I migliori ristoranti in Lecce

02/02/2025: Very welcoming restaurant with good food, courteous service and friendly owners, highly recommended.

13/10/2025: We ate well. The restaurant offers a set menu. I've been back and can confirm that the food is excellent. The tasting menu is truly exquisite!

12/10/2025: We visited Gustavo's and had a very positive overall experience. The staff is extremely helpful, friendly, and approachable, always ready to accommodate guests' needs. The location is magnificent, with a lovely little garden ideal for summer lunches and dinners, and a well-kept, clean, and elegant interior with a rustic touch that makes it welcoming. The menu is a fixed price and includes five appetizers, a first course, a second course, and a dessert (drinks and cover charge not included). The food is excellent, high-quality, and prepared with attention to detail. The only real flaw was the portion size. There were five of us, and the courses were served as a single dish to be shared, resulting in a taste rather than a portion, so much so that we had to ask for more of the second course. There was a bit of a wait between courses, which is understandable given the crowd and the number of seats, but otherwise it was a positive experience. Thank you.

19/06/2025: Gorgeous estate with great amenities! The staff is super friendly and both restaurants are excellent.

18/06/2025: Amazing staff, I immediately felt in tune, they were super helpful and helped me when I needed it. It was easy to get there, and being in the countryside I enjoyed nature by going out for a walk nearby. Sunset from the structure is crazy and the massage service at the spa was worth it every time, highly recommended.

18/08/2025: Lido del Sol in Marina di Pescoluse is a little paradise in Salento! The well-kept lawn area offers ample space, well-spaced umbrellas, and a perfect play area for children. Extremely friendly and professional staff, excellent cuisine (pizza and fresh seafood), a bar with cocktails, and quality dining options. The sea is picture-perfect, with crystal-clear waters reminiscent of the Maldives of Salento. A few details could be improved, such as the restrooms and bar prices in high season, but overall, a truly positive experience.

14/08/2025: "Incredibly negative experience! I booked and paid months ago, but when I arrived at the establishment, I found everything closed. Unacceptable attitude and a total lack of organization. Not recommended to anyone!"

21/09/2025: Wonderful location, very cute, quaint place Everything is included in the prices 😉❤️

21/09/2025: Very pleasant for a drink at the end of the day

07/09/2025: Excellent place in the center of Lecce where you can eat excellent meat

04/09/2025: We visited this restaurant in Lecce with a group of six, with a reservation, and initially the experience was promising. The outdoor setting is charming, nestled in the streets of the historic center, and the food was served promptly (a 10-20 minute wait, absolutely adequate). Unfortunately, the evening took a turn for the worse due to a sudden downpour. I believe the staff didn't handle the situation promptly: several dishes were left out in the rain, and for some of my friends, virtually the entire dinner was wasted. We customers had to make do with "saving" what food we could, eating standing up like 15 other people around us. The staff only gave us a small corner of a table to finish what we had salvaged, a gesture I appreciate, but unfortunately it wasn't accompanied by any other thoughtfulness. When it came time to get the bill, no discount was given, other than the reduction of the cover charge (which, in reality, wasn't applied, given the situation). We pointed out that some people had eaten practically nothing but still found themselves having to pay for everything, and the discussion became tense, with sometimes rude responses. In short: the dishes we sampled were good, but the overall experience was ruined by poorly trained, unresponsive, and, at times, rude service. I believe that, given such a difficult evening for the customers, a little more attention would have been warranted.

22/08/2025: Fantastic pastries etc. always delicious

22/08/2025: One of the best pastry shops in the area.

24/09/2025: Excellent meat, super friendly waiter. Paolo's grill was a truly huge portion and delicious. Thank you ❤️

24/09/2025: Paula is the best! Thank you for your service! Asiel Sarmie from Afghanistan :)

11/10/2025: The octopus sandwich was really good! The gluten-free sandwich was also excellent. Clean place and friendly staff, highly recommended!

08/10/2025: For me it was not a positive experience, I would not return.

13/09/2025: We were thrilled with the cuisine, service, and location at Calamate. We stayed in Gallipoli for 12 days, and we ate there four times. It was undoubtedly the best dinners of the entire trip. The appetizer selection—the burratina, the homemade orecchiette, and the bombette (which we tried breaded and baked here)—were all exceptional, as were the grilled red tuna and the pasta with scampi. The ingredients are excellent, and the price, in my opinion, perfectly in line with what's on offer. If you're in Gallipoli, it's worth a visit!

24/08/2025: Excellent food, a very beautiful and well-maintained location, but the access road is unpaved and unlit. The least pleasant aspect was the owner, or whoever seemed to be the owner. He was kind but not at all friendly; ordering with him was like running a marathon. He made it clear he had no time to waste, albeit politely. There was no opportunity to comment on the dishes or anything else related to the dinner. The waiters were very nice. As mentioned, the food was truly excellent, especially the orecchiette.

11/09/2025: Delicious food and delicious local beers! We'll be back!

01/09/2025: Really good and friendly service. Amazing food, really good prices even adding a bottle of wine.

08/03/2025: We had an aperitivo, ordering a medium platter for two. Excellent value, considering we ate and drank a spritz for €7.50 each. I recommend it, especially for the friendly staff!

30/09/2025: A cute little café with an adjoining restaurant! A pleasant place with friendly and attentive waiters! A wonderful moment overlooking the beautiful basilica!

24/09/2025: A great break after visiting the basilica. A pasticciotto, caffè leccese, or other specialties are worth a stop.

29/09/2025: We dropped in for takeaway pizzas but ended up enjoying the pizzas fresh out of the oven in the garden out front. Nice fresh ingredients on a thin crust perfectly cooked in the wood firef oven. Well priced.

11/09/2025: Pizzeria with good quality and well-made pizzas; does not offer table service

08/10/2025: Very cute and very cozy little cafe, with good variety of cookies and pasties. They have sitting outside and inside. People were very nice and patient. But the cookies tasted too sweet to us, Great location

06/10/2025: The desserts are good, though average, nothing more. The service, however, is poor: they're slow, confusing, and rude. All this fuels the problems with the usual crooks who come in without caring whoever's there first and want to be served right away.
