Lovely restaurant and attentive staff. Maybe more vegetarian options on the menu would be nice.

We loved the food and wine! There were many good options but we had the snapper and the sirloin, after we had an appertivo (the club sandwich). Such great flavors. Service was a little slow but was great up until the end. We were trying to pay the bill and asked if we could tip since we enjoyed everything, and our waiter responded “we don’t do that in Italy, you just pay the bill” which we found fairly rude. I’ve been to Rome, Milan, and Florence where I’ve always been able to tip. So just a note to not assume that guests haven’t been elsewhere in Italy/around the world or be standoffish when they’re trying to compliment the restaurant.. definitely hurt the vibe a bit.

Good food and cocktails. Friendly and efficient service. Very few other guest therfore not very vobrant. The roof garden is nice and cool on a hot day however the promised view of the old town of Lecce is just not there

Lack of information … Turns out the roof top which is why I booked is closed and they did not bother to clarify this for me, When I reached there all the staff could do was try to point out that it was my fault for not noticing when there was no clear indication at the time of my reservation

This was a very unpleasant experience. While planning a trip to Lecce, I booked a table for aperitivo on the rooftop terrace with a view, since this is their main selling point (according to reviews, nothing else was noteworthy). Upon my arrival I was offered a table with no view enclosed on three sides like a cubicle and was told that all tables with a view were booked for groups. When I said that I had booked a table with a view a month ago, I was offered... another table without a view and heard a poker-faced reiteration that all tables with a view were booked for groups, without so much as an apology. I left. If you are looking for a place to have an aperitivo, spare yourself the unpleasant experience and go straight to Alibi (as I did eventually). While not a rooftop, it is just in front of the beautiful Santa Chiara church, the service is incomparably friendlier, and this is where the locals go.

Quite ridiculous - on the website a totally different wine list than in the restaurant. At the restaurant the sommelier says the list on the website is unfortunately outdated. A wine that costs 80€ on the website is now 150€. Sommelier says unfortunately not his fault and cannot go lower. Bad management and poor customer service. We left without having dinner as we wanted to drink one wine specifically. Avoid this place at all cost, typical tourist trap.

Food taste was ok, but portion very small. Service ok, but not outstanding. Atmosphere good, nice place to be. Very expensive for what it’s offered and don’t worth it

On arriva! Staff were busy doing other things. Wine we ordered after 15mins wasn't available so bad to choose more expensive wine. Staff were very unattentive until later when I sent my meal back as Tina wasn't cooked to my preference(although one asked me). No views despite being in roof terrace. Dull and uninviting.. Wouldn't recommend

They didn’t get my reservation and The restaurant opens at 7.30pm, not at 6.30pm as it is written on TripAdvisor. There we got 20% discount but they just give it to us because I show them the confirmation of TripAdvisor. The price was still very high, the food was nothing special, so you pay for a roof view than for food. We were quite disappointed. There are many other restaurants close by that are better.
