The place
Set amid the greenery of the Salento countryside on the provincial road 129 between Sava and Torricella, La Pergola is a Mediterranean restaurant that reopened in June 2024 after fifteen years of closure, renewing its traditional cuisine. The venue celebrates the identity of the territory with ceramics, dry-stone walls and the typical lights of Salento style, offering both indoor rooms and outdoor spaces. The kitchen serves traditional dishes prepared with local ingredients, served in generous portions and accompanied by a wine list attentive to regional production.
The roots of a timeless cuisine
La Pergola was born from the idea that Mediterranean food is, above all, a shared heritage: territories, cultures and seasons that come together at the table.

In the making · Quality comes from authentic things

The selection of ingredients follows the rhythm of the seasons. Each ingredient is chosen to preserve the identity of its flavour, without excess that might alter its character.
Technique does not take precedence over the product: it guides preparations toward a result in which tradition and contemporary sensibility find common ground.
The experience at the table includes the setting and the service, not just the dish. Hospitality is an integral part of how La Pergola conceives lunch and dinner.
