10/10Amongst the best pasta dishes we’ve ever had. The sauce with the catch of the day pasta was sublime
Antica Posta • Owner
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly honored to hear that our pasta left such a memorable impression. The sauce with the catch of the day is one of our favorites too — fresh, simple, and full of flavor. We hope to welcome you back soon! **Antica Posta**

+4Lovely space inside and out. Food was creative and presented beautifully. Portions generous. We should have shared. Staff was helpful and ensured the fish was filleted to my partners liking. This restaurant is a little bit more expensive than others we tried in Monopoli. For the price they provide a high level of service and present everything very nicely. The dishes are a bit more unique than at other more traditional spots.

5/10Some dishes we had like the mackerel starter were good, but some were bland. The pannacotta dessert I had was over set and not like a pannacotta should be . Altogether we paid much more than anywhere else on our 11 days in Puglia even with a discount applied and the quality of taste didn’t match the cost. We also didn’t choose the fresh fish of the day which was more costly. Service was good. But the music playing was loud and I was sitting next to the speakers.

Gentile signora la sua recensione ci lascia alquanto perplessi. Ha speso 117 euro in due, con sconto applicato, consumando: 2 cocktail, 2 calici di vino, 2 antipasti, 2 secondi di cui uno con tartufo (il più costoso in menu), 2 dolci e acqua. Parliamo di materie prime di altissima qualità, selezionate con cura e lavorate con professionalità. Non stiamo parlando di cucina da mensa o da “posto” turistico qualsiasi dove si serve cibo mediocre a basso costo per soddisfare la massa. Nel contesto dei costi attuali, non solo alimentari ma anche di gestione, non ci sembra affatto un prezzo eccessivo, a meno che non siate abituati a pranzare con 20 euro dove la qualità, ovviamente, è proporzionata. Accettiamo le critiche costruttive – anche sul volume della musica, che verificheremo – ma screditare il lavoro e la qualità senza reale cognizione non è corretto né utile. Cordiali saluti,

8/10The food was delicious but too expensive.
Antica Posta • Owner
Gentile ospite, la ringraziamo per il suo feedback e siamo felici che abbia trovato il cibo delizioso, è il riconoscimento più bello per il lavoro e la passione che mettiamo ogni giorno. Per quanto riguarda i prezzi, comprendiamo che la percezione possa variare, ma riteniamo che siano più che giusti – e forse persino contenuti – rispetto alla qualità delle materie prime utilizzate, tutte locali, fresche, stagionali e a km 0, e alla cura artigianale che dedichiamo a ogni piatto. Speriamo di poterla accogliere nuovamente per farle vivere un’altra bella esperienza con noi. Cordiali saluti, Antica Posta

7.5/10Beautifully restored and spacious interior. Food was good but staff lacked empathy
Antica Posta • Owner
La ringraziamo per aver apprezzato l’atmosfera e la cucina. Ci dispiace se il servizio non ha soddisfatto le sue aspettative emotive: a volte, nella cura dell’efficienza, può sfuggire quel sorriso in più… ma siamo certi che il gusto abbia comunque parlato per noi.

Zucchini flower dish was excellent! Our other dishes were good to excellent. We would have liked to give 4.5 stars for the food. Service staff were excellent! We sat outside as the weather was perfect and it was really nice. Inside is stunning.

8/10What is there to say, other than a truly beautifully renovated building, nice winelist, plates generally far above average and original. Seabass was too dry unfortunately. Service was correct though not friendly. A smile makes such a difference and doesn’t cost anything

6.5/10
if you're hungry, don't go here!:)) Very small food portions. After we left the restaurant we were hungry:)) We paid €135 for 2 people without a bottle of wine... the presentation pictures are deceiving. I ordered octopus and he brought me baby octopus and 1 potato cut into 4:)) 18€
Antica Posta • Owner
Thank you for your time in posting this review.We would advise that, instead of writing "if you're hungry don't go here", we would have written that "in being that hungry I made a mistake in choosing the dishes" because our portions of pasta, as you could see with the tortello carbonara (5 tortelli x 30gr totalling 150g plus condiments) are very generous! You even didn't write that you chose to eat 2 local red PRAWN tartares, along with 1 tuna and porcupine scampi as a starter! All highest quality products! Regarding the "polipetto" (i.e. little octopus), the fact of calling it little octopus and not octopus should have made you understand that it is something valuable that cannot exceed 200gr; it undergoes 2 cooking procedures and the potatoes are not simple potatoes but they are cooked in the ash and covered in smoked paprika and saffron sauce! The photos represent our dishes and we do not assume that the same photos are published by customers who have paid like you.We are thankful for having chosen us.

What an amazing meal. We shared everything, the food was delicious and outstanding. Along with perfect service. Nothing rushed or too much to ask for. Think we chose really well which does help. Shared a Puliga sparkling wine white which for the money was perfect. Very happy couple.

6/10The place looks good and is nice. The food and service were not good. Workers were in rush and not giving much attention to customers. Good we choose was nothing special. The spaghetti not good. The fritura quite oily and without taste
Antica Posta • Owner
Thank you very much for choosing us. We are aware of the fact that we cannot be liked by everyone. We're sorry that our waiters seemed rushed but with a room of over 200 sqm plus outdoor space, walking quickly is the best way to serve everyone as best as possible. Regarding your disliking of our food, we can hereby tell you that we only use fresh, local and absolutely not frozen products of the highest quality. The specific dishes you have tasted reflect our culinary tradition: mixed fried fish and spaghetti with green beans, the essence of Apulia. However, we're very thankful for having spent some time in writing a review for us. We treasure our clients' review to improve our service. Wishing you a great day. Antica Posta Team

10/10Beautiful restaurant, gracious service and creative menu based on the bounty of the sea, this is a great place for dinner in Monopoli. Not in the heart of the old town, but a short walk to get there for an after dinner gelato or a stroll along the shore. Fresh fish of the day were offered and prepared correctly. Good wine list with a focus on Puglia (as it should), reasonably priced. In all, we had a memorable experience at Antico Posto.

10/10A beautiful and historic setting. The most outstanding meal of our holiday. Worthy of a Michelin star and one to watch for the future. Excellent and reasonable local wine list. Lovely staff.

Excellent food, local wine is great value and tasty. Had the fresh fish but the other courses were great as well. Very interesting place. Very quiet on a sunday evening, but i think that is only because it is new. Highly recommended
