Almost everything can be gluten-free 🤩. We took a mixed fried dish (croquettes and meatballs) and the puccia with octopus. Take away and eat by the sea. The fried food was a little greasy and the octopus a little tough, but I would go back and recommend it.
A lively spot near the sea, offering a diverse menu that caters to various dietary needs while delivering delicious homemade dishes and friendly vibes.

I am a lactose intolerant and celiac girl from Veneto. My boyfriend's family from Lecce took me to eat here knowing about my allergies. I absolutely loved this place starting from the kindness of the staff. Furthermore, the choice of foods suited to my requests was really excellent, including local dishes that I personally love but are usually not possible to eat due to gluten. Everything is really excellent, I recommend everyone (especially people with celiac disease) to go here to eat.
10/10. The top
Charming spot with a vibrant maritime vibe, offering delicious and inventive fish sandwiches in a bustling Otranto location.

My friends and I stumbled upon this place by chance and were pleasantly surprised.
Hospitality and education were the fundamental pillars of our experience with the staff.
The menu offers the customer the opportunity to choose between several very attractive dishes, which certainly will not disappoint you.
Furthermore, it is possible to eat their sandwiches with the gluten-free formula in order to accommodate those who are celiac or gluten intolerant.
The environment is calm: you can consume both inside and outside.
The only flaw for those going in a group is that the place has adopted a policy whereby separate accounts cannot be made.
Lastly, to my displeasure, two extra covers were added to the bill but we noticed this when we had already left the restaurant.
Despite this, I would like to recommend everyone to stop by here. ❤️
Charming seaside spot with a cozy vibe, offering a unique experience and a welcoming atmosphere for memorable moments.

I admit my lack, many years in Salento and only last night I was in this restaurant despite having 'passed over' dozens and dozens of times. Enchanting place, impeccable service with a smile, good food and a fair price. A detail that doesn't hurt if you are informed and prepared about allergens or intolerances (my wife has celiac disease)... several dishes are already gluten-free, then they have (packaged) SG bread and even fried SG fish (very good) in a dedicated fryer. Of course we will return.
A cozy spot with a relaxing vibe, perfect for unwinding with friends while enjoying a great ambiance and solid cuisine.

Ok place, large, welcoming, well kept. Wide choice of products and drinks. Too bad the long-awaited gluten free pizza was practically raw. Bad slip...
I turned a blind eye, as it was a Saturday night with hundreds of people...
A gem in the heart of the old city, offering delicious, well-priced traditional dishes and a lively atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating.

We discovered this place on the recommendation of a girl from Lecce. We took away two excellent pucce stuffed on the spot. Mine, the Cézanne (gluten free version), was exquisite. The girl who served us was very kind and thoughtful, showing great attention towards each customer. Super recommended!

Nice place, environment reminiscent of old saloons... friendly and smiling staff. As for the food, overall acceptable: excellent burger, but the side chips arrived cold. Being celiac, I consider the sandwich to be a little chewy. However, we can go back

Positive opinion, even if I prefer a more Easy atmosphere.
I didn't really understand if it was actually a formal place or if it wanted to appear so.
Location on the pleasant terrace (the same fryer visible at the entrance is also worth considering).
What we got was well made, some mix-ups with the bill, but resolved without a hitch.
The arrival of gluten-free bread was much appreciated due to the presence of a celiac at the table. Some types of pasta are available for intolerance.
Vast sandwich options and the chance to customize make this spot a delightful center to grab a bite, especially on a summer evening.

Very kind staff. The sandwiches can also be taken with gluten-free bread, however they do not have a separate space but it is an open space. There could be contamination but we still had no problems.
The sandwiches are good, the cost is proportionate.
The tables outside, however, are quite dirty and sticky.
Expect a classy vibe with a welcoming atmosphere, refined tastes, and a diverse menu that delights everyone's palate without breaking the bank.

The athmosphere of this place is truly amazing. The owner could not do more to make our dinner here more pleasant. Homemade straciatella was superb. I here never tested a better one. Adding it to pasta made it really delicious. On top the offer is very flexible since my friend is gluten free the variety of choices, including gluten-free pasta and home made deserts with thiramisu. What can I say. Great place, unique fluids, and interesting food.

What struck me most about this place was the attention to the customer. I had ordered a gluten-free pizza but it came out a little too "crunchy". The owner noticed that I was having some difficulty eating it and without me saying anything she immediately arranged for another truly delicious and crumbly one to be made. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the pizzas and fritti are excellent and I saw some very inviting first courses passing by. Low prices. We will definitely be back

Restaurant focused on typical Salento cuisine that I frequented during my adolescence and that I try to try again every time I return to Salento.
Externally it may look like a building like the others, but internally it is a great restaurant, well looked after and rustic, with the possibility of, in the summer, also having a place in the garden, a great garden.
The staff is very kind and smiling and offers/suggests typical or seasonal dishes, especially to those who are trying this cuisine for the first time. Their mixed starter is fabulous and plentiful, a normal person would be full with that alone.
The other dishes are also all well made and plentiful and also have gluten free options.
The quality of the products is very good and the quality/price ratio is excellent.
So what can I say, absolutely worth trying.
An intimate spot known for its superb dishes and an impressive selection of local wines, creating a memorable dining experience.

