Amélie Restaurant

Amélie Restaurant brings Italian cooking and a strong interest in wine together on Via Giuseppe Garibaldi in Maglie. Its kitchen combines familiar recipes with contemporary preparation, working with local suppliers and fishing boats. Fish from Gallipoli is a particular focus, connecting the restaurant's inland setting with the fishing communities of the Salento coast. Vegetables and seafood form part of an ingredient led approach rather than a menu confined to one kind of dish.

The starters range from burrata with rocket, lime and prawn tartare to an artichoke flan with Parmesan cream and balsamic reduction. Octopus with potatoes appears as pignata, while cuttlefish is paired with artichokes. A raw seafood selection brings together prawns, langoustines and oysters, with tartare made from tuna or the day's catch offering another option.

Pasta includes linguine with clams, langoustines, prawns, squid and cherry tomatoes, as well as orecchiette with turnip greens and stracciatella. Other choices extend to game ragù and seafood soup with pasta for two. Main courses include fish in a broth with capers, olives, potatoes and tomatoes, grilled squid, beef fillet and sliced beef with garlic butter.

The wine selection reaches beyond regional Italian labels to bottles from other countries, and sommeliers can help choose a pairing. Desserts include crema catalana, dark chocolate soufflé and lemon sorbet. Tables can be requested directly, making it possible to discuss the meal with the restaurant before visiting.
