Beautiful restaurant with beautiful abstract pictures, great ambience and a wonderful dining experience. Each diningroom was set up to make you feel special and that you were the only people dining. The service and the food was exceptional as was the wine and we were pleasantly surprised by the cost. Each course was fantastic and the antipasto was the best we had eaten in Italy! The ravioli too was delightful and we cannot recommend this restaurant enough should you be visiting this area! A five star rating is not enough!

We came to Quintero after a long day at the office. The resturant is on the small side, but with an excellent views. The seafood antipasti of different seafood and shells was really fresh. And so was the fish baked in salt. The Negra ero rosato wine was nicedry and yet fruity (Elogio) . Recommended.

We started with the antipasti with specialities from region. Excellent. Pasta was also great pork too. The winelist was by apulian standards large with interesting local wine. Will definately return next time in area.

We were four hungry and thirsty cyclists heading to Lecce but needing food and refreshment on a hot afternoon. Place looked closed but door open. On going in and enquiring, they were only too happy take us in, set us down at a large table and cook us a delicious pasta meal, with wine, and ice cream to finish. They even put on some romantic background music for us and left us in peace.The evening menu dishes looked delicious.

A quiet little restaurant in a very quiet village. I would say more attuned to local trade than tourist trade - the food sort of reflects that in it is very particular local flavours that did not work for me. Quantity huge, for me quality not as high

We visited for dinner two nights in a row. As a gluten free eater this restaurant was AMAZING! pretty much everything on the menu can be gluten free and everything I tried was absolutely delicious! On the second night as we paid the bill the chef/owner offered my dad and I are little shot of his home made limoncello- I was genuinely humbled. Thank you so much for your delicious gluten free food and friendliness!

A great place to taste home made Salentinian dishes. High quality ingredients and good preparation in a family run restaurant.It's not very easy to find this place as it is needed to drive through a small village called Pisignano and then to follow the signs to the place along the way to Lizzanello. But then you can experience a great selection of local dishes, a nice place with tables outside in the garden and the great atmosphere of the Salento country side during the summer.Ask for the suggested appetisers selection to start in style! ....and then try the various meat based recipes.

We had a quite dinner for two on the recommendation of a local who is a friend of the owner Stefano. He could not have been more helpful and one of the kitchen staff provided some translation about the dishes. All of which were great, and generous as we nearly rolled out the door. Quite cheap and a great place to try some of the local cuisine. Happily go back again. Well done Stefano.

We went there for dinner with some friends on a warm monday night. The location is in Strudà 's main square, facing the old castle (charming but cannot be visited). The restaurant is tiny but very tidy and cozy, high-vaulted and decorated inner rooms are very nice. We sat at a table outside but I do recommend the inside for its charming look.Food is typically local, from a very various and tasty appetizer (bruschettas with tomato/basil or fresh ricotta cheese with oil and pepper, aubergines rolls, fried pittule, grilled vegetables and a very tasty mint-flavoured omelette).First courses were really excellent and huge in quantity; I strongly recommend the sagne ncannulate (homemade twisted pasta) with tomato sauce and the ravioli stuffed with ricotta cheese and nuts.The owners Grazia and Giovanni are very warm and friendly, they really made us feel home. We'll be surely back to try the meat dishes!!!!

Reviewed By Romana79
à una novità per Lecce, il risotto è tipico del nord :-) è una scelta coraggiosa, solo per questo va premiata. La zona non è delle migliori. I tavoli allâaperto hanno molto da migliorare: prima di tutto câè troppo buio, e le sedie in plastica sono brutte e scomode. Inoltre sei proprio sulla strada e ti prendi tutta la rumorosità delle macchine. Delle belle poltroncine comode e sicuramente più luce per vedere i piatti ti fanno certamente dimenticare della strada. à sempre una questione di percezione. Lâinterno è minimal, intimo, molto luminoso con una bella cucina a vista sinonimo di pulizia e trasparenza. Mi piace. Buono il crudo di mare. Molto Buono il risotto al lime e tartare di gamberi. Lâavrei gradito un tantino più al dente, ma era ben mantecato e la porzione abbondante. Servito ben caldo e questo è importante. Sarebbe carino associare al nome âLi Risiâ che in dialetto salentino significa âridereâ,,un personale più sorridente e aperto. Per esempio ci siamo seduti e solo dopo più di cinque minuti di attesa qualcuno ci ha salutati...impossibile non vederci data la dimensione del locale. Chi serve ai tavoli deve essere sicuro di se, accogliente e sorridente. Forse i ragazzi sono alle prime armi. Lo chef molto cordiale, è venuto a conoscervi ed è stata una piacevole chiacchierata. Sicuramente un locale dalle grandi potenzialità . Ci tornerò perché il menu dei risotti cambia ogni 15 giorni, sono curiosa di assaporare le novità . Buono il rapporto qualità -prezzo.
