Mister Burrata — Restaurant in Bari

When entering here as a tourist there's not much you have to say. The owner asks you "Sandwich?" before you can even scrape together your Italian. He'll ask you about pistachio paste, which veggies (with a plate to show them) and which ham. So if you know "crudo" for instance, you'll be totally fine to order your great panini. A final question about chopped pistachio on top and you get to leave with this amazing sandwich and the ball of cheese you can't wait to taste.

What can I say. This for sure deserves all of the amazing ratings. The burrata is just amazing. Eating the sandwich is not always the easiest, but who cares about a little mess when eating something this delicious. If I was in Bari for longer I'd return here regularly. But as this is not an option I'll just have to daydream about this from now on.

This place deserves every single one of its stars. By far the best panini I had in Italy — and for just €6, which is incredible given the quality. The ingredients are absolutely fresh, and the flavors are impeccable (with a full locally-made burrata inside). This sandwich was to die for.

What I also loved: no one here pushes you to leave a review, so you can expect that most of these comments are authentic and spontaneous, something rare in touristy areas.

Finally, notice the shop is a takeaway spot, so don’t expect seating, but just across the street there’s a beautiful square by the university, with plenty of benches where you can enjoy your meal outdoors,...

Stopped by Mr. Burrata and gave their burrata panini a go…one with ventricina and another with prosciutto cotto the next day. Both were packed with flavour, super fresh, and surprisingly filling for just €5 a bun. Great value for what you get. We also picked up three burrata in a container for just €3.50 and they were absolutely spot on creamy, rich, and super delicious! Definitely worth a visit if you’re into quality ingredients and simple food done right. Would go back in...
