I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Bari

21/03/2026: A lovely, welcoming place in the center of Bitonto, behind the beautiful Romanesque cathedral. It's a restaurant and pizzeria, and the staff is friendly and helpful. They're very attentive to their guests' requests. We were there for a group dinner with a pre-arranged menu; they took into account any allergies and special needs. The owner of the restaurant personally made sure everything was running smoothly and explained the dishes we'd be trying. He also gave us a lesson in extra virgin olive oil tasting. On the table were four different varieties of Moncultivar olive oil (Leccino, Coratina, Peranzana, and Piccholine) from Apulian producers. We paired the various oils with bread, an appetizer, a first course, and a second course. The bread was homemade. They also brought a focaccia. The appetizer included a meat tartar, a lactose-free tart, and a beef carpaccio. Then came a risotto with artichokes, crusco peppers, and caciocavallo cheese. Then came a suckling pig topped with a delicious cream. And for dessert, a warm chocolate cake with almond crème brulee. They chose the wine, but it was good. The place filled up quickly. The name of the place is inspired by the "patriarca," a name given to the centuries-old olive trees found in Puglia.

01/02/2026: I often return when I'm passing through. I'm guaranteed an excellent lunch in a nice, welcoming place. I recommend it.

12/06/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ On a beautiful sunny morning in Altamura, we stopped at this historic bakery for brunch, and the experience was truly excellent. We had the opportunity to sample several traditional local specialties: from fragrant friselle drizzled with excellent olive oil, to authentic Altamura bread, to pizza and focaccia from Bari, all prepared with quality ingredients and with that authenticity that is evident from the first bite. The variety of products is remarkable, and every bite confirms the care and experience of those who work at this bakery every day. Another particularly appreciated aspect is the quality-price ratio, which is decidedly reasonable considering the excellence of the offerings. The staff was courteous, helpful, and quick in their service, helping to make our visit even more enjoyable. The option of sitting at the outdoor tables and enjoying these specialties in complete relaxation was also very pleasant. A stop absolutely worth a visit for anyone wishing to discover the authentic flavors of Altamura and Puglia's culinary traditions. Highly recommended.

12/06/2026: The octopus sandwich was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful. It's a great place for a lunch break, as there's a place to sit and a clean bathroom.

11/06/2026: Stunning room, excellent food, impeccable service, I recommend it

02/06/2026: We celebrated the first communion of our greatest treasure here. Everything was impeccable, from the quality food to the engaging entertainment, to the extraordinary table service (they even placed my napkin on my lap!). Attention to the smallest details is what makes the difference and makes the day unique. The location is the icing on the cake, surrounded by greenery with beautiful corners everywhere, inside and out. I should also point out that one of our guests lost a ring and it was found and returned (we never found anything in the other rooms!) Thank you for the excellent work you did!

19/04/2026: Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this place due to the absolutely exorbitant prices. I'm sorry, but paying €20 for a seafood risotto is outrageous!

18/04/2026: Simply a guarantee. The location, cuisine, and staff are top notch.

15/05/2026: Excellent tradition, everything too good!

28/04/2026: Excellent pizza, friendly staff, excellent service... recommended...♥️♥️

10/06/2026: We received very delicious food, very quickly.

03/06/2026: If you want to eat fresh fish in a historic place, this is the right place.

24/12/2025: I'm shocked, disappointed, and very, very bitter... two proseccos (no particular brand), a plate of raw fish (an oyster, a shrimp, and two scampi), plus two other small plates of various things (cold, by the way, including some fried food)... Basically, everything to share, nothing calculated for two! Total €70... basically two aperitifs for €35 per person, the cost of a dinner in a pinch... I understand it's Christmas Eve, but increasing the price like this is truly illegal... half an hour to be so bled... I don't think I'll be back, not even for a coffee, because I felt truly cheated, never mind Christmas wishes... What a disappointment...

16/11/2025: I go to this bar exclusively for the products which are of good quality especially the really good croissants, but unfortunately I have to give one star because it is not the first time it happens, I am referring to the waitress Alina who served me the croissants and then made me pay, a piece of advice, education and empathy are the basis of this job, I enter saying hello and I barely get a response, a desire to work equal to 0, and after having paid even worse, if you do not want to be in contact with people, you are asked to change jobs, because the image of the place depends on it, which I repeat is TRULY EXCELLENT

15/05/2026: A place I highly recommend for everything. The owner is friendly and very helpful. I always visit this corner of paradise whenever I can. Poggiorsini, despite its small size, offers many natural recreation opportunities, in addition to being a beautiful village. Kudos also go to the municipal administration, which has successfully revitalized the area.

15/04/2026: A very charming little restaurant, located in a small village square with a wonderful view. We stumbled upon it by chance on Easter Monday, looking for a last-minute lunch option, and we couldn't have been luckier. Excellent traditional dishes and many very friendly young waiters. We'll be back.

03/06/2026: A classic old-school trattoria, where you know what to expect before you even sit down. The atmosphere is informal, with friendly and helpful staff. The cuisine features traditional flavors, bringing back memories of grandma's cooking. Prices are a bit high for what's on offer.

18/05/2026: Terrible experience at this retro place, even the lighting is lacking. Terrible dishes, especially the breasts, which were not very clean. For my second course, I ordered fried calamari with a side of potatoes, and not only was it awful, but to make it seem too large, they served everything at once.

08/05/2026: We went there as part of a tasting included in a guided tour. It was okay, but nothing special...

22/04/2026: A bit of confusion, maybe because it was Sunday

26/04/2026: Four beers without even glasses at a table for six. They don't even want to take out the umbrellas. Unspeakable staff.

26/04/2026: Top pizza, fried food and first courses

13/09/2025: Everything was very good and the staff were very kind and helpful.

07/09/2025: Worst sandwich I've ever eaten, and incredibly expensive! Free Pac-Man at the door is brilliant!

14/06/2026: Everything was excellent, we had a great time. The owner was fantastic, the staff was kind and professional. We felt at ease. Highly recommended.

30/05/2026: Excellent restaurant in the historic center of Minervino Murge (BT). Authentic food, artisanal quality, excellent service.

06/04/2026: In a setting somewhere between rustic and modern, the welcome was warm and welcoming. We were served homemade focaccia and freshly sliced ​​mortadella, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The pizzas were all excellent, from the dough to the fresh, quality ingredients. Overall, we were satisfied, and for the service, prices, and food, I'd give it a solid 8.

28/03/2026: Everything is delicious, spectacular chef

17/02/2026: Excellent products, professional service and friendly staff

13/12/2025: Spacious and welcoming place. Excellent cuisine.
