I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

15/09/2025: A bit too noisy and the wait is quite long. The pizza is good and huge, and the price is low.

08/09/2025: Excellent restaurant and pizzeria. Good service and a wide selection of SG options.

05/10/2025: A seaside restaurant with a breathtaking view, very refined, fresh fish cooked to perfection and served impeccably by the staff, highly recommended.

03/10/2025: After 28 years of marriage, we returned to the villa to eat, and I must say that everything was as excellent as it was that day. Thank you.

23/07/2025: Such a disappointing restaurant; no flavor. Only the service is okay.

12/07/2025: Had lunch at this beautiful restaurant, the food was of the highest quality, the service was courteous and helpful. Thanks to Antonio, whose evident professionalism was the icing on the cake. See you soon.

26/09/2025: We ate well, at a fair price (compared to the coastal locations) and above all... abundant! Good!

15/09/2025: excellent portions and quality, highly recommended especially the starters

21/09/2025: All the passion, product research, and experimentation perfectly reflect the love and dedication to the restaurant and business of the owner Roberto and his wife, the attention to detail and the continuous and innovative improvement of a truly "paradisiacal" establishment. Innovation and tradition blend perfectly in a familiar, comfortable, and professional environment (all the young staff are extremely talented, polite, and well-prepared). The care and passion in treating Roberto's farm's typical, home-grown products create a fusion of innovation and tradition, without ever abandoning the passion for the ancient and exceptional, authentic Salento cuisine, a cuisine with aromas, colors, and textures that tantalize all the senses. The exceptional structure and the wonderful location are two elements that guarantee the relaxation that this magnificent agriturismo guarantees. Highly recommended!

04/09/2025: I've been coming here for years. The staff are incredibly friendly, the rooms are super spacious, and the property is beautiful with an elegant pool. Surrounded by greenery, just a few kilometers from the sea. Ideal for those seeking tranquility. A car is needed to get around.

29/09/2025: Living in Minervino di Lecce, far from your office, I've only had the opportunity to try the grain-filled friselle baked in a wood-fired oven. Excellent product!

06/08/2025: Excellent products, mainly those cooked in a wood-fired oven

13/09/2025: We were thrilled with the cuisine, service, and location at Calamate. We stayed in Gallipoli for 12 days, and we ate there four times. It was undoubtedly the best dinners of the entire trip. The appetizer selection—the burratina, the homemade orecchiette, and the bombette (which we tried breaded and baked here)—were all exceptional, as were the grilled red tuna and the pasta with scampi. The ingredients are excellent, and the price, in my opinion, perfectly in line with what's on offer. If you're in Gallipoli, it's worth a visit!

24/08/2025: Excellent food, a very beautiful and well-maintained location, but the access road is unpaved and unlit. The least pleasant aspect was the owner, or whoever seemed to be the owner. He was kind but not at all friendly; ordering with him was like running a marathon. He made it clear he had no time to waste, albeit politely. There was no opportunity to comment on the dishes or anything else related to the dinner. The waiters were very nice. As mentioned, the food was truly excellent, especially the orecchiette.

29/09/2025: Everything was delicious, the prices were right.

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.

11/10/2025: The sandwiches and pizzas are excellent. The place is clean, but the wait times are a bit long due to the lack of advance reservations on weekends. I would return often and recommend it.

25/09/2025: Beautiful place, excellent service, very kind and welcoming staff, very reasonable prices, lots of choice, and the sandwiches are out of this world. Highly recommended, I'll be back. Quality ingredients, juicy, melt-in-your-mouth meat, soft, well-seasoned bread.

05/10/2025: High-level chef, excellent food, remarkable raw seafood and catch of the day. Friendly and pleasant service.

05/10/2025: Excellent food, excellent service, just meters from the Roman amphitheater. The price was a bit steep for our budget (not absolutely), but considering the quality of the ingredients and their preparation, the location, and the professionalism and courtesy of the staff, it's all worth it. A seafood dinner with an appetizer, a first course, a second course shared for two, two glasses of wine, a delicious and surprising dessert, and a passito. The entree also included a selection of ten baked goods (a variety of bread, focaccia, and pizzo leccese) and the chef's after-dinner treats (with several dessert samples), offered by default to all guests. Total: €135. The quality of the seafood was excellent. Once in a while, for those with a modest standard of living and a low-to-medium income, it's a truly enjoyable experience.

14/10/2025: Wonderful place. Great food. The service from Odette was first class!

29/09/2025: Disappointing. A place with a nice view and a good location, but the food is despicable. My wife and I ordered a burrata appetizer that was just OK (10 euros). For 5 euros, you can get something better at the market. The biggest disappointment was the gnocchi with salmon and pistachios. Simply one of the worst dishes I've had at a restaurant in years. The gnocchi was doughy and tough. The red sauce was worse than store-bought ones. Salmon and pistachios? In name only. All this for 18 euros. Terrible, terrible, there's no other word for it.

28/09/2025: Excellent food. The price, quality, and quantity were exceptional. The place is very well-maintained, despite being a trattoria. The staff were friendly. We went in the dark, and it was a wonderful surprise. We'll be back.

20/09/2025: A surreal place, it feels like you've gone back in time, truly a leap into the past. I had a great time, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the owner was very present and thoughtful. I highly recommend it.

02/02/2025: Very welcoming restaurant with good food, courteous service and friendly owners, highly recommended.

12/09/2025: Rustic location for Germans, but great food! Highly recommended - if you're in Aradeo, you should definitely dine here 👍

03/09/2025: Yesterday we had pasta with fish and it was simply amazing! Plus, the price was great.
