After walking a very long distance from the new town and getting fully lost in the winding streets of the old town, we just wanted a simple, light lunch with some booze. Ordered a sparkling rose, a beer, bar olives and two different tapas style appetizer samplers typical of the Puglia region. My platter had: crostini with bruschetta, mystery cheese (I never learned what this was!) that tastes like queso fresco with a pickled beet jawn on top, mini eggplant lasagna, a pizza fritta pocket, grilled cheese, meatballs, and buffalo mozzarella. BF's platter had: caprese tomato/mozzarella combo with seasoned olive oil and side of pesto, meatballs, grilled cheese and a quinoa salad. Both platters were fresh and tasty. Perfect portion for a light lunch and a true taste of the region. Perhaps a tad overpriced since it was a bit touristy here, however, I think I preferred this app sampler to that of La Uascezze and I loved that place, so it was worth it. Plus, it was a great way to kill a few hours and look out at the sea.

Wonderful staff, stunning view, inexpensive and great food and drinks. Highly recommended.read more

I visited this place on Saturday at lunch time and I loved it. The place is gorgeous (and ancient…read moreice house with a stunning view over the Itria valley), the staff is very friendly and the food is delicious. The owner let us visited the whole building. He has done a lot of work by himself and the result is very nice and tasteful. They serve typical food from the region at lunch time. We had a huge antipasti with delicatessen and cheeses, parmigiana, a black rice pudding and fava beans with green vegetables. We could choose 3 home made pasta dishes (primi) and 3 types of meat as "secondi" (main courses). We were too full for a dessert but the food was overall very fresh and excellent. I explained to the staff that I can't eat any dairy so they adapted the recipes they served me on purpose! I'm pretty sure they could also adapt for vegan and vegetarian options, as the main ingredients in the menu were vegetables!! The choice of wine was excellent, the owner knows very well how to combine wine and food. They explained to us that they will start to offer breakfast and aperitivo (with fresh drinks and food) in the coming weeks. I would definitely recommend to go!

The pastas were just ok - overly cheesy so you couldn't taste the other ingredients as well. The calamari was way oversalted. Think someone accidently salted it twice! The grilled veggies were good.

What was most disappointing though, was that the staff made us feel unwelcome. We quickly paid the bill and had an after-dinner drink elsewhere just to avoid being ignored/snubbed.
