12/07/2025: We had lunch today at Gaonas in Martina Franca, and it was a wonderful experience: dining al fresco at charming shaded tables and sampling Gaonas's specialties was truly satisfying for me and my loved ones. The entire staff was distinguished by their kindness, friendliness, and professionalism. The whole-wheat bread and homemade taralli are served hot and fill the entire table with delicious aromas! I recommend everyone stop by Gaonas for lunch or dinner, as it's truly a sensory experience that satisfies every palate!

12/07/2025: We waited an hour for just the pizzas, one of which had tomato sauce even though we'd asked for a white crust. They asked if we wanted to have it remade, but fearing we'd have to wait that long, we declined. The pizzas weren't bad after all!

Charming location, very warm and welcoming staff, very friendly and accomodating gentleman helped us get a taxi back to our hotel after our app failed us. Talked to us while we waited, and although we considerably delaying him closing up, he remained incredibly gracious, and even helped us find the taxi as it arrived at the end of the street. These are the people that restore your faith in humanity. Thank you for your kindness, and for a wonderful evening. Grazie mille!

29/07/2025: Abbiamo cenato 2 volte in 10 GG di vacanza con amici. Location meravigliosa, accoglienza meravigliosa, personale meraviglioso, chef meraviglioso. Oltre la cena, è stato bello parlare con lo staff. Grazie a Teresa, mi pare che si chiami.. e grazie al ragazzo con gli occhiali che ci ha servito. Abbiamo voluto conoscere lo chef per parlarci del segreto del suo sugo con le orecchiette. Strepitoso. Da pugliese, un piatto semplice ma eccellente non lo avevo mai assaggiato. La semplicità e gli ingredienti di qualità hanno fatto di un piatto orecchiette al pomodoro, una esperienza. Per non parlarne dello spiedino di cozze Gratinate..con le verdure fresche. Mi fermo qui. La panna cotta? No vabbè. Non sono mai stato in un ristorante stellato e voglio dedicare le mie 5 stelle a x food.

18/07/2025: Estaba deseando que esto ocurriera siguiendo la recomendación de Sophie Grigson en su serie de televisión. Maravillosa cena en un entorno relajado con personal cortés e interesado Me quedé con el menú principal, comenzando con el mejor plato de pulpo que he comido en cualquier lugar que una gloriosa pierna de pollo picante rellena grande
