I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

21/08/2025: Beautiful experience in the center of Uggiano, it's a shame it was only on the last night before leaving.... everything was good, the meat was delicious, see you next time!!!

14/08/2025: My boyfriend and I had dinner today and the meat was truly delicious. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and approachable; they immediately made us feel at ease. You can tell the ingredients are top-quality, and the price is truly excellent for what you get. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend it!

10/11/2025: Unique concept for this location.

26/09/2025: I was truly beyond satisfied. Excellent value for money. The service was also very friendly.

16/02/2026: You can eat very well right on the sea.

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.

11/10/2025: We decided to have pizza, since we've been eating fish and meat for days. We made the right choice, it was a very good pizza.

27/09/2025: For a tourist spot, this is still a decent pizza, very good value for money. Thank you for putting real green olives on the pizzas and not black olives in brine from a can. The only downside is that I was a bit surprised to pay 2 euros per person for cutlery. I think it's a bit of a tip, even though I always leave one. In short, if you want to stop after a good visit and eat well without breaking the bank in a tourist spot, this is for you!

09/02/2026: I stumbled upon it by chance after two years of frequenting the area. It was a great discovery. From the simplest dishes to the most delicious, like the excellent sweet and sour suckling pig, wisely recommended by the very kind lady. I'll definitely be back and recommend it.

03/02/2026: Fantastic food. Every day there's always something fresh and delicious.

03/01/2026: Great place to have lunch or dinner, cozy and nice, with fast and precise service, very very good cuisine 😋

25/09/2025: Kind and attentive service—that's the best thing about Oste! A prawn-based Catalana dish that has nothing Catalan about it, except a little onion. The octopus is a bit tough, and having tasted the dishes of my companions, I can say that the quality is similar. The price is typical of a tourist restaurant for a place that had (or should have) so many cards to play. What a shame.

22/11/2025: Excellent focaccia, welcoming and accommodating waitress

31/10/2025: I've decided to give this pizzeria, located in the heart of Tricase on Via Roma, four stars because overall it was a good experience, with some very positive aspects and a few small details that could be improved. I'll start with the strong point: the location. It deserves five stars alone because it's truly excellent—it's right in the center of town, easy to reach, and perfect for an evening with friends or a stroll after dinner. The only downside is that parking is limited and not reserved, so you may have to wander around a bit to find a spot, especially on busy days. The location is modern and welcoming, tastefully furnished with attention to detail. However, the interior space is rather limited: the tables are very close together (in my case, I was about 80 cm from another table), which can take away some privacy and comfort. It's a shame, because the place has great potential and you can sense the care that went into it. As for the food, the pizzas were good, well-cooked, and made with quality ingredients. The only small inconvenience was a mistake in my order: I'd asked for a pizza with speck and scamorza, but it came with prosciutto and another cheese (which wasn't scamorza, though I don't remember exactly which). It wasn't a big deal—the pizza was still tasty—but with a little more attention, it would have been perfect. The service was kind and helpful, if a little unprepared at the time. They were just starting to use a new app to take orders, and the waitress had a few difficulties at first, but she worked hard, kept smiling, and apologized several times very politely. In the end, she managed to handle everything, and her commitment and goodwill were evident. One detail I appreciated was that, at the end of the meal, there were four desserts on the house. To be honest, they looked more like packaged donuts, but it was still a nice gesture on the part of the restaurant, and they definitely deserve thanks for their attentive service. In conclusion, it was a lovely evening, in a modern, well-kept restaurant with excellent pizza. There were a few small imperfections, but nothing that detracted from the experience. You could sense the desire to do well and improve.

28/02/2026: great location an amazing experience Food is delicious and everyone is very friendly and helpful. I have a wonderful day. great experience.

27/01/2026: I don't usually post negative reviews, but this time I have to. After my wife and I had a spa break, we moved to the masseria because the gift package included an aperitif. The experience got off to a bad start: without asking us what we were eating, they brought us a platter of cured meats and cheeses, which I personally don't like. I had asked for a fish alternative, but we were served three cold bowls: sweet and sour peppers, zucchini in oil, and mushrooms. I'll skip this because perhaps it's part of their policy, although it would be appropriate to specify this in advance. We decided to stop for lunch anyway, given the time. They brought us the menu, and reading it, I immediately realized something was wrong: I found "fresh spaghetti alla matriciana" (written exactly like that). I asked for clarification, naively hoping it was something other than the classic Roman amatriciana, but they told me it was the "usual matriciana with pancetta." A Roman would have jumped out of his seat, and I was close to doing so: everyone knows that dish is made with guanciale. I skipped ordering it and instead ordered trofie with octopus, while my wife chose a scottona steak roll. It was, honestly, one of the worst dishes I've ever eaten: poor presentation, nonexistent octopus flavor, and extremely low-quality trofie. Basically, pasta with sauce and a few tentacles thrown in. I'm not usually one to leave food, but this time I did. My wife's dish was even worse: the roll tasted like it had been microwaved, accompanied by cold mushrooms. The decision not to return was inevitable, but what made me feel most cheated was the bill: €42. You can't charge €19 per dish for such low quality, and then add the €4 cover charge already included in the other aperitivo receipt. I should point out that I'm used to spending more for a good meal, but only at restaurants that can justify such prices, not at a farmhouse that offers dishes that, at a village festival, would be better for much less. I usually don't discuss prices because I'd read them beforehand, but in this case I felt truly cheated. And above all, I never expected such poor quality from a facility associated with the Acaya Golf Club. Unfortunately, it's a place that doesn't live up to its reputation.

