Gaia Osteria Popolare

In Monopoli's old town near the port, the Gaia Osteria Popolare is a rustic but hip place that serves traditional fare. Using recipes like nonna would make, they present nicely prepared dishes of the area's culinary traditions, with a "kilometer zero" approach (meaning everything is locally produced). Cute and welcoming atmosphere, good service, and good food with a selection of both surf and turf, including vegetarian options.
