Primo Restaurant

This place honestly deserves their second Michelin star. Each dish was unique with incredible flavors. The service was perfect- Thiago especially made our dinner so special! Our meal was much better than almost all one star restaurants we’ve visited, as well as most two stars.

Excellent food and experience. Friendly staff. Intimate restaurant with only 6 table s Good wine selection. We ordered most of the menu to share. The top dishes were: Sweetbread with raw shrimp, Pasta with yellow tomato, the pork. As a dessert the recommended is the salted caramel dessert. Maybe the only letdown was the cod, as it was a little bit bland. Otherwise everything was amazing. Worth a stop

Lovely restaurant in Lecce. Michelin service was lacking. Portions slightly large. For us 12 courses was too much. Overall food delicious... just way too much, And we came hungry. Mostly fish. Amazing local flavors. Dont come here if you dont like seafood. The wine pairings were fantastic! They were better than the food. Do the wine pairings! Overall alright. For twelve courses, there were only two deserts. We would not go again. 250 pp w wine pairings.

I had pretty high hopes for this restaurant, especially given that it was going to be our last proper meal in Italy. The meal started off well with the sweetbreads and eggplant entrees. They were pleasant, but I guess I had higher expectations given their Michelin star. The problem was the pasta dishes. Ive eaten hundreds of pasta dishes all over Italy and this has by far been the worst. I had an polpo alla pinata that smelled incredibly bad as it arrived on my table it made me want to dry retch. The first thought that came to mind was the smell that hits you as you pull back the lid on a can of pet food. I have eaten a lot of slow cooked octopus and squid dishes over the years. Slow cooked octopus is usually my favourite type of pasta so I was quite excited, but this was definitely not right. I only ate a few strands. I hate wasting food but I couldn’t make it though much more without feeling nauseous so I had to leave it behind. My friends pomodoro was at least acceptable but honestly was so sweet, again the closest thing I can think to describe is like a mango chutney. It was a little funky and hard to get through but we both ate it. Honestly we were both very disappointed. We ended with a tiramisu which was actually pretty good. Also the service was pretty top notch, as were the wines. The venue is also lovely. It was just a shame about the food…

One of the best meals we’ve ever had and certainly the best in Italy. The dishes here are deceivingly simple; everything is absolute perfection with traditional dishes reimagined. Both pasta dishes were incredible and the Shrimp + Veal combo is the best bite you will ever have. The service was absolute perfection, super friendly and accommodating. The wine list is mostly local and the bottles are actually priced very friendly in comparison with other Michelin restaurants.

We had one of the best meals we ever had. You can see that the chef, Solaika is very dedicated to her job. All bites were amazing. The service was very good and informative. The wine selection is also excellent. The restaurant is small and the atmosphere is unique and fine.

This place is pretty incredible. The chef and the staff are amazing. Each plate is carefully put together. Of course there are some that are better, but it will depend on what you like. I recommend the Primo menu, or the 100%, it's worth every penny. Thanks a lot for the great experience.

Who knew the humble aubergine could taste so good. Chef Marrocco elevates local ingredients and brings the rustic puglian cuisine into the 21st century. This is a must book spot on your trip to Lecce.
