I migliori ristoranti di cucina pesce in Puglia

10/06/2026: Highly recommended! Impeccable service, perfect timing (always appreciated with children), and the atmosphere is typical of Salento! The plates were all returned to the kitchen clean.

10/06/2026: Fantastic. Orecchiette with sea bream and yellow cherry tomatoes—OUTSTANDING!

10/08/2026: Good, fresh, and well-cooked food. Very nice place. The price was reasonable and not excessive for the amount we ate. Perfect, I'd say. We'll definitely be back; it's worth it. The paccheri alla pescatrice and the fried fish were delicious. Really good.

09/08/2026: It was a pleasant evening with excellent food, beautifully prepared. The evening was enlivened by a talented and very friendly DJ playing '80s tunes.

13/08/2026: Friendly and welcoming staff. Excellent food (both fish and pizza). Easy to get to. Must try.

12/08/2026: Quality has miserably declined, topped off by unusual rudeness. Until last summer, Vesuvius' pizza by the meter was a guarantee. You could go just for that, and you'd leave feeling satisfied and contented...special, I'd dare say unique, undoubtedly a hallmark of the place. This year, a bitter disappointment! Different dough, scant toppings, and no flavor. Tastes are personal, and that's beyond discussion. But, I repeat, until last year, the same tastes were satisfied. As for the rudeness, however, we can discuss it until tomorrow. There's nothing to complain about with the waiters and table service: courteous and professional, they immediately met our expectations. The lady at the cashier's behavior was quite different. When we politely pointed out a discrepancy in the price of a dessert (the QR code menu at the table indicated a lower price than the one on the bill), she reacted rudely (almost without a word), arguing that the QR code dated back to the Covid era (so why don't they remove it?) and that therefore only the paper menu was valid (which we hadn't requested when ordering dessert, precisely because it was viewable thanks to the QR code). I note that the menu linked in the online booking confirmation email also indicated the same price as the QR code (and, using the same QR code, the prices of the other items ordered corresponded. Have they perhaps remained the same since the Covid era???). When she walked away upset, another employee intervened, and, rather than apologize, supported her colleague's argument, even asking us to leave because they were working. I'll end with a thought: if the ladies are the owners, they should know that courtesy towards every customer is the first calling card of a place... If, however, they are not, it's important for the owners to be aware of this inappropriate behavior. As for us, NEVER AGAIN at Vesuvio, nor will we recommend it.

09/06/2026: Stunning sea, visited during the week in June, around 9:00 in the morning there were no people.

02/06/2026: Nice beach, very good sea, the tower is beautiful.

02/08/2026: Delicious food. Good service. Amazing location. I always start my Apulia vacation here. Highly recommend ❤️🔥

26/07/2026: We wanted to come for a special fish supper for our last night in Italy so chose La Battigia as it had some good reviews. Sadly the evening was very disappointing.....rude, offhand, slow service especially from the lead waiter outside. He never smiled and literally plonked the food down , no grace. We waited a long time to have our order taken and then the starter arrived before we had got our wine and it wasn't particularly busy !! They served the fried calamari without any fresh lemon which I found odd.....🤔. The tuna steak wasn't properly seared and was chewy. We had FAR nicer fish suppers at other less prestigious restaurants on our Italian holiday. As we were leaving a smart young couple arrived in a big car, parked right outside the restaurant blocking a busy road, left their hazard lights on and then came and sat down for a meal .....seemed to us that this place was more about style than substance. Avoid ....and go to a more authentic, friendly restaurant.

16/08/2026: A simply wonderful experience, from every perspective. The dishes were a true discovery: delicate, refined, balanced, and meticulously crafted, showcasing every ingredient. The service was impeccable, attentive, professional, and at the same time extremely welcoming, making us feel immediately at ease. The truly enchanting location made the experience even more special: a splendid sea view complemented the dinner and created a unique and evocative atmosphere. A restaurant where you can sense passion, care, and love for their work. An experience we will definitely cherish and highly recommend to anyone looking to treat ourselves to a truly special evening. Congratulations!

16/08/2026: The experience at Meraviglioso was truly excellent, from arrival to the end of the dinner. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by the staff with great kindness and professionalism. Throughout the evening, they were present and attentive, without ever being intrusive: a meticulous service that contributed greatly to the overall quality of the experience. The cuisine was also very high quality. We began with appetizers, all very good and prepared with top-quality ingredients. The first course was probably one of the highlights of the dinner: well-balanced flavors, excellent ingredients, and preparation that definitely lived up to expectations. The wine cellar deserves special mention. During dinner, we were recommended a wine that proved exceptional and paired perfectly with the dishes. It was a bottle that impressed us so much that I would return to Meraviglioso just to drink it again. Overall, what I appreciated most was the attention to detail throughout the experience: from the welcome to the service, from the quality of the products to the wine selection. You don't just feel like you're dining, but rather being accompanied throughout the evening by a staff that pays attention to detail and knows how to offer advice. Marvellous, it's definitely a restaurant I'd return to. When I'm back in Polignano a Mare, it will definitely be one of my stops.

04/01/2026: A charming location where you can truly leave your worries behind before entering and rediscovering yourself 🤭 The staff and management do the rest.

