"“Dear Guest, the dishes we propose are the result of careful studies and a constant research for balance, for this reason we do not think that altering the cooking time or the ingredients will benefit the dishes”. Laltro Baffo menu. One of the challenges of eating out in Otranto in summer, perhaps more than anywhere else in Puglia, is the choice of bars and restaurants. Around the port, along the lungomare and lining the narrow streets and alleyways of the old town an almost endless choice of menus can be found, of which the highlight is undoubtedly the local seafood. While the British, French and Belgians have limited themselves to experiencing Puglia around the well trodden Valle d’Itria, Salento has for many, many years been the go to destination where Italians vacation to get away from it all. Otranto has always been high up on their list of favorite Salento spots. Despite the long line of bars, restaurants and places to eat, one after the other, it does mean tasty and authentic food is never far from you. Italians do not tolerate bad food. And even although Salento is fast becoming the “fashionable” face of #destinationPuglia, with many other guides now catching up and onto Salento as the place in Puglia to visit, this has not (yet changed the quality of food on offer. When choosing our top place to eat in Otranto we had only 2 criteria: seafood and somewhere away from the crowds. Actually we had a third a cool air conditioned interior was a must. By mid afternoon the temperatures were creeping up to 40°C 104°F. Laltro Baffo (a self branded fine fish restaurant was an easy and intriguing choice. Intriguing because unlike so many other Otranto restaurants offering spaghetti or linguine ai ricci di mare (the qualification “di mare” making it clear that it’s not hedgehog on the menu , theirs was carbonara di ricci. We are and we are not carbonara traditionalists. There is only one true carbonara sauce whose ingredients comprise egg yolk, Pecorino Romano, guanciale and black pepper. And nothing else. But we do not shy away from using carbocrema elsewhere. On pizza, in between layers of lasagne, as a baked potato filling. So, the big question was whether Laltro Baffo’s carbonara with ricci would work. We think it did. Firstly the carbonara was fabulously glossy. We forgot to ask what fat they substituted for the guanciale. The saltiness of the sea was a decent substitute for the strips of guanciale, though it lacked the crunchiness that guanciale gives to carbonara. It could have had an extra grind of black pepper. Our second primo was orecchiette, gamberi marinati, mandorla e pesto di erbe aromatiche. Creamy, light and fresh. Seafood is a less common, but on this occasion welcome, choice to serve with orecchiette. We shared a secondo between two of us grilled squid, spinach and seaweed with black aioli sauce and seeds. The balance of flavor was well executed. To finish, we choose two tribute desserts. A deconstructed pasticciotto (described as “Messy Pasticcioto” . This was a generous portion of crema topped with broken pastry shards and fresh fruits of the forest to give a slight sourness to the creamy custard. The other was “il leccese” in homage to the caffè in ghiaccio con latte di mandorla. An fine rendering of panna cotta with a coffee sorbet and coffee mousse (in reality more of a foam on top. Service was attentive and non invasive, with a 3€ coperto per person. Menus are in Italian and English."

We had grilled fish and grilled vegetables. It was overcooked. Seafood pasta was terrible. Definetelly overpriced and over rated place. You can definetelly find better food arround.

Wonderful experience. There are so many restaurants to try in Otranto but we are here twice. Beautiful fish, wonderful service and could give many Michelin starred restaurants a run for their (overpriced) money. Anchovy starter memorable. Finochetto

Laltrobaffo Otranto. Very good. In our opinion one of the best. Excellent CHEF and professional staff. You can also eat in the open or upstairs in a beautiful frame. In the heart of the city , close to the castle. Food over the Top and good Wine . See U soon. Maxbugatti.

Ottimi i crudi, cos' come le cozze gratinate, eccellenti i secondi ombrina con foie gras e ciliegia, così come il calamaro, spinacine, insalata wakame, semi e maionese all'aglio nero. Tranquilla e luminosa la veranda e servizio cordiale e sollecito. Un luogo in cui tornerei volentieri. Ver carta

This place by recommended by my Agriturismo and did not disappoint. I had the degustation of raw fish and the sea urchins pasta, and I'm still raving about it! On top of the delicious food, the service was excellent and I felt really well looked after. The welcome mini aperol is a real treat!

prima di tutto la gentilezza e la grazia dei camerieri, attenti e mai invadenti. poi i piatti tutti preparati con ottime materie prime e con sapori che vengono ricordati. un plus per il dolce cioccolato bianco, albicocche, rosmarino e arachidi che ho adorato che non amo i dolci. il prezzo giusto per il posto e quello che abbiamo assaggiato

We were quite impress by this place. This was a great experience from the beginning to the end. They have a superb terrace so be sure to book a table there. Our waiter also made a real difference in the evening with great recommendations. The quality of the ingredients and the way the chef prepare dishes was a no fault. We definitely highly recommend this restaurant.

I was recommended to this Restaurant by the owner of the Airbnb I was staying in in October. This is a family run Restaurant that has been established for many years. They clearly take their work seriously as the quality of the food and ingredients is excellent. Cost is not excessive given that you are getting a highly professional experience from both kitchen front of house.
