Working out of a cave as most places do on this hillside, the ambiance was warm and mild in a light colored, well lit cave. We ordered a glass of the local wine to compliment our pizza; Neapolitan style, with local ingredients; wow! Pairs with a local red wine and a delicious salad we were thrilled. This can easily be our daily lunch place.

Old Homestead Steakhouse opened in 1868 in New York City Tadish Grill in San Francisco opened in 1849 Musso and Franks opening was in 1919 in Los Angeles, CA Today, Il Terrazzino's Restaurant in Matera, Italy opened in the early 1600's. Now we're talking about a restaurant that opened up over 900 years ago and their menu and food is still ridiculously good! I guess their food had had to be good to stay open almost 1,000 years! The views from our balcony table were amazing. The characters serving us were entertaining and our lunch was 1,000 years old fantastic. We opened with a Tonno Salad (Tuna) that was great. I had their specialty of the house pasta which was - FUSILLI AL TEGAMINO with sausage and mozzarella, quick baked pasta with sausage ragù. After you eat a bowl of this, you absolutely know you're in Italy. The beauty of I'll Terrrazzino Ristorante is just how good it is and not being a tourist spot, and maintaining its integrity for 1,000 years! This was a once in a lifetime experience.

We did not come for pizza but for many vegetarian dishes , they have 4-5 different minestrones very thick with many options such as grains and chick peas or eggplant and of course the classic mix . Also big nicoise style salad w tuna and a mushroom tagliatelle w house made pasta. We had a couple super nice waiters this is true just about everywhere in Italys south. We split everything plus a nice tartufo de pizzo chocolate hazelnut ice cream roll which is a Calabrian specialty ., 50 euro w wine out the door for 2. I may never return to California ;-/

We found a parking lot nearby and walked over. It took us a few try, but we ended up where we belonged. Casa Pinto is nestled in the streets and alleys of Locorotondo, so it'll be fun and adventurous to look for especially first timers. The front of the restaurant had quite a few tables fully booked and their pizzas looked delish. We asked to be seated upstairs, so we had to go to the back alley for the stairs. It was more quieter up there, but eventually people started to roll in. We didn't know dinner for Puglians would be so late! The fun starts around 9pm! We ordered a vegetable starter that wasn't to our liking. The marinated eggplants was a bit too vinegar strong and no flavors with the onions. On the other hand, their pizzas were on point! I ordered the Casa Pinto and my friend ordered a Pesto one. It is hands down one of the best pizzas I've ever eaten! I've never been a fan of red sauce, but I guess the Americans butchered it! I loved loved loved my pizza. We both ate half only and brought the rest home for tomorrow's breakfast. It was so good that we came back the next night, but we had it back at the Trullo villa. Love! Grazie Mille!
