"Small family run restaurant with amazing food. Very fresh, prepared on spot next to the seaside. The taste of the prepared dishes was very good, just as home made typical pugliese. What amazed me was their wines, which I found very good (especially the rose)."

"We arrived early today, but who great us welcomed us and invite to sit even if they weren't ready yet as the owner went to shop for the special of the day. As he arrived, she showed us I lovely case of fresh pick porcini mushroom. We order lovely fave beans pure with grill curnalietti pepper and tropea onion pickle,amazing fried fresh calamari, and grill octopus also very nice. For many pasta with porcini and pasta with mussel perfect executed. All pair with local wine. And we finish with caffe with ice and almond syrup and homemade sweets tarallini with roast almond. Definitely recommend"

"Absolutely delicious food. With not much open for lunch in October we gave this place a go. We could not have been more delighted with the food, warm welcome and service. Among the best pasta and seafood we’ve ever had (and that’s a lot!). The cavaletti on the rocks is something special, as are the non meat meatballs"
