Braceria La Grigliata
About
Braceria La Grigliata is a family‑owned, rustic steakhouse that showcases the heart‑and‑soul of Apulian cuisine. Nestled on Via Ciro Menotti in Acquaviva delle Fonti, the restaurant opens the evening door for diners seeking a warm, wood‑fired atmosphere, while also offering lunch by reservation for those who wish to enjoy a lighter spread. The menu is built around locally sourced meat, featuring recipes such as lamb shoulder, pork tenderloin, and a signature “Zampina” sausages that are still sourced directly from Calabria. Guests are drawn to the exceptional quality‑to‑price ratio, thanks to generous portions and expertly seasoned cuts, complemented by fresh local salads and traditional antipasti that highlight the flavors of the Barligite hinterland. The walls of polished timber and simple décor create a cozy setting that feels as comfortable as it drinks—making it the perfect spot for families, couples, and friends who want a relaxed yet indulgent dining experience. Braceria La Grigliata welcomes diners from Tuesday to Saturday evenings, with Sunday and Monday available by reservation. The open‑air terrace and indoor area accommodate both intimate gatherings and larger groups. Friendly, attentive staff guide guests through the menu and are known for turning first‑time visitors into regulars.
