Atenze - Lecce

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.

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)

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.

I can't miss this restaurant with 5 stars. Amazing location, very patient, attentive and wise staff. The delicious dishes and a choice of wines and sparkling champagne. We'll be back! Congratulations to the chef and all staff
