I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Puglia

11/11/2025: Typical dinner in a welcoming and professional restaurant

29/10/2025: What can I say? It's truly an excellent place! Inside, you eat in a very characteristic cave carved out of the tuff. Excellent food, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. I came here encouraged by the reviews, and it exceeded my expectations! Well done!!!

30/11/2025: You can have a divine lunch or dinner, with traditional Salento dishes that are hard to find. Very, very good.

09/09/2025: Very pleasant place. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

16/11/2025: Excellent food, very attentive service I recommend it

27/10/2025: Kind and friendly staff, excellent food, and a well-kept venue! I recommend it.

07/12/2025: I returned to this fantastic place and, once again, I was thrilled. The fish is incredibly fresh, especially the raw fish, impeccably presented, and of a quality hard to find elsewhere. Each dish truly showcases the flavor of the sea. A special thanks to Giovanni, whose professionalism and kindness make the experience even more enjoyable. The service is impeccable: attentive, fast, and always with a smile. A place definitely worth trying, and I can't wait to return! Highly recommended.

07/12/2025: My husband and I had dinner on December 6th at Al bel paese: what can I say? A very professional welcome, knowledgeable and attentive staff. The wine cellar is extensive and original, and chef Vito (the restaurant's owner) created wonderful dishes, both for the palate and the eye. We'll definitely be back!!

13/12/2025: Excellent food! So many appetizers that we barely finished the pizza! Limoncello and ice cream at the end! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

12/12/2025: We ended up here by accident, and the place turned out to be a total hit 🫶 The service was friendly and very nice 👍 the food was delicious 👌 I recommend it, we will definitely come back ✌️

18/10/2025: I booked with The Fork a full 8 days in advance, arrived right on time after traveling 25 km, but was told they had to cancel the reservation because the restaurant was full and that if I wanted I could wait for a table to become available!!! Nothing like this has ever happened in all these years! "Didn't you see the email?".... I checked and in fact they had even had the forethought to notify me AT 8:14 PM, when I was already on my way. Shamelessly mocking a customer in this way (did you assign my table to some "friend"? And why did you only realize the restaurant was full 45 minutes before the reservation and not in the last 8 days?) just because you don't have the skills to properly manage a public place, not feeling the slightest need to apologize for the mix-up or try to fix it in any way, and being rude to potential customers who will obviously give bad reviews and speak even worse of your poor management is definitely not a good calling card. But that's okay, there's no need to be considerate of those who were so eager to spend a couple of hours at your place in peace with friends, convinced they'd eat well and trusting the many positive reviews of those who weren't unfortunate enough to find it "full" despite having made a reservation ages ago.

20/08/2025: A well-designed place where everything is top-notch and the staff is very friendly! The service is excellent and fast, and its location is very strategic, right in the town square and center! Five stars might seem like an understatement! Highly recommended!

14/11/2025: Extraordinary at totally affordable prices.

10/11/2025: I was invited to an 18th birthday party, and we loved everything! In fact, I gave 5 stars for everything, but 4 stars conservatively because I don't know the prices and, therefore, the quality-to-price ratio... Otherwise, I highly recommend it. I particularly recommend the crudo dish, with shrimp, oysters, and other bivalves—spectacular even for those who aren't used to raw seafood.

13/12/2025: Everything was perfect! We celebrated my son's birthday here with a cookie-making workshop organized, coordinated, and supervised by the wonderful Paola. My son and his friends had a blast, and we parents had a great time too!

05/12/2025: I discovered this beautiful café during a cookie-making workshop organized for children... as soon as I walked in, I immediately felt the welcome and kindness, and while we were kneading cookie dough with the kids, it felt like we were doing it at home... the atmosphere is relaxing, and despite the children, there was no rush to get things done, but dedication, calm, and the kids had a great time... and us moms too... I'll definitely be back to try their lunch, breakfast, and afternoon snacks... it's a shame I only discovered it now... but it's never too late! Thank you, Paola and her staff! Ad maiora!

12/11/2025: The Most Important Day of Our Lives We chose this reception hall for the most important day of our lives... and we couldn't have asked for anything better! The location is simply stunning: elegant, welcoming, and perfect for creating a magical atmosphere. The spaces, both indoor and outdoor, are meticulously designed down to the smallest detail and left all our guests speechless. Special thanks go to all the staff, who were professional, kind, and always available. They accompanied us with discretion and attention throughout the day, allowing us to experience every moment with serenity. The food was exceptional: from the appetizers to the dessert buffet, every course was an explosion of flavor. All our guests complimented us! A heartfelt thanks also to Paolo (the director) and the fantastic Mimì, who guided us step by step in the preparation of the event with passion, availability, and so much patience. We recommend this hall to anyone seeking a refined, elegant, and unforgettable wedding.

09/11/2025: For me, Villa Ciccorosella is a special place. It was love at first sight, even from the photos, and instantaneous emotion as soon as I visited in person. A 19th-century residence in a vast olive grove: as an Apulian immigrant, I immediately felt at home. Besides the beauty of the location, a special mention goes to the kindness and professionalism of the entire staff, especially Paolo, Mimì, and Marilyn. Last but not least, the delicious food. We couldn't have chosen a better location.

01/11/2025: Great place, delicious pizza, exceptional service and location. Very affordable prices.

26/10/2025: Delicious pizza, rich in ingredients :) tables in beautiful surroundings

14/10/2025: An excellent experience in every way! The food was simply delicious—every dish was prepared with care, flavor, and high-quality ingredients. Truly gourmet cuisine that captivates you from the first bite. The service was impeccable, professional, yet very human and friendly. We felt warmly welcomed and cared for. The value for money was also more than fair, considering the quality of the offerings. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking an authentic, refined, and satisfying culinary experience. We'll definitely be back!

29/09/2025: This was my second visit to this restaurant and I was completely satisfied. Excellent food, beautiful to look at and delicious to eat, professional staff, everything was perfect. My compliments to the chef, and what can I say? I'll be back again.

12/10/2025: Everything was delicious, with new but above all authentic flavors. Highly recommended. The new dishes were all delicious. We had the chickpea cream soup with Ionian delights, linguine with Ionian delights, grilled swordfish, and homemade desserts. Fantastic, and we'll definitely be back. Wonderful, attentive service.

01/10/2025: We were here for lunch on a tour. Food was good, but the prawns were excellent!

06/11/2025: We came here because it was recommended in the Lonely Planet guide, but when we arrived it was closed – even though Google clearly shows it as open. Please update your opening hours so we don't make a wasted trip, thank you 🙏 Update: The opening hours aren't updated in real time, it's true, but they are updated quickly if you request it, probably within 24 hours. It would be even faster to do this than to reply to comments :)

31/10/2025: Delicious! The products are amazing.

15/11/2025: In a medieval atmosphere, you can enjoy good-quality dishes, with fast service and the discreet, professional presence of the staff. Excellent value for money. Definitely worth returning.

17/10/2025: Cozy place, great food, and excellent service. Really nice.

05/12/2025: Excellent pizza and excellent first courses. The place is pleasant and the service impeccable. Prices are in line with the quality of the products.

01/12/2025: I can say that this was one of the best dinners we've had in Italy so far. Thank you for everything.