22/01/2026: A truly artisanal pastry shop, where the passion for the craft shines through. The products are fresh, handmade, and of impeccable quality. The pasticciotto is simply exceptional, just like in the old days. The warm welcome and family atmosphere make it a place you'll always want to return to.

30/11/2025: Entering Coco Loco is like crossing the threshold into a small culinary paradise. The welcoming and refined atmosphere invites you to linger and indulge in a moment of sweetness, but the true star is their hot chocolate: an experience that goes beyond a simple beverage. - 🍫 Unique intensity: dense, velvety, and enveloping, with a scent that captivates from the first sip. - 🌱 Quality ingredients: you can taste the use of select cocoa, expertly crafted to enhance every aromatic note. - 🎨 Refined presentation: served with care, perhaps accompanied by a small artisanal cookie that completes the experience. - 💫 Final sensation: a warm and comforting embrace, perfect on cold days or when you need a little pampering. Coco Loco is not just a café and pastry shop, but a place where chocolate becomes a ritual of pleasure and conviviality. A must-visit for those who love to be surprised by authentic flavors and a family atmosphere.

10/02/2026: A place much frequented by young people from Neretini where there is a soft and heated atmosphere.

28/01/2026: Really nice little place with frequent live music, free entry, and really good food at great prices.

24/01/2026: The pizza is delicious, the owners and employees are very kind.

19/01/2026: I wanted to try this pizzeria... I was very happy... the pizza was really good, you could taste the quality of the ingredients... I also liked the beer, as well as the dessert... very nice place, there are still some details missing from what I've been told, and there are also outdoor tables... very friendly staff, wearing masks as they should these days... definitely recommended 😋 I reiterate my opinion... I've been back, the pizza was really good 👍👍👍 The highlight of last night... I had the "pittule with Nutella and coconut" for dessert, a delicious combination... 👏👏👏 Updating my review... I tried ordering pizza for home delivery... the pizza arrived piping hot, naturally good, and crispy (I had no doubts). Excellent service!!! P.S.: Right on time...🙂 I'm back to update this review... Last night I went to Made in Sud again... to my great surprise, I saw that the outdoor dining area was available, even if a few details are still missing... it's simply AMAZING!!! So what more could you ask for... Spectacular location... delicious pizza, craft beer, and, to finish, a delicious dessert prepared by the delightful Chef Andrea... Congratulations!!! 👏👏👏 After 2 years, I'm back once again to update my review. The pizzas are always excellent, but Made in Sud also boasts excellent cuisine, starting from the appetizers to the two first courses... land and sea, expertly prepared by Chef Andrea. The hospitality, food, location, and staff were truly fabulous... I highly recommend it 👏👏👏👏👏 After quite a while, I'm back to update my review. The dining room has changed a bit, with additional tables. Last night I ordered the "Mister Satan," which was delicious. I also had the chocolate soufflé... the warm heart was perfect. The hospitality, dining room, food... Top MADE IN SUD 2.0 💯

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.

05/03/2026: The atmosphere is informal and family-friendly; I went there with colleagues. The food was excellent: bruschetta, appetizers like Ascoli olives, pizzas, and pucce (the burger version was also excellent). We dined on the terrace with pleasant background music.

15/01/2026: A wonderful, classic Italian restaurant. The price-to-quality ratio is simply unbeatable. The pizzas are all delicious and freshly prepared. If you're lucky, they might have a karaoke night, which is really fun. I'll definitely be back! 😊

19/11/2025: a place that I carry in my heart

26/09/2025: There's no escaping it: fresh, homemade products are worth buying...good, genuine, simple; pre-processed, industrial ones, especially if poorly reheated in the microwave, are almost inedible. It's a shame to find this gap. You have to know how to choose. Otherwise, they're down-to-earth, in a place that's not exactly aesthetically pleasing, but certainly does a lot of business. With a little more research, it could be even more enjoyable to return. Even when it comes to prices, some are out of line, while others are fair, if only for the quality.
