Primo Restaurant

Very special and unforgettable experience with unique twists on Italian classics incorporating local ingredients and bold flavors. The dishes were amazing! The service was fantastic and the ambiance was romantic. Highly recommend for a special occasion!

Very creative integration of local ingredients with the techniques of fine dining. The service of our two waiters was also lovely and we were very appreciative of the wine recommendations! I really recommend trying the surprise menu, it’s a lovely surprise each course. Chef came to greet us as well :-)

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.

Came to Italy hoping for an authentic experience and we were not disappointed, food was amazing, along with the atmosphere. Have been to a couple of Michelin star restaurants and completely get why this has one. Made our Italian holiday. Was suggest this to anyone, thank you for such a great meal

We had a gastronomic evening here last night. So rich of flavor and taste with a very pleasant service. The wine recommendation was perfect with our a la carte choices. A gem in Lecce which we highly recommend. Booking in advanced needed🙏
