A small seafood trattoria on the brackish edge of Lake Lesina, where the menu follows the waters on both sides of the shoreline, lake fish alongside sea fish, all cooked in the regional tradition with just enough modern colour to keep it interesting. The kitchen holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the dessert that gets talked about is a "rigatoni al pomodoro," puffed pasta tubes filled with whipped ricotta and tomato jam.

Salt cod gets its own tasting menu here, which tells you something about how seriously the Murani brothers take Apulian tradition. This is a warm, unfussy osteria east of Foggia's centre, where the kitchen runs on seasonal produce, some of it from their own garden, and on family recipes that feel like they were cooked for you specifically. The wine list is all regional, and the room is bright enough to make the food look good before you've even tasted it.

The Josper oven and a dry-ageing unit on site tells you where this contemporary Italian restaurant's priorities lie. Grilled meats, including prized Iberian cuts, anchor the evening menu, while fish dishes keep things balanced. Lunch pulls back to something more casual and accessible without abandoning the kitchen's modern technique. The room itself has an architectural edge that matches the food, a short walk from the center of Foggia.

Eight tables under a vaulted brick ceiling in what used to be a bishop's palace: this small Apulian restaurant in Lucera's historic centre earns a Michelin Bib Gourmand for cooking that takes the region's land-and-sea larder seriously without taking itself too seriously. The chef's riff on a prawn cocktail, striped in alternating cocktail sauce and squid-ink cream, signals exactly how the evening goes.

A Mediterranean seafood restaurant tucked into an old alleyway where a noble palazzo's stables once stood, the stone-vaulted dining room feels like a secret the cathedral district kept to itself. Glass panels at the center of the floor reveal a cellar with over 300 labels, which gives you something to look at while you decide. The cooking leans into the ingredient rather than the technique, and the focaccia di mare has a reputation that precedes it.

A trattoria in Cerignola that grew out of a family delicatessen and never quite forgot it, so the pantry instincts run deep. The cooking is rooted in Apulian tradition, unfussy and ingredient-led, the kind of place where quality shows up in the simplicity rather than hiding behind it. The room has the warmth of somewhere that has been doing this for a long time and means it. Selected by the Michelin Guide.

The Iaccarino family's southern Italian fine dining tradition lands in Basilicata, inside a resort that also houses a pizzeria and a Japanese restaurant, which gives you some sense of the ambition here. The room is elegant without being stiff, and the kitchen runs three tasting menus built around local ingredients handled with the kind of Mediterranean restraint the family has refined across decades. The wine list is serious.
