I migliori ristoranti in Lecce

19/12/2025: The owners are fun and the atmosphere is very welcoming. We stopped in on karaoke night, which was really enjoyable. The Christmas decorations are stunning. Small place, so reservations are recommended.

11/10/2025: Last night we celebrated my friend's and my birthday at the venue's karaoke party, and it was truly a memorable evening. The staff was engaging, actively participating and livening up the evening. They were eager to accommodate our every request with enthusiasm and kindness. The bartender's singing skills were also remarkable!! :) Congratulations for the wonderful atmosphere you created, and thank you again!!!

18/03/2026: I've been to Nautilus Garden and I have to say it was a truly wonderful experience. The place is well-kept, with a very pleasant garden that creates a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for both a quiet dinner and a more special evening. The winter fireplace is fantastic. The food was excellent; you can taste the quality of the ingredients, and the dishes are well-made, without being too "complicated." The portions were just right and the flavors were truly satisfying, especially the fish. I also liked the service: the staff was kind, helpful, and never intrusive. You can tell they care about their customers. Overall, it's one of those places you'll want to return to, whether to eat well or just relax. Recommended 👍

15/03/2026: Negative experience, terrible service, I don't know how long it takes for the kitchen to bring out the dishes. The owner was thinking about speaking even though the kitchen was jammed.

30/03/2026: For being on the beach...not bad

27/01/2026: The pasta was very good. I also recommended the fried octopus. The girls were very nice and friendly.

25/11/2025: I met the owner, Francesco, at a ceremony I held at his former restaurant when he was just starting out. From the very beginning, I appreciated his professionalism, integrity, commitment to quality, and passion for his work. Over the years, I've continued to appreciate the deliciousness and authenticity of his dishes. What can I say about Matambre? A welcoming place, extremely friendly service, and top-quality food. Congratulations, Francesco. I hope to return soon.

19/11/2025: A real surprise. Excellent quality food. Extremely friendly staff: we felt pampered. Welcoming and refined atmosphere.

24/09/2025: After walking along Otranto’s old town and soaking up the marina views, we stumbled into Gelateria del Fico and it turned out to be one of the highlights of the day. I ordered stracciatella and ricotta, a pairing that completely redefined gelato for me. The stracciatella had a silky vanilla base laced with delicate shards of chocolate that melted on the tongue. The ricotta was incredible: luxuriously creamy, with a natural sweetness and a gentle tang, like cheesecake in frozen form. Together, the flavors balanced richness with freshness, decadent yet refreshing and not too sweet. This is more than just a quick stop! It’s a place that captures the essence of Salento with artisanal quality and flavors that are memorable. Highly recommended if you’re anywhere near Otranto.

14/09/2025: Delicious ice cream good prices!

27/11/2025: Good pizza in a quiet atmosphere. No cover charge. Excellent value. I recommend it.

24/11/2025: Excellent pizzas and fried foods, but their specialty—and believe me, I haven't found it anywhere else—is their second-to-the-minute accuracy with orders. We placed an order over the phone and had agreed to pick it up at 9:20 PM on a Sunday evening (I specify because the pizzeria was busy). Well, at 9:20 PM, they broke the clock and gave us our food. I've never experienced such punctuality. Highly recommended pizzeria.

23/12/2025: The second courses and desserts are very good but the first courses are truly exceptional

20/12/2025: The food was excellent, the atmosphere simple and pleasant. The wait was a bit long, but it didn't matter. I wasn't in a rush, and the staff's kindness more than made up for it.

05/11/2025: Light and excellent pizza, punctuality and kindness

06/09/2025: Visited on the last day of vacation. If I'd discovered it sooner, I might have returned again and again. Delicious takeout pizza.

06/04/2026: The restaurant is located on the way into town from the train station. It was practically empty at lunchtime, with only five tables occupied, and it's no wonder. The restaurant doesn't attract customers at all. They should put some soft, quiet music in the background and put the menu by the entrance so people passing by can look at it. It all looks a bit dull. The menu is generally varied and you'll find both fish and meat. There's also a fixed menu for 23 euros without drinks. It includes first and second courses. I had burrata and a typical pasta for this region; I wanted to try it. The presentation of the dish is also dismal ((( I liked the pasta, be sure to try it. The service is attentive, but not intrusive. Coperto - 3 euros. The bill for one person (antipasti, primo piato, water, coffee) - 30 euros. Overall, the restaurant can be good if you run it, but who am I to tell people how to run their business.

02/11/2025: A lovely restaurant offering an antipasti menu with several small appetizers. Ideal for two people to start with. The Pezzetti di cavallo was excellent, as was the fresh pasta with tomato sauce and ricotta. Simple service and good wine recommendations. We would have liked to see more smiles from our servers. Eating outside is a good option if the weather permits, as the street is quiet.
