    A perfectly decent restaurant conveniently located near Bari Centrale (the main train station). I'm amazed that other reviews say nothing about the strong American influence here: all evening, songs by Bruce Springsteen, the Eagles and similar artists are playing, the beer list features American brews, and the menu mixes local staples with lots of burgers. In fact the whole vibe is kind of "hip bar," with an acoustic guitar suspended from a column and various pop culture images scattered throughout. Nothing wrong with any of this, but several reviews make the restaurant sound like a classic Italian mom-and-pop place, which it isn't at all. Very friendly staff. The interior is appealing (as described above) but the street outside is frankly dreary and scruffy - hard to avoid when near a train station. Still, a reasonable choice if you need to dine in that area.

    Pasta was really good, but the steak was like a chewing gum… and the red wine was also excellent (Primitivo) Service very slow but nice

    Both the ambiance, the food, and the service were excellent. The portions were reasonable, the wine was very tasty. We had a very nice evening with friends.

    Despite some confusion over my drinks (due to my poor Italian), the service was good, and I would recommend the food I had (the pacchero first course and tagliata entrecote 2nd course)