We had lunch at Crianza on Easter day. Even though we hadn't booked, the staff welcomed us with enthusiasm and was ready to satisfy our every need. Giorgio, together with the other waiters, guided us in choosing the dishes which, in fact, were better than each other. We tasted the specials of the day: Tris Sea Tartare and Paccheri Filled with Creamed Cod, what can I say SPECTACULAR! Furthermore, for those intolerant to lactose and gluten, there are also dedicated options for desserts (what
not taken for granted even today). I tasted the Artisan Ice Cream Pralines. Tasting of three flavors of ice cream covered in dark chocolate: Marzipan, Orange Dark Chocolate, Dried Figs and Cupeta were superlative!
The alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails were also carefully crafted and were excellent.
In short, our experience was excellent, if we were to return to Lecce we will undoubtedly return to Crianza and his staff!

A 5 star dinner.
Very high quality fish and above all a lot of attention to my celiac disease.
They cooked me the gluten-free pasta I wanted without any problems.
I even brought the one I preferred even though they were provided with it.
An unforgettable experience.
The fish melted in your mouth.
I will definitely come back during my next holidays.

I have now been a customer for over thirty years and I still remember when, as a child, the owner let me put the chair sideways to the wall of the wood-fired oven in winter to fall asleep in that warmth. Now the room has become much larger and has a vintage and creative decor that captures attention every time: historical photos, old peasant tools revisited, an ancient fireplace and a stove, plows and pitchforks (transformed into coats). Il piazzaiolo is an institution and makes delicious gluten-free pizza, fresh bread and traditional pucci. The meat is something unique and there is no shortage of homemade pittula and meatballs. The self-produced sausage is good, light and healthy. The house wine is always soft on the palate. Ancient atmosphere and dishes between traditional and modern, low prices compared to the quality of the products, always very clean environments and excellent service. If I've been going there for 30 years there must be a reason!
Fresh fish and a prime historic location make this spot a must-visit, but be prepared for some unexpected moments!

Fantastic experience. I ate one of the best first courses ever. Being gluten intolerant, they immediately satisfied my needs without sacrificing taste. I had excellent raw fish as a starter and as a first course I had spaghetti with lime with stracciatella, chopped pistachios and fresh raw prawns. The staff is very friendly and professional. Super recommended place

Exceptional farmhouse near Otranto. The place is enchanting, surrounded by olive trees and excellent dishes, the best raw meat I've ever eaten (and it was just the appetizer!), generous portions without losing quality. The staff is very kind, present but never intrusive, professional and friendly.
Great attention to gluten-free for me as I have celiac disease, with the possibility of gluten-free first courses too.

I had the pleasure of having dinner at the Rosinella restaurant, in the historic center of Gallipoli, last weekend. The restaurant is located in a small street in the center, in a welcoming and rustic environment. The staff is kind and professional and gave us the best advice for our dinner. We started with a really excellent appetizer of raw seafood: very fresh purple prawns from Gallipoli, a delicious tuna tartare and succulent scampi.
For the first course, we chose spaghetti with sea urchin pulp, which was truly sublime. The pasta was al dente and the sea urchin pulp was rich and creamy. For the second course, we opted for a delicious swordfish steak, all paired pleasantly with a glass of excellent fiano. And to finish, we had a berry cheesecake.
Everything we tasted was really excellent, and for me the most important peculiarity was that everything was strictly gluten-free, which is often overlooked.
I highly recommend the Rosinella restaurant to all lovers of fresh fish and good food, especially celiacs like me.
What more can I say, the aromas and flavours even distracted us from taking photos, leaving the tartare and scampi entrée as the only witness

If you are looking for a classic farmhouse where you can eat typical Salento dishes, this is the right place. You truly immerse yourself in an atmosphere of times gone by. It feels like being in the old houses of the Salento grandparents: the tomatoes hanging to dry, the typical terracotta vases, even the fireplace and all the furnishing details contribute to this sensation. The low lights give intimacy and make everything very romantic. The mixed starters are one better than the other, the sagne ncannulate and the horse meatballs are recommended. We accompanied the dinner with excellent rosé susumaniello. They also had gluten free alternatives. We were enchanted by the place and the courtesy. We will definitely be back.

Nice place to stay in peace and eat food, high-quality staff and then the room manager Miriam, super kind and very easy going, very good at recommending foods for celiacs too. From the cash register to the bar coffee and bitters offered by them and I will definitely return next time. Always like this, an immense pleasure, the driver from central Italy says goodbye.
