La Lampara - Speisekarte

genuine dishes, family-run service, top quality price, fresh fish. typical service from trattoria

Restaurant does not look of much, but once you enter, you feel this is right spot. Simple, but cozy and good, tasty dishes. Best fish and seafood. Nice, smiling staff. Very, very fair prices.

informal place on the seafront, tables both inside and outside, very kind waiter, service quite fast. dishes in general good but I expected them a more abundant fried trattoria style so much so. quality/price ratio adequate.

fresh fish, the first dishes leave a little to desire. the excellent fry, the service very slow,considering we were in few. the girl who served us, very kind and polite. right price. The overall vote can be improved and there are the basics.

fresh fish cooked at the moment. simple but well maintained service. great choice from the menu. courteous and helpful staff. Spartan tables but well organized. kitchen open from noon until afternoon. to try the baked cream. excellent value for money.

Cheap and cheerful seafood pasta, fritto misto etc in the cafe plus fresh fish from the wet fish counter to buy and take away. The red shrimps are really sweet, gorgeous. Interesting decor....easy parking. Small gelateria almost next door has lovely icecream.

family-run premises with a simple and homely environment in a super position, right in front of the sea. fresh fish and abundant portions. excellent cavatelli, but also appetizers and frying. the patient waitress, kind and nice, despite being alone and there was the fillet!

Portions were appropriate for lunch and the fish was fresh with just a light coating of batter. A litre of local white wine was a mere 5 euro. Overall, we thought it good value and we'll be back to buy some sea bass from the fresh fish counter.

We were looking for a typical apulean dinner. Low cost as it looked from premises and service and table dressing, but hoping for genuine local professional expertise. The wine (of the house) was cheap, indeed, but really low quality with a hue of toxicity. Not italian standards, lest apulian high level quality. The pasta dishes were ok for pasta standards, insufficient for presentation and cooking. If you want to taste what li guine cozze e vongole are, eat somewhere else. Too much salt added, ok for mussels, still a lot of water in the pasta. Bearable. Grilled swordfish was ok, not enough flavours added. Frittura mista eas ok. Top of the bottoms was grilled octopus eith fries. Octopus was n...
