I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Puglia

23/11/2025: Simply top-notch pizza... A delight for the eyes and the palate.

17/11/2025: Delicious pizza. Everything was excellent, including the very fast and friendly service. Perhaps the place is old, so there are a lot of steps between the rooms. Otherwise, everything was excellent!

22/01/2026: Perfect, the food is divine, the staff is very professional.

08/01/2026: We had a wonderful evening eating quality seafood. Excellent service with super-efficient waiters.

02/01/2026: Nothing to say, of course ❗ Excellent food to savor in a beautiful setting. The prices, personally considering it's a Michelin guide and not a Michelin STAR, are high...

08/12/2025: Zero defects… maybe the price is a little… but if you want a Ferrari…

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.

12/01/2026: One of the best pizzas I've ever eaten, and among pizzerias by the slice, it's the best!!! The flavors are different every time, although the Margherita remains my favorite. Luigi, the pizza chef, is truly EXCEPTIONAL!!!!!!!!

09/01/2026: Spectacular pizzas, a wide selection including gourmet options. Warm welcome and exceptionally friendly service, atmospheric location with a stunning view. Highly recommended!

24/12/2025: Nice and welcoming place. The service was also good. The fish was fresh and smelled of the sea... but the first and second courses didn't satisfy me... definitely worth seeing again.

31/10/2025: The restaurant is very welcoming, as is the staff. Excellent meal, with every course, and plenty of pampering to boot. High-quality ingredients, balanced and beautifully presented dishes, and a mouth-watering house dessert. We'll definitely be back. Being allowed to bring our dog was much appreciated.

02/02/2026: Very high quality, congratulations.

07/01/2026: Aside from the price (€80 per person), the negative thing that most influenced this review was the waiter's response to the request for a discount. He said, "The discount at the supermarket." There are many ways to respond, and in a crowded place, a loud response like that wouldn't even be given in a dive... the food was good, but for that price, I'd prefer something else. P.S. After the review, I was contacted by the owner who made some strange allusions to our status. I hope he doesn't do that to everyone who goes and has a bad experience... I'm reposting the previously flagged and obscured review.

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.

06/01/2026: We went with a group of 26 friends to lunch at this delightful little restaurant in the heart of Otranto on January 3, 2026. We were welcomed by Mrs. Doriana with warmth and kindness. The food and price were excellent. I highly recommend it.

03/01/2026: We wandered in by chance on a (very cold) December 31st, and without a reservation, they welcomed us and served us an excellent seafood dinner for New Year's Eve! Excellent value for money, attentive and unobtrusive service (despite the restaurant obviously being full).

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!

21/01/2026: Great and helpful service. Interesting culinary suggestions. Tasty, truly tasty.

14/01/2026: Everything I've eaten so far has been delicious. Nice atmosphere, nice staff, and they get a lot of ingredients directly from the producer, if I understand correctly. Fast service.

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.

30/12/2025: Excellent dishes, sensational products, service and hospitality to remember.

23/12/2025: Great experience. I recommend it to everyone. We'll be back again ✌️

13/01/2026: Great service and quality lunch

28/10/2025: *An unforgettable evening at Locanda del Maniscalco!* The food was the true star of the evening: authentic dishes, intense flavors, and impeccable presentation. The desserts, made directly by the inn, were exquisite and a fitting end to an excellent dinner. The staff was extremely kind and professional, from the telephone reservation to the welcome at the table. The waiters listed the dishes with passion and expertise, making the choice even more enjoyable. The location is unique and charming, located in the heart of Mattinata's historic center. The covered terrace, enclosed by glass windows, made for a warm and welcoming evening, despite the weather outside being less than ideal. Special highlights: the local scaldatelli, the delicious olives, the chilled sparkling water, and the impeccable presentation of the dishes. A place I highly recommend and will definitely return to. It's always a pleasure to find places like this, where the quality of the food and hospitality come together to create an unforgettable experience. *Compliments to Locanda del Farrier for the excellent service and high-quality cuisine!*"

05/01/2026: Disappointing food, New Year's Eve dinner costing €60 per person, I don't understand how the restaurant has such high reviews, they're fake

10/12/2025: I had lunch with my family on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. It was a pleasant discovery: excellent food, impeccable service, and a very small and intimate location worth revisiting. Recommended.
