Ristorante nella via principale di Polignano, locale bello e curato, servizio presente e veloce, il cameriere chw prendeva le comande esaustivo e simpaticissimo, ci vorrebbero più camerieri come lui. Il cibo ottimo, pesce crudo e fresco.

Pranzo ed esperienza ottima. A partire dall'accoglienza, gentilissima, con delle bollicine di benvenuto offerte dalla casa. Qualità superlativa in tutti i piatti ordinati, dagli spaghettoni ai frutti di mare alla frittura mista di mare. Posto d'onore all'insalata di mare. Per concludere ci sono stati offerti dei biscottini per chiudere il pasto. Personale gentilissimo ed attento. Prezzi onesti ed in linea, ma il plus dell'accoglienza e della premura non ha prezzo. Consigliatissimo!

Grazie alle altre recensioni abbiamo scoperto questo ristorantino nel cuore di Polignano. Pesce freschissimo crudi ottimi, piatti del giorno della cuoca strabuoni, personale simpatico. Consiglio se siete alla ricerca di crudi.

Un'esperienza da replicare senza dubbio alcuno. Il locale ha saputo conquistarci con la sua atmosfera straordinariamente affascinante, caratterizzata da un'eleganza raffinata e accompagnata da una gradevole colonna sonora in sottofondo. Il personale, altamente attento alle esigenze dei clienti, ha contribuito a rendere il nostro soggiorno ancora più piacevole. L'accoglienza è stata calorosa, con un aperitivo di benvenuto composto da un flûte di bollicine, olive e taralli, un gesto che abbiamo particolarmente apprezzato. Nonostante la tentazione del pescato del giorno, abbiamo optato con entusiasmo per il menù degustazione di pesce al costo di 45€ a persona, escluse le bevande. Questo eccezionale percorso gastronomico ha abbracciato antipasto, primo, secondo, sorbetto e dolce, e al termine del pasto, ci siamo ritrovati soddisfatti e appagati. Il vino che abbiamo scelto per accompagnare la nostra esperienza culinaria è stato il top, uno Chardonnay locale di indiscutibile qualità. Due calici di questo vino hanno arricchito ulteriormente la tavola, sottolineando la bontà delle portate proposte. Dopo l'antipasto, primo,secondo abbiamo gustato un ottimo sorbetto e dolcetto tiramisù incluso nel menù degustazione. La coccola finiale è stato l'omaggio della casa, un bicchiere di vino novello con i cantucci da inzuppare al suo interno. Assolutamente gradito. In definitiva, dall'inizio alla fine, abbiamo avvertito una sensazione di accoglienza e "coccola" che ha reso il nostro momento speciale. I piatti, preparati con maestria e utilizzando pesce fresco e ingredienti di prima qualità, sono risultati irresistibilmente deliziosi. Raccomando vivamente questo locale a chiunque desideri vivere un'esperienza gastronomica di alta qualità, in un ambiente elegante e accogliente.

Siamo stati in questo ristorante sia a pranzo che a cena e ogni volta è stata una bellissima esperienza. Piatti davvero deliziosi, ricchi dei veri sapori pugliesi, quelli che sanno di casa e di tradizione, tutto curato nei minimi dettagli. Io e il mio fidanzato abbiamo addirittura fatto il bis di gnocchi, tanto erano buoni! Un grazie speciale va ai camerieri, sempre sorridenti, gentili e disponibili: la loro cordialità fa davvero la differenza e rende l’atmosfera ancora più piacevole. Torneremo sicuramente, perché posti così restano nel cuore.

