Reviews Summary
Macelleria braceria "da Zio Peppe" offers an incredibly authentic and delicious Puglian dining experience. Diners rave about the high-quality, house-made meats and cheeses, and the unbeatable value of the fixed menu. While the service can be disorganized and the ambiance rustic (plasticware included), these aspects are often embraced as part of the unique and fun adventure that makes this place so special.
"If you're searching a local restaurant, with no high standards for the location and service but with DELICIOUS food and cheap prices, this is the place to be. I had the best ricotta and Polpette al sugo of my life. We took the menu for 15 Euro each, had more than enough with the quantity. They have delicious wine also in bottles but you have to drink it in plastic glasses. You get also plastic plates+for to eat, but trust me it's worth it! And don't forget to book a table because he's always full!"

"Great place to have a taste of Puglia without the fuss of the fancy restaurants. All local produce and mostly made onsite. They have their own cows and pigs and they just have them processed at another facility. The "restaurant" is next to the butcher shop and it has aircon and shades. The 15 euros menu would feed a small giant. I mean, it s a taste of what this land can offer at an affordable price. 5 stars for quality. It s a family business, with house wine the colour of blood and plastic plates but, to me, these kind of places are 10 times better than proper restaurants with fancy dishes and decoration on their plates. It's a true local experience. Kudos to businesses like this one"

"This is just perfect. Very special dining experience. Don't expect anything that's not meat (a little bit of cheese must do the vegetable trick). Lovely add-on: the suoer sweet kittens in the courtyard."
