SoFish

Otranto


A modern update on a traditional friggitoria, SoFish features excellent fried seafood, good salads – the one with huge slabs of seared tuna almost overflows the plate – and a concise drinks list with Salento wines by the glass and a rather good selection of Italian craft beers. The fried calamari and octopus are both also very good.
