I migliori ristoranti di cucina pesce in Puglia

06/01/2026: Excellent restaurant, abundant dishes and exceptional prices

25/12/2025: It was amazing to have food inside of traditional Italian restaurant

26/02/2025: Very nice restaurant in a vaulted cellar. Good food, friendly service, friendly host; a nice experience!

08/02/2025: Great restaurant, excellent service, excellent cuisine

04/01/2026: This review is about the restaurant. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, though in my opinion the tables are too close together, with good background music that doesn't disturb conversation at the table. It was a dinner for two, but unfortunately the expectations weren't reflected in the flavors of the dishes. Cuttlefish julienne was drowned in a flavorless broth, and the crispy potatoes described on the menu were soggy. The other appetizer was off the menu, and I don't remember the name, nor the flavor. The cod steak was excellent, perfectly cooked, and paired perfectly with the creamed cannellini beans; you could taste the various flavors in your mouth. The purple gnocco wasn't made with purple potatoes, but rather purple potatoes and carrots, according to the waiter. The Gallipoli purple shrimp didn't make a great impression on the dish at all; they were just ordinary white shrimp, and the purple shrimp, even cooked, had an unmistakable flavor. The prices, however, were very fair for the setting. I'll conclude by saying that cuisine is always subjective. P.S. The panettone offered by the house is very good.

28/12/2025: I ate at this restaurant a week ago. The place is very beautiful, intimate, and well-kept. The staff is welcoming and professional. The menu has a nice variety and is appetizing. My overall rating is a seven, because what we ordered wasn't as extraordinary as we expected. We ordered a first and second course of meat, preceded by an appetizer. Their strong point is probably seafood, and there was indeed a large selection of very interesting catch of the day, but we weren't in the mood to try it. We'll be back for a second review of the seafood.

18/11/2025: Divine lunch, congratulations! We were there yesterday, a Monday in November, at a table on the veranda with a glass window that lets you enjoy the sea, which has its charm even in winter. We left delighted. We'll be back soon! Thank you 🤗

21/10/2025: Lazy bartender...uncleared tables...noisy computer files. No!

31/12/2025: Mare in Tavola: Fresh and tasty seafood specialties in a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.

18/12/2025: A welcoming and well-kept restaurant serving truly excellent and flavorful seafood, featuring the freshest fish dishes, tasty appetizers, and beautifully executed first courses. The staff is extremely kind and professional, the service is attentive, and the atmosphere is pleasant, perfect for a seafood dinner with friends or as a couple. Excellent value for the quality!

17/12/2025: Lunch here was a regular stop when we were in the area on weekdays (since on holidays you have to book well in advance). Unfortunately, yesterday it didn't go very well... (Did the chef change?) The appetizers were prepared who knows how long ago, even the seafood linguine was nothing like the ones we've had the other times, the grilled vegetables were burnt, the fish was the same story, only the calamari was okay, the shrimp contained sand, the swordfish (Oceanico) tasted old. The black truffle tasted only of ice. And a stomach ache... We were hungry and we gulped down the ceca, we were actually asked at the cashier how it had gone, but to avoid controversy, we paid and left because we didn't want to ruin our day. Obviously we won't be back again.

14/12/2025: The appetizers were okay, but the mussels...sorry, I know a lot about fish...and they were dirty, salty, inedible. The waiters were very unfriendly. The pasta with the lentils was okay, but very salty. In the end, the owner didn't charge for the mussels. But no thanks. There are much better places in Italy to eat fresh fish.

01/10/2025: Very friendly staff and delicious food. It felt a lot more local than some of the more touristy restaurants along the front

26/09/2025: I really liked it. And the waitress was very funny. Very nice, very good time.

30/12/2025: We had lunch and ordered mixed fried fish, which was super salty and didn't taste like fish, troccoli allo scoglio, which were tasteless and the fish didn't taste like fish, and finally spaghetti with clams but this also didn't taste like anything.

24/11/2025: Excellent restaurant; we were in Barletta on an errand and found this restaurant almost by accident; excellent food, friendly staff, excellent value, highly recommended.

07/10/2025: GOOD but… DON'T GET THE RAW FISH! So let's start with the fact that the fried fish is very good. Like the other appetizers we ordered… but there's one big, big flaw. The raw seafood… too expensive for such an overly elaborate dish. But ugly, tasteless… only beautiful to look at. 3 flavorless tartares, not the best fish (by type), accompanied by a flask of boh-infused oil (sour, inedible, to be avoided). Except for this salty aside, which we could have easily avoided… The appetizer was good! And the first courses… WELL, my friend… The lobster first course was “SCARY”!! Beautiful, colorful, substantial, fresh, and so on. 2 important notes, however: 1st, well done for the selection of bitters (probably a local company, a series of very nice bitters found in many restaurants in the area). Second, you can't be a Michelin-recommended restaurant... and you have no system or way to keep the dining room cool. Two air conditioners, one of which is turned off due to condensation... too bad that in the summer, with wine, dinner becomes unbearable. The raw ham (which leaves much to be desired) and the heavy sweating on the plate cost them one star in this review. Turn on the fan now!!!!

04/10/2025: Very good food if your looking for seafood close to the ocean! Thank you!

03/01/2026: A truly pleasant and homely place. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly! The orecchiette with tomato sauce are delicious!

17/12/2025: Returned for the second time and extremely satisfied, quality of products and excellent service.. kindness of the waiters and the owner.

22/08/2025: A lovely, quiet, and clean place. The staff is friendly, and the owner, Maddalena, is the perfect hostess. The bread and mussel meatballs with pecorino fondue are a must-try. Recommended for a relaxing, family-friendly evening.

21/08/2025: I don’t even know where to start. At all the places in Cisternino, the food tasted like sadness on a plate, the service moved slower than a broken clock, and the decor looked like it was designed by someone in need of bifocals. If disappointment was a flavor, this place has perfected it. I don’t even know where to start.

02/01/2026: Too much money for a very ordinary pizza, the chips are inedible, I appreciate that they are made by them but they are terrible

15/11/2025: Very professional and friendly staff, a place with meticulous attention to detail, delicious food. We'll be back and I recommend it to everyone. 😊

04/01/2026: Clean and welcoming place, attentive and courteous staff, excellent food! Congratulations, nothing to envy from restaurants where you only pay for the name these days....

29/12/2025: The food is really excellent and authentic in this place. Spaghetti all’assassina and fish are absolutely delicious. The place is very close to the sea and perfect for a walk after eating. Finding a parking can be a mission impossible, better to reach this place walking or by taxi. Reserve your table in advance, above all during the weekend!

27/12/2025: The quality of the food was good, well-prepared.... a slightly larger portion would have been appreciated... the service was attentive (a bit intrusive for some).... you felt like you were being watched a little too much by the waiter, who was always attentive, helpful, and precise.

21/12/2025: It was very good! The atmosphere is lovely and the waiters are very attentive. Definitely worth a visit, even in winter.

28/12/2025: This place is a sure thing, very welcoming. The dishes are simple but high-quality.

26/12/2025: Excellent quality and kindness of the owner and all the staff, worth trying.
