We had such a lovely time! The atmosphere is great: we were sitting drinking watching the sunset, enjoying endless courses of fresh fish and drinking some good artisan beer. The music in the background is quite cool - a selection of super cool indy bands. The service was attentive (there were constantly waters coming around) and we also had along chat with the owner who is a super cool guy who knows about quality! The fish was just great. We had some raw fish followed by fried, steamed and grilled fish. The drinks were great. Prices are honest. If you can try also the locally made amaro - it was incredible. If you pass this area visit this place, you will have a good time. Plenty of choice, fresh and with a good service!

We had a quite dinner for two on the recommendation of a local who is a friend of the owner Stefano. He could not have been more helpful and one of the kitchen staff provided some translation about the dishes. All of which were great, and generous as we nearly rolled out the door. Quite cheap and a great place to try some of the local cuisine. Happily go back again. Well done Stefano.

We have a second home in Salento and have tried many local restaurants. The standard is this area is high and hidden in the back streets of Martano is this absolute gem. We had dinner first as a couple and enjoyed every course, the risottoâs are excellent and I had fresh fish as part of the â catch of the dayâ. Delicious! My husband loves pizza and he believes this is the best ever! Thin crust, very tasty toppings.. 10 out of 10! The service is exceptional too and all so good that I returned 2 days later with 5 local lady friends for lunch. Everybody loved it, especially my Italian friends who loved the pasta dishes. Needless to say, we are returning again and now have âOperaâ down as a regular for the future.

About restaurant... itâs awful. Waiters do not speak English almost at all, we used to show pictures in google to describe what we wanted. When we ordered dishes, waiter used to walk with them around the restaurant and were asking other guests if they ordered it...(in the breakfast same thing happened with our drinks). As well in the beggining we ordered tea, waiter forgot about it, than we repeated that we are still waiting for our tea, they made really stupid face like âWHAT?â. Food was good. Overall disappointed with restaurant service. During the breakfast used to describe many times what is Caffe Latte... still two times they brought something different ...

It's a local place, not built up just for tourists. Fairly small (so remember to walk in advance), not visible from outside however, it surely worth a try being one of the best all over the area. You can choose what you want but give the pizza a try because it is really superior.

Found this via TripAdvisor and it turns out all the reviews are on point. Freshest of seafood. Delicious recommendations we wouldn't typically choose. The tapas (raw prawns / cooked prawns with aubergine flan / fish croquettes) were knockouts. Ravioli with scampi was a standout - freshly made. Wine was also delicious and the staff were so lovely, although with limited English (more than our italian) we had a great time communicating. Worth visiting for lunch after a swim in la grotte poesia (natural rock pool). Try and get there early for a table outside. Thank you very much, we're very happy and hope to see you again! :D

After reading the reviews our expectations were high & werenât met!! Although the food was reasonable...the service felt rushed & forced {bums on seats springs to mind} We will return to SAN Foca but wonât be eating here when we do!! Dear Samantha, we are sorry for the inconvenience and we truly hope you will come back at our restaurant to enjoy a relaxing dinner in San Foca.
Top 4 Central-Italian food in Melendugno, Province of Lecce, Italy
1. Ristorante Angel
Restaurant specialized in tartare and other fish/seafood dishes using the freshest ingredients of the local area.
Reviewed By juanmiguelk2018
Even though it isn't centric it is easy to find, its goal to serve local fish in a contemporary way, different from what it is usually found in Lecce's centro. I am vegetarian and was pleased to find an aubergine and mint tartare, I didn't feel the mint but I still enjoyed it, it made feel pleased and relaxed. Then I tried the whole grain fusilli with four vegetables, it was good but lacked the magic that the tartare had. I finished with a panna cotta. Go try it for a special moment.
