3/10The waiter needs a vacation. He clearly doesn't want to be working there (and he'sthe head waiter). Better service at McDonalds.

7.5/10The food was very good, but the service was a little slow and they didn’t come around to the table to see if we needed anything. We ordered a fish that they said weighed 1400 grams, and when we got the bill, it was 1650 grams. I think they should have weighed the fish before they told us the weight.

10/10We have been 3 days/nights in Lecce and we went to Alex Ristorante 4 (four!!!!) times. It is simply the best for us. It's the atmosphere, it's the service, it's the quality of food, it's the boss with eyes everywhere and it's his nice wife he is "hiding" in the kitchen as the Chef of the kitchen. Thank you for the time we could spend in your Ristorante. Franz and Claudia, we come again on August 31, 2023.....

3/10Items described on the menu not matching the food on the table - “Suckling pig” was an ordinary “porchetta”. All communication with the stuff went out the door. Do yourself a favour and avoid this place - there are many places around this place, where you could get a delicious food at a fraction of the cost and a great service too

10/10Impeccabile service. Amazing fresh raw seafood, expanse wine selection and let’s not talk about the homemade lemon spaghetti with shrimp tartar and stracciatella cheese… can’t wait to visit beautiful Lecce again.

4.5/10This was planned as our big night out in Lecce, it was by far the most overpriced meal of our 3 week long trip. The portions were so small, the service starchy and the the environment bland. we paid 70 euros for a seafood platter that had two prawns, two scampi and a few slices of squid. Overall I would recommend going to anywhere else!

8/10The restaurant is beautiful and beautifully furnished. The lighting is cozy and relaxing. The service was appropriate for the restaurant. The only gray spot is the price that seems to be too steep for the overall experience.

9/10The menu was so intriguing we decided to have two starters each and then a dish called Watercolor Risotto. Surprisingly the starters all came at once. That was a little odd. Good thing the egg with truffle, the cod carpaccio, the ceviche and the anchovies with Gorgonzola (what? Yes!) were all beautiful dishes. But our Primo was otherworldly. Turns out Chef Alexandra is a genius. Her Risotto smelled deliciously of the smoked tea it was prepared with, and on top lay the softest, most delicate piece of prawn. Never had such perfect al dente risotto. Also loved the Puglia chardonnay that the sommelier picked for us.

5.5/10It was fine. Way way way over priced for mediocre food. Soooooo not worth it. If it was half the price then yes definately worth it. €25 for a primo in milan, i would have left the restaurant thinking ‘wow’ but instead this food was just ‘ok’… so over rated!!!

10/10If you are into good food and a nice atmosphere, this is the place to go. The food was delicious and the staff was great. The bread was INSANELY delicious and fresh and warm. If I ever go back to Lecce I will come back to this restaurant for sure.

2/10We came here with big expectations, but we were extremely disappointed. The food was very pretensious and the flavor combinations didn't make any sense. Still we ordered and were surprised about how bad the starter was. The tempura was flavorless and the salmon with butter was just that..... Super Market salmon with lumps of butter. We didn't even eat the entire meal. Still no waiter informed about how the food was. We were doubting whether to leave or stay for the main course. We decided to stay.... Big mistake. None of the dishes was good. The veal was boring and they was literally grass in between the vegetables. The cod tasted off. We even smelled and tasted the dish to make sure it was not spoiled. Then the waiters came to take our full plates away. When we sad that it was not good they just walked away! It was horrible way over priced food with bad service. This was one of the worst food experiences in my life... Unbelievable how this place is still alive in a goodlovers paradise like Lecce!

6/10Very disappointing. Really nothing special. The high point was the sommalier. I would not recommend and will not return. At this price point a restaurant ought to deliver a memorable experience.

9/10Very good and sophisticated seafood restaurant, it's very fancy and consequently privy, but worth the quality. Very good and fast service. Waiters were very friendly. If you want to take a fancy break from pasta and pizza, this is a place for you.

8/10Don’t order the pasta unless you like it crunchy! We didn’t all order appetizers so they brought out the main course for those who didn’t order apps which was ridiculous
