"We are from puglia living in UK and we all know Polignano is a great small town with incredible food. We found this restaurant by chance. They describe them-self as fine cousin on the entrances display. We took a chance, “ come on we are in polignano, should be good”. Unfortunately the food was far from fine and the quality wasn’t good. I ordered a tris of fish tartan, tuna was good, salmon wasn’t good at all and the third one had no taste, couldn’t recognise it. My wife, also, ordered “raw fish antipasti”. The octopus was cut in a very strange manner, thin sliced generally you would expect it cubed as in the octopus salad) a bit hard and chewy. Salmon wasn’t good, we left it all. As main course I ordered “paccheri pasta) with scampi and kind of vegs”. Pasta was extremely hard As Italian I know “al dente”, that wasn’t that) and strangely not smooth as shape, the scampi were not even cut in half, so I needed to open them, which is not fine as the hard bits of the shelf can end up in the dish. Those Scampi, need to be cut in half on the stomach part of the “fish”. The vegs were extremely oiled, the all dish was oiled submerged. My wife had, a stake tuna, which leaned on a salad leave. It was chewy and not nice to eat. The service was ok. We only had 1 waiter asking “how was the fish” and although my wife complained, nobody else came to ask more about it, like nothing happened. At the and of the dinner, which didn’t came cheap, nobody, again, asked about the dinner nor offer a discount or a shot of limoncello to name one), even to pretend an apologise."

User
very nice, not very good though. the terrace on the sea of polygnano is fantastic, and if you happen in a cool evening in summer I recommend to go. food is not exceptional however. in short, if it rains go elsewhere ps: the prices are good except for the Greek cicala that I imagine is a very delicious crustacean.

Ristorante Grotto Ardito in Polignano a Mare proved that sometimes appearances can be deceiving. Despite its unassuming exterior, this hidden gem by the sea offered not only a stunning view but also a culinary experience worth savoring. The fresh seafood, warm ambiance, and impeccable service made our visit truly unforgettable. So, if you find yourself in Polignano a Mare, don't hesitate to venture into Ristorante Grotto Ardito and discover the magic it has to offer.

This restaurant's food is really poor. We went for a family occasion, suckered in by the fine dining tagline on the restaurant. A lot of the menu wasn't available at all and the kids ended up ordering T-Bone veal from the menu. 10 minutes later came another apology that they only had chicken available. What eventually arrived seemed straight out of Carrefour. An insalate caprese arrived with lettuce and zero basil, flung together on a plate. The tuna steak arrived in what I can only describe as butchered for a second time. We upped and left as i didn't have the Italian vocabulary to complain properly.