Non posso raccomandare abbastanza questo posto. Il ristorante è bellissimo, situato nel pieno centro storico di Polignano. Non essendo molto grande, l’atmosfera è piuttosto intima. Io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo vissuto a Polignano per due anni e non siamo mai riusciti a trovare un tavolo libero, ma ne è davvero valsa la pena aspettare. Il servizio è stato impeccabile: i camerieri sempre attenti al nostro tavolo (eravamo in dieci!) e sempre con il sorriso, senza mai perdere la pazienza. E che dire del cibo… non ci sono aggettivi che bastino! Tutto era squisito, saporito, fresco. Abbiamo assaggiato il baccalà, i fiori di zucca ripieni di cacio e pepe, il risotto ai frutti di mare, i tortelloni e le orecchiette. Tutto talmente buono che, anche se eravamo sazi, non riuscivamo a smettere di mangiare. Da ora in poi sarà una tappa obbligatoria a ogni nostra visita a Polignano. Grazie di cuore per tutto! ❤️

The food was authentic and the service was amazing. We arrived within an hour of closing and the staff and owner was welcoming and owner waited on us. I have eaten at a lot of place across Italy and this place should be add to your must eats when in Polignano.

> This is a very nice restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere and excellent, attentive service from start to finish. We especially appreciated being shown the fresh fish of the day, which added a nice personal touch and highlighted the quality of the seafood. Everything we ordered was fresh, well prepared, and absolutely delicious. The only small issue we experienced was with the timing of the courses—my wife’s first course was served at the same time as her appetizer, which felt a bit rushed. That said, it was a minor hiccup in an otherwise enjoyable experience. Overall, we had a great lunch and would happily return.

Very fancy place with fresh fish represented before ordering. Nice calm music in the background. Wide wine selection. No waiting line, waiters are very polite and good english speakers. Food was special and really great! Only disadvantage we experienced that we did not order antipasti, they brought some, we haven't touched it, but it was billed anyway.

Unfortunately, our booking got lost somewhere, but maitre d’ accepted our word and found a table for us outside - which is where we wanted to sit! After a complimentary ‘welcome drink’ we order cocktails ( excellent martini!) and shared a tuna tartare. Beautiful presentation and delicious. The main was a shared risotto, with a local Chardonnay. Very tasty. All through the evening, the service was attentive and friendly. We loved the fella with the large tray of seafood. Thoroughly enjoyable

Matilde Espregueira

Has the best seafood pasta since I’ve arrived in puglia. The food is delicious, not expensive and their offer of biscotti and wine is a great way to end the meal. It gets busy so make sure to book! Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Maria

Fresh, flavorful, and authentic — seafood done right in Polignano. A must visit. I had the tuna tartare and my friend the tuna steak well done.

Pablo Perez

Unbelievable spot. We came without a reservation (2 ppl and it was late) and they were kind enough to seat us quickly inside. Everything we had was absolutely incredible, from the beef carpaccio to the seafood pasta. I cannot recommend this place enough - the service was amazing and the pricing more than reasonable.

Nikolay Starev

Perfect restaurant! Excellent service, incredible food. I recommend spaghetti di mare and grilled octopus!

Oscar Cook

This place was tremendous. Beautiful setting, the service is excellent, and the food is just incredible. It’s just lovely, authentic Italian food made perfectly. The gnocchi with purple prawns was a favourite of mine.

Eva Martin

Make sure you pre book as they are busy, delicious meal with wonderful meat and fish options. I had the crumbed sea bass and it was beautifully prepared

Adam Tobin

Amazing restaurant with beautiful seafood and attentive staff. The sea bass and seafood linguini were delicious. Our Apulian seafood salad and appetiser of the day were standout. The owner took care of us and was very welcoming.

Mollie Scelzi

This was the best meal we ate whilst we stayed at Polignano Al Mare. The service was exceptional - specially the waiter with the long hair, he was incredible. Seafood was incredibly fresh, welcome drink was lovely and we wish we could re-eat our meal again and again!

Jan Mívalt

Best experience in italy, definitely worth. Suggest chef selection starters, gnochi, but to be honest i believe that whatever you choose, you wont be disappointed. Stuff is really nice, place looks nice, in my opinion cheap for the experience you get. I was immensely satisfied.

