One of my best meals in Julia. Don’t even hesitate to make a reservation here. The chef starts by walking around to greet the entire restaurant and tries to make a connection with every table. The menu can be a tasting if you’d like, but I opted for the à la carte choose your own adventure style. especially since I don’t like desserts, I thought this was a much better value around €20 per dish. Every dish was a stand out. I particularly loved the sea urchin and mussel caccio e pepe. The kitchen uses local and seasonal ingredients and has beautiful presentation. The service was always on point, I never felt neglected or othered because I was a tourist. There was a good mix of Italians and English speaking tables. You do have to budget about three hours for the entire meal, as there’s plenty of time in between courses to digest. But, overall, if you’re looking for a really great meal to understand how food from this region can be upscaled and elevated, you must try eating at Duo. Grazie!

Our romantic dinner at DUO Ristorante was an unforgettable culinary journey. We opted for the eight-course Verde Mare tasting menu with wine pairings, and it was such an adventure from start to finish. Our sommelier and waiter, Sebastian, was incredibly knowledgeable and professional, guiding us expertly through the pairings. The chef’s welcome dish, a collection of seven amuse-bouches, set the tone for an evening full of delightful surprises. The sweet lemon dish with capers and anchovy paste was especially unexpected, while the amberjack was a true standout. The atmosphere was elevated by unique sculptures on each table—ours was a charming bulldog named Carlos, adding a playful touch to the refined setting. We couldn’t have asked for a more memorable evening!

I’m a vegetarian trying the tasting menu. Almost half of them were tailor-made vegetarian special dishes, incredibly delicious.

I was the first to be seated of the night. I appreciate smaller fine dining restaurants and Duo has a very cozy ambience. The maitre d’s were excellent throughout the night. I went with the full tasting menu and a glass of wine. Each course was unique, visually pleasing, and flavorful. Courses were well-paced and explained thoroughly. I think the price is very reasonable for the experience you get.

The chef at Duo was amazing! He was very personable, treated us at our table and explained Apulian cuisine and the various. dishes. His "welcome dish" from the chef consisted of five wonderful little starters or 'amuse bouche' as they are often called. Just amazing! The two pastas we had were just on point, and our seafood plate after was perfectly prepared. Duo's menu is very creative but honors the flavors of Apulian. It was a wonderful meal.

Not the cheapest but quality was very good. We had the 6 course taster menu with paired wines. I loved every dish, but my wife wasn’t keen on two of the starters. Standard was fantastic but these 2 weren’t to her taste. We had a chat with the chef which we both really enjoyed. If you can afford it I recommend, if you’re on a budget it’s not for you.

Small restaurant with a great service team and interesting menu (degustiazione)! Nice combination of traditional resources and new and creative styles of presentation. Calm and beautiful dining room. The chef and the team are dedicated to create an amazing evening for everyone. After our menu the chef stayed over 30 minutes on our table and we had a great conversation about European cuisines and the characteristics of the Apulian one!
