I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Puglia

09/12/2025: We chose L'Essenza in Vista for the Immaculate Conception Lunch, and the experience was truly excellent. The chef's special menu was meticulously crafted and full of authentic flavors. The land and sea appetizers were a great start: a selection of Martina Franca capocollo, blueberry burrata, and truly delicious mushroom meatballs, along with gratinated salmon cubes and cuttlefish in a creamy chickpea sauce. The portions were just right, and great attention was paid to the quality of the ingredients. The seafood cavatelli were also delicious, creamy and fragrant, as was the sea bass turban with saffron velouté, exquisitely delicate. The side dish, a baked potato, was also excellent, perfectly complementing the dish. To finish, a beautifully made puff pastry with cream and berries and a selection of fresh fruit. The service was courteous and punctual, and the atmosphere was elegant yet relaxed. A perfect celebration: good food, carefully prepared dishes, and great professionalism. Highly recommended for events and celebrations!

21/09/2025: An experience that amazed me! Don't expect the usual restaurant and the usual dishes. It's all very good and refined. We tried the appetizers, with many specialties from both land and sea. The cleanliness of the place is impeccable. The dishes and glasses were sparkling. The staff was very polite and friendly. A place that's not at all crowded. Very simple and refined!

12/10/2025: I visited Palazzo San Giorgio during the 2025 cake festival and it is beautiful

29/09/2025: A charming, welcoming and efficient residence

07/12/2025: A welcoming, family-friendly place with professional, helpful staff. Definitely recommended for a wonderful experience, one we'll definitely repeat. Thank you for everything.

09/11/2025: Talk about top...! Here we are at the top.

30/09/2025: Dream place, it looks fake because of how beautiful it is!!! Just look at the photos!

24/09/2025: Unfortunately, it was already closed on September 23rd. I found information about it online on Google. We drove there especially and found the doors closed. The scenery is stunning, though, and when it's open, it's sure to be incredibly beautiful.

31/07/2025: Very good food. The owner was very attentive and friendly. He opened the kitchen for us even though it was already closed and served us very kindly. We also had a private concert. It was great!

17/07/2025: Kindness reigns supreme, as do food and cleanliness!!!

25/08/2025: A very welcoming and elegant place. Exquisite staff and excellent cuisine. Definitely worth returning.

23/08/2025: On every occasion and for every event he has always been excellent.

26/08/2025: The kindness of Mr. Maurizio Cezzi: if only we could give him 100 stars! The well-kept, harmonious, and clean grounds inspire a sense of relaxation and well-being. The climbing plants on the property are stunning, a peaceful retreat ideal for unwinding from the daily grind and reconnecting with nature. The private and convenient pool is also available.

24/08/2025: My boyfriend and I vacationed at Tenuta Sant'Andrea. The place is truly fabulous, strategically located for reaching the most beautiful places. We had a wonderful time. Matteo's kindness and hospitality were priceless. He made us feel at home right away and gave us helpful tips on all the places to visit. For anyone looking for a vacation in Salento, Tenuta Sant'Andrea is an absolute must!

03/12/2025: A welcoming atmosphere, extremely friendly staff, and exquisite dishes. Perfect for a cozy evening with friends.

17/08/2025: The evening was ruined by terrible service, to say the least. We were served by an embarrassing waiter who kept making unpleasant and meaningless jokes. He started by telling us that the octopus was out and that he obviously had nothing to do with it and therefore didn't want to make a fool of himself. When we asked for missing cutlery and glasses, he always responded arrogantly. The professionalism was absolutely zero. The cuisine was mediocre. We ordered four plates of grilled picanha, and more than half of it was greasy. I'm very sorry, but I absolutely do not recommend this place.

01/12/2025: Very good food and service. We hâd no reservation, for sure I will recommens reservation, the place was full, but for us, being just two, they managed to find a table. A lot of attention from the personnel, the food was great, the Prosecco was good. We took some spaghetty and pasta with seafood, love it

28/11/2025: It was very good. The carpaccio of different fishes was great. Really recommend it

18/11/2025: Divine lunch, congratulations! We were there yesterday, a Monday in November, at a table on the veranda with a glass window that lets you enjoy the sea, which has its charm even in winter. We left delighted. We'll be back soon! Thank you 🤗

21/10/2025: Lazy bartender...uncleared tables...noisy computer files. No!

21/10/2025: Good greek place in Lecce. Good quality/price ratio. Service is somehow slow, but polite. Little bit crowded if you cannot stay outside. Recommended.

17/10/2025: If you are in Lecce or the wider area and you are tired of pasta and pizzas then Ambrosia is the place for you. You must try the skepasti, the moussaka, the sheftalia and the Ambrosia salad and definitely for dessert the loukoumades with ice cream. Also the owner is very friendly, helpful and warm-hearted and you feel like you are eating in the center of Athens. Highly recommended and we will definitely visit again. See you soon

08/11/2025: A restaurant in a quiet little square in the beautiful historic center of Cisternino; the food is very good, but the kitchen and service are extremely disorganized. Prices are high.

07/10/2025: Food was cold and way below average. Had stomach ache after eating the tuna. Plates were served separately even though it was very quite. Atmosphere could be better with dimmed light.

07/09/2025: I ate very well and I recommend it.

04/09/2025: Always "Satisfied"... Dishes prepared and presented with care.... Kind and attentive staff.... Recommended.

02/06/2025: Posto molto curato, semplice ed elegante. Il personale tutto altamente professionale ed attento, nulla é lasciato al caso, lodevole il lavoro che svolgono. Le portate sono state tutte eccellenti, senza pecca e presentate ad alto livello, il sapere é una reale emozione. Se vi trovate a Trani dovete obbligatoriamente fermarvi in questo ristorante, altrimenti avrete perso la possibilità di deliziare le vostre papille gustative! ECCELLENTE E CONSIGLIATISSIMO

23/05/2025: Ottimo primo piatto a base di mare con pasta fresca. Ottimo secondo di mare. Bellissima location, con vista porto di Trani e scorcio cattedrale Romania. Servizi igienici puliti. Personale professionale. Unica nota negativa: piatti "sbeccati" in più punti.

03/12/2025: I'm traveling for work. I stumbled upon this place by chance. I had a great time: the dinner was excellent and the location was beautiful. The staff was very welcoming. I definitely recommend it.

01/09/2025: Everything was excellent. The pizza was delicious and incredibly light, while the meat was flavorful and high-quality. The place is welcoming, with a friendly, family atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The staff is polite, friendly, and quick with their service, which really makes the difference! Plus, the value for money is incredible: generous portions, attention to detail, and more than affordable prices. Highly recommended!!!
