Fresco Fish - Lecce

Not super fancy but a convenient cozy cafe to eat a quick meal(seafood sandwich/ salad etc. ,look the passing-by or grab a bag of food to go. The location is on a little hidden corner at center of old Leece, 2 minutes walk from Leece's 2nd century amphitheater.

Whilst staying at the Patria Palace hotel which is opposite this restaurant we could see that the tables were full most of the evening and so we thought that we would give it a try Unfortunately we were not impressed. Service was slow, we felt that the Italians were being served before us, and we had to constantly remind the lady server that we were there and needed to be attended to We are not demanding at all but expect a bit more than an order taker and a food delivery, I can get that on an app! Food was average We won’t return

My sister and I visited this restaurant last night and were thoroughly disappointed. After being seated, it took a considerable amount of time to order, following which we waited over an hour for our food. Finally the waiter informed us that not only had the kitchen forgotten our food but they also had run out of all the food we had ordered (how do you run out of spaghetti in Italy?? . We had watched people come and go in that time, so this was really frustrating. They weren’t that apologetic but didn’t charge us for the wine. We were really excited about this restaurant but left at 10.15pm to find dinner somewhere else. Disappointing!

In our stay we tried many times to eat fresh, always full, auspicious. we decide to book, we ate fresh fish really delicious. the square where it is located is very lively and in the center. recommended.

Located in the historic center of lecce you eat outdoors in front of the facade of the basilica of Santa Croce, it is already worth sitting independently of the result. result more than good, menu rich of fish in all its forms (crucis, cooked, in the first and second and in other particular dishes); efficient, courteous and dynamic staff. high average prices, but in my opinion excellent raw materials evaluated by courageous combinations and presentation with style should be paid. I do not leave 5 stars only for 2 aspects (which reads my reviews maybe already imagines): for us vegetarians there is no food if not subtract from compound dishes fish, in short, not enough, beers to choose really few maybe preview other local crafts would be an added value. but all good!
