I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Taranto

11/01/2026: The focaccia and panzerotti are simply excellent, the staff are friendly and efficient, and just a phone call away you're sure to find what you're looking for, even small quantities!

19/12/2025: Always a guarantee and if you are looking for the real panzerotto, you can find it there

18/03/2026: A beautifully organized graduation party, exquisite food, and impeccable service. The owner, when booking, was attentive to every detail. I've been to this restaurant before for other events and its quality is constantly improving. I highly recommend it.

05/03/2026: Excellent place, optics, cuisine, impeccable service, I recommend it.

29/04/2026: The pizza is ok, the dough is unusual, the service is so bad that it's funny to watch the staff work

16/04/2026: Excellent food and courteous service: an experience to repeat! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I dined at this restaurant tonight and was pleasantly impressed in every way. We started with a truly amazing mixed seafood and meat appetizer. The freshness of the ingredients is undeniable, and every flavor was perfectly balanced. The pan pizza served in the center was simply exquisite: light, crispy dough, and topped with top-quality ingredients. Special praise goes to the head waiter, Lucia. Her expertise and constant attention made the evening seamless and enjoyable. It's rare to find such a caring and knowledgeable professional. A note of merit is certainly not to be underestimated: the restaurant is extremely clean and well-kept. The attention to hygiene and order is evident in every corner, making the atmosphere even more welcoming and relaxing. Fresh products, meticulous cuisine, and excellent staff. We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

30/05/2026: A wonderful evening in the company of the right people. I ate wonderfully, but that's been a known fact for a lifetime. Thank you for the attention you paid to our table. The staff were qualified, polite, and helpful, which isn't always a given in our area. Recommended.

17/05/2026: A decidedly disappointing experience. For the price, everything was extremely poor and not even remotely in line with the final bill of €255, a truly exaggerated amount for the quality and quantity offered. The appetizers were very small in portions despite assurances to the contrary, and the mixed roast was nothing special and the meat didn't convince us. The service also seemed disorganized and rather forced. It was also unfortunate to find a hair in one of the dishes, an incident that negatively impacted the overall experience. The only real positive note of the evening were the desserts, freshly prepared and truly delicious.

17/03/2026: I happened to stop at this bar in the square, in the historic center of Monteparano, and the experience was truly positive. The atmosphere is clean, quiet, and well-kept—one of those places where you're happy to sit and immediately feel at ease. The products are very good, with a wide selection to satisfy a variety of tastes, from breakfast to aperitifs. The staff is a real strength: friendly, knowledgeable, fast, and always available. Even with several customers, the service remains efficient and organized. I stopped in for breakfast, but it's clear that the place is also very popular for aperitifs and social gatherings throughout the day. I know the owners, and it's fair to say so, but that doesn't change my opinion: the quality is clearly visible and perceptible. If you're passing through Monteparano, it's definitely a recommended stop. A bar that stands out and is one of the best spots in town.

14/01/2026: Excellent bar, welcoming atmosphere, and quality products. Armando, the owner, is always friendly and professional, and makes you feel right at home. A must-visit, highly recommended!

07/04/2026: The vibe is homely for me, a place to bring friends or recommend for a carefree evening. I enjoyed both the burgers and the pinzas, accompanied by excellent cocktails; everything is highly recommended! The quiz nights remain my favorite and most fun...highly recommended.

05/04/2026: Last night I went to this restaurant for the first time and will definitely be back. Table 40: Our waitress was kind, helpful, and attentive to our requests (we were two girls with food intolerances). She was even kind enough to ask about the ingredients whenever we had any questions. I forgot to ask her name because I would have included it in this review. She also showed extra consideration in moving our seats because there was a disabled girl with us who couldn't sit on the high chairs. The quality and attention from the staff were truly excellent. We will definitely be back, because finding such kind staff and accommodating people with food intolerances isn't always easy.

01/06/2026: A family atmosphere, spontaneous and genuine smiles, quality food at reasonable prices. Well done guys!

22/05/2026: Look no further for an amazing meal with personal service. Owner goes above and beyond to make you feel part of the family and loves sharing tastes of his favorites.

27/03/2026: Andrea's pasta frittatine were world-class. Martina's kindness was wonderful and sunny. This is the Gold of Naples. Thank you.

12/10/2025: Trattoria Purgatorio in Laterza is a delightful discovery: a place where the authenticity of the cuisine blends perfectly with the warm hospitality of the staff. Dishes prepared with quality ingredients, authentic flavors, and generous portions reflect the best of local tradition. The atmosphere is refined, familiar, yet elegant in its simplicity. Excellent value: it's rare to find such a successful balance of quality, hospitality, and atmosphere these days. A place to treasure and recommend without hesitation.

07/02/2026: I have to go in August I have booked

23/01/2026: I was very impressed. The property is brand new, with meticulous attention to detail. Both the lobby and the room were spotlessly clean. It's warm and welcoming. The rooms are very well-maintained, and the bathrooms are excellent. In short, nothing is missing. They are truly exquisite, hospitable, and always ready to help with any need. I will definitely return. Giovanni Orlando

03/05/2026: An evening with friends, we ordered various types of pizzas... I'd say they were good, the dough was light and crispy... then there were homemade desserts made by them and cooked in a wood-fired oven. They were delicious... we'll definitely be back.

17/04/2026: Pizzeria. Reservations required... Excellent quality pizza 🍕... almond paste desserts, etc.

11/04/2026: Excellent pizza, one of the few with a good wood-fired oven and excellent prices

04/04/2026: Congratulations :) everything good and of excellent quality, rating 10 out of 10. TOP! :)

10/05/2026: La Piccola Locanda is one of those rare discoveries that make you feel like a guest in someone else's home, in the best sense of the word. A simple, no-frills establishment, where the focus is on the authentic cuisine and the owners' warmth. From the first moment, you feel welcomed with genuine friendliness and helpfulness: the owners are always ready to accommodate guests' requests, with the flexibility typical of those who cook with passion, not pressure. The cuisine is honest, homey, made with fresh ingredients and traditional preparations that taste of the region. One of the restaurant's strengths is its value for money: the food is good, with satisfying portions, at truly fair prices, an increasingly rare occurrence. A place to return to, especially if you're looking for authenticity far from the tourist trail.

05/05/2026: Coming from Reggio Calabria we looked for where to eat... And we can say that from the food to the hospitality and the convenience... Everything is true like the other excellent reviews 🥰

14/02/2026: Watching my video makes me want to try these fantastic pan pizzas right away. The owners are incredibly kind and friendly. If you're in the Taranto area, it's definitely worth stopping by for a few slices of pizza.

02/11/2025: Always top...pan pizzas are unmatched...fried panzarotti are top

31/03/2026: A sparse and run-down location with Grand Hotel prices. Improvised cuisine and forgettable drinks! What remains indelible, however, is the smell of cigarette smoke (and not just cigarettes) in your hair, on your clothes... it's incredibly brutal to allow smoking in such a cramped space while others are eating just inches away! The lady, I think the owner, was extremely unwelcoming and rude. I don't think we'll see each other again...

29/03/2026: Welcoming and fast. We'll be back.

14/05/2026: Everything was so beautiful, it was like a movie. The room I stayed in, and the breakfast, lunch, and dinner were amazing; everything was fresh and delicious. The staff were very warm and friendly; I definitely recommend it. I came from Türkiye 👍 Thank you Tenuta Orsanese Family 🙏
