I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Puglia

01/07/2025: Today I went to lunch with 2 of my friends, we tasted an excellent appetizer and a good first course with typical local products. Michele and Rosmary were professional, courteous and quick in their service, they highly recommend it.

29/06/2025: That was a really, really good meal. The staff was friendly. The prices were very reasonable; we were very satisfied. Thank you for everything!

27/06/2025: Definitely a place to try! The owner has invested a lot in his business, which he runs with passion and love: it's not for everyone. Really excellent prices and quality. The highlight is the homemade bread, truly delicious. Draft beer and a complete menu, able to please everyone. Personally I recommend the fish dishes rather than the pizza... even the mixed salads are excellent. From the owner to the waiters, all extremely kind and friendly. I rarely give 5 stars, but this time they deserve it all. My children were also very happy. After dinner or lunch, a nice walk near the cove concludes an unforgettable moment in Monopoli

24/06/2025: Great food, fresh fish, generous portions. Great service and very friendly staff. We were there today for lunch. Great value for money. I highly recommend

25/06/2025: Food is ok but very busy and noisy environment. Only for tourists.

13/06/2025: Where history stopped, a real old trattoria

18/07/2025: Tasteless dishes, slow service, noisy setting... Nothing makes you want to come back. Huge disappointment. The price of €3.50 for a plate is ridiculous.

18/07/2025: Very slow and unfriendly service Tasteless, canteen-style meal Exorbitant cutlery cost of 3.5 euros The four of us ate at a staggered pace

08/06/2025: Great experience. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Food up to expectations. Prices more than acceptable!! I recommend 👍🏻

31/05/2025: Ci siamo andati in 4 adulti e un bimbo di 4 anni. Cibo da leccarsi i baffi, che non ho. Piacevolmente sorpresi dalla raffinatezza dei piatti. Personale gentile. Locale a volta, un classico per la Puglia. Se potessimo ritorneremmo volentieri

22/07/2025: Very romantic location, everything was delicious

22/07/2025: Breathtaking location, overlooking the marina... Fabulous by day and overwhelming in the evening. Large private parking. The owners are delightful and very kind. We booked our reception and they gave us the best advice. Super recommended.

15/07/2025: Beautiful place with a panoramic view...the food is very good.

14/07/2025: A place where tradition and creativity meet, all surrounded by a breathtaking panoramic view that makes the experience even more memorable. Tradition, heart, and flavor. The cuisine at Trattoria Mamma Mia is a tribute to the true Puglia: bold flavors, generous portions, and a quality that is evident from the first bite. Each dish is crafted with love and attention, a perfect balance between family recipes and touches of modern creativity. Recommended dishes? – The fish soup is rich, fragrant, and comforting. – The mixed platter is perfect to start, with select local cured meats and cheeses. – The tagliolini with truffles is an explosion of elegance. – The mixed roast meat will delight even the most discerning palates. – And for a sweet finish? The berry cheesecake, creamy and well-balanced. As a true food blogger, I recommend this place.

15/06/2025: Un fantastico gourmet per deliziare palati fini ed esigenti.Un esperienza fantastica e ricca di sapori unici e veramente deliziosi.Complimenti allo chef ma anche al personale gentile e cordiale allo stesso tempo. Prezzi superiori alla media ma vale la pena cmque.

04/06/2025: Amazing service, beautiful atmosphere and delicious food!!! Recommended by Viaje na Viagem! We loved it

01/07/2025: Unpleasant surprise, I sat at the table of this restaurant for lunch, I ordered a cut and a salad, a waiter comes to serve me and after 10 minutes exchanges a few words with me asking me where I came from, I tell him with great serenity that I was a waiter and that I worked at a restaurant a few meters from them, precisely the Altamarea restaurant. Even though I had said which restaurant it was, the same waiter started to speak badly of it, of the place of the food and of the owner and with great great ease. I asked him where he was from and instead he continued to speak badly of the restaurant where I work and in the presence of other customers at the tables. In the end I asked him who the owner was without letting him know that I would go to him to contest this behavior and the same waiter said that his owner is also not a good card because he is not from Giovinazzo... in the end I asked the same thing to a waitress who politely confirmed who the owner was, after which I got up from the table and went to the owner to pay the bill. Even after having told him everything I noticed a certain superficiality in solving the problem. But the thing I wonder is: where is all this professionalism that you show? Speaking badly of a colleague of yours nearby? You are from Giovinazzo and you feel you have the right to speak badly of others? Don't you notice that you are isolated from the world? That not even the smallest part of tourists come here because of your terrible culture? But why do you have to speak badly of others even if you don't know them? A waiter who speaks badly of others and even of his owner at the tables with such freedom and ease is unacceptable. I am convinced that if the father in a house speaks badly of others in the presence of his children, tomorrow his children will also do the same thing feeling entitled to do so and therefore in my opinion the owner of this structure is also a gossip and dishonest.

