"This is quite simply the kind of place we all dream about finding on holiday. I live locally, so often recommend it to tourists and visitors alike. We eat here all the time. It is impossible to exaggerate just how good the food is, how reasonable the rates, how large the portions and just how friendly and helpful the staff are, in this magical home-from-home with such high standards and low, low prices. I often feel sorry for customers at the large number of touristy eating spots in this highly popular tourist destination. I know they will be usually happy with their food and service etc, but as a local, I know that what they are paying so much for, is way, way below the standards we enjoy when we go to the Tavernetta for lunch, dinner or even order take-outs to enjoy at home. Two families share the running of this eatery. The two main chefs trained and worked at the most exclusive hotels and restaurants in Venice for years, before coming home to give us the benefit of their excellence and dedication to the best standards, at reasonable costs and super service and the rest. Be smart, eat here as often as you can, whenever you can and just be glad you checked first on Tripadvisor !"

"My husband and I stayed in Martina Franca for a visit and were looking for a recommended restaurant for lunch. This Resto was closed so we used Google to find another. What luck! Garibaldi Bistrot in Piazza, where the cathedral is Garibaldi Piazza, I think proved to be a great find. The family owners warmly welcomed us. We started with the zucchini flowers (my personal favorite), which were crispy and delish. My vegetarian man wondered about his paccheri with tomatoes, ricotta and basil. We shared an Arugula salad fresh, large part that we dressed with some fantastic local olive oil and finished with an incredible chocolate torta. So satisfied that we made another lunch two weeks later, which turned out to be even better. John had the same dishes as before (why change a good thing) and I won with the zucchini flowers and the Pasta special of the day Tortello (like Ravioli) filled with Taleggio cheese and pear and covered with a Parmesan cream and truffle powder. It was Mozzafiato! Beautiful clean and beautiful rooms with the freshest food and quiet very attentive service. Would return anytime."

"If you are in Martina Franca, you must have eaten here as it’s probably the or one of the best restaurant(s) here: The pasta is tasty from heaven, the service is attentive and incredibly friendly, the quality of the food and drinks is second to none, you sit very nice (inside and outside) and the prices are more than fair. We liked it so much that we were there twice in one week. Thank you so much!"

Pizzeria Pomodoro E Basilico

"E' il migliore pizzeria in una citta' che si dedica a locali dove si mangia bene. This place is small and a little out of the centre, but, if you are interested in eating the best pizza you will find, anywhere, including Napoli, you have to go to Pomodoro e Basilico at Vico II Salvator Rosa , 15, just off the Via Bellini Car park. The taste is just amazing. The base is light, perfect, delicious. The toppings are a dream and a surprise and certainly not the usual often bland collection of basics that you get anywhere. No, the pizzas here are all an experience and leave you wanting to come back for more. I certainly will. Don't go for a simple margeurita. Let them excite your taste-buds and leave you stunned and smiling !"

"Had another great meal here. A wonderful family run restaurant in Martina Franca town. This is a butchers come Restuarant. You get to choose your meat and then you go up stairs to this lovely traditional room to dine. Very basic but clean and it works! We had for the first course that consists of a cold meat and cheeses were delicious. Followed by different cooked meats, fillet steak, T bone, Bombetti’s meat rolled with filling) sausages and chicken. Jacket potatoes and salads. With a couple of jugs of red wine. Waitress service by Emanuella, who is brilliant. This is Traditional Italian cuisine at its best. Definitely worth a visit."
