About Us
Ristorante La Pignata, nestled in the heart of the coastal town of Otranto, is an authentic Italian culinary delight that showcases the rich heritage of the local cuisine. "La Pignata" refers to an earthenware pot traditionally used in Italian households for slow-cooking stews, symboling homey comfort and old-world charm. The menu at La Pignata is a homage to the traditions of Apulian cuisine. Local, seasonal ingredients take centre stage in a tempting variety of dishes that reflect the diversity and richness of Italy's southernmost culinary tradition. Guests can indulge in an array of delicious starters, homemade pasta dishes, and fresh seafood plates that capture the essence of the Mediterranean. Signature dishes include the 'Friselle with cherry tomatoes and oregano', 'Orecchiette with broccoli rabe', and the 'Seafood stew La Pignata' that embodies the spirit of the restaurant's name. A selection of artisanal desserts rounds out the culinary experience with a sweet touch, with the traditional 'Pasticciotto Leccese' taking the spotlight.
