I migliori ristoranti in Lecce

29/08/2025: The owner refused to give us an umbrella because we had small children and a stroller (which could be folded). He also said we couldn't open a small basin in the shade for our newborn. This is absolutely disgusting, insensitive, rude, and discriminatory behavior toward children. We have reported this to the authorities. Stay away from this place.

29/08/2025: The owner's service is terrible. Very aggressive and defensive when faced with a polite request. I don't recommend it at all. I don't understand how he retains his customers. Another owner should open the same location because it's beautiful.

14/08/2025: We stumbled upon this restaurant, drawn by the positive reviews. We ordered peppered mussels, maritati scattirisciati, and, after confirming the freshness of the fish, orecchiette with turnip tops and shrimp. The mussels arrived already opened—which immediately raised our suspicions. And in fact, they had no flavor and a mushy consistency; they were not fresh mussels. So much so that we left them, and the same waitress confirmed that, if someone in the kitchen tasted them, they were "unworthy" and would not be included on the bill. The first courses arrived: the maritati scattirisciati were completely runny, while the orecchiette contained no shrimp at all: just three small shrimp, which I'd dare say were frozen given their lack of flavor. The bill: these delicacies, two glasses of rosé wine, and a bottle of water for a whopping €50. The first courses were €30 for two, but we didn't have a receipt, so I don't know how the remaining €20 was split. To top off the evening, the POS terminal WASN'T WORKING, and we had to withdraw cash to pay for this dinner, risking hospitalization. HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED.

23/07/2025: Thanks to Chef Gianluca, we had the opportunity to appreciate the local flavors and his warm and professional customer service. Everything was excellent. We'll be back.

06/08/2025: I rarely write reviews, but this flatbread was the bomb. Perfectly cooked, large, and filling, and not to mention the price... Salmon and avocado (two very expensive ingredients) in a flatbread at an extremely affordable price. Recommended!

19/07/2025: Delicious vegan Salento piadina, with a truly special 10-grain dough, including the whole-wheat version. Local ingredients like fava beans and chicory, and premium plant-based ingredients like seitan. Giulia is kind, welcoming, professional, and happy to customize the piadinas on the menu. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend it! Thank you for the variety of vegan options; it's a pleasure to find such thoughtful and authentic places. See you soon!

01/08/2025: Increíblemente pintoresca ubicación, se cena en un impresionante acantilado, escuchando las olas que se estrellan debajo y mirando las estrellas. Tuvimos un hermoso festín a base de pescado local fresco por el precio de huevos revueltos y un DO en los EE.UU.

14/07/2025: Dopo avere goduto di un mojito al tramonto in questa location spaziale, abbiamo deciso di proseguire con una cenetta a base di pesce. Scelta azzeccata sotto tutti i punti di vista : qualità dei piatti, carta dei vini, simpatia dei titolari e del personale. Bravi! Consigliatissimo

30/06/2025: Jox Caffetteria serves excellent coffee. The staff was friendly and everything was fresh and tasty. Perfect spot for a relaxing break!

15/08/2025: The atmosphere is pleasant, surrounded by greenery and neatly maintained, though lacking any distinctive touches. The staff is courteous and helpful, with overall service that's accurate and punctual; nothing surprising, but still respectable. The cuisine, however, leaves something to be desired: the dishes are rather predictable, with flavors that aren't particularly punchy and a certain "standard menu" feel. The portions are adequate, but they lack the sense of generosity and warmth typical of a true agriturismo. The location is pleasant and quiet, a short distance from Otranto, but it doesn't convey a strong identity. In conclusion, Agriturismo Li Cutì is a decent choice if you're looking for a risk-free lunch or dinner, but it doesn't offer any particular reason to return.

