"We got here upon a suggestion from locals. No regrets! It’s a simple restaurant offering in one side one of the best pizza we ever had in the south of Italy. You can customise a lot, you can ask, as we did, pizza stesa bene … which is not much Neapolitan style but rather roman style, thin and crispy. I asked a bianca with alici a fine cottura (better! and was like having a crostino romano. As a starter we had two tarallo fritto, one with burrata and capocollo di martina franca that was SUPER! My wife had Tarallo and mozzarella plus parma ham, excellent as well (but mine was better . We had a primitivo red wine, almost 15 degrees, that improved substantially our happiness. The restaurant also serves buns and pucce with hamburgers… forget standard style, these are 100% home made a-z. We say it passing by but were too full to try. Hope next time. Price… insignificant really. Only for locals apparently, no tourists around. We’ll come again! Thanks for serving us with a smile that only in Salento you could receive"

"So it’s august and hot here of course. Apparently I needed to tick a box on the fork website to get an outside table. .we asked for one ..you know when someone is faking being helpful..yup anyway .. “Inside is air con” Sat in a hot room, near the kitchen, with air conditioning that couldn’t be improved for us.. Ordered some wine..yup that was hot too! Not sure they cared until h about that either really. We have been in the area all this week. This was the worst meal. Why? It’s trying very hard to be different and making a mess of it..trying to be different is great but it’s not successful. Risotto with raw prawns doesn’t work..the arborio was too stodgy. Raw prawns don’t work..both in texture and taste with the risotto..too much lemon ..again why? The steak was poor quality..bad choice from me but just fancied a steak and chips with primitivo and chips were soggy..(cooked in olive oil..wow..how new and exciting…and yet utter rubbish…but when I cook potatoes in olive oil they crisp up… Bread was excellent.. Had to sit in the car between courses and couldn’t wait to leave. 137 ish euros. Wish we had been at il bastione as we were yesterday..that was faultless. This isn’t."

"I was staying in the adjoining campsite and they booked a table for me, I thought it was for the on site restaurant, but we were pointed in the direction of Food Pop which turned out to be a trendy restaurant. Very different for Southern Italy. There was a good selection on the menu, something for everyone and a decent wine list as well. The service was excellent, attentive, but not over the top. Food arrived timely and all drinks etc were delivered promptly. The food on the whole was good, I had tempura vegetables, the batter was a bit heavy for tempura and my wife’s pizza was a bit soggy. She did enjoy the antipasto of cheeses with jams though. Special mention to the strawberry cheesecake, which was not a slice of UK cheesecake, a bit deconstructed, but excellent. A good restaurant and good value for money."

"ESPERIENZA UNICAMAI SUCCESSO IN 26 ANNI ! E’ ferragosto e abbiamo prenotato un tavolo per 6 persone per le 21.30. Ci presentiamo puntuali e la serata parte bene perché la location è molto bella. Ci portano al nostro tavolo ed è isolato in fondo alla tenuta e ci fanno sedere sulle delle panche. Ordiniamo subito antipasti e primi ed il bere, Acqua e vino arrivano con comodo, ovviamente senza i bicchieri per il vino, ma dato che siamo in vacanza non ci agitiamo. Chiediamo più volte di portarci i bicchieri per il vino ma solo dopo circa mezz’ora e ulteriore sollecito la ragazza ce li porta. Per gli antipasti, invece, abbiamo aspettato precisamente 2 ore, alle 23.30 sono arrivati, Qualità discreta, niente di eccezionale. Iniziamo a riderci su con i tavoli affianco che sono nella nostra stessa situazione o chi messo ancora peggio, alcuni demordono e decidono di andarsene dato che l’attesa era diventata assurda. Noi temerari restiamo e aspettiamo con ansia anche i primi che ci arrivano uno alla volta verso le 00.30. La cameriera sempre molto gentile, veniva al tavolo imbarazzata per la situazione e senza darci delle tempistiche ai nostri solleciti. Pasta scotta, porzioni a dir poco ridotte e ognuno che mangia da solo. La situazione è imbarazzante, non mi era mai successo niente di simile. Ma non è finita, andiamo alla cassa a pagare e anche lì l’attesa si fa lunga perché il pos non prende bene. Finalmente arriva il nostro turno e facciamo presente al proprietario delle problematiche della serata, il quale al posto di scusarsi ci risponde pure in modo cafone che il grigliatore si era messo in malattia ed ha dovuto mettere al lavoro suo padre 80 enne. Sarebbe stato intelligente da parte sua cancellare alcune prenotazioni se non era in grado di gestirle. Mi sarei aspettato che almeno venisse al tavolo a scusarsi per l’attesa ma ha sempre mandato la sua cameriera a metterci la faccia, inoltre non ci ha scontato nemmeno un centesimo. UN FERRAGOSTO INDIMENTICABILE, NON METTETECI PIEDE."

"local Salento, located in a small alley, courteous staff but, slow in service and a little confused in the comande. Menù, purely Apulian with traditional dishes, the great pugliese appetizer with small quite good goats but the eggplant of cold eggplants, good instead the swordfish carpaccio with jam and frittini. excellent pici with parmesan cream served in the characteristic form. while the linguini to the ricci insapori and with very little curl. ears at the top of the turnip with anchovies not commentary, second fried of normal calamari, while the carpaccio squid calamari well grilled, with contour of potatoes, served cold wing. sweet, good bread with English cream. prices in the norm, you could however improve in the goto of some dishes, and painful note the dishes must be served all together and not to spicy. ?"
