    The food & service were excellent! Our only complaint was that the music was very loud and strange - loud enough to make conversation difficult and odd enough to have the music selection be the topic we were trying to discuss.

    We had a fantastic dinner with the “gourmet tasting starter” and a fantastic wine. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant was really great! We would definitely recommend the restaurant.

    Excellent food and very good wine selection. The only restaurant in Cisternino with surprisingly good and adequate background music. Simple place with a good style. Recommended.

    Really beautiful and elegant room, top quality food and service. Overall, it was an excellent experience. BUT - while the food was excellent, there was a definite lack of creativity. All offered could be found on many menus in Puglia. When dining at this level, I do expect some delightful surprises...they were not present here. AND - I had reserved with a promotion from The Fork of 50% on the food portion of our order. When they realized this, they brought a second, more limited "The Fork" menu and informed ius that we could order anything from the primary menu, but.the promotion only applies if the item is on The Fork menu. To management I say, don't offer a promotion that limits the guest and makes them feel like a second class citizen. It is better to offer a smaller discount and the full experience.

    a nice fusion of tradionnal italian food and more modern approach the beef carpaccio was delicious the spaghetti with pistaccio sauce has just the right amount of pistaccio taste. The ravioli a la buffal were delicious the cheesecacke with figs was excellent and the lemon sorbet was tasty and creamy

    The restaurant is in a very nice little street. The food is amaizing. We took the ravioli and we recommand it. The atmosphere is good with little lights.

    Food and wine choices fantastic.... but restaurant wasn't ready to open until 8pm and we had booked for 7:30pm, it was empty in the restaurant but we got sat right in front of the toilets. We had to chase the for our bill at the end 3 times.... Maybe we just got it on a bad night.

    Lovely place to dine, down a cute street. Friendly service. Boys had lamb chops and a burger which they liked. Lamb chops were just that with no sides, burger came with fries. My husband had the meat rolls which were good. My issue is with the fresh fish ‘catch of the day’. I was offered lobster or scorpion fish. I asked roughly how much lobster would be (30€) and said that’s too much. Was then suggested scorpion fish. This came with mixed with tomato pasta with the remnants of the fish on a separate plate (not much there just a few bits to pick at). The fish was a little bland and overwhelmed by the sauce. When it came on the bill at 36€ I felt like I’d been completely had, since I clearly thought 30 was too much. Shame really as the rest was fine. Not worth the trip advisor rating as overpriced compared to others in the area but fine.

    Bellisimo! Pugliese cuisine done to perfection. Every menu item was high quality and exceeded expectations for a hard-to-find- local Trattoria.
