I migliori ristoranti in Puglia

21/08/2024: Without a doubt the best dining experience I have ever had in Italy, and in contention of all time. The setting of the dining area and food itself are so true to the local area. The staff were both friendly and professional from the moment you walk in the door to your departure and took pride in explaining the sources of their ingredients, which are almost entirely drawn from the local area. A landmark of Puglian cuisine, and a must stop for anyone traveling through the area!

17/08/2024: Recently relocated on a terrace with wonderful views on Trani medieval castle, the Di Gennaro family built a close to perfection fine dining Apulian experience. The restaurant is beautiful both inside and outside, refined and perfectly blended in the environment. The service was excellent, kind and friendly with invading our spaces. The restaurant had also no problem into accommodating variations on the menu proposed. But let’s come to the reason to come here, the gastronomical offer of Quintessenza is deeply rooted into the chef local background, relying on seafood and not being afraid of using staples of the regional cuisine twisting them into something more. The menu we tried was a crescendo in intensity and depth but keeping its balance all the way through from the amuses to the dessert. Personal favourites are the Tortellini and the Fusillone with a mention for the Alici fritte and the Coffee almond and lemon dessert.

19/08/2024: A place that I would strongly recommend to anyone who loves good wine. The owner and the staff were very friendly, appearing knowledgeable, both in explaining the dishes and the wines, undoubtedly revealing passion and dedication for the work. Excellent price quality, the owner offers wines based on the "pockets" of the customers without any pretension or malice, despite the location being highly touristy. If I were to go to Alberobello again I would definitely go back.

16/08/2024: A remarkable experience with a very friendly waiter, he really introduced us to his wines and charcuterie! I recommend!!

21/02/2024: Dinner with colleagues here at the house. We tasted the real typical Lecce cuisine and meat cooked to perfection. Top everything!!

21/02/2024: Excellent cuisine and amazing hospitality to say the least. Really compliments

08/07/2024: Ogni volta che torno in questo ristorante, a distanza di mesi o addirittura di anni, lo trovo sempre eccezionale. L' eccellenza è nella qualità, nella creatività ( senza mai avvicinarsi alla nouvelle cousine o alla cucina fusion ), nell' eleganza, nel servizio impeccabile e, naturalmente, nella superba gustosità. Non saprei consigliare una pietanza particolare, perchè sono tutte fantastiche, dall' antipasto al dessert, ed ogni volta c' è solo il rimpianto di aver tralasciato qualcosa. In ogni caso, mai rinunciare ai fantastici antipasti, assaggiando i quali subito si capisce che non c'è alcun paragone con altri, sia pure rinomati, ristoranti pugliesi. Anche la carta del vini è all'altezza del menu. Provare per credere !

02/07/2024: Excellent restaurant, also suitable for people with intolerance or allergy problems. The owner is ready to satisfy every customer need. Always attentive and present in the presentation of the dishes.

14/08/2024: A wonderful place. We ate (vegetarian) more than well and spent a wonderful evening at the Mint. Very kind staff, you can feel that they do everything from the heart.

14/08/2024: Always delighted to return to the Mint. Beautiful place. Reservation is mandatory.

19/07/2024: I've been coming to this restaurant for ages. This is the right place when you want to make a great impression if you propose it to friends for a carefree dinner or collaborators for a business lunch. The excellent cuisine is undoubtedly their strong point, then if you add the careful selection of wines (there are always new ones) and the unfailing care towards the customer then you really are in the perfect place. The environment and the service are extremely convivial, you immediately feel at ease. I have no doubts, for me L'Esca is the best of all!

09/07/2024: A unique experience. Absolutely incredible raw food, excellent starters, delicious first courses, too bad we were full from the second courses. Excellent wine and impeccable service.

26/07/2024: The food is excellent, the staff is kind and friendly, and their splendid puccia "levante" is highly recommended.

25/07/2024: My two sisters and I dined at this restaurant yesterday (25/07) and had a fantastic experience. We received a warm welcome and were promptly seated. Each of us ordered different dishes, and the service was impressively fast. The food was outstanding, with the turkey baguettes being a standout. The drinks were very affordable, and we each spent less than 10€, leaving fully satisfied. I highly recommend this place for its affordability and excellent quality.

29/08/2024: All very good, very kind staff and normal prices

27/08/2024: Located in the center of Peschici, 2 of us had dinner, a platter for 2 people and a sandwich with sausage and turnip tops. Everything was very good and paid very little. Very kind and quick staff. Highly recommended

26/08/2024: Let's go take a course on how to make caponata

20/08/2024: Amazing pistachio ravioli. A little slow, but overall very good.

08/08/2024: We went as a couple for lunch today after returning from a medical visit. Impeccably hygienic place! Genuine and abundant food with special recipes. Very discreet and very kind owner. The place is very particular in its furnishings. Silence during lunch and relaxing music in the background. A place to recommend, places like this are not easily forgotten.

08/08/2024: We arrived at the restaurant with very little time to have lunch but we still asked if they could cook something very quickly for us. Not only was the staff very helpful and kind, but they also prepared three delicious pasta dishes in just a few minutes. A very nice and welcoming place that is really worth it!

11/07/2024: Cozy atmosphere and delicious cake

08/07/2024: Everything was delicious and the service was excellent!!

07/08/2024: I live in Veneto but coming back once a year for the summer holidays is always nice......a step that I never give up.....if I could give more than 5 stars I would gladly do so

03/08/2024: Great find, great meat and very friendly and welcoming service.

08/08/2024: Fantastic experience! Like feeling at home on holiday! Typical home-made cuisine from starters to desserts and with fresh products. Welcoming and affectionate staff (they know how to pamper their guests), super fast service and abundant dishes!! Super Gina💪❤️

07/08/2024: I have rarely eaten so well! Everything was excellent, it really feels like home. Super recommended.

09/08/2024: Very well decorated place with bottles of wine of different varieties. Very good food, and well decorated table. We had a great time!!!

31/07/2024: Congratulations to Rocco and all the staff at Boccon Divino for the very high quality of the food served and the friendliness of the service. Without a doubt one of the best restaurants in the entire province of Foggia. A certainty both for family meals and for dinners with distant clients and/or friends to let them know about the great quality of our captaincy.

26/07/2024: A beautiful experience, both from a culinary and human point of view. First of all, thanks to chef Luca, his wife and all the staff, people with whom I would sincerely enjoy going out to dinner. Then in dishes all with rich, complex but never arrogant flavours. Almost a star comfort food. As a Piedmontese I really, really appreciated boiled tongue. I wouldn't have been ashamed to do an encore.

21/07/2024: Very welcoming and intimate place, however, the dishes spoke for themselves, describing Puglia, its lands but above all the sea 🌊. At the beginning we expected a classic service like in a tavern but the delicacies and small courtesies of the waiters spoiled us to perfection. Congratulations to all the staff and to the legendary chef/sommelier who took us on a journey among the Apulian vines with delicious wines that matched the dishes 💚 We will definitely be back on another occasion ☺️
