I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Puglia

20/07/2026: Il Giardino is nestled among the trulli on Mount San Gabriele, an enchanting place. The staff is very courteous, friendly, and smiling, and the cuisine is traditional. My wife and I loved it, from the homemade Italian orecchiette to the grilled meats—everything was delicious. I would also recommend it for those who want to eat inside the trulli because it's also very cool inside, given that the trulli are cold inside in the summer thanks to the white stone. Rating 10/10

20/07/2026: A wonderful experience. I recommend it because the garden is truly lovely. The owner was incredibly kind. I sat at a table with my girlfriend that was in the sun since everyone else was busy, and the gentleman kindly opened an umbrella for us. The waiters were also very kind and smiling. They brought us plates of fresh, delicious orecchiette pasta, accompanied by a truly unique house wine. They also served a pork rib and salad for a very reasonable price, considering the place you're eating at. I recommend it to everyone. It's a sensational place in the UNESCO-listed trulli, with fantastic staff and food. Thanks again for everything! 5 stars from me!

31/05/2026: Very friendly staff. Warm atmosphere. We tried a fantastic fresh-squeezed lemonade.

18/04/2026: The Lady upfront was so mean!!!!!

28/06/2026: An experience of light and shade I dined last night for the first time with a group of friends, opting for the €25 fixed menu. Positive notes: The location: The place is truly beautiful, well-kept, and welcoming, ideal for an evening with friends. The portions: There's nothing to complain about in terms of quantity; the food is definitely plentiful, and no one left empty-handed. What didn't work: The quality: Although the portions were generous, the overall quality of the dishes was unfortunately mediocre. Nothing special. The (too) rushed service: The waiters were definitely too quick to clear the table. I was distracted by my phone for literally a minute, and by the time I put it down, my orecchiette with ragù (which I was still eating) had already evaporated along with the plate! In short: excellent for the quantity and the ambiance, but there's definitely room for improvement in the quality of the food and the timing of the service, giving customers time to breathe (and finish their meal).

27/06/2026: Excellent restaurant with a very warm welcome.

11/06/2026: They're not pizzas, they're paintings!

02/06/2026: Very good pizzas and fresh ingredients, you can taste the quality! Fair prices and a little piece of paradise located behind the newly opened pizzeria. Very nice 😍

28/11/2025: A charming restaurant located near Gallipoli's historic center. Plenty of seating, both on the ground floor and a mezzanine level. The food is generally excellent, including the €25 fixed menu (drinks and cover charge excluded), which includes an appetizer, a first course, and a second course (your choice).

24/11/2025: Welcoming, respectful and very good staff, food rating 10

31/08/2025: Excellent pizza, hard to find in Puglia because it's so cheap. The tuna steak and fish appetizer (simple but appropriate for the location) were delicious. The staff was fantastic at handling large tables with tons of requests.

28/08/2025: What can I say...nightmare kitchens, pizza ditto.

27/06/2026: Delivery was over an hour late. The pizza was delicious, but I would have preferred more honesty and not to wait in vain for an order that arrived at 11:36 PM instead of 9:00 PM... If I'd known, I would have grabbed a couple of spaghetti right away...

18/05/2026: Even if people tell you to come half an hour early to get a decent time slot, they still go over the top by at least 30 minutes. I also recommend buying a new phone because perhaps they don't fully understand what customers are asking for, or if you don't know what something is, they ask. Today I was forced to throw away two pizzas because there was mozzarella, as specified. And please tie your hair back; we found a long black hair in the fries. I really don't recommend it unless you're a daredevil.

24/10/2025: Great Italian restaurant. Service was outstanding. We actually wanted to order pizza. The waiter said he'd bring us something better. And several plates with different dishes arrived. It was a feast and incredibly tasty. A very nice surprise from the staff. We'd be happy to come back anytime.

06/10/2025: The pizza is okay...nothing remarkable, but you'll find much better in town...just look for reviews on Google and you'll be better served elsewhere...because here it's a barracks! You arrive, they might serve you what you ordered if they want, they yell at you or look at you badly as soon as you make a comment, you eat if you want otherwise it's the same, then you pay and get out! What a totally disrespectful attitude towards customers! Goodbye!

30/05/2026: For €12, a paltry appetizer. We were told it was for two people, but it wasn't nearly enough. Everything was cold, and the cured meats weren't fresh. It's a tourist trap.

18/05/2026: Last Sunday I had a spritz at this bar. It was served to me full of ice, without a couple of taralli or crisps, without anything, and I paid a whopping €7 for it, plus a 0.50c service charge, and I bought a small bag of crisps myself. As a Venetian, I'm horrified. We pay €4 to €5 for a spritz, and with it, you're offered a bowl of crisps or pretzels or other tasty little appetizers that we call "chicchetti." We use good prosecco, not just Campari and mineral water, as I believe this one has been done, and we always ask the customer if they'd like some ice, too. It's better than sipping on a good Primitivo or Aleatico in Puglia; leave the spritz up north. Stay away!!!

27/02/2026: AWFUL EXPERIENCE! They have no ingredients. No meat. Only two beer choices. Dirty place. Rude staff. Yes, they allowed themselves to insult three children (9, 12, and 2 years old) just because they were chasing each other (there were only six of us. The room was empty). In the end, they charged us €2 more for disturbing them. ABSURD

20/02/2026: If you want to spend 3 or 4 days on the toilet, eat pizza from here.

07/02/2026: It's true that you have to multiply the time guaranteed by a pizzeria like this by three! 45 minutes becomes two and a quarter hours! What can I say, thank you? Thank you! ** (2 stars)

02/07/2026: A simply spectacular pizza: light, fragrant, and perfectly leavened dough, with a soft crust that melts in your mouth. The tomato sauce is flavorful and balanced, the mozzarella is just the right amount of stringy, and the fresh ingredients are all there, one by one, without overpowering the flavors. Every bite is a perfect balance of crispiness and softness, with an aroma that makes you hungry from the first moment. You immediately understand that behind it is a pizza chef who works with passion, attention, and great experience. My compliments to the pizza chef: a pizza like this is unforgettable.

16/05/2026: I ordered pizzas at 7:30 PM, and the order was confirmed. It never arrived, and when you call, they're arrogant and rude. It's 10 PM, and I can still eat. Don't order.

28/06/2026: Really bad service, we arrived until midnight and in the end they didn't even serve us, there wasn't even a pizza chef and they didn't even warn us, bad experience, I strongly advise against it

06/06/2026: We ordered two pizzas to go on a Saturday, an hour and a half late, plus we received pizzas we hadn't ordered. We supposedly ordered two, but three arrived, one of which was completely burned... When we called back, they told us it wasn't true, that we ordered three, when in reality that wasn't the case, and they told us it was a lie that the pizza was burned...
