Ristorante Antiche Mura showcases a menu deeply rooted in Puglian culinary traditions: Appetizers: Start your gastronomic journey with classics such as marinated anchovies or perhaps a creamy burrata adorned with cherry tomatoes and a drizzle of olive oil from local groves.

Signature Pasta Dishes: Dive into traditional Puglian pasta with dishes like orecchiette served with a rich ragu or trofie with fresh seafood. Mains: Highlighting the bounty of the land and sea, options might range from grilled local fish to slow-cooked lamb with rosemary and native spices. Local and Seasonal: With a strong emphasis on sourcing local, expect fresh catch from the adjacent Adriatic Sea and seasonal produce harvested from nearby farms. Historic Ambiance: Preserving the legacy of the ancient walls, the interiors might reflect a blend of stone walls, arches, and hints of frescoes – making diners feel like they're stepping back in time. Romantic Setting: With dimmed lighting, candlelit tables, and soft background music, the ambience is ideal for intimate dinners and special occasions.
