1. La Strada Del Vino Wine Bistrot

NZD46Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserQuaint little wine bar on a side street near Piazza Sant'Oronzo. Proprietor and staff very friendly and attentive. Warm, comfortable and close seating area that encourages conversation with fellow guests. enjoyed a small (singolo) taglire misto which was plenty for two to enjoy for antipasto. we were going to go elsewhere for dinner but after the meat and cheese decided that we weren't all that hungry still and instead ordered appetizers of fave e cicoria and melanzane parmigiana. In particular the parmigiana was excellent with a beautiful homemade tomato sauce. Overall a very nice experience.

4. A Locanda Tu Marchese

NZD43Reservation AvailableLatin American

TheForkUserThe restaurant sits within a beautifully preserved 17th-century residence in Matino’s historic center, offering an enchanting, historically evocative ambiance.For our appetizer, we shared the Entrée della Locanda, a generous selection featuring crispy fried bites, local cured meats, and artisanal cheeses. For the main course, we opted for Salento-style skewers and a tender slice of horse steak, both expertly grilled to perfection. As a side, we enjoyed a portion of crisp fries.Our meal was accompanied by natural water and a bottle of the house red wine, which complemented the flavors. Every detail, from the warm hospitality to the authentic local cuisine, made for an unforgettable dining experience

5. Osteria Della Divina Provvidenza

10. TerreAmare Agriturismo

NZD81Reservation AvailableWestern-style

11. Corte del Fuoco ristorante

NZD42SeafoodOpen Late

TheForkUserReally good food with a special flair and twist from the chef. Service was excellent, very professional and warm. The location is perfect for a small borgo in Lecce. Highly recommend it. We will be returning!!!

12. La Sapore

NZD38Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserGreat decor, very intimate setting in a backyard style garden. Classic traditional food cooked very well. Everything you would expect from a Trattoria, with style.

13. L'Obelisco Ristorante Pizzeria

NZD33Reservation AvailableFast Food

TheForkUserWe like it here, the food is always authentic Italian, Very nice place to eat, never had a bad meal, and the owner always remembers his customers… from the outside you wouldn’t think it is as big as it is! We will go back a few times before returning back to UK , but we will always be back here…

14. Agriturismo San Martino

NZD27Reservation AvailableLatin American

TheForkUserMolto bello location top

15. Pescheria Con Cottura

NZD35Reservation AvailableSeafood

TheForkUserThis was a new experience for us. The staff was very ready to explain how one could either pick their fish and method of cooking or one could choose something for their ready menu. The food was delicious. An amuse bouche of fried anchovies was light and tasty. We chose some fried sardines as an appetizer. Our dishes were orecchiette with octopus and pasta with mussels, ( already out of their shells) Very good. The restaurant is very pleasant. I would categorize it as casual, white tablecloth. Would definitely return.

16. Tenuta Pellegrino

NZD107Western-style

TheForkUserWe have eaten here several times and we always get excellent food and service. It is run by a lovely local family and I would highly recommend itElizabeth Jessop

17. Masseria Stali

NZD50Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserReally poor, some of the food was obviously reheated Nd the pasta my partner ordered was overcooked. Would recommend just staying in Lecce as much better

18. Li Risi

NZD54Western-style

TheForkUserNice place and great service! Special dishes, maybe to review the prices a little high compared to the quantity. Anyway, nice evening!

19. Agriturismo Li Calizzi Arte e Natura

NZD54Reservation AvailableLatin American

TheForkUserThis is a really tasteful agriturismo, with amazing location, food, wine and service. Fresh local ingredients marvellously prepared and the price is honest. We tried different antipasti and 2 primi piatti and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is peaceful and this is a plus for me. A gem in Salento!

20. Mangiafueco

NZD23Reservation AvailableOpen Late

TheForkUserThis is our favourite bracceria, we drive 30 minutes down from Ostuni for it. The outdoor seating area is under a stone arched passage in the old town with an angled view of the facade of a beautiful church with huge columns as a backdrop. it is like a movie set. The service is always excellent! And the meat! Many different types of bombette, sausage, pork, chicken and of course beef! Even though I have been many times, the experience of selecting your dinner from a butchery display case never gets old.
