I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Brindisi

03/05/2026: I had a good time, I recommend it.

29/04/2026: Excellent family restaurant, professional staff, fresh produce and seafood, exquisite desserts, incredible dishes (special mention for the pasta with mussels), everything is tasty and delicious. We went back three times in one week and would have loved to go back again and again. Parking right in front.

09/04/2026: A lunch that left a bad taste in our mouths... The waiter ripped us off by €8 on one of the two pizzas. We checked the website later that evening, and the Buffalo pizza was charged at €18... instead of €10! Outrageous! Check your bill carefully before paying.

07/04/2026: Had a divine lunch today, recommended

04/01/2026: Very good food, large portions, very friendly service, I honestly recommend it 😊

04/01/2026: A truly wonderful restaurant — perfect for a morning espresso and breakfast, a relaxed drink, or enjoying the fabulous fresh food. I followed the attentive staff’s recommendations several times and was rewarded each time with a fantastic culinary experience. We will definitely be back.

15/03/2026: Last night I went to eat at the Zahir restaurant and there are no words, the waitress was excellent and very kind, the food was very abundant and super excellent, everything was delicious. PS Ladies and gentlemen, I highly recommend it, compliments to the waitress and to everyone. PS I really recommend it.

08/03/2026: My favorite place!!! And there's no need to say anything else. Kindness, friendliness, fair prices, and authentic, DELICIOUS food.

27/03/2026: Great place for all sorts of wonderful food!

22/03/2026: Stunning location, elegant, friendly, and welcoming staff, excellent food, both meat and fish. I recommend everyone to go and try their specialties.

20/04/2026: Just got ripped off by these people! Would never ever go there again

12/04/2026: We had lunch on Easter Monday. Everything was excellent, especially the cacio e pepe...

01/04/2026: A delightful culinary experience where simplicity meets excellence. The quality-price ratio is excellent, considering the high-quality ingredients. Don't expect pre-packaged dishes. Here, everything is freshly prepared!

19/01/2026: The atmosphere is very, very nice and well-kept. The food is excellent! I'll be happy to return! The person who served us (I think it was the owner) was very good and friendly.

02/03/2026: A place where the tradition of home-cooked food is combined with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I've been there for both dinner and lunch, and the various culinary offerings are excellent. The pizzas with cereal dough are excellent. The Sunday menu at 28 euros per person is recommended for a quiet and succulent Sunday, as the menu includes no fewer than 10 appetizers, 1 first course, 1 second course, and a side dish with drinks. A welcoming place to visit. ❤️

03/01/2026: Rustic and welcoming restaurant. Mr. Giuseppe is helpful and professional. We ate very well and were served equally well. Excellent ingredients, cooked traditionally. We chose the house menu for €28, which included appetizers, a first course, and a second course each. Drinks included, including liqueur and coffee. It's been a long time since I've had such a high-quality experience at a restaurant! I'll definitely be back!

02/05/2026: I don't know the price because I was invited, but the quality is excellent

27/04/2026: Excellent pizzas and impeccable service. Very affordable prices.

12/02/2026: Perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

22/01/2026: No fuss, just great cuisine There are places you don't discover by chance, but they stay with you like a memory of a successful trip. Andrea's Vecchio Frantoio is one of those places where time slows down, your phone ceases to matter, and the food speaks much better than anyone else. If you want to eat truly well, then you have to go to Andrea (for locals), to Vecchio Frantoio for everyone else. Period. Andrea is gruff, fussy, precise: he notices everything. Really everything. But it's precisely thanks to these "adorable" quirks that he cooks divinely. Products that don't pass muster are sent back to the sender without appeal, trial, or the possibility of a plea bargain. Quality first, friendliness... perhaps second. The restaurant is typical of the area: entering is like stepping back several centuries. Here you won't find Nordic design or Instagram-worthy lighting, but a real olive oil mill transformed into a restaurant, where the only modern aspect is the satisfaction you leave with at the end of the meal. At lunchtime, it's mostly frequented by locals (who know where the food is served) and by passing salesmen who, upon entering, wonder why they didn't arrive earlier. It's hard to say which dish is the best, especially since we've never managed to get a wrong order. My wife and I love the house pizza, but between fried fish, first courses, and second courses, we tried hard to find something to criticize. Mission failed. To say we didn't like anything would be a complete lie. We've brought friends to this place, and years later, they still talk about it as one of the absolute highlights of their vacations. Some remember the sea, others... Andrea's cooking. If we added an extra smile to all this, then yes, we could easily call it a Michelin star. But maybe not: that half-smile less is an integral part of the experience, like the service charge or the warm bread. "Andrea and family" are like that, and it would probably be a disaster if they weren't. You don't come here for the sweet talk, the clichés, or the "How are you, everything okay?" repeated every three minutes. You come here for the culinary art, to feel welcomed in its own way, and to leave with your taste buds in awe and a smile (ours) plastered on your face. A round of applause also goes to those who are at the forefront today, the owner: her daughter Valentina and her husband Angelo. On several occasions, I even managed to get a smile out of them. In those moments, I felt like a scientist winning the Nobel Prize in the most complex discipline ever: "the eradication of smiles in a hostile environment." And yes, I did win that Nobel. In conclusion, I can only say one thing: coming to Vecchio Frantoio is an experience, and we always love returning. Even without a Michelin star. Here... the star is already there.

16/06/2025: Very friendly service. And it's fast, too.

14/04/2025: The best pizza in the world without any doubt! Very friendly staff!
