Restaurants
Ostuni - reservations highly recommended - but the kindest service and incredible food by this hardworking husband and wife duo. If available, book a table on the terrace (there aren’t many and they book fast!) for a front row view of the historic center. But, the beautiful stone interior is nothing to scoff at, either. 🤎
