I migliori ristoranti in Lecce

20/12/2025: They have almost everything, I go there because it's very convenient as a newsstand and it's always well stocked.

15/06/2026: Excellent fried foods... high quality meats... and excellent pizza

06/04/2026: Well, what can I say? Eating at Chernobyl would have been healthier. Easter Monday, set menu for €25. We were sitting inside, there wasn't much room, the tables were crowded together, one person getting up could easily block everyone else's path. On the tables were small plates of rather shoddy cured meats, placed there who knows how long ago. They were also on tables where no one was sitting. The fried foods were the only decent thing, because they were definitely frozen. The first course was a sticky pasta dish with a sauce vaguely reminiscent of the one in the kindergarten cafeteria, disgusting, so much so that even the neighboring tables complained. The mixed grill was a total disaster. Burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. No salt, and it wasn't even on the table. We refused to eat dessert either. The NAS likes this element.

29/06/2026: I bought some bread with olives (black with bones??) and some semolina bread from this bakery. What can I say? I was unlucky, but I've never had bread so unpleasant to eat.

28/06/2026: Excellent, tasty, authentic products, made by those who know how to do it right, and at a super affordable price. Bread, pizza, focaccia, taralli, biscuits... there's nothing that will disappoint, everything is delicious. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. In my opinion, one of the best truly artisanal bakeries.

10/07/2026: Delicious lunch, excellent fresh fish and very well prepared. Polite and attentive service, and the staff was definitely thorough.

02/05/2026: Weekend of May 1st, group lunch, very large, restaurant full. Very good service, despite the large number of seats we were served very well. Kind owners and welcoming staff. The restaurant overlooks the Le Castella marina, beautiful seafront panorama. We didn't eat à la carte because the menu was agreed upon as we were a group, what we ate, appetizer and first course with fresh seafood, was well prepared, good wines. We will return to try more from the menu. Recommended.

13/07/2026: Quality is the key to this place. It's also beautiful to look at. Friendly staff. The food is plentiful and the ingredients are excellent. The coffee shop is second to none, including the ice cream.

22/06/2026: 5/5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent place! We tried some excellent burgers, really tasty and well-made. The place is very welcoming and offers a great advantage: there's plenty of space both inside and out, ideal for any occasion. Friendly staff and quick service. We'll definitely be back!

30/05/2026: Excellent service, delicious pastries, super friendly staff

29/05/2026: I've been coming to Galatina for years. This place is welcoming and makes me feel at home. The service is friendly and youthful. The pasticciotto is excellent, the best I've ever eaten... it's also served late at night.

17/05/2026: I'm updating my review for the new location. Good wood-fired pizza. Fair prices. Self-service. I preferred the previous location.

01/06/2026: Excellent pastries and friendly staff. It's a shame for the owner: witnessing an employee humiliated and berated in front of customers was embarrassing and unworthy of someone who should be running a business. A boss is known by how they treat their employees, not by how loudly they yell. If this is the atmosphere every morning, it's little wonder the staff seems to work with fear. Excellent products, but the human management definitely needs revising. A lesson in respect would do more good than any business management course. ★★☆☆☆

21/04/2026: Friendly and courteous staff. Very good pastries.

10/10/2025: I went to Svizi Cotti for lunch. There's nothing to complain about about the food, a truly wide selection for all tastes. The only thing I can say about desserts is that, aside from an apple pie and fried "pittule" with sugar, there's nothing else, and that's a shame. It's really not much. One or two cheesecakes, in my opinion, would give you that extra choice! Unfortunately, I have to say the atmosphere is very noisy. It's a place where you grab a quick bite and then leave, but at times, when it's really crowded, it becomes difficult to converse with the person sitting across from you. Regardless, I recommend it.

14/07/2025: Excellent food...the quality/price ratio is unmatched in the area. Great idea, well done!

26/07/2026: 👎🏻It's a very expensive experience, but it lacks adequate services. Parking is far away and expensive, and after parking, you have to take a shuttle to the beach. The beach is huge and very long, but there's only one bathroom for the entire area, too far for at least 80% of the people. There are no showers, except for one at the main entrance, which also requires a fee. 👎🏻 Furthermore, the price of an umbrella increases based on the distance from the entrance, but in my opinion, it's absolutely not worth it. 👎🏻 Compared to other facilities, this place offers nothing special. I personally strongly advise against it. 👎🏻

25/07/2026: Public land, you have to pay to get there. I mean, it's a dirt field used as a parking lot, filth everywhere, I pay €8 for parking, not even a fountain to rinse off the sand. Bar, no comment, rip-off prices, a beer that at the supermarket costs €1.10, here €6?? A spritz is €9?? This doesn't mean whoever manages it can't raise the prices, but this is authorized theft!! People staring at you, rude people and tourists, who knows you?? You think you're so smart... you're pathetic!!! Go to the public beach, bring everything from home, at least you don't have to see certain people. For goodness sake, we're losing our manners and respect... it's a total disgrace.

15/09/2025: Two hours—and I mean two hours—of waiting, and when it finally comes, the insult comes: three out of six items are missing, paid for and forgotten. The food, let's be clear, isn't the problem: good, with a varied and tasty menu. Two hours of waiting can still pass, albeit with difficulty, but discovering that, after so long, what we'd already paid for had been "forgotten" is a far greater affront than the slowness. It's not a matter of distraction, but of disrespect: the customer is not an optional extra to be treated lightly. The sore point, however, isn't limited to the wait or the inefficiency. What makes the experience truly indigestible is the attitude of the ladies at the counter: a lethal cocktail of rudeness, arrogance, and impoliteness that manages to sap even the last vestige of appetite. The feeling isn't of being welcomed, but barely tolerated, as if the customer were an intruder and not the very reason for the business. Bottom line: the food is good, but there's no fried food in the world worth two hours of humiliation and waiting. If patience were edible, I'd leave feeling full.

26/08/2025: Excellent food, a little small in the place as there is limited seating. Takeaway is more convenient.

08/03/2026: Welcoming atmosphere, we had very good pizza, pieces of horse meat in sauce, also very good

22/11/2025: Excellent professionalism...clean, good and friendly...but above all the pizza and not only that, is EXCELLENT...spectacle

11/10/2025: Very bad food, just a waste of products, poor service, typical tourist trap.

17/09/2025: A very elegant, welcoming, and refined restaurant with the renowned chef Peppe Macchia in the kitchen. Here you can find delicious and original dishes, seafood, and excellent wines and champagnes for an unforgettable and unique dinner. The cuisine is both seafood and meat. Recommended!
