I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Bari

20/05/2026: Finally, the first good restaurant I found in the region. There are so many restaurants but many are very touristic and food is mediocre. The food here was delicious and tasted fresh and flavorful. Service was warm. A place I would come back to if I lived in the area. It can become a long meal if you order many courses as it’s run by a small team. We had nowhere else to be though and enjoyed the experience. Try to make a reservation to avoid disappointment! Or come early at opening and hope for a last minute table.

18/05/2026: The lady who welcomed us was very kind and welcoming. The octopus with zucchini alla poverella was truly delicious. 🔝 Excellent experience.

07/05/2026: A meticulously maintained, family-run restaurant with excellent cuisine, from preparation to presentation, and an excellent wine list. The owner's friendliness and warmth, the vintage-style ambiance, and the authenticity and exquisiteness of the dishes will immerse you in a truly relaxing, timeless atmosphere. Highly recommended!!

07/05/2026: The best restaurant in Castellana! Welcoming staff and location, refined cuisine with traditional ingredients. I often go to Castellana and never miss a Cesarino!

14/04/2026: For dinner, we thoroughly enjoyed the surprise menu, which offered sublime value for money. The dishes were very refined, featuring delicate regional flavors.

09/05/2026: Delicious food, super friendly waiters. Highly recommend!

03/05/2026: Quality, flavor, and hospitality—among the hallmarks of the "Al Bel Paese" restaurant, combined with Chef Vito's creativity and the fresh catch of the day from Mola di Bari—made for a pleasant and engaging culinary experience. Excellent service from friendly and professional staff. The price was fair. We'll be back with pleasure and curiosity.

02/05/2026: Quality products, the chef demonstrates the passion he puts into his work. Attentive service, good raw seafood, shame about the sea bream carpaccio... the orange completely covered the flavor of the fish. Homemade tagliolini were good, but the flavor of the scorpion fish was missing from the sauce... the cherry tomato prevailed. We will definitely be back to try other options that perhaps will convince us more.

18/05/2026: I was in this villa for a communion and what can I say, an enchanting fairytale structure, surrounded by a stunning garden, the green of the lawn and the stone of the paths a perfect combination.

04/05/2026: We chose Villa Ciccorosella to celebrate our son's first communion, and we couldn't have made a better choice. Everything was simply wonderful! The location is stunning, with meticulous attention to detail and a refined yet welcoming atmosphere. The spaces are spacious, well-organized, and perfect for special events like ours. The real highlight, however, was the menu: truly spectacular! Delicious dishes, carefully presented, and prepared with quality ingredients. All our guests raved about both the flavor and the variety of dishes. A special thank you also goes to the staff, always available, professional, and attentive to every need. They helped make this day even more special and hassle-free. We highly recommend Villa Ciccorosella to anyone looking for an unforgettable event!

10/05/2026: Something special. Unique. Simple and delicious. I absolutely detest modern Michelin style restaurants. I love small restaurants that serve local food. This for me was a perfect experience. Fresh and colourful with lots of vegetables.

29/04/2026: When you walk to a place which doesn't announce much but you find a great treasure ! We were visiting during the "nap - quiet" noon hour, we stumble upon this place and were delighted by the food and service. The waitress was a great guide to suggest menus and they were delicious. It's funny to eat at a "recommended Michelin" days before and find the food was "mehhhh" and come to this place and think that IT should get the recommendation ! I liked the layout of the restaurant were you have small areas on the first level and you get lower to a bigger "cave" were they have more tables; like I mentioned: it's like a treasure hunt ! We were off tourist season since we were there in mid April so we walked right in and I don't know how it is during summer. They also have tables outside.

05/05/2026: Small place with just an outdoor terrace. You can enjoy various drinks and eat some cold cuts and cheeses with bread. So, it's a nice place to have a drink and a snack while gazing at the tourists walking by.

28/04/2026: A very warm welcome and generous, varied, and delicious charcuterie and cheese platters! Top-notch! 👌🏻

09/04/2026: A good aperitif and appetizer to start the day. Both the appetizers and the main course were excellent. Wine by the glass was also good – local Chardonay and Primitivo. The meat and seafood were fresh and well-prepared. And most importantly, it's one of the few restaurants where you can still order something at 3:30 PM: we went through two of the selected ones that were already on their break until 7 PM.... I'll definitely be back because it's worth it.

09/04/2026: Excellent place! Menus in several languages, even French, which is great! Very warm welcome and service, a complimentary drink, and a wide selection of high-quality fish, pasta, and meat. The fish of the day is presented to you before cooking. Superb setting, quiet terrace. A wonderful experience! Thank you!

28/02/2026: Perfect Italian restaurant. Best class. Recommend with two hands. Pleasant atmosphere and delicious dishes.

25/02/2026: Incredible!! I highly recommend this place, we've been there several times and have never been disappointed.

23/05/2026: Excellent food and service. Cinque stelle.

22/05/2026: We were with friends and everything was really excellent from the pizza to the first course with chops and the fantastic tiramisu, we will definitely be returning

10/03/2026: A unique and refined restaurant. Very friendly staff.

01/03/2026: Truly a culinary journey of taste and flavor, all our requests were accommodated with kindness and patience, and the owner and all the staff were truly kind and welcoming. I wholeheartedly recommend Dorotea for anyone seeking elegance and taste.
