I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Bari

18/10/2025: New management, amazing service, I had the diavola, and it was really really good.

11/10/2025: It's been under new management for some time now, with a renovated and very welcoming atmosphere. Varied appetizers and refined pizzas make this place a frequent destination. Francesco and his wife are always kind and welcoming. Always smiling. That's another reason why I give it a 5! P.S. The negative reviews all refer to the old management!

17/06/2025: This restaurant deserves the best in everything. The food is fabulous and the service is attentive. The customer is really happy here. The raw material is of exceptional quality, in particular the freshness of the fish is to be appreciated. If you want to eat well in Ruvo di Puglia, you don't even have to think about it, Filippo is always a guarantee.

07/09/2025: The pasta is incredible. Staff is so kind.

03/09/2025: Top-notch place, obviously we paid a bit, but you pay for quality. As they say in our parts, the more you waste, the more you eat. Highly recommended.

28/09/2025: We ate at the restaurant two evenings. The fish was very good, and the older waiter was very friendly and competent. The second evening was less good; we had to wait over an hour for a fish soup and a pizza. The waiter was partially apologetic. However, the behavior of this older lady – apparently the manager – who showed no sign of regret when asked was extremely unpleasant and completely unprofessional. The same was true of the behavior of the lady at the cashier, apparently the daughter of the house, who responded to my comment in an arrogant and not at all service-oriented manner. The only logical consequence: we ate at a different restaurant for the next three days. As a guest, you don't have to put up with such arrogance from the owners!!!

18/09/2025: The quality of the food is truly impressive, the fish is incredibly fresh, but what really makes the difference is the service. Mimmo is a true professional, thanks for the advice, and thanks to him, we'll be back.

22/10/2025: This is the 5th time I've been to this place, and today you can see the difference from the others: we booked 2 adults and 2 children, we arrived and the children's menu was not available, which was available the other times. We decided to do 3 adult menus for 4! Nothing could be more wrong, they always arrive portions for 2 adults to be divided between 4! Smart of them, hahahaha! P.S. grilled vegetables are unthinkable! TERRIBLE, WE WILL NEVER RETURN

17/10/2025: Everything is top notch, the meat is top notch, the owner is personal... There's no comparison to anything else, the good food is top quality.

19/10/2025: While on vacation in Puglia near Gioia del Colle, we found this pizzeria truly interesting. Numerous pizzas with a choice of dough, high-quality ingredients, starting with mozzarella or burrata, sourced directly from local dairies. Simple but attentive service. We enjoyed the platter filled with local specialties and pizzas. Very good value for money. I highly recommend it, especially for the wood-fired oven.

14/10/2025: We had dinner on Saturday evening, making a reservation for 8:45 PM (specifying a table inside) via the dedicated app. Unfortunately, despite this being our third dinner at this pizzeria, I can't give it more than 4 stars because, upon arrival, we waited until 9:20 PM for a table outside, in a gazebo covered with plastic sheets. It was freezing cold, and the stove was broken! The pizza and sandwich arrived at 10:22 PM. We nibbled a bit and left because we were two popsicles! No complaints about the quality of the pizza—excellent ingredients and a very light and tasty dough—but the wait, and especially the cold, ruined the evening! We didn't get to enjoy our dinner; in fact, we ate half a portion and took the rest away in a takeout box! Unfortunately, you can't sit in the cold for over an hour. I hope next time, if there is one, they'll pay more attention to their customers!

09/09/2025: Excellent value for money. Exceptional Fiorentina steak.

23/08/2025: We ate very well, the tartare was excellent, and the tagliata was of a quality I hadn't seen in years. Excellent.

07/11/2025: Exactly the place I was looking for, home-style, with quality products, tasty food, friendly staff. Thank you for the tasty lunch today.

02/11/2025: Good quality, good service. It's not cheap, but it's delicious.

06/11/2025: I dined at this restaurant two nights in a row. A wonderful discovery! The restaurant is beautiful and very welcoming. There's also a small covered and heated terrace. The staff is very professional and friendly. The food is superb! The fish and seafood are incredibly fresh. I tried the ceviche, the trio of tartare, the tuna steak, and the beef fillet (for meat lovers)—everything was perfect. They also have a good wine selection. If you're looking for a "real restaurant," this is an excellent choice. The prices are a bit higher than other restaurants in Bari, but it's entirely justified. They really go the extra mile! 😉 Thank you to the whole team; I had two wonderful evenings in your company.

04/11/2025: The soup for two for €60 looked like this (see photo). There was very little fish, and the tail in the photo was raw. To be fair, they replaced it, but the bruschetta was burnt.

19/07/2025: We had pizza and everyone really liked it. The service is very kind and attentive. The prices are also reasonable. 🙂

18/07/2025: Phenomenal pizza and superb spaghetti all'assassina Friendly and welcoming staff :) Also try the beef tagliata: excellent!

15/10/2025: The waiter brought us a coffee with normal milk when we specified soya. We are both extremely lactose intolerant. When we asked for a new coffee and sent it back they refused to remove it from the bill and said it wasn’t their fault. Terrible service.

14/10/2025: No toilet seat or toilet paper in the ladies or gents toilets. No toilet seat unfortunately seems standard in most of restaurants in Puglia

21/10/2025: Found by chance, just a few minutes' drive from the center of Polignano. The veranda offers a spectacular view of the small beach and the Abbey of San Vito. Excellent lunch featuring the freshest seafood, all sourced locally. Quick, friendly, and efficient service. Very fair prices. Kudos to the entire staff.

15/10/2025: Great spot on a quiet beach. The food is delicious and very reasonably priced, fresh and full of flavor. Friendly service. Highly recommended if you want to escape the bustle of the towns but still enjoy a delicious meal by the sea!

23/10/2025: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A real favorite is L’Aréna del Gusto! Everything is excellent: hearty, tasty, and generous dishes, served with a smile and great kindness by the entire staff. ❤️ If you're passing through Monopoli, don't hesitate for a second: go eat there once... or several times! You'll never be disappointed. A place to recommend without hesitation! 🍝🍷

14/10/2025: The pizza was really tasty and the prices weren't expensive.

15/10/2025: The delicious octopus sandwich is a real novelty. Congratulations!

15/10/2025: very terrible service there were free seats in the establishment but visitors were waiting on the street because they were places for a large company and couldn't they seat people stupid some idiotic rules
