In the heart of the city, a small corner of Puglia in a stone, vaulted room to enjoy traditional Mediterranean cuisine. The chef proposes a fresh fish of the day cooked according to his mood. If the menu mainly honours seafood, carnivores are not forgotten, and seasonal vegetables offer them good company.

For a moment of gastronomic poetry.

In the Garibaldi Theatre Square, there is a restaurant offering hearty antipasti and good pizzas in the evening. The restaurant is also open for lunch, but the heat in the square is unbearable.

This restaurant offers an appetizing choice of tapas of Italian rather than Spanish inspiration. We fell in love with the smoked sardines served with burrata and tomatoes: a delight! The setting of the room is very pleasant, with its large bay window and blackboards displaying the day's suggestions. We also liked the sofas laid out on the pavement, perfect for sipping a glass of wine, an aperitif or a digestive. The only downside is that the portions are not very large and you have to multiply them to satisfy your appetite. The bill goes up quickly.
