    The Piazza
    Sandy M.

    Our first night in Bari and choosing La Cecchina did not disappoint ! A beautiful setting on a busy Piazza, lots of restaurants and bars, a lovely summer night sets the stage. Le Cecchina opens a bit later than other spots. We had a 7:30 reservation after being up 23 hours ( so tired) and were the first to arrive. Promptly greater by our waiter, we went with his suggestion of a light and local rose. Appetizers were a fabulous grilled octopus, a selection of local cheeses with grilled figs, and yes..... the bread. Oh Italy, I have missed you for many reasons, not the least of which is the bread. We also shared an amazing order of the whole wheat Orecchiette with fresh Tomatoes and Burrata. It was clean and simply amazing. Next up was a whole snapper, bakes with roasted with fresh veggies and Kalamata olives, grilled bream, and a ravioli dish, all wonderful. As tired as we were after an international flight and a very long train ride, it was a wonderful evening with a great atmosphere, great service, and great friends. We would go back in a heartbeat!

    Perfect food and Ambiente. We had a great evening with Pasta, sea Food, red vine and Tiramisu as Dessert. Service was nice as well. A little bit more expensive but worth Evelyn Cent.

    Il Rustico - Bread with sour cheese

    This is a hidden gem and a must dine …read more.. We visit Bari every year or so and on this visit we found this tiny restaurant near our rental. The prices were amazing - 8 euro for a full meal. Peroni beer and olives was the first course then followed by bruschetta (wonderful), a cheesy bread and 14? Pizza options . Every person gets their own pizza... and they weren't small pizzas either nor plain. My husband ordered a burrata and ham pie that was outstanding. My daughter ordered a vegetable pie with sausage but turned out to be hot dog (hmmm ?) and I ordered a delicious eggplant, squash and whatever other fresh veggies they happened to have around pie. As we are sitting there, the one fellow is slicing the fresh meats... the restaurant is beyond capacity and people are waiting outside and I can hear polish, Italian, British English and our own Itanglish languages flowing through the air. After the pie (which none of us could finish but they boxed up), we got a shot of limoncello and delicious vanilla sorbetto... (I mixed it ... it was really amazing.) If you visit Bari, please give this place a try. No regrets. Just get there by opening time as this establishment opens up and gets filled immediately. There's another 12 euro option that looked amazing with additional food but we couldn't eat all of that. (Although it looked like they left the limoncello bottle on the table.....) Great place!

    For 10€ you get: - an antipasti buffet…read more- a pizza - a large beer, soda or water - limoncello and lemon sorbet. You had me at antipasti buffet. Honestly I love this place for the experience. You sit down and semi-angry Italian men throw food in front of you for what seems like forever, and everything so delicious and freshly made. All you have to do is pick your pizza and whether or not you want antipasti, and if you don't want antipasti then don't bother coming here. My favorite pizza was the Krakow because of the speck and fresh creamy cheese. The atmosphere is definitely lacking but you get what you pay for, or in this case, more. You won't get a more authentic experience for your money in Bari.
