We chose this restaurant out of pure luck, attracted by its terrace on the harbor and its fishing boats. What a wonderful surprise: the food was super fresh and really good. Absolutely recommended.

My husband and I arrived late into Trani and happened across this restaurant. Ideally located across from the port. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We started with king prawns then had the chefs special seafood risotto. The young lady who served us was delightful. She gave us good wine recommendations and explained the menu for us. A very welcome introduction to the beautiful city of Trani.

We were looking for a place with a view over the port - Pelledoca definitely has that. Food was good, service very kind and professional and rose Primitivo was delicious.

We are on holiday from England. My wife, baby and I stopped here to have lunch. The best service and food I’ve experienced in a couple of years at least! Very impressed and will most definitely be back. Thank you all

Pelledoca is a MUST in Trani! Our visit (Arturo & Natalia) to Trani became special when we have our lunch at Pelledoca. Gabriel gives the best service and Carlo cooks like “heaven”. Our top was “Spaghetti allá’assasina” … the flavour is unique!!! Carlo will bring them to the table and will offer you to taste the sauce with some bread to dip directly from the pan!! That was incredible!