07/10/2025: An excellent seaside location where taste and ambiance combine to create a wonderfully relaxing and comfortable atmosphere, managed with excellent, courteous and professional service. For me, it's a place I want to return to whenever I can.

05/05/2026: An absolutely fantastic hotel with incredibly helpful staff. The breakfast was the best we had on our entire trip around Italy.

28/04/2026: Warm welcome, I highly recommend it.

31/08/2025: The beach was clean and the managers were as courteous as ever.

22/08/2025: Well-stocked beach, fabulous sea view...a little further on, walking towards the rocks, the sea is Caribbean-like with very warm water, immersed in nature!! I recommend it both for the location and for the bar service, which has a rotisserie full of delicious things to eat and, for those who want, there's also kebab and piadina shop!!! Showers are available for a fee at the price of 3 euros!!!

13/08/2026: A thrilling experience for the eyes and the palate. The restaurant overlooks the Trani dock, enveloping you with the scent of the sea. Impeccable service, the perfect table setting: Murano glasses add a pop of color to a white-clad table. High-quality products, the freshest fish, plating that delights the eye, and flavors that tickle the palate. The restaurant is located in the lovely pedestrian area of ​​Trani's harbor, but this offers the opportunity to take a nice stroll and enjoy the view of the basilica and the fortress. Excellent value, and if you book through The Fork you also get a 20% discount. I recommend booking. We'll be back!!!

12/08/2026: Elaborate dishes, but with fish that isn't freshly caught and lacking a hint of the sea. Good service, but poor-quality ingredients. Little attention to intolerances. Poor value for money.

12/08/2026: Excellent restaurant in beautiful Lecce, we dined outside preferring the view of the amphitheater to the air conditioning inside, excellent raw fish with explanation of the salts by the maître Antonio, always smiling and never intrusive, who also recommended a Negramaro rosé that paired well with the dish, the grilled octopus and the ceviche also left us satisfied, spectacular bread and to finish, homemade desserts, compliments for the professionalism.

11/08/2026: Drawn by the desire to eat seafood "with style," we chose this restaurant in the heart of Lecce. The location is meticulously maintained, the service excellent, and the food, expertly cooked and presented, is even more excellent.

31/05/2026: The location is great, right on the beach. The property is clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are decades old. Clean but very worn. The rooms lack kettles, coffee, tea, water, or drinking glasses. The air conditioning is noisy but doesn't cool well. Delicious coffee for breakfast.

31/05/2026: I give it one star because it's the only way to give it less. Terrible experience: poor hygiene and dangerous structural problems. Avoid. I stayed at this 3/4-star hotel hoping for a comfortable experience, but I was extremely disappointed. Unfortunately, the facility does not meet minimum hygiene and maintenance standards. Here are the main problems I encountered during my stay: • Cleanliness: The sanitary conditions were unacceptable. Bathroom: The shower was broken and unusable. Furniture: The bedside table in the room was damaged. Safety: The most serious problem concerns the electrical system. The only outlet was burned out, and the plastic cover on the wall was broken and extremely dangerous. I left before the scheduled nights and they wanted payment for both one night already paid for by the person who had organized the conference I attended plus the extra night. So I explained the situation to the reception, explaining why I was leaving, also having to find new accommodations, and that if they had insisted I would have called the NAS. I do not recommend this property to anyone, especially considering the hotel's declared category. I am surprised that anyone still chooses it. Close immediately.

01/08/2026: Quiet atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff. Excellent food. Lovely setting both inside and out in the garden.

28/07/2026: Good restaurant where the locals eat. Good value for money. Free parking.

22/08/2026: We had dinner here this evening, two couples. We arrived at 9:00 PM and didn't start eating until 10:30 PM, after about an hour and a half of waiting. We finally left around midnight. We each had a pizza, five medium draft beers, a portion of fries, and two bottles of water, for a total of €107 (€26.75 per person). The price, considering what we ate, didn't seem out of line, but honestly, I expected a much better experience. The pizza, at least the one I had, wasn't the best: I only ate half. What I was most disappointed about, however, was the incredibly long wait. I'm a local and have always had a good experience there in the past, which is precisely why I was particularly disappointed this evening. What bothers me even more is the feeling that, once seated at a table, locals are treated like passing tourists: you come in, pay, and say hello, with little regard for the fact that you might be a repeat customer. I don't like leaving negative reviews, especially for a place where I've previously enjoyed my experience, but this time, unfortunately, the experience was truly awful. I sincerely hope it was just a bad night, because I'd expect a different kind of attention from a local place, especially towards those who live here and choose to return.

21/08/2026: Our experience was, unfortunately, disappointing. Although the restaurant was almost empty, with only two tables occupied, we were not given the opportunity to choose where to sit, but were shown the table we were supposed to sit at. The most unpleasant aspect, however, was the waiting time: we waited almost an hour to receive our food, which is hard to understand considering how few customers there were in the restaurant. In addition, the waiters were almost constantly standing right behind us, which created a feeling of discomfort and being watched, although there were enough other free areas in the restaurant. Unfortunately, the food did not compensate for the experience either — it was rather mediocre and certainly not at the level we would have expected after such a long wait. Overall, an experience that could be considerably improved both in terms of service and attention to customer comfort, as well as the quality of the dishes

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

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