Claudine

La Locanda Porta Picc was a standout. We had the burrata, the tagliolini special with stracciatella, and finished with the best tiramisu I’ve ever had. Everything was fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully done. Tucked away in the old town with a warm, local vibe would go back in a heartbeat.

The food was great, reasonably priced and friendly service. Please be sure to make reservation in advance! Everything we ordered were delicious! Especially the grilled baby octopus! Slightly charred, well seasoned and super tender! It was the best we tasted throughout the trip!

Marcela kupečeková

A restaurant with truly warm and attentive service, and an atmosphere that feels a step above the rest. Highly recommend making a reservation! We had the seafood tasting menu and every dish was excellent. The tiramisu was absolutely heavenly. A wonderful dining experience from start to finish

Marie Sophie Hartmann

Restaurant with the freshest food we’ve had in one week exploring Puglia!! Make a reservation and come here if you get the chance. Recommend the carpaccio di tonno, insalata di mare, both really fresh and soft, the orecchiette con cime di rapa were amazing and creamy, and the catch of the day was a massive sea bass that we shared which was buttery soft and full of olive oil and herbs. Extremely delicious. Service also superb and very accommodating. It’s pricey 200€ for 3 pax) but absolutely memorable food experience.

Isabelle Worth

We had a fantastic meal here. It was one of the best meals we’ve had during our stay in Italy. Amazing, attentive service, they bring out the catch of the day to showcase the fresh selection they have for the day. We had the chef’s selection for appetisers which was 6 different dishes, and both had the seafood spaghetti for mains. Both absolutely delicious, also very reasonable! Highly recommend.

Locale molto carino nel centro di Polignano. La qualità delle portate è stata davvero ottima, il tagliolino fatto in casa era buonissimo , per non parlare di crudi e astice ovviamente! Il personale gentile e anche molto persuasivo, a parere mio sanno vendere il prodotto in modo molto convincente. Vale andare in questo ristorante in cui ti senti a casa e avrai un’accoglienza da 5 stelle. Anche se sul costo finale avrei tolto qualcosina sul pescato del giorno, il cui costo , a parere mio, è esagerato.

Ottima accoglienza e servizio molto gentile sono caratteristiche importanti di questo ristorante che è anche ben arredato. Abbiamo assaggiato tanti piatti, tutti molto buoni e realizzati con ottimi prodotti. Il prezzo è nella media della zona.

Mi sono trovato da solo per cena in questo ristorante, Maitre accogliente, mi sono trovato a parlare anche con la Chef tutti molto cordiali e gentili. L’unica cosa negativa che mi sono sentito pressato, avrei voluto cenare più lentamente e tranquillamente. Per il resto lo consiglio, ci sono molti piatti nel menu che mi hanno incuriosito; peccato non averli assaggiati.

Overall food is good. Environment is nice and cozy. Sitting outside is cold but they provide blankets which is very caring. We enjoy the risotto very much despite slightly salty. They will show you the catch of the day before order.

There are many restaurants and quick eateries around, some with view and some very informal, we chose to dine here just at random and it was a very good surprise. Small restaurant, with classic simp…

Locale da evitare, rapporto qualità prezzo inadeguato, forse un locale turistico. Abbiamo mangiato un antipasto misto della “chef” con 6 mini portate (totani e patate praticamente una zuppa con patate e un pezzo di totano, insalata di mare con polpo in pezzi piccolissimi e conditi con troppo aceto, cozze abbastanza buone ma con una cipolla che disturbava il tutto, baccalà e pesce spada affumicato niente di memorabile) alla modica cifra di 32€. Passiamo ai primi, il motivo per cui avevamo scelto questo locale, due tagliolini con polpa di riccio alla modica cifra di 40€ dove il sapore del riccio era inesistente e i tagliolini erano gommosi al punto che sono stati lasciati quasi per intero nei piatti. Non torneremo più sicuramente e spero che questa recensione possa aiutare ragazzi come noi che vogliono pagare quello che c’è da pagare ma mangiando in modo adeguato.
