiful and welcoming atmosphere. The staff is attentive and kind. I recommend it.

09/06/2026: The welcome was excellent; without being pushy, they were always attentive and offered great advice on both food and wine. The Argentinian Black Angus beef was perfect. The tiramisu was okay. A cozy place, really lovely.

06/06/2026: Excellent food—the tartare, steak, and wine were outstanding. However, a clear point deduction for the service, which was inattentive and clearly untrained.

10/06/2026: Beautiful setting, great entertainment, calm, smiling staff.

05/06/2026: beautiful outside, we all sing and dance together

29/11/2025: The food is a perfect combination of sophistication, quality, and masterful preparation. The menu follows seasonal trends. The desserts ended the evening beautifully. The service was courteous and fast. The staff's manner was delicate. The ambience is refined, with a simple design and beautiful lighting. Thank you, with the Genoese-style propellers, you've brought back a fond childhood memory. For those reading this: If you're looking for something sophisticated, not the usual dishes, I highly recommend it.

19/11/2025: Super good from appetizer to dessert

29/05/2026: It's my first time in Puglia, a beautiful region. I've visited the entire coast from Otranto to Porto Cesareo, but one evening I decided to spend an evening at Locanda dei Camini in Botrugno (LC), recommended by my nephew, a lover of raw fish—not fresh, but very fresh. I had a delightful evening, starting with the appetizer and ending with the main course, all fish-based, with a few dishes featuring grilled cuttlefish. Everything was excellent, but the Sicilian-style sea bream with tiny capers and local olives was truly exceptional. Yes, truly, I've never eaten as well as at this restaurant. Then it all went with an authentic, top-quality French champagne, and to finish, several semifreddos made with cream, pistachio, dark chocolate, and hazelnut spumoni—a true delight. It was a huge hit with the excellent product. Fantastic. I'll definitely be back. The service was impeccable. Thank you for your hospitality.

24/05/2026: Unique experience and quality food 🔥

03/05/2026: The place may be nice, the rooms are small, but as far as the food is concerned, it's nice, but for a place like this located in that context, I expected more variety of meat.

23/04/2026: Amazing home cooked traditional food. Lovely ambience. Very efficient service. Highly recommend

15/05/2026: Welcoming and relaxing, excellent food

10/02/2026: The location is simply excellent!!! Impeccable service...everywhere...commendable. The food was truly unique...in flavor, and every dish was delicious! It was a pleasure to spend a pleasant evening here for dinner...and Sergio was incredibly friendly. Congratulations...

06/06/2026: Everything was truly delicious. Fresh, high-quality ingredients, especially the fish-based first and second courses. We ate outside and it was truly relaxing.

06/06/2026: Excellent quality and impeccable service right in the city center! My partner and I had lunch at this trattoria and were thrilled! From the appetizers to the first courses and everything else, everything was delicious. Plus, the kindness of the entire staff made us feel right at home! Highly recommended ♥️

12/06/2026: A great place with romantic lighting, jazz music and good food at a reasonable price. Try it out.

03/06/2026: I had dinner with my wife. We ordered orecchiette with broccoli rabe, orecchiette with meatballs, and bombette pasta. We also ordered chicory and fava beans, which wasn't on the menu, and the very kind owner accommodated us. What can I say... the food tasted like homemade and so delicious we'd return. Thank you for your hospitality.

29/05/2026: Fantastic pizza and a friendly atmosphere. Prices are from another era, and the staff's kindness and friendliness are hard to find these days.

26/05/2026: Two of us came and found a seat right away. The old man is a bit grumpy and makes a few off-color jokes, and the waiter disappears every now and then. The pizza was watery (the toppings seemed to be floating and ran off), although overall it was good. The location is nice only because the church is in front, but people walk by and there are lots of flies that land on and over the pizza.

30/04/2026: The welcome was warm, with delicious amuse-bouches and a glass of prosecco. The food was fantastic, served by the chef. This restaurant was recommended by our Airbnb host Giancarlo, and rightly so! Go eat here if you love delicious and authentic (Italian) food and hospitality in an intimate atmosphere. Added later: we dined there as a couple.

27/04/2026: Stellar. A refined culinary surprise in the heart of Salento.
