Exceptionally loved Apulian street-food spot for fresh fried panzerotti and pucce at budget prices; tiny, friendly, mostly takeaway with a few seats.
I Love Panzerotti earns its A- grade through exceptional food quality—crisp, non-greasy panzerotti with fresh mozzarella and lively sauce that draws favorable comparisons to celebrated competitors—paired with outstanding service attentiveness from a genuinely warm owner. Occasional consistency dips with reheated items at off-peak times and a very limited seating area prevent grade A territory, though budget pricing and quick execution make this a solid neighborhood favorite worth seeking out for authentic Apulian street food.
In Isola, this tiny counter spot turns out freshly fried panzerotti with smiles to match. Reviewers rave about crisp, non-greasy dough and a warmly attentive owner. One diner put it simply: "Hot, melty, and surprisingly light." Space is small with a few stools inside and a couple tables outside—perfect for a quick bite. The cooking sticks to Apulian classics rather than flashy fusion: tomato-mozzarella classico, fiery 'nduja, parmigiana, plus soft pucce and focaccia. Most bites are fried to order and arrive fast; a few off-peak reports mention reheated items from the display. Portions feel like a snack-meal—great value at budget prices, best for casual eaters who appreciate simple, honest street food. Families do fine here thanks to straightforward flavors like the Classico panzerotto (€4) and Caprese puccia (€5). Seating is limited, so plan for quick counter dining or takeaway. Sweet options like pasticciotti or a Nutella panzerotto help with picky palates.
