Impressive dining room with view over Carovigno square from the balcony. The 4 course tasting menu was overall very good (€100/person), but i would prefer an a la carte option too. Only 2 tables occupied on our visit - diners possibly put off by the price.

Absolutely fantastic experience! Perfectly executed 8 course tasting menu with wine pairing 👌🏽

Unless you can get the ONE outdoor balcony table overlooking the square, you’re in a stuffy, “fancy” dining room with elevator music (or silence), bright lights and white table cloths. The tasting menu is basic and nothing particularly interesting. Unless you’re staying in this village there’s no reason to come to this restaurant. I’m disappointed that this came Michelin recommended and we wasted a night of our trip with this very mediocre experience! Also, while we fully communicated my husband’s allergies and were assured all would be fine, he still got very sick. I don’t like posting reviews like this but we were really disappointed in the whole experience.

In ten days in Puglia (including dining at two other Michelin-starred restaurants) this is honestly the only memorable meal I have had here. Creative and delicious food, warm and genuine hospitality, unique and ambient surroundings. I was very glad I chose it for my birthday meal and I would choose it again on any occasion - 100% recommended.

The most beautiful restaurant in Puglia and the boat beautiful food too. The amount of talent in the family that runs this restaurant is incredible. Thank you guys. I hope we will be back again soon.

What a gem in the small and otherwise dusty town of Carovigno - the meal was extraordinary, clearly rooted in the region but with technique to rival any global city restaurant scene. The family staff were charming, and it felt welcoming like few Michelin star experiences. Highly, highly recommended for a special spot in Apulia.

Imaginative and delicious food, lovely service and a gorgeous room. A real find and highly recommend. Price point is fair for the amazing quality.

This restaurant was perfect, the waiters were so nice and professional and the ambient was perfect. The four of us were having 6 course dinner and every course was better than previous one. Highly recommend!

Best meal in Italy, if not ever! We had a fantastic experience,, when we arrived we were surprised to be given the balcony table, which was fabulous and helped make the evening a really special experience. The owner and his family were so welcoming and we sampled some beautifully presented and delicious dishes. I can see why the restaurant received a Michelin star. Thank you for the wonderful food and hospitality. We will be returning next time.

High end restaurant..very high quality cuisine

This cosy Michelin-starred restaurant is located in the square of a charming village in Puglia. There is nothing to complain about in terms of the food, the attentive service or the setting. On the other hand, the bill, even if the quality is good, is too high for Puglia.

This was the third time we have been. It remains one of our favourite restaurants. We were fortunate this time to be seated on the balcony which is among the best venues anywhere. The food is outstanding - clever, perfectly executed and delicious. Staff were highly knowledgeable, fully attentive and welcoming. It really is one of the great venues and so good to see it, rightly, on a Monday evening packed.
