24/02/2026: Cold environment, slow service, good food in the ingredients not well cooked

30/12/2025: A welcoming establishment in the old part of the port, located on the ground floor of the building. They only offer restaurant service. The cuisine isn't particularly varied, with just adequate preparation. The service is also adequate. Prices are particularly high. The entire establishment has been downsized compared to the past.

27/01/2026: A place that doesn't need to be loud to impress. The cuisine delights with clear flavors, fresh ingredients, and a refined touch that makes each dish special. Everything feels light, honest, and lovingly prepared. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm, ideal for a quiet evening away from the hustle and bustle. The service was attentive, friendly, and arrived at just the right moment. A restaurant you don't just visit, you take with you.

19/01/2026: La Scarpetta Hostaria is a true guarantee. High-quality ingredients, carefully prepared dishes, and authentic flavors: everything was delicious, from start to finish. The service was impeccable, with great courtesy and attention to detail. Special thanks to Giordano, the owner, who gave us excellent advice on our choice of dishes, from appetizers to dessert, making us feel truly pampered. We'll definitely be back!

04/03/2026: The best restaurant in Alberobello, for sure! Frequented mostly by locals, here you can find the true essence of Puglia in the dishes and in the hospitality of the owners and their impeccable staff. Well-organized, everything is truly delicious. We hadn't eaten at a restaurant like this in years, and what we loved most was the sourcing of local ingredients and, above all, the way they were prepared! Our compliments, they really gave us another reason to return to this beautiful region!

01/03/2026: If you're in Alberobello, plan a stop at I Ulivi. Surrounded by greenery, you can sample local dishes in a welcoming atmosphere with delightful staff.

17/02/2026: Very nice restaurant located across from the Petruzzelli. The rice, potatoes, and mussels were good. I wasn't thrilled with the panzerotto. Friendly staff. Quick service.

15/02/2026: Visiting Bari, we were recommanded this place by the host as well as travel influencers and there were so right! The portions are really generous and the price is totally fine and with no reduced quality. The food is absolutely delicious. We went twice without reservation at the start of the evening service but we would recommand to reserve your table to be comfortable. The first evening (Thursday) we took a pizza (crudaiola), some vegetables and the traditional orecchiette alle cime di rape. We are not eating meat and found so many vegetarian or fish options. The food was incredible and helped us fight our cold and the poor weather. The last night we went again and even though there was a misunderstanding in our order, the waitress changed it and was so nice that we put quickly this behind us. We went for the tuna steak (tagliata di tonno) which was incredible with red onions pickled with cloves and the ragu of octopus (tubettini al ragù di polpo) also heartwarming. We would really want to thank the pizzaiolo who we loved to observe the first night at the "pizza bar" and the two waitresses speaking english who helped us find a table and order as well as resolve our issue. Thank you so much for your dedication and your smiles. You gave us the most warm welcome to Bari

24/01/2026: Phenomenal, excellent view, excellent quality of fish, we were there in September 2025

23/09/2025: Domenico's kindness, the precise, punctual, and flavorful cuisine with the aroma of authentic Puglia. Prices are in keeping with the splendid location with sea views. Thank you, see you soon!

16/03/2026: Excellent and friendly service and great food!! A nice atmosphere!!

16/03/2026: I've been going there for 40 years, and for me, returning is a nostalgic treat. After all this time, it's still my go-to place for a good Bari-style pizza! The always-smiling staff lets you know that it's always crowded, which often compromises the tranquility.

27/12/2025: We stumbled upon it by chance, without a reservation, one day during the Christmas holidays. We'd heard good things about it, and it deserved its reputation: we had excellent raw seafood (compliments to the accompanying sauces), a first course (tagliolini spunsale and anchovy colatura), a second course (sea bass with chard cream), and two desserts. Everything was delicious! It must be said: the price isn't cheap. The service was truly friendly, both to us and to our dog. I recommend it for a special occasion.

08/12/2025: Lots of Japan influence in the food. A nice interpretation of Italian fusion food.

15/02/2026: Perfect experience, one of the most characteristic and welcoming places in the area. The owner is kind, polite, and courteous. The food quality is excellent, highly recommended.

08/02/2026: You feel at home. Friendliness, professionalism, top-notch taste. Wonderful ancient oil mill in the countryside near Gallipoli

01/01/2026: I confirm all the good things already written in the previous review.

28/12/2025: I tried this pizzeria and I have to say it was a pretty good experience. I wouldn't call it the best in the city, but the pizza is definitely quality: the dough is light and the ingredients are fresh and flavorful. It's the kind of place you'll want to return to when you're craving a good, no-frills pizza. Fair prices and fast service. A sure thing, even if it's not a miracle.
