I migliori ristoranti in Lecce

14/04/2026: We celebrated our son's birthday and it was perfect. We have to thank the staff, Martina and Eleonora first and foremost, Mattia and Lorenzo! Excellent products, clean outdoor area, and fast service! Thank you so much.

12/04/2026: So, the food was good, but the service didn't live up to my expectations, especially considering the very positive reviews. It's always a bit complicated to order when you don't speak the same language, but still, I was disappointed. We wanted an ice cream sundae with three scoops—which was actually offered—with three different flavors. But when we asked, we were told it was possible to have two scoops, but not three. So we ordered two scoops with the flavors we wanted, but then we were told we couldn't have two scoops, but only three. I didn't understand! We ended up with three scoops but only two different flavors, even though we had clearly asked for our three desired flavors at the beginning of the order. It's a shame... The photos on the website are quite nice, but for example, when it comes to fruit crepes and there's pineapple, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or even kiwi, and you don't find any of that in your order, it's really disappointing. We ended up with strawberry, apple, and peach, so really nothing like the advertised fruit. It would be good to at least mention that the fruit isn't always the same and list the seasonal options. I don't know, it seems like the right thing to do. 🤷‍♀️ The service was a bit slow too, I thought... Maybe we just had bad luck; everyone makes mistakes, but I'm sharing my experience anyway.

04/05/2026: A really great, authentic, simple, and family-run restaurant! The pasta was excellent, and the wine recommendations were great too! I highly recommend this off-the-beaten-path spot in a lovely neighborhood.

04/05/2026: I'm disappointed because I wanted tomatoes with borage. I even showed a video to make sure I got the right thing. I got tomato and mozzarella bruschetta instead 😏. And I waited 30 minutes when there was no one else there. I should have left...

08/05/2026: Excellent sandwiches made with quality ingredients. Small shop with a few tables for lunch in the city center. The stracciatella and burrata were very creamy.

08/05/2026: Perfect place to grab a quick sandwich. The Pugliese sandwich with burrata, cured meats and courgettes was very good.

10/04/2026: Refined atmosphere, beautiful music, exquisite food, attentive presentation and kind and professional staff.

05/04/2026: A location with meticulous attention to detail, a warm welcome, impeccable and timely service (especially for the Easter lunch). Delicious cuisine, a unique selection of bitters and spirits. Highly recommended.

03/05/2026: The best value for money in Lecce! We received a very warm welcome upon arrival, with a friendly and helpful team. The pizzas are homemade, generously topped, and absolutely delicious. A very pleasant surprise; I highly recommend it!

02/05/2026: Fresh and very delicious pizza! I reccomend Ciro, it's diferrent.

20/04/2026: Cozy atmosphere, very good wines, nice little platter. Go for it!

15/04/2026: The platter for 2 is worth the price, both for its variety and its flavors.

03/04/2026: Delicious pizza in a warm, welcoming, and elegant setting. Excellent dough and quality ingredients. To ensure we were getting the right pizza, we ordered a Margherita last night. We were so impressed we ordered another. Compliments to the owner and the staff. Definitely worth a try, highly recommended.

24/03/2026: A certainty of kindness and quality

01/05/2026: If you're looking for authentic Neapolitan flavors, Don Ciro in Aradeo is the place to be. We tried their fried pizzas, and they were truly delicious, a true delight. Making everything even more enjoyable was Ilaria, who served us with rare professionalism and friendliness. She was super welcoming and available throughout the dinner. Congratulations!

29/04/2026: Excellent food. Beautiful atmosphere. We just felt uncomfortable with the waitress, who seemed annoyed, or we felt like we were being watched because she couldn't wait to see our plates empty. It seemed like we had to hurry up and eat.

10/05/2026: Excellent. We ordered a starter, main course, and dessert, all bursting with flavor. Special mention goes to the specialty appetizer! The welcome was very warm, and you can tell they're passionate about sharing their expertise. I highly recommend it!

02/05/2026: Exceptional restaurant, from the food to the location, the hospitality, and the service. The quality of the ingredients is superb, and not everywhere else can you find such fresh ingredients. Congratulations!

10/05/2026: Excellent seafood, tasty, high-quality dishes. We'll gladly return.

10/05/2026: We are customers of the fishmonger, today we finally tried the restaurant and our expectations were not disappointed, excellent food, very welcoming atmosphere.

10/04/2026: No, look, let's forget it. An experience to forget, to say the least. A mix of Piedmontese cheeses as an appetizer (but didn't people once eat cheese at the end of a meal in Italy?) and a 10x3x1 cm piece of caramelized pancetta—seriously pricey. All this at a truly outrageous price. P.S. Oh, I forgot: there wasn't even a hint of Salento flavors.

05/04/2026: I was there last night and everything was spectacular. I will be back.

04/03/2026: I live in the Leo restaurant and it's original, different, excellent, I'll be back with pleasure, congratulations, my children are happy, I recommend you to everyone

02/02/2026: Top venue as well as the staff, thanks to the owner Leo for the lovely evening and unique welcome.

26/11/2025: Visited on April 25, 2025. I've traveled extensively and I can guarantee that this is one of the best restaurants I've ever had the pleasure of eating at.

11/11/2025: Excellent food and desserts. Prices are a bit higher than elsewhere in Puglia, but we will gladly return.

15/04/2026: I only drove past it... Very nice place, right by the sea. Lots of people sitting at tables. A very pleasant and secluded little village. Perfect for relaxing!

30/03/2026: A must-have in Salento, you can't pass through Porto Badisco without stopping here.

14/05/2026: Everything was excellent, super pizza and fabulous meat... fabulous dinner in their fabulous garden 😍 Congratulations
