Tucked in a charming square in Salento, this gem offers a chic yet relaxed vibe, exceptional food, and stellar wines, making it a must-visit.
"Occupying a corner of the central Piazza del Popolo in the delightful historic centre of Ruffano, this family restaurant (also a liqueur-maker) is surrounded by old palazzi which add to the charm of its setting. The Puglian cuisine served here has a modern twist while remaining unfussy in style and firmly anchored in the region. The service is quick, and each guest is greeted with a smile by the Rizzo family." - Michelin Inspector
The innovative dishes at this restaurant deep in Salento’s interior are inspired by the region’s ingredients, which are elevated using modern techniques and outside-the-box flavor contrasts.
