The Top 26 Restaurants Near Pizza Canneto Beach 2
-
Rank 1. Quintessenza
Modern Italian
A Michelin-starred restaurant tucked inside period walls across the square from Trani's Swabian castle, with a terrace that frames the cathedral bell tower on fine evenings. Four brothers run the room and the kitchen together, which sounds like either a sitcom or a dynasty, and in this case it's the latter. The cooking reinterprets classic Italian tradition through Apulian ingredients, leaning on flavor and substance over flourish.
-
Rank 2. Casa Sgarra
Modern Italian
A cheese trolley stocked with Piedmont and French selections is an unusual flex for a restaurant on the Apulian waterfront, but Casa Sgarra has always done things its own way. This Michelin-starred fine dining room is a family operation, with brothers running the floor and the kitchen, and the service has the warm, unhurried ease that comes from people who mean it. The cooking roots itself in Apulian tradition, then wanders wherever the chef's curiosity leads.
-
Rank 3. U' Vulesce
Apulian Italian
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.

Rank 10. Osteria Boccolicchio
Apulian Italian
-
A large fireplace anchors the dining room of this vegetable-forward restaurant set inside a rural villa on the Murgia plateau, where warm wood and old stone set the mood before the food says anything. The seven-course tasting menu shifts with the weather and the season, built around vegetables and wild herbs cooked quickly enough to stay themselves. The wine list leans toward natural and biodynamic producers from the region. Ranked third among Italy's vegetable bistros by 50 Top Italy.

Apulian Italian
-
Rank 13. Li Jalantuùmene
Apulian Italian
-
Rank 14. Don Alfonso 1890 San Barbato
Mediterranean Italian
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.
-
Rank 15. Osteria Terra Arsa
Apulian Italian
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.
-
Rank 16. La Kucina
Contemporary Italian
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.
-
Rank 17. Bramea
Basilicata Italian
Named for a rare butterfly found only in the Vulture hills, this creative restaurant occupies a carefully restored ruin in a corner of Basilicata most people couldn't point to on a map. The dining room reads modern inside ancient walls, and the kitchen leans into tasting menus built around hyper-local Lucanian ingredients. The kind of place where the amuse-bouches alone make a case for the whole region.

Rank 18. Al Dragone
Apulian Italian

Rank 19. La Villa
Basilicata Italian
-
-
Rank 21. Coquus
Apulian Italian
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.
-
Rank 22. La Bul
Modern Italian
-
Rank 23. Il Presidente
Mediterranean
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.
