I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Taranto

28/09/2025: A very well-kept and beautiful place both inside and out. Unfortunately, the only downside is the pizzas. The dough was very tough, probably not risen properly; you'd need a chainsaw to cut them. The selection of toppings wasn't particularly appealing. Only the gourmet bruschetta was good. The quality/price ratio was average.

21/09/2025: An evening to forget. The problem wasn't the food, but the absurd disrespect shown to the customers: they made us sit between the two bathroom doors. I pointed this out to the waitress, but she didn't do a thing to resolve the situation. I only stayed because we were among the first to arrive, and I already knew I'd be leaving within twenty minutes, and so I was. It wasn't an oversight, but a deliberate choice: to fill two extra seats, sacrificing the dignity of the people. This isn't hospitality, it's greed. A restaurant that treats its customers like this doesn't deserve it.

02/09/2025: Kudos to the owner/chef, who cooks truly well. The menu is varied and the prices are absolutely competitive. The place is very welcoming, and the terrace makes for wonderful evenings. The bathrooms are spotless and equipped with everything you could need, although they're a bit dated, like the rest of the place. Excellent food, serenity, and so much kindness. They even gave us a gift of friselle baked in the wood-fired oven. We'll be back as soon as we can.

31/08/2025: Beautiful establishment; I sat on the first-floor terrace. The atmosphere was well-maintained, and the food was good. We had pizza, fried calamari, and an appetizer. Highly recommended.

13/10/2025: I order from them often... Excellent pizza...

13/10/2025: Good pizza with many varieties to choose from, efficient service, you don't have to wait long to eat even though the place is always crowded, excellent prices

19/09/2025: Outdoors on a terrace under the stars.

18/09/2025: The octopus salad made in Puglia, and especially in a seaside place, is unacceptable... it's a shame because the place deserves better.

21/09/2025: A place to feel good – highly recommended I spent a few days at La Giara Risto Relais and can highly recommend my stay. As a single woman traveling alone, it was especially important to me to feel safe and well looked after – and that was exactly the case here from the very first minute. The room was exceptionally clean, tastefully furnished, and meticulously maintained down to the last detail. I also really liked the quiet, somewhat secluded location. Parking was available right next to the rooms. What made the stay special was the warmth of the hosts. The Italian mentality – open, warm, and familiar – was palpable at all times. I felt welcome, safe, and completely at home in every way. If you're looking for clean, quiet accommodations with genuine Italian hospitality, this is the place for you. I would love to come back.

03/08/2025: A wonderful start to your vacation! Perfect calamari and a bistecca di cavallo, caprese for dessert…

29/08/2025: The restaurant is beautiful, the waiters are very kind and always available, the pizza and the French fries were delicious, highly recommended.

15/08/2025: Long wait for a toasted pizza, as if it were frozen, not recommended.

15/09/2025: Among the best! Typical Taranto home cooking and pizzas just like they used to be! Fantastic homemade meatballs and fried croquettes! The coccioli and octopus alla Luciana are superb!

29/07/2025: Super pizza, super croquettes, very quiet place, we will be back, thank you ❤️

02/10/2025: A great place for a quick, warm meal. The food is fresh, made on site, filling, and very good. I had the opportunity to try two kinds of pizza – both delicious. The service is friendly, attentive, and smiling, and you can communicate in Italian and English. Seating can be difficult later in the day due to the number of people who want to eat. I highly recommend this place.

15/09/2025: The location is very unique, nestled in a small park where there are other places to enjoy street food! The panzerotto is delicious! It's self-service, so you order, take it, and sit down.

06/09/2025: The pizza was good, but the biggest problem was the long wait—over an hour for two pizzas. After notifying the wait staff about the delay, we were told the place was full and the wait was normal. It's worth noting that we specifically went at the earliest hour, and in fact, we were the only ones in the room when we ordered. Finally, during the payment process, there was no apology, not even a hello or thank you. We won't be returning.

28/08/2025: Without infamy and without praise

07/09/2025: Excellent bread, various types of focaccia, and a variety of appetizers. Excellent bakery.

30/08/2025: A small but well-organized space, with fast service and delicious food—a puccia with pancetta, provolone, lampascioni, etc.—with reasonable prices. It's the perfect place after a soccer game.

26/08/2025: "Pizzeria ai Portici da Ricci" was a real surprise. I tried the puccia, which was delicious—crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, like it was made in a wood-fired oven. For dessert, the fried scialatielli with Nutella: a super generous portion and delicious! The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is truly welcoming. A place I recommend to everyone!

21/08/2025: Greasy and poorly cooked pizza... Unfriendly staff

10/09/2025: A wonderful discovery..... A wonderful family evening. We celebrated a birthday. What can I say, everything was good, in fact excellent.... Starting with the appetizers, a delight. The pizza was excellent, the drinks were cold and brought to the table on time. Not to mention the hot and tasty side dishes. Chips, croquettes and everything else... Delicious desserts.... New and beautiful outdoor setting, very kind staff.... See you soon

06/09/2025: We've been going to this place for years and enjoy their famous pizzas at home too, but last night we went to the outdoor seating. I repeat, nothing to complain about the food, but the service was way too slow. There's only one manager taking orders, Mr. Antonio, a spectacular person, precise and very friendly, but he can't manage a place that can hold over 100 people alone, so for us the only thing they need to fix is ​​the order service. Last night we ordered at 9:00 PM and ate at 10:45 PM. With kids, it's really difficult to manage the hunger situation🤣.

02/09/2025: The first night I was in a hurry and ordered a delicious takeaway puccia!!! The next night I went with my husband for pizza and we were both completely satisfied with the quality of the ingredients, the delicious pizza dough, light and perfectly cooked, and the friendly and professional service! Highly recommended!!!

28/08/2025: I had take out and had a fairly good Quattro Formaggio. Although it is possible to have better, but challenging at this price. Friendly and freshly made. Fun atmosphere and there’s a reason it’s popular!

07/09/2025: We were at Chiatona in the open air, the service was impeccable, with a simple trailer transformed into a mini pizzeria, fantastic, with the lady, the wife of Mr. Tagariello, really good, very friendly, and we will return, to Massafra

19/07/2025: Very friendly staff, excellent food, and the owner is a fantastic person with a unique kindness. I don't live in this town but I go to visit it for its countless advantages. Congratulations!
