I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Lecce

03/06/2026: A very friendly welcome, excellent pizzas, very good food and generous portions for a very reasonable price. A small family restaurant that truly deserves to be known.

08/02/2026: Pizzeria right off Piazza Santo Oronzo, in true Neapolitan style and flavor. A very beautiful and characteristic place with both indoor and outdoor seating. Very friendly staff, attentive to every need. The pizzas are excellent, and the service is quick. The only flaw, in my opinion, is the price of a portion of fittini, €10.50, which seems excessive. The homemade ones are okay, but they consisted of 10 pieces at most (panzerotti, arancini-style meatballs, and pasta frittatas). Pizza prices are normal.

29/01/2026: A very nice place practically in Piazza Sant'Oronzo. The pizzas and desserts are very good, although one pizza was a bit burnt (it can happen). The service is friendly and attentive. Prices are a bit high, but we're right in the center.

01/03/2026: Excellent products, exquisite meat, very kind staff and owners.

04/02/2026: Very nice and unique place, excellent dog, the ribs are a spectacle, courteous and attentive service, the bathrooms are also worth seeing

16/02/2026: My experience did not meet my expectations. I believe the level of professionalism demonstrated was insufficient, especially regarding punctuality and customer service. The manager, who serves as director, did not demonstrate the attention and competence I would have expected from someone in that position.

25/01/2026: Today I had the pleasure of having lunch at the Hotel Ristorante Posidonia with some friends, guests of the kind owner, Chiara. It was a truly pleasant experience! The restaurant stands out for its welcoming and refined atmosphere, perfect for relaxing with friends. The freshness of the raw fish was exceptional: the quality and care taken in selecting the ingredients were clearly evident, making lunch a true pleasure for the palate. The dishes are prepared with care and passion. Each course had an authentic and rich flavor, a testament to the freshness and mastery of the Chef. The service was excellent, attentive and friendly, and the attention to detail made lunch even more enjoyable. I highly recommend the Posidonia restaurant to anyone looking for a quality dining experience in a peaceful and welcoming environment. We will definitely be back soon!

04/07/2026: The food was outstanding—beautifully prepared, exceptionally fresh, and of the highest quality. Every dish reflected the care and passion that goes into the kitchen. What truly made the experience unforgettable was the attentiveness of the staff. The service was warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we arrived. A special thank you to Antonio, who is the epitome of an Italian gentleman. His professionalism, style, and effortless elegance are remarkable. He has a wonderful, discreet smile that immediately puts guests at ease, and watching him serve and pour wine is like watching a true expert at work. His attention to detail and gracious manner elevated the entire dining experience. We would also like to thank the lovely lady who looked after our table. Her warmth and kindness made us feel completely at home, and her welcoming nature was just as memorable as the excellent food. Alex Restaurant offers not only exceptional seafood but also hospitality of the highest standard. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable dining experience.

02/07/2026: Excellent restaurant! Everyone is professional and knowledgeable! Excellent and refined dishes.

09/02/2026: I stumbled upon it by chance after two years of frequenting the area. It was a great discovery. From the simplest dishes to the most delicious, like the excellent sweet and sour suckling pig, wisely recommended by the very kind lady. I'll definitely be back and recommend it.

03/02/2026: Fantastic food. Every day there's always something fresh and delicious.

01/07/2026: Right on the Otranto seafront. This alone is worth stopping here. Excellent pizzas.

01/07/2026: Lovely place, excellent food, I recommend the ravioli filled with prawns and courgettes (very good and plentiful)

06/12/2025: The atmosphere is welcoming and typically Salento. A large, warm fireplace was much appreciated. We were there for a birthday dinner. Everyone ordered different dishes, but everyone was satisfied. Definitely a recommended place, and I plan to return.

14/10/2025: We were guests at this restaurant to celebrate a birthday and ate typical Salento dishes, each dish expertly prepared with top-quality ingredients. Everything was delicious and tasty. Highly recommended!

22/03/2026: WOW! The food is wonderful 🤩 Everything is delicious. The only flaw is in one of the off-menu dishes, the spaghetti with lobster. The lobster is very chewy, but otherwise it's a spectacle. Trust me and go there.

09/03/2026: The food is excellent; it's simple, traditional cuisine, with a seasonal menu that respects the ingredients. The seafood linguine is excellent. The restaurant is located in Acaya, a small village in the province of Lecce, a short walk from the castle. There's a lovely fireplace. The service is friendly. 100% recommended.

26/06/2026: Had a delicious meal at this hidden gem! The tasty local dishes are prepared and served by father, mother, and daughter in their own atmospheric and cozy backyard!

19/06/2026: A delightful location: an ancient house with a small courtyard overlooking the village square. Traditional Salento dishes are prepared with skill and passion. Oliviero, the host, innkeeper, and poet, welcomes you with warmth and simplicity; his delightful daughters will serve you promptly and cordially; his wife, Mirella, assisted in the kitchen by Antonietta, prepares flavorful dishes that will be served in generous portions. Tip: Stop by Acaya and the trattoria and, after enjoying a delicious dinner, enjoy the peaceful village with its splendid view of the castle and the narrow streets.

14/07/2026: My partner and I discovered this place thanks to a gift box we received. Nothing to complain about, everything was perfect: the staff were super friendly, the location very intimate, perfect for a quiet dinner, and the service was very fast and always attentive. As for the food, nothing to complain about: the fish was fresh, with a fine flavor, perfectly cooked, and the fried food was light, everything delicious. We also took advantage of a bottle of water outside of our package, which was given to us free at the end of the dinner. I highly recommend going if you want to eat well and have a wonderful experience.

03/06/2026: The three of us went out for dinner and it was really lovely! It wasn't very busy, so we were served right away. We had pizza and pasta with seafood, and we thought everything was absolutely delicious, especially considering the very fair price. We'd gladly go again.

17/05/2026: Pleasant evening, welcoming and familiar atmosphere

10/05/2026: Inedible pizza, very high prices and very poor cleanliness.

20/07/2026: Rude staff. After consuming the ice cream, some of them were biased about us not cleaning it up, telling a third party, "They have to clean it up," and even looking annoyed. Never again. Furthermore, the accumulated dirt was due to the fact that the ice cream was warm, and we didn't provide anything to prevent it.

18/07/2026: When we're in the area, we like to go there for breakfast; the crostata is very, very delicious.

12/06/2026: Fantastic place, truly perfect location. The staff is professional and attentive, without ever being intrusive. Everything was delicious, and the raw seafood was truly amazing, with purple shrimp and generously sized scampi. The price was fair for the quality of the service and the dishes.

14/05/2026: It was a delight! Right by the sea, we enjoyed freshly prepared food in a pleasant atmosphere with attentive service. Thank you to the team!

27/12/2025: There's no food, you wait 2 hours for 5 pizzas

27/12/2025: Mediocre pizzas, we waited 1 hour and a half for 5 pizzas
