We’ve had a few drinks here in the previous days, the place is very friendly, cosy, not so touristic.. mainly the local youngsters and university students meet here for a few drinks and snacks. It’s like a university pub with some local pub food, prices definitely more affordable compared to a restaurant in the crowded areas.The “frittura di mare” and the “parmigiano di zucchine e melanzane” was great, even better than in some more posh restaurants.

The service was very friendly and accommodating. They speak English and Spanish, the food is delicious and affordable, I can only praise the experience I had. Thank you again and I'll be sure to come back when I'm in Bari!

Normal prices for dinner, cheaper compared to others around. The food (mixed fish bowl) was good and the staff was friendly, Nice place to sit outside, next to a park.

The staff were very friendly.Compared to other holiday destinations, the prices were alright too (warning: there's a 2 "coperto" fee, which is basically like a tip, meaning you don't have to give any additional).The breakfast panninis (especially the mortadellapistachio one) we ordered were great, too.What I'd improve is adding a menu in English :)Oh and the coffee was great, too.

A savory plate of tagliatelle con speck, radicchio e pecorino (the sauce). A nice glass of vini rosso.Attentive, friendly service (except for one woman, but I didn't see her smile at anyone )I don't know how this restaurant can be rated 3.8. I recommend it.

We had such an amazing experience here! Coffee was amazing, pasta was one of the best we had in Bari, the prices are reasonable and most importantly, the girls serving us were super friendly and helpful! It's possible to sit outside and relax, as the place wasn't too crowded (we arrived around 11:30 am). We definitely recommend this place & we hope to visit once again! Thank you for the experience

We stayed with them for 5 days and it was a great experience. All staff are very kind and helpful with customers. The restaurant itself is of excellent quality, with a variety of Italian cuisine options at a very affordable price. Don't hesitate to check it out for yourself.
