    Best meal in Ostuni. Known for their cave. Cosimo recommended the terrace for our party of 8. Service was great! Appetizers were amazing, especially the steak tartar with truffles. View from the terrace was beautiful during sunset. Reservations via the website are recommended.

    Nice restaurant, casual but elegant yet still relaxed. The food was very good but seeing that it was mostly foreigners as patrons, the prices kinda reflect that. We had the eggplant parmigiana and the ricotta stuffed zucchini flowers to start, both ok. We also tried the sea urchin and vongole pastas. Both were tasty but a bit on the salty side. The staff was great, friendly, attentive and helpful.

    This restaurant is on the tourist path in Ostuni, which is one of the busier towns in Puglia. So this may have been one of the busiest restaurants we went to in all of Puglia, but it's worth the visit. Make a reservation, and ask to dine in the cave, which is quite cool. We started off many of our meals in Puglia with a charcuterie and cheese platter, and did the same here. The highlight on this platter was the burrata, so delicious and creamy. We shared a bottle of Rose, which we discovered was our favorite of the local wines, and enjoyed handmade pasta and the pork ribs. The porks ribs are a must get, the flavors are amazing and the meat super tender. The best part is the little ice cream bon bond they serve after the meal. You don't order them, but you wish you could because I would have eaten a dozen. This place is full of tourists, but it was a tasty meal and nice representation of Pugliese cuisine.

    I had the pleasure of discovering "La Taverna della Gelosia" during my business trip to Ostuni…read morewhere I had with me a bike of value. But I want to tell you a story. Before entering this tavern I had tried to eat in the nearby tavern called "osteria del tempo perso" which rejected my request to be able to "park" my bike in their safe space (external stairs) during lunch. After being rejected by the "taverna del tempo perso" I continued to walk for few minutes in the alleys of Ostuni where I discovered the beautiful "Taverna della Gelosia" (Tavern of Jealousy) to which I asked to have lunch and to be able to "park" my bike in their safe space during lunch. The staff was extremely kind in accommodating my request by making available a small space of their cellar room where to park the bike during my lunch. This is the real welcome, typical of Italy and those who know how to manage a restaurant. I had lunch inside the tavern where the rooms were very elegant and extravagant characterized by a private collection of ex voto icons, sacred art. The terraces were very charming from which you could see the valley of olive trees and the sea. Once at the table the service was impeccable, the property very nice with Emilane origins with which I had an interesting conversation about "the name of the tavern". I suggest you ask him so as to know some curiosity about the birth of this restaurant and his name :) The excellent dishes, unique flavors, high-class dishes. Really recommended if you are looking for an exclusive place to eat in Ostuni. I was lucky to accidentally meet this beautiful location.

    Excellent lasagna and ribs. Both would suggest to order again. Menu is in Italian but the owner…read morehelped explain the menu. Bruschetta was brought out complimentary. Service did take very long we were there 2 hours mostly waiting on dessert to be served. Very good
