I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lecce

07/09/2025: Wide variety of beers. The best in Lecce.

03/09/2025: Excellent selection of craft beers, both on tap and pump, for English styles, plus plenty of bottles and cans in a casual and charming setting. Delicious and original sandwiches.

11/09/2025: A lovely place with lots of outdoor tables in a quaint little square. Almost no traffic. They offer a wide variety of sandwiches, and they're all worth trying. I've been there twice, and it's always been a discovery of new flavors. It's also great for families with children, as they serve delicious fries. It's a great place to try in the summer, but I'm not sure how it is in the winter. There are free parking spaces in front of the place (often busy) or in the narrow streets nearby. The staff is friendly and attentive, almost like family.

02/09/2025: Nice atmosphere in the square. The burgers are good. I'll be back!

10/10/2025: Everything was excellent: raw appetizer, baked amberjack, fried squid and the excellent spumone.

08/10/2025: A very beautiful location. With breathtaking views of the sea during the day. A menu featuring various fish dishes. There are also children's dishes without fish. Fresh fish from the daily catch is also available. Very attentive and friendly staff. Completely satisfactory.

06/10/2025: Homemade food. The pasta was excellent.

27/09/2025: Very good restaurant, the food is very good, the menu is varied, but remember to book as it is often full.

24/09/2025: Amazing place! The burgers and paninis were delicious and full of flavor. The atmosphere is super cozy with a great vibe, and the warm welcome from the staff made the experience even better. Plus, having cats around makes it such a unique and fun spot. Definitely recommend!

06/09/2025: Kindness, courtesy, and thoughtfulness are the first three words that come to mind when I think of this place. Excellent food and a relaxed atmosphere. I was just passing through Otranto, but if I were to find myself in the area, I would definitely return. I'd also say the price was excellent.

08/09/2025: Typical Salento food with products from their farm. Highly recommended.

02/09/2025: I used the restaurant for a party/dinner with friends. The food was family-style. The appetizers were average, the first and second courses excellent, and the desserts were of a high standard, prepared by the in-house pastry shop.

10/10/2025: Very welcoming place, kind and helpful staff, the meat is excellent, every time I go to Specchia I eat at this place.

08/10/2025: Come back to evaluate other dishes

22/10/2025: Very well received, attentive team, exceptional pizza for the price, in a traditional Lecce atmosphere. We were served by two servers, a man and a woman, who were brilliant. Very kind, very professional and with a very good sense of humor. The owners were also very pleasant, offering us two cups of coffee, following a personal request. I would like to emphasize the food which was top notch! 10/10. I highly recommend this establishment. Thanks again to them for this unforgettable moment!!

22/10/2025: Excellent trattoria, strategically located for visiting the city center. Delicious pizza, and the courtesy of Bruno and the staff makes the experience exceptional. Top!

18/10/2025: I wanted to thank Mrs. Barbara and her family for the excellent tasting of their culinary and pastry products and for the excellent famous RUSTICO (the best in Lecce)

17/10/2025: Wonderful experience! Barbara is wonderful.

06/10/2025: That dinner at Tenutta Linaza was a marvel from start to finish. In the middle of the fields of Puglia, with that soft sunset light, everything seemed to be taken from an Italian movie. The food? Sublime. Each dish was a celebration of the land: the fresh fish as if it had just come out of the sea and was brought to your table, homemade pasta that made you close your eyes with pleasure and that wine… as if the vineyard was telling you its story with every sip. And for dessert, Emilio’s tiramisu was a masterpiece. Not only delicious—it was one of those desserts that makes you speechless, because every spoonful deserves to be contemplated. The cream was soft as a cloud, with that perfect balance between mascarpone and just the right touch of sweetness. But what really made it special were Emilio and Clara. They carry it with a natural elegance, without pretension. They make you feel at home, as if you were part of the family. Emilio, with that calm smile, recommends dishes as if he had known you all his life. Clara, with an eye that observes everything, makes sure that every detail is in its place. It is one of those places where you don't just dine: you live an experience.

30/09/2025: Tenuta Linazza: relaxation, nature, and family fun Our experience at Tenuta Linazza was truly special. Beyond the beauty of the location and the quality of the hospitality, what made our stay unforgettable was seeing our son having fun with the owners' children, Emilio and Clara. Between outdoor games, laughter, and running around with Pongo, their wonderful dog, he experienced moments of pure happiness. The pool, nestled among the olive trees, is a little paradise: perfect for relaxing and entertaining children safely, surrounded by nature. The accommodations are tastefully designed, comfortable, and immersed in a landscape that invites peace and tranquility. The restaurant is a real discovery: delicious dishes, prepared with local ingredients and served in a warm and convivial atmosphere. Emilio and Clara are exceptional hosts, always available and attentive, capable of making every guest feel like part of the family. We recommend Tenuta Linazza to anyone looking for an authentic place to relax and enjoy precious moments with loved ones. We can't wait to come back!

05/10/2025: Welcoming place, very kind and cheerful staff. Highly recommended.

26/08/2025: I'm sorry I accidentally gave only one star, but I want to emphasize that five would be too few to describe what Lussy means to my family... Lussy is home to us; we've been loyal customers for many years. Everything at Lussy is top-notch: the quality and flavor of the dishes, the cleanliness and welcoming atmosphere, and above all, the professionalism and kindness of the owners. Lussy and Gastronomia Ciceri e Tria are and will always be number one for us!!!

10/10/2025: We had dinner at La Chiacchieretta today. I wonder how some people can give it a good review. The restaurant is very small, and the decor is beyond minimalist. They only provide paper coasters and cheap paper napkins. However, they charge for coperto. The value for money is absolutely terrible. The worst part was the side dishes for the main course. A half-baked potato and a portion of cicoria cost €15. I can't recommend it.

22/09/2025: A wedding favor with excellent cuisine, the fruit of love and passion

09/10/2025: "Urban" is characterized by a very authentic American atmosphere, reflected in the decor and style of the venue, with industrial details, warm lighting, and raw materials like wood and metal, creating a bold and original atmosphere. This style enhances the experience, making guests feel immersed in a typical American setting, perfect for enjoying quality burgers accompanied by a wide selection of craft beers, from boldly bitter to lighter and fresher. The staff, always friendly and knowledgeable, is available to recommend the perfect beer based on personal tastes, helping to make the experience even more enjoyable. The combination of urban American style, good food, and a wide selection of beers creates a complete and memorable experience. It is certainly a reference point for those who love quality pubs with a lively yet refined atmosphere, where they can feel at home despite the lively urban atmosphere.

11/09/2025: Great place for a casual evening with friends. Excellent food, especially the Classic Smoked Burger, probably the best sandwich I've ever had, but the patatas and churros are also worth trying. Excellent value and super friendly staff.

11/09/2025: Restaurant a little away from the tourist crowd. Good food. The pasta is tasty. Avoid the salted shrimp, which is expensive and not great. The bottled wine is much better value than the glass.

10/09/2025: We tried the tasting menu: everything was delicious! The octopus meatballs in particular (my favorite) and the pignata dish were a pleasant surprise, rich in flavor and tradition. An experience worth trying. Recommended!
