Vico del cuciniere (chiuso Per Ferie, riapriamo il 6 dicembre) — Restaurant in Lecce

The service and atmosphere: we really liked the style of the restaurant and especially the nice ceilings. The service was also extraordinary. Always there when needed, very friendly and forthcoming. Our son, 5, is very picky and the offered us a lot of different options for him that weren’t on the menu. Saved our day.

I have been here already twice and I would give 10 stars if possible. You can absolutely see that the cook has a real passion for cooking and cares about what is putting in every dish. Price: very fair compared to the quality. Totally recommend. I am very envious that this place is not in the city...
