“ What an experience! I said to myself I have to share it with others. First, four of us came in after some research for seafood while driving, in a beach attire, with no reservation, for lunch. And we got seated ( I apologized for shorts and flip flops ). We ordered seafood crudo and octopus from appetizers and for some strange reason they took away the menus. We got the menus back - after realizing the appetizers were not in some ridiculous amount - but it was the strangest thing. Now all the food we ordered was sublimely delicious and beautifully plated. It is probably a culture thing like constantly spilling wine when pouring glasses and throwing plates as if they are made of plastic, or combining two orders of the same seafood pasta dish into one big one and separating onto two plates one of which being the original big bowl - just a bit strange. Great food and a culture adventure! Highly recommend. ”

“ Truly amazing restaurant! The service, food, atmosphere - everything was above and beyond. We ended up going this restaurant twice during our short visit in Taranto. We saw people picking up fresh fish they want to eat and it was cooked freshly and your server bring it to the table, show how they clean the fish in front of you and serve the fillet. This was awesome experience. We tried many dishes, everything was on top-notch. The dessert lemon sorbet - it was perfect to clean up your mouth. Highly recommend this restaurant and don’t forget to make a reservation before you go. ”
