Service

I arrived at an evening where I had the restaurant for myself (Monday). The food was enjoyable and highly creative done at a presentation worth its money. You should visit this place before the Michelin inspectors will do it resulting in a climb in the ranks and the prices. Highly recommended but a bit difficult to find (I used the navigation  app of my smartphone)

This restaurant was just outside the city walls so felt more like a lovely neighbourhood restaurant than a touristy one.   The staff were lovely, strong English and explained various dishes on a menu that was varied and more inventive than alot of the restaurants we have been to in the old city. The food was superb, reasonably priced and special mention to the lemon and raspberry tirimisu....delicious!

Great service, beautiful atmosphere and delicious food! Highly recommend this sushi restaurant for when you need a break from pasta and pizza.

The best experience I have had in Lecce.Super friendly staff with wonderful and careful service, tailored to a romantic birthday upon request and with a fantastic gastronomic journey surrounded by charming pietre leccese.Highly recommended

Seven of us went to celebrate my 50th birthday and the restaurant staff was so friendly and accommodating. We called to let them know that we were running around 15 minutes late from our reservation time and they said that was okay. They offer a variety of pizzas, as well as seafood, steak, and pasta dishes. Everything was delicious, especially the Nutella tart they brought out at the end of dinner with a candle. The local white wine was excellent too. I have always dreamed of coming to Italy and my dream came true for my 50th birthday. Thank you to Da Gianni Ristorante for being a part of my dream coming true with a wonderful birthday dinner and celebration!

This is the best seafood restaurant I have visited in years - tasting menu was superb and the wine pairs were very well consider - finally the desert finished me off - awesome

Excellent restaurant, the fish is fresh and the price is very fair for what they offer. I had an amazing lobster there.

Beautiful place , food is very good and not too expensive.

We loved the food and wine! There were many good options but we had the snapper and the sirloin, after we had an appertivo (the club sandwich). Such great flavors. Service was a little slow but was great up until the end. We were trying to pay the bill and asked if we could tip since we enjoyed everything, and our waiter responded &ldquo;we don&rsquo;t do that in Italy, you just pay the bill&rdquo; which we found fairly rude. I&rsquo;ve been to Rome, Milan, and Florence where I&rsquo;ve always been able to tip. So just a note to not assume that guests haven&rsquo;t been elsewhere in Italy/around the world or be standoffish when they&rsquo;re trying to compliment the restaurant.. definitely hurt the vibe a bit.

The staff at Barbecue in Lecce were incredibly accommodating from the moment we arrived. Friendly and attentive, they made us feel welcome straight away, happy to guide us through the menu and answer any questions. Their genuine enthusiasm really elevated the experience.We started with chilli and tortilla chips&mdash;absolutely excellent. The chilli was rich, full of flavour, with just the right amount of heat, and the tortilla chips were perfectly crisp. It was a great introduction to what turned out to be a memorable meal.The real highlight was when I tried Canadian bison for the first time, and it was an experience I won&rsquo;t forget. Cooked to perfection, tender and deeply flavourful.Overall, the combination of warm, helpful service and outstanding food made Barbecue a pleasant discovery.

Had a delightful and delicious meal in a small room adjacent to the terrace. The decor was pleasant and the food was excellent. With a waitress who wanted to make sure we had a great time, we were sure to remember and return to this restaurant. Delightful.

Very chic hotel, slightly on the outskirts of Lecce, but that made for easy parking. Extremely attentive and knowledgeable waiter, wonderful food (light but tasty) and sophisticated surrounds.  Definitely somewhere to come back to.

Friendly and helpful staff helped navigate the menu.  Food and wine were very good. Good ambience with groups of diners of all ages

Highly recommend trying the Martina Franca pizza with hemp dough; it was amazing! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, ensuring a delightful dining experience.

We 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

The food here is exceptional, especially the grilled meats and pizzas. The service is attentive, and the outdoor seating is perfect for enjoying a meal in the summer.

Really 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

The food here is simply delicious, with a focus on traditional dishes that highlight local flavors. The welcoming environment and attentive service make it a must-visit.

36th wedding anniversary. This is our go-to special occasion restaurant. Although not billed as a sushi restaurant, their sushi menu is extensive and among the best in the city.

charming locaton. decent food. Quick and freindly service. very reasonable prices. every visit the experience is a good one so that&#39;s why we return !

Really 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!!!

This place is a hidden gem! The combination of delicious food and a beautiful outdoor dining area creates a lovely ambiance for any occasion.

The service was very good. Good food if you want a family style evening without frills and thrills.

The food is targeted for fish lover. The fresh fish is cooked in the oven with simple olive oil and herbs. This is wonderful. Additionally, the view is speechless.

You would not expect a pizzaria in a strip mall to deliver this kind of quality. Not that it is impossible, but even most large houses do not take the trouble to source ingredients and provide caring service. Mauricio, as we learned, started his business on a shoestring 14 years ago. It has since blossomed post COVID. He expanded into the space next door. He sources the most exquisite cheeses from a young group of artisan cheesmakers from  the North. It&#39;s a king of gorgonzola that is dreamy, get some with your appetizer plate is coppocola, uncooked creamy prosciutto, and a craft beer and you are set to order one of his delicious pizzas. What a great time it was to hear of his philosophy and business success. If you don&#39;t feel like going out they also deliver. Super high quality ingredients, hell even the pepper is sourced from Madagascar. Skip the overpriced  fancy places in Lecce, dine like the locals , treat yourself to Pizza Carpe Diem

Great food and wine. The restaurant was quite busy at lunch on a Tuesday so it has its reputation. We enjoyed the cold cut meat and a great Nero Di Trioa with our Primi. We recommend this place!

Service was very good, food excellent. Toilet facilities needs improvements, urgently. Gents toilet had the pipe broken and the floor gets flooded each time you flush it.
