I migliori ristoranti in Lecce

17/04/2026: Vegan friendly, seitan prepared by them, affordable price, good, recommended.

04/04/2026: The place appears simple and nice but for the products they sell the prices are too high and inside it is not very comfortable as the tables are small and often and willingly it creates an almost chaotic environment on weekends if crowded, getting to the point I did not have a good experience all in all, I am not saying that the product is not decent or good but it does not apply to how they sell it or how in general they promote this piadineria that has recently opened and in "hipe".

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.

28/10/2025: High quality. Exceptional staff. Thanks to Alessandro. You're one of a kind.

08/09/2025: Excellent pizza and friendly and helpful staff… recommended

28/04/2026: Spectacular aperitif, highly recommended

22/04/2026: positive combination of education, professionalism and good taste

19/08/2025: Very friendly staff, super clean place

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.

11/04/2026: The service was unsatisfactory. The lady at the register, Francesca, was rude and even kicked customers off their tables. Her behavior was absurd, to say the least... rude, boorish, ill-mannered, and disrespectful toward regular customers. Once we reached the register, she started yelling at us like crazy. I advise you not to come because if you do, you'll only receive an out-of-this-world, almost utopian attitude. If it weren't for Francesca, it would be a lovely, welcoming bar, but unfortunately, she is.

19/03/2026: A lovely atmosphere, the food is good, from appetizers to first and second courses. The staff is really friendly and always smiling, especially the girl with red hair and glasses. Whether you go alone, as a couple, or in a group, it's always worth it!

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!

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.

14/02/2026: Food was delicious. Nice staff. Typical Italian taste

23/01/2026: Friendly staff and great coffee

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.

22/04/2026: I discovered this place by chance and was truly impressed. The atmosphere is welcoming and refined, and the staff is always kind and helpful. I tried the eggplant parmigiana and the meatballs in tomato sauce: both were delicious, reminiscent of home cooking: you can taste the quality of the ingredients and the care taken in their preparation. Also excellent for a quick lunch or an aperitif with friends. Highly recommended 👍🏻

20/04/2026: The octopus pignata has no taste, it's fatty; the special salad is made with canned mushrooms, they have too much juice, and the same is true for the artichokes.

03/05/2026: Excellent place, great service, and delicious food! Friendly and fast service. We truly loved it.

02/05/2026: Featured on The Fork with many positive reviews, but unfortunately it doesn't deserve them. The orecchiette were topped with a sauce made from practically raw cherry tomatoes; they tasted like they'd been poured straight from the jar onto the plate, reheated. The spaghetti with sea urchins was flavorless. The place is a bit dark. The staff, however, are very friendly.

03/05/2026: Best restaurant in the world 🧡 Alessandro and Alessandra are unique and special. Thank you ❤️

01/05/2026: Amazing restaurant in Lecce, with the most amazing seafood! The salmon carpaccio is the tastiest thing I’ve ever tried in my life. Also the Tiramisu with hot coffee is probably the best in Italy. Special kudos to our waiter, Antonio, for amazing service and for being so incredibly kind!