14/08/2025: The setting is pleasant, surrounded by greenery and well-kept, decent but not particularly flashy. The staff is friendly and helpful, with generally attentive and proper service; nothing exceptional, but certainly decent. The food, unfortunately, was mediocre: the preparations seem a bit uninspired, the flavors lack personality, and the cuisine seems somewhat standardized. The portions are adequate, but lack the warmth and richness one would expect from an authentic agriturismo. The location is decent: pretty, certainly quiet, and not too far from Otranto, but overall lacking in character. In short, Agriturismo Li Cuti is a decent, reliable place if you're looking for a meal without surprises, but it doesn't really stand out.

01/09/2025: An almost brand new hotel with a gas pump and convenience store within the building. The customer service is off the charts, the rooms are beautiful, and the food and coffee are fantastic! I highly suggest you stay over!

28/08/2025: Excellent hotel. Clean rooms and excellent breakfast. Excellent location for reaching the Ionian and Adriatic beaches. Friendly staff.

24/05/2025: Very characteristic and friendly place.

16/03/2025: Very good and light pizza, great prices, fast service

15/06/2025: Kindness is their real success. Really very kind people. The food is prepared well, quickly and is very good. Well done!!!

31/05/2025: Place not suitable for vegetarians/vegans. Entered with enthusiasm, left with disappointment. I read "100% vegan line" and then I discover that the vegan burgers are cooked on the same plate as the meat. No, it's not a joke. I think it's right to point out that offering a vegan line also implies avoiding contamination, otherwise we can't talk about truly vegan dishes. It's a question of respect for those who have chosen a vegan lifestyle for ethical, environmental or health reasons.

14/07/2025: Non avevamo prenotato, abbiamo dato il cognome e dopo pochissimo tempo abbiamo avuto il tavolo, nonostante fosse sabato. Servizio veloce ed efficiente , ricambio continuo di gente . Tutto molto buono, abbiamo preso una capricciosa bianca, polpo in pignata e spaghetti con le cozze e le bevande . Da ritornare sicuramente.

12/07/2025: Tutto ottimo. Servizio celere e grande cortesia. Buona sial la pizza sia i primi. Polpo in pignata molto buono. Da ritornarci

03/06/2025: We happened to be passing by and were thrilled. Fernando, the head waiter, gave us great advice and we trusted him. The octopus in a pot was exceptional. We will return

17/05/2025: Fantastic experience, great food, even the kids cleaned everything!!! Congratulations!! When there is a chance we will definitely come back! Very kind lady.

29/08/2025: We've had the pleasure of dining at this beautiful agriturismo several times and have always had a wonderful time. The dishes are fantastic, refined, and of the highest quality. The location is breathtaking.

25/08/2025: I don't review the rooms because I didn't stay. I didn't like the food; it wasn't to my taste. The place was nice.

23/07/2025: ho prenotato con the fork, piatti super abbondanti, anche antipasto. Personale cordiale e disponibile. Tavoli all aperto con vista

11/07/2025: Semplicemente, bravissimi!! Terzo anno di seguito che durante le nostre ferie estive veniamo una sera a cena all' agriturismo San Martino. Riconfermo pienamente l' ottima recensione degli anni scorsi. Materie prime di altissima qualità, molte prodotte in casa. Ottimo servizio. Pomodori secchi, mai mangiati così buoni. Eravamo in 11 e i giudizi sono stati umani!! Complimenti! Ovviamente per noi , consigliatissimo.

26/08/2025: The table was messy. Not clean. Outside of the restaurant they have food that you can’t order. On the table there wasn’t any olive oil, salt, pepper or any seasoning at all. Only thing on the table was corks from wine? We waited about an hour for our food. By the time our food came we lost out appetite. Slow service and the servers weren’t even paying attention. We ordered pasta carbonara, lasagna and pasta pomodoro. Also the restaurant smelt like something was burning. The server accidentally brought 2 knives instead of a fork and knife. The pasta pomodoro was not good, parmesan on side was warm and without flavor. Carbonara was cold but somewhat good. Lasagna was good and flavorful. Overall i do not recommend the service, food and atmosphere.

25/08/2025: From starters to desserts, the perfect flavors that distinguish local cuisine. An ideal stop during your holiday tour. A must-visit.
