I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

09/10/2025: We had already been there four years ago, and we've returned twice on this holiday to Castro, and it's always a confirmation. Beautiful location.

08/09/2025: There was only one thing I didn't like: besides paying the cover charge, which is right, they charge for the bread separately.

14/10/2025: Friendly service, delicious food. Try the Corte Micali antipasto!

23/09/2025: 09/2025 - a beautiful interior courtyard to enjoy a crispy pizza. Great value for money - 2 buratta-based pizzas for €28. Very calm atmosphere with classical music in the background. We recommend 👌

25/09/2025: Highly recommended It's a welcoming and clean place, the products are good, and the beer is excellent. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

12/09/2025: Surrounded by greenery, excellent service and friendly staff.

18/12/2025: Excellent trattoria, both for its elegance and the knowledge of its staff, and for the quality of its food. A typical Salento trattoria, it stands out for its menu.

13/09/2025: Excellent food and pleasant location.

05/01/2026: A very positive experience; we were welcomed by Mr. Cesare, who made us feel at home. We ate quality products typical of Salento cuisine. A small space with a trattoria-like setting that still holds its own against all the gourmet restaurants/grills. The dishes are prepared according to tradition, as if they were cooked by your grandmother; Anna, the chef, is excellent. I will definitely return. Very fair price. Go Lecce!

15/10/2025: Recommended for those looking for quality, home-made cuisine.

18/09/2025: We enjoyed the food and felt good.

04/09/2025: We sat outside until the restaurant and kitchen opened shortly after 7 p.m. The decor was beautiful, both inside and out. Our kids were entertained on the beach. One of the waiters even spoke German and was super friendly. The food and drinks were also delicious. Thank you very much.

17/11/2025: 50 euros for a plate of pasta with mediocre sardines and a tasteless octopus leg; a small glass of wine was 6 euros. They served us late for lunch, but that's no excuse for such mediocre food and rushing us to leave. Not recommended at all.

06/10/2025: Good cuisine with seafood. The wine and desserts were good choices.

24/07/2025: I eat there every day, the home cooking is spectacular. Great company. Recommended.

11/06/2025: I came in to have a snack, or asked for two sandwiches with mortadella that were already ready, and inside the sandwich a green fly, how disgusting, the food on the counter was not protected, he put the film on it after having reported it, never again

26/01/2025: I went 2 days ago, great atmosphere and excellent live music, I recommend it for spending the evening

15/11/2025: I ordered a pizza without mozzarella due to my lactose intolerance, but was served a pizza with mozzarella anyway, justifying the mistake by saying that, in their opinion, a pizza with only two ingredients "wouldn't turn out well." Despite my specific request for health reasons, the staff—particularly a waitress named Erika—arrogantly insisted, trying to explain to me how the pizza "should be made," instead of apologizing for the mistake. Furthermore, the fries were reheated, and the overall service was poor, with zero courtesy: no one even said a simple "sorry," and no discount was offered for the poor service. I would, however, like to highlight the courtesy of a curly-haired waiter who worked at the bar but went out of his way to accommodate our request, and of the curly-haired waitress with glasses who took our first order anyway. Conclusion: I highly recommend this place.

04/10/2025: Closed while it says open on Google, drove there especially for nothing.

23/10/2025: Excellent local cuisine in a charming bucolic setting

15/10/2025: A truly exquisite dinner, a traditional restaurant and traditional food, extremely friendly staff, and unique dishes. I highly recommend it!

02/01/2026: If I could give you one piece of advice, go and enjoy some excellent fresh fish cooked to perfection! I recommend the scialatiello with braised sea bass, a perfect combination of a first course and a second course, a real treat! Well done, guys, well done chefs!

07/12/2025: Everything was delicious... then on Sunday the lunch show was a blast!!!!

08/12/2025: Everything was good, prices were reasonable, the staff were friendly and helpful, the fried foods and pizzas were excellent, and the place was welcoming but not particularly elegant!

15/11/2025: We waited 1 hour and a half for two pizzas…pretty good

03/01/2026: Five of us had lunch. The seafood appetizer was limited in quantity and variety, with fried meat croquettes added just to fill the plate. The pasta entrees were limited in quantity and overpriced. I can't even begin to tell you how much they paid for a pasta and tomato dish for a child. In short, with these prices, you can only fleece the poor tourists, but a "local" will never be interested or able to come and eat at your place. The place isn't really that great to justify such prices.

23/11/2025: At Ginetto's, delicious food, good service, and an excellent atmosphere. A lovely, relaxing Sunday at Ginetto's...Thank you.

20/12/2025: The owner was very kind and friendly, very helpful... Excellent location in the center... Good and plentiful breakfast... Highly recommended

21/09/2025: Friendly, clean hotel, good breakfast
