Atenze - Lecce

We had a nice evening. the food was very delicate and fresh. we had the 90£ menu that really good quality for price. Finally we really enjoyed the we recommended wein. but thanks to a massimo for its friendliness and professionalism. manon (the French family)

Made reservations based on the Fork and this was such a disappointment. Went for lunch and the menu was much more limited than the menu the restaurant shows on their website and what they offered at lunch was fairly boring. We weren’t offered a wine list when we sat so we didn’t bother to order a bottle, but would have. Service was meh and server seemed flustered with the three small tables he had. Food was salty, the lettuce under my burrata was rotten. Overall a waste of a lunch and don’t recommend people go. Look elsewhere.

Beautiful setting on a rooftop facing the Basilica di Santa Croce. Attentive staff but the service was rushed. A starter of octopus was chewy, very oily and unseasoned, whereas the cuttlefish noodles were light and fresh. A primo dish of pasta and prawns was well seasoned but a seaweed garnish felt out of place. Excellent wine. Overall, an average dinner with a very expensive price tag. My recommendation would be to enjoy the view on the terrance with a drink rather than dinner.

Each dish was unique and the combination of flavors ran perfectly together. The staff was also incredibly friendly and attentive. I didn't know what to expect, but that was one of my favorite restaurants in Italy.

Cortesia, elegance, excellent quality of food. These are the main elements that distinguish this restaurant. Each dish, well presented, perfectly maintained, a pleasure for the eyes and palate, from appetizer to dessert, with a wide choice of wines. Perfect service, sublime dinner.
