I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Puglia

05/07/2026: Delicious, needs no further explanation. There were a few mosquitoes, but it wasn't a big deal.

18/06/2026: Is the best pizza in Castellana Grotte!!!! The pizza is awesome!!! And everyone have to try Montanarina desert!

09/06/2026: Lovely waitstaff and nice seating area. Our starters were tasty, especially the zucchini crepe. However we were disappointed in ours mains - the gnocchi and fried squid/prawns were not as tasty as some of the other meals we have had in Puglia.

31/05/2026: We went to this restaurant yesterday to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. What can I say? It's a very elegant restaurant, with attentive and polite staff and delicious food. If you're near Lecce, I highly recommend it!

16/05/2026: Prices and quality are beyond every pizza before. It was great experience.

15/05/2026: Excellent pizzeria, clean environment. Excellent pizzas, well-cooked and made with quality ingredients. Reservations are required. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The staff is friendly and professional. Usually crowded, with many takeout customers. The only drawbacks are the noise level and the tables are too close together.

09/07/2026: Good pizza, but rather expensive by Italian standards. The staff was friendly. Long wait. The alley was very crowded with tourists, so people were constantly squeezing past our table while we ate.

08/07/2026: Very nice place Excellent service

12/06/2026: Out of curiosity, given its fame and social media buzz, I went there on Sunday evening. Nothing negative, in fact, you can tell from the first bite that the ingredients are excellent, the cuisine excellent, and the service really fast and satisfying. The only thing that left me surprised (but not disappointed) was that I expected a thinner pizza, more "Barese-style," but instead it was slightly thick and overcooked.

10/06/2026: I'm referring to the stand in Torre Quetta. It was a truly disappointing experience. The staff, including the owner and pizza chef, were extremely rude and impolite, which completely ruined the atmosphere. The food was decent, but nothing special, certainly not enough to make up for the staff's behavior. I had to wait an hour for a pizza, with no explanation or courtesy. I strongly advise against this place: there are many better pizzerias, both in terms of quality and service. Unlike the kiosks next door, where the service is impeccable and the kindness is a given.

05/07/2026: Disappointing experience. I ordered seafood pasta, which arrived cold and with the pasta still raw. When the staff asked if everything was okay, we politely addressed the issue without creating any controversy. Instead of receiving a simple apology, what I believe to be the owner arrived, asserting in a rather intimidating manner that it was impossible for the dish to have been served in that condition. We calmly reiterated what had happened, but the way the situation was handled left us more disappointed than the dish itself. At the end of the meal, we were told that they would offer us amaro (bitter liquor) for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, looking at the other tables, we saw that amaro was offered to all customers, so it wasn't a gesture of consideration for the inconvenience. Mistakes can happen in any restaurant. What really makes the difference is how they are handled. In this case, the ability to listen to the customer and recognize a mistake was lacking.

02/07/2026: We discovered this restaurant while we were at the beach, unfortunately (you'll understand why) on our last day in Otranto. It was the best meal we've had since we've been in Puglia (for 8 days), so since we discovered the restaurant for lunch, we've eaten there once more in the evening. First of all, I want to give all the credit and congratulations to the dark-haired, bearded waiter, from July 2, 2026, who served us at both meals, and was very professional, attentive to details and on top of his job. He made us feel very good and certainly deserves all the praise and a raise 😁. The location is right on the beach and offers a wonderful view. The interior looks luxurious, clean and well-kept. The food is very good. For lunch I tried entrecotes with truffle mayonnaise, which were brilliant and made me regret that I don't have at least one more day to eat again. I chose the beef cooked medium well on the waiter's recommendation, so it was perfect. Also, on the waiter's recommendation, I chose a local rose wine, very aromatic and tasty. My partner had gnocchi with pistachios, shrimp and clams, which were also very tasty and a large portion. In the evening we chose to eat sushi, and shrimp tempura. The soy sauce was very good, and the sushi rolls were tasty and aromatic. This time I chose a very good local white wine. Also, the dessert was very good, I had panna cotta and my partner had tiramisu, both very tasty, but here I want to note again the waiter who was very attentive to details and gave us a pleasant surprise. Although the prices were a little higher than in other restaurants (~75€ per meal, with main course + wine + dessert) it was the best restaurant I ate at in all of Puglia.

04/07/2026: Very nice place, fast service, and very friendly and helpful staff. I'll be back if I have the chance. Superb food, trofie with pistachio pesto and shrimp, exceptional.

30/06/2026: Impeccable service Excellent food quality!!

29/06/2026: Fantastic pizzeria... amazing pizzas. Incredible value for money. Incredible!

11/01/2026: The food arrived cold. We waited a long time for just a starter. We were tricked into thinking they were serving pizza for lunch.

11/01/2026: We loved the food, highly recommended

20/07/2026: First evening in Gallipoli, we stopped for dinner here. The dinner exceeded our expectations: delicious, carefully prepared dishes, excellent service, and a very fair price. Highly recommended.

14/07/2026: I ate food at the restaurant today. My Italian is bad so I ordered through the app looking at the pictures. What I got was completely different to what I ordered. It was supposed to be Fusili with octopus and instead I got Fusili with some other fish. It tasted horrendous. The woman serving us was rushing us even though we were trying to take our time to understand the menu. (Edit) You can think what you want about rushing or not. We had our menus open. You are correct saying I ordered the Fusilli cooked by the chef but I also looked at the photo from the QR code on YOUR tables and looked at photos to better help me decide with my decision. How dare you judge how I eat. I used Google translate the whole time FYI. I advise you not to be so rude in your responses. It is not my fault you cannot handle criticism. It is my review of your company. Agree or disagree, it is MY review.

26/04/2026: Delicious and inexpensive pizzas! Only 15 minutes from the center and the manager is super friendly :)

16/04/2026: Delicious flavours, fast and kind service, fair prices, highly recommended!!!

21/06/2026: You have to try this place's pizza because you'll be completely amazed by the quality of the ingredients. Thanks to the owner's kindness, we were seated in a private, clean corner. The smell is unbeatable.

26/03/2026: Welcoming place and very friendly staff who make you feel at home every time we return. The food is divine and the service is fast. Top notch.

23/06/2026: Friendly staff, fair prices, delicious pizza! I'll definitely be back.

08/06/2026: On holiday in Puglia, staying in Bari. We went to the pizzeria twice. The people were super friendly, the pizzas were very good, and you should definitely try the pizza! 🍕 And enjoy a peaceful meal. Highly recommended.
