Piazza Palmieri

Reviewed By Christopher W

Location on a quiet square can't be faulted.We booked a table and the place was full. It's a bit of a tourist trap. There is a very large menu and the food wasn't always well cooked. Several tables had large groups which seemed to dominate the service.My shellfish risotto was al dente in the extreme.The fried fish and tempura vegetables main course was not good. There were no vegetables and the batter was heavy. Small prawns in their shells which could not be peeled dominated the dish.We were disappointed as we had great expectations for this place.

Reviewed By CTID73

We enjoyed a tasty meal in Condominio 60 on our last evening in bustling Monopoli. It's well located in the pedestrianised area of the town near the port, the food is authentic Puglian including a variety of fish tartare, fried mussels, octopus and the regional speciality of veal meatballs in a tomato sauce. Beef fillet was a little over done for medium rare but acceptable and price for 4 of us represented good value, particularly with 20% off by booking in advance through Trip Advisor and The Fork app.

Typical sandwiches, sausages and cheeses, wines and beers, typical Apulian products in the ancient heart of Monopoli. The season is over, now we are closed! See You next April!

Soon after arrival we went for a walk to find a light lunch and some drinks Luckily we found Magnapulia Service was friendly and chilled Fischer beers and wines arrived quickly The mixed cheese and meat platter was excellent and easily served four of us It was excellent value for money Location sitting on the busy “street” was great for people watching and cooked by the breeze Grazie mille.

Le Muse e Il Mare

The restaurant Le Muse e il Mare stands for elegance, professionality and quality. Thanks to our chefs we turn our dishes into real works of art, always keeping the traditional flavours

Reviewed By Scottysdad

Quite a few restaurants were closed in Polignano as it was Monday night and this included the restaurant we had intended on visiting.Frankly, we’re pleased it was closed as this establishment in Via Roma was superb.It’s easy to know when you’ve found a good restaurant as the service speaks volumes. Here Lorenzo, our waiter along with his female colleagues were exceptional.The atmosphere was really good, the soft jazz was spot on and of course the food dishes topped it all off. The salads were fresh, the pasta and fish dishes brilliant and the Tiramisu was the icing on the cake!We are in Polignano for three nights and despite the choice of eating places we’ve decided to go back tomorrow night.
