Malcandrino - MONTERONI DI LECCE

Cenone di fine anno: tutto perfetto! Il locale è molto suggestivo, si cena fra grandi botti, serviti da personale gentile e solerte. La cucina è raffinata e gustosa: tutto il menù preparato era concepito per deliziare sia con carne che con pesce. Notevoli gli antipasti, gambero su zucca e carciofo fritto su topinambur, eccezionali i primi, ravioli con stracotto e risotto con zucca caffè ed erborinato. Buonissimo tutto il resto. Perfetti anche per le richieste fatte per i nostri ragazzi. Superconsigliato

Ristorante/location per eventi collocato all 'interno di un suggestivo palazzo storico. Nelle serate estive il suo cortile interno, arredato in modo rustico ed illuminato con piccole luci diffuse si trasforma in un luogo di magica convivialità. Dopo un ' entrèe decisamente non esaltante, a base di una zucchina acidula aromatizzata alla menta il sipario si apre su un ricco nonché squisito primo piatto a base di orecchiette fatte in case con una vellutata crema di zucchine e pomodorini confit. A seguire delle interessanti bombette di carne ripiene di caciocavallo e pancetta con crema di pecorino e delle morbide melenzane condite con salsa 'teriyaki '. Accattivante ma non convincente sia in termini di eccesso di zucchero che di consistenza del biscotto la millefoglie con crema alle pesche. Servizio presente. Prezzi nella media.

We were recommended this place by friends. the location is stunning, and based on this the atmosphere of the restaurant is wonderful. we were really excited when we were there. Unfortunately, eating did not live our expectations (or the preisen.) the ingredients...the regale were excellent (big burrata, capocollo, vegetables, fish etc.), but the dishes simply did not work. for the net we had the scorpion fish, which was very tasteless and underseasoned (and the anesthesia of avocado with this dish was confusing to say the least), and the tuna steak, which was coarsely overcooked and could come out of this ground from a dose. in general, the workers here were great (very courteous), the atmosphere amazing, but the person behind the eating must work a bit on the dressed because there is no excuse if they have so amazing ingredients that they have in puglia.

An ancient stone quarry is now a beautiful and romantic restaurant where in you can enjoy the typical cuisine. Excellent food and location for a cheap price.

Do not miss that this is a hidden gem. the location is magical; she almost feels like entering another world. we went to dinner in a cold and rainy night, and as we hall in the glorious vault, with the huge old weinfässern. it was a manifestation. not only that, it was well heated. (there is a magnificent courtyard for the warm months as well as the dame that served us, was incredibly knowing about eating and wein both specially for this restaurant and in the rule and the history of the native, as well as in the position to remember many different orderings without having to pay attention. the amuse bouches were glorious, the different antipasti and primi better than the other, although the price has to be in the capocollo and burrata the best dish that I have eaten at least in the last year, if no longer. I didn't have a second, but the ones that they all made excellent. our red wine was also excellent; not too overwhelming as it happens sometimes in southern Italy. other reviewers have mentioned the costs; we thought it was extremely good, given the fresh of the locally sourced ingredients and the unique location, not to mention the wonderful staff. I would not hesitate to recommend this unusual place to any demanding diner who knows and appreciates the quality.
