Arborvitae - OTRANTO

Wonderful spot in the historic district. Beautiful patio garden with good coverage from Apulian summer sun. Daily specials are made from the fresh catch of the day. Our jovial and passionate waiter Marco recommended our full meal and he did not disappoint. Lovely place for lunch, I’m sure a phenomenal place for dinner. Intimate location, knowledgeable staff and wonderful food.

We went there for lunch after we were unable to get a table the previous night due to the restaurant being fully booked. It was worth the wait. The mackerel starter was excellent, as were the pasta dishes (paccheri with monkfish and tagliolini with seabass). The staff were friendly, the garden setting relaxing.

Recommendation by our B&B. Beautiful food, romantic and discreet location, excellent and friendly service. Special thanks to Mattia for making us feel so welcome and for speaking in excellent English. Ate the seabass which bruschetta which was so delicious! Mattia deboned and served at our table Pasta primo dishes also delicious One of our favourite meals in Otranto Thank you ArborVitae!

Wonderful antipasti and the freshest monkfish. Excellent white wine. All lovely!

A triumph of raw materials of our seas expertly presented by the staff of the room and masterly impiattati.
