Olo Kalo' - CORIGLIANO D'OTRANTO

Excellent eating excellent service very beautiful atmosphere. if they eat special and very locally to enjoy their holiday, this is the best place around

It was recommended by our Italian friend vito as one of the best local restaurants in the environment and it meets all our expectations! great fresh food with daily pre-baked meals and excellent service! thank you, we are back!

The antipasti were simply delicious. the potato sticks with pecorino cheese melted in our mouth. the otopus spheres were also great, as were the alici fish with lemon and the caramelized wobble. the house wine was delicious and not very expensive. we ordered melanzani. with melanzani and brot and cheese a dream! and mixed grilled seafood that was simply amazing! so good! many different seafoods all great. the only minus was the desert (profiteroles), which was an unusual take in the classic dessert and did not meet the standards of the previous dishes. we sat in the garden. the atmosphere was great, just as if taken out of an Italian film. the host was really nice and answered all our asking to eat patient and friendly. there would certainly be many more paints.

Literally translated in italian, but coincidentally, in Greek meaning All Good.I must say, based on this visit, that Old Kalo is a real find. On arrival, you're struck by the clash of old and new, the contemporary signage on an osteria that could't feel more...traditional. The staff were super friendly, and thanks to some great May weather, we were able to comfortably sit outside in their gorgeous back garden area. (mosquito protection necessary, fyi Although billed as a fish restaurant, we found the menu to be perfectly sized and varied, including a spaziano all carne equina (horse) , but we'd been recommended to stick with fish. The antipasto misto was almost more than enough (3 x for 4 people) with a really good selection of fish, meat and vegetables. Local wine list was to die for. A real find!

We ate lunch here today after reading some good trip advisor reviews. We can echo the previous comments that the owner is nice and friendly, he tolerated our poor Italian and made us feel welcome. We had the antipasti misti for a starter which was...a really tasty mix of various small starters. I told him I was vegetarian 'sono vegetariano so he made it without meat or fish for us. We then had 2 pasta dishes that were very nice too. Probably the nicest meal we've had on our holiday so far, having spent time in Rome, Lecce and Otranto. Definitely recommended.
