Grotta Palazzese Reviews from The Last Year
Yes itโs picturesque but min menu 200โฌ thatโs not justifiable
Attended for our 30 wedding anniversary as it was on our bucket list. $1000 Australian dollars later, that hurt butttt I love with memories. Set menu for your budget (laughing) minimum spend 199โฌ per person. I had scallops for starters was divine then ravioli for entree super rich and overpowering then fish for main was Devine but the size of slice cheese. Then tiramisu amazing. Views were spectacular. Staff were attentive but not friendly and no smiles. There was one waiter in a wool coat who took the order, he acted like he owned the place and seemed to look down on everyone. The young waiters were nice but the female waitress needed some more personality. The hostess was very nice she was the best staff member. Itโs a attraction and over exaggeration thanks to social media. Unless you have money to throw away or like me a milestone to celebrate Iโm sure the little restaurant on the cliff up the road to this restaurant that has starters for 10ยฃ and mains for 30โฌ taste just as good and same views. Pricing seriously is over exaggerated itโs no Michelin.
Good experience!!
Defined as one of the ten most beautiful restaurants in the world... the location is actually exclusive, eating in a cave with the view and sound of the sea crashing on the rocks is a unique experience. The guys in the room were good, friendly, welcoming and helpful enough to put us at ease as soon as we sat down. The dinner did not have the same wow effect as the cave entry but the food takes second place compared to the location, even if all in all the chosen route satisfied us, the cellar is well stocked, wines and bubbles for all tastes and budgets , the price is high but I think it's fair for the context, a nice experience... a pleasant evening thanks also to the guys in the room who deserve my applause. Advised.
Terrible
I would have happily paid for a guided tour to admire the cave instead of one Terrible dinner with very poor quality ingredients, combined together in a disgusting way. The partly raw lobster had a very bad smell and the pasta was served to us raw. Four courses, one worse than the other. I only feel sorry for the highly friendly staff. We already imagined the bill to be quite high but I would have simply liked a professionally cooked spaghetti with garlic and oil, we returned home hungry. What a disappointment!!!
postcard-like!
splendid location for a romantic weekend. we ate everything fresh and clean. excellent selection of wines and great variety of dishes. a gem to absolutely try
Fabulous location, menu to rethink
The location alone is worth the cost. Spectacular, romantic, evocative, unique in the world. The menu is truly disappointing, a gourmet menu with no particular quality and little taste. Worth seeing again. Very kind staff
Spectacular
The location is unique... I have had lunch in revolving restaurants on very high towers... among my experiences... I have not been able to find anything more spectacular... high level menu and service...
Brutal overpriced food, a tourist trap for the view
This place is a trap that lures people in with the view. There is a reason you have to pre-pay so much. Even the staff seemed to know this was a disaster, once they dropped off each plate or the wine, you never saw them again. I can imagine they've suffered many angry guests who realize the only reason to be there is the view. This is heartbreaking in a country where the food can be very well done, even simply. Please avoid, it needs new owners!
Best Ambiance in Puglia
Grotta Palazzese was the hero restaurant of our trip. We had three couples and booked a table around 3 months in advance. When we got to the restaurant they were accepting walks in but they were the tables towards the back of the cave. We booked a table at 6pm so we could see the full sunset and soak in the ambiance. When we got to the restaurant, seats werenโt exactly allocated so I asked the staff if we could sit at the top with the water view, they swapped our table over (if you donโt ask you donโt get right)โฆ arguably we had the best table at the restaurant. I had watched Tik Tok reviews prior to coming to the restaurant and thank god we did as men had to wear pants and closed in shoes (in 40 degree heat). There was reviews about the food being very expensive and not worth the money, I noticed that people saying this were ordering the gold menu. We decided to go with the first, cheapest option and was surprised with the amount of food we received, everything was really yummy. The restaurant catered for dairy and gluten free as well so we even got extra allocations. We shared a few bottles of rosรจ and red, it went really well with the food. Later in the evening a saxophone player came around and played happy birthday for me which was a really lovely touch. We could have stayed there all night watching the sunset, you canโt get a better view and ambiance - overall recommendation is 1. book and advance and ask where to be seated 2. Book around 6pm so you see the full sunset over your seating timeframe 3. Order the cheapest menu option and you wonโt be disappointed.
It's all about the gram.
That perfect sunset, the perfect photo, the video of you coming down the stair and into the view of Adriatic Sea. When I say the perfect sunset, you need to come here during that time to get that golden hour photo. Once the sun is gone, it's all artificial lights and it's just not that impressive. YOU ARE paying for the experience and view. Before I dive into it, we don't have to worry about parking here. They would give you an address to arrive at, park your car, and have a complimentary shuttle/van ready to take us to the hotel. That was nice because as you get closer, the streets gets narrower and more pedestrians darting out of the alleyways. Plus, you would have a hard time finding close parking, unless you park a little East of the restaurant near the viewpoints. My friend and I usually opted for exotic and unusual experiences and glad we decided to come here. Service was, of course, on par and beyond. The bread/appetizer plate was really good, it might've been my favorite part. So they're set menu options for you to choose, but some of them you cannot mix! My friend is a vegetarian/vegan and I'm not. I wanted to ordered the one with the octopus, but I was not allowed to! She would have to order the same set menu as me and if not, I have to order the classic option. I wasn't too please to spend that much money and I can't even order what I want. Oh well, it was about $100 cheaper so whatever. AND I was not full! =/ Well.....the food was decent, really nothing to rave about. I was still bummed I didn't get the octopus dish I wanted and I definitely didn't want to pay $50 for just that dish. Overall, it was okay. I wouldn't recommend it unless you want that "gram" photo op and to say you've been here. You definitely can get better food elsewhere and 100x cheaper. The whole coast is full of nice view and it's at your leisure.
Beautiful view
The best setting, beautiful views. Normal food High price for what it is, there are thousands of restaurants in Italy, but of course without that view not that location
food was great.
service was awful . Had trouble with the reservations. Make sure you have proof of reservation.... Especially if you make them far in advance. Very expensive- would have been worth it if the service was good.
Ignore the negative reviews! They made me a bit nervous
Ignore the negative reviews! They made me a bit nervous for no reason! We celebrated my husband's 60th birthday here last night and it was an experience that will not be forgotten! If you reserved a table here, all of the policies are very clear on the website. You are definitely paying for the ambiance which is understandable as there's no place like this! The staff was efficient and friendly enough and they even remembered we had a birthday. The saxophone player was a great touch. The food was above average and honestly better than I expected. We had an amazing one of a kind, once in a lifetime evening so don't hesitate-GO!
The location is amazing, the ambience is good except for
The location is amazing, the ambience is good except for all the photoshoots going on; the food is okay (but definitely not for that price range), and the service is a poor man's idea of high-end, which is also valid for the experience as a whole.
I only gave it 2 stars strictly for atmosphere and views.
Price for the quality of food is insane. The food is fufu garbage. Don't waste your time. Go to Monopoli and have a great meal. I was born and raised in a Barese background. This place is not worth the ridiculous price.
