    Where do we start. Cafe Cavour is a marvelous dining experience. Set in an underground ancient…read moreolive mill, the ambience is beautiful and romantic. The food on its own is one of the best we have had in Italy, but the real gem is its owners Fabrizio and Donatello. Both are incredibly gracious and generous, and express their bright personalities through their food and service. My fiancé and I dinned here and they made our evening and time in Ostuni feel truly special.  We would recommend a reservation to make the most of the experience. The lamb is amazing, and the spaghetti with octopus is probably my favorite coastal dish. Truly impressive how they are able to deliver from both land and sea.

    This place was a gem, worthy of accolades and return visits. A family-run (dad, mom, son)…read morerestaurant a few steps from Piazza Della Liberta, the gateway to the old city in Ostuni. The restaurant itself is located in a romantic cavelike grotto that was apparently a "frantoio" (olive mill) dating back to the 1100s. Simple, seasonal Puglian cuisine, featuring seafood, meats, and cheeses. Dishes changing with the seasons and cooked with elegance. Owner Giuseppe Fabrizio Nacci was there to explain it all and give suggestions. What a nice guy! And what a great dinner experience. All the dishes were standouts; great pasta with calamari, and orecchiette with tomatoes and ham from Martina Franca, but we were in 7th heaven after ordering the slow-cooked lamb-shank as a secondo to split among the 3 of us. It took a while (it was, indeed, tender and slow-cooked) and was just divine. Great Puglian wine-list. If you have only one dinner in old-town Ostuni, I'd strongly recommend this one.

    Trattoria del Pescatore - A seafood restaurant I would come back for.

    We spent an hour wandering the streets of the historic center when we stumbled upon this local gem…read more We have no idea how this compares to the other seafood restaurants in Taranto but we enjoyed ourselves and by the looks on the other faces in the crowded dining room it looked like were were not alone. During out entire 1-2 hours here we heard not a word of English. It looked like a local joint with families and singles on dates well represented in the crowd. We were greeted at the door like we were long lost relatives and hustled right away to a table. We were presented with menus but before we could open them we were beckoned into the next room where all manner of fresh caught seafood was lying on ice. I assume they were telling us to pick out what we wanted to eat (some of the choices were still moving around) but as they spoke no English and I even less Italian they could have been telling us anything and I would not have had a clue. We picked out swordfish, calamari, bream and something else that looked adventurous. At each selection the animal was ceremoniously plucked off the ice and placed on a large silver platter. Once we were done we were led back to our table which had been adorned with bread and cutlery in our absence. We still had not opened a menu. We looked around and noticed nobody had menus and they simply told the waiters what they wanted and a few minutes later it magically appeared from the next room on silver platters for the diners to inspect. Once approved the sea creatures were then off to the kitchen and their fate. Needless to say it was delicious and as fresh a fish as I have ever eaten. And I have lived on the beach where seafood was there for the taking. Not only did we have our fill but it was the perfect fuel for our mile walk through the February night back to the hotel. Our entire bill including wine was $46.00 We would definitely come back.
