    We had relatively small appetites and ordered the seafood starter for 2 which was lovely. Knowledgeable and very helpful staff who had an English menu and spoke English

    Food delicious and the staff were very helpful. It was a very hot day and it was lovely to be in the cool cellar. A perfect evening.

    The restaurant was easy to find. The staff took time to explain all the dishes & made great recommendations for the wine. We shared the mixed starter which was delicious as was my tuna with fresh spaghetti. My husband enjoyed the entrecôte steak. It was very good value & we would highly recommend trying the restaurant.

    The food was just awful. The vegetarian starter tasted practically nothing. The risotto with safran looked and tasted like bad porrige. Very disappointing as they had good reviews. Very expensive as well.

    It felt like we found somewhere the locals would be eating. Authentic and excellent food with very professional and friendly staff. Highly recommended. We ate there two nights during our 4 night stay

    Beautiful restaurant, but despite our reservations, we were shoved in a back room that lacked the ambiance of the beautiful rooms in the main area. Felt we were treated with disdain because we weren’t Italian. He other tables definitely received better consideration in service and seating. Food was excellent.

    How much did we like it? Heading back tomorrow for a second night! Pork in an amazing mustard sauce was my highlight. My wife had a pasta in a rich truffles sauce with guanciale. Both were top class dishes plus had some great recommended wines

    We had an excellent, quite inexpensive meal at this restaurant, with three friends. We could not believe the size of the portions, and everything was tasty. It was also quiet, unlike many other places, so we could actually hear one another talk!

    Small and cozy place, excellent service. Food was very good, quiet atmosphere, good wine options. It is close to the center of Lecce, a short walk fron Santacroce.

    Great moment. The food very good. Just a little wait when we want something. But the dinner was very good. I will return a day if I return on Lecce on the future

    We booked for 8pm and arrived a little early to find we were the first guests and we received a great welcome and introductions to the special dishes and the wine choices all of which proved to be excellent. Within 45 minutes the place was buzzing but the staff were still attentive and full of interesting info about the historical premises. A lovely evening and excellent food.

    Small but well-balanced menu with daily specials. Food was well cooked and presented. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lecce has a lot of restaurants, I would recommend visiting this one.

    What a superb meal and exceptional find on Fork. When you're in a town you don't know, you would easily walk straight past this small restaurant. We ordered the seafood and vegetable antipasto platters and every ingredient was authentic and tasty. The desserts were 'to die for'. The owner and chef partner are welcoming and talented and the young waiter was very friendly, helpful and spoke very good English. Highly recommend this hidden gem.

    The food is great, original and well cooked. The restaurant is quite fancy which means it is not for all kind of wallets but it worth it . A good note for the wine too.

    I went to have dinner with my partner who is celiac. They proposed us to seat inside rather then outside and we unfortunately chose to have our dinner outside. Not privacy at all, a lot of people walking and cars literally next to our table. I went inside to pay and the atmosphere looked very cozy and warm. The taste of the dishes was nice. For our personal taste the gluten free pasta was overcooked and my pasta was slightly undercooked. The service was okay as well as the price.

    Nice location, friendly staff, average food quality and average value for money... Basically just your average place. The location of s very nice though, in a quiet spot really close to chiesa di santa croce.

    A really good place downtown in Lecce, they serve top quality food in a pretty place. If you come from abroad you are going to enjoy it for sure. We look forward to come back soon.

    Fabulous food, wine and service. The current 50 % off deal makes it a do not miss restaurant. It was not very full which was weird as at lunchtime we had seen it packed with Italians. Always a good sign!

    We were 5 people. Each of us ordered a different starter and main course. Nobody was happy. Starter : "anipasto misto mare" average. Spaghetto con tonno fresco e bottarga was tasteless. Similarly raviolo di bottarga. The meat was tough. It is a pity because the place is nice, service good.