01/07/2025: Risotto ai ricci inedible (28€), it seemed to be made with cheese and non-existent sea urchins. Starters with low quality fish. Slow service… nothing like the previous times.

24/07/2025: I'll let the pictures do the talking. Very reasonable value for money. The food was excellent, the staff were excellent, and the waiter was extremely knowledgeable. Obviously, the brothers in the kitchen were no less knowledgeable. It was a truly wonderful experience. I hope to return soon, hoping they stay in this medium-high, yet still affordable, price range.

24/07/2025: A wonderful evening! A warm welcome, quality products, and well-prepared meals. A place not to be missed!

20/07/2025: An excellent restaurant that we found while searching online. Professional and attentive staff. Perfect! We recommend it without reservation!

16/07/2025: We had dinner there for the first time and everything was excellent. The staff was professional and extremely kind! The Pasta flambata, freshly prepared in front of me, was not only delicious but also beautiful to look at—a reason to return!

14/07/2025: We booked a night at the Hotel Gran Paradiso with half-board service, as described in the booking confirmation: "Half-board includes: • Three-course dinner (drinks not included) at our *Ristorante Vineria Sale e Pepe*" Our dinner experience at this restaurant was as follows. The food didn't live up to expectations based on the descriptions on the website and the menu prices. The half-board service was completely unclear (the booking generically indicated three courses); only when ordering dinner were we told we could order a first course, a second course, and a dessert per person. Furthermore, we were told that there was a supplement for the courses marked with an asterisk, but we weren't told how much. At the end of the meal, we ordered two digestives from the menu (at €5 each), and we needed two different ones because the ones on the menu weren't available! Given the infinitesimal quantity of digestives, we didn't order another. The next morning, upon checking out, we discovered the pleasant surprise of the bill. In particular, the €10 supplement for the two first courses (the price of the tonnarelli listed on the receipt reflects this supplement; just compare with the menu price). The even better surprise was the €12 charge for each of the three digestives (when the menu price was €5). What can I say!!!! A complete lack of clarity and information that undermines the professionalism of the service provided.

13/05/2025: Hospitality, kindness and refined dishes in an elegant and quiet environment. Recommended.

21/06/2025: Great to go! Super great food for a great price! Different from normal Osterias

21/06/2025: «Spectacular dinner, mouth-watering first courses with the obligatory mopping up of the bread. And to finish a delicious dessert, try the frisamisù and the semifreddo. Personal...»

09/07/2025: Rosamarina on the north side is a wonderful restaurant, indoor but very well-known. It also serves a pizzeria, with plenty of seating on the covered veranda, and free secure parking for the restaurant itself. Fresh produce, friendly, attentive, and fast staff. I recommend making a reservation or going early in the evening. Excellent first courses, but everything else is definitely worth it. Whether it's winter or summer, you won't be disappointed. Wide selection of wines and sparkling wines.

08/07/2025: The food is good, in a somewhat noisy but comfortable outdoor setting, and the service has considerable room for improvement, both in terms of attention to customer needs (including those dictated by personal health issues) and service times. The Taverna's success is evidenced by the large number of diners; we don't look at them hastily. Everything is done with kindness.

22/06/2025: Service with a smile? With a scowl more like. Pizzas were very good, Tiramisu was also good. But the waitress could do with trying a little harder... Rolling her eyes at customers, abrupt manners. Not a very good impression at all.

09/06/2025: Extremely slow service. It took them an hour to serve us 2 pizzas and a beer. Pizza was ok. Nothing special.
