Antica Cagliari Ristorante is a well-established dining destination in the city, comprising four distinct spaces: The Restaurant, The Bistro, The Waterfront, and The Terrace. All these areas share a common philosophy of celebrating local gastronomic traditions while respecting seasonal and regional produce. Their menu features dishes inspired by both rural and maritime cultures, paired with a fine selection of regional wines.
A wonderful gem of a restaurant in Cagliari. Their chilled lobster astice style is a steal at 45€, we devoured it. Everything was very delicious here. My only qualm is that the wine is very expensive and pumped up the bill. Service is polite and friendly. Reservations are essential.

It’s a bit expensive but the food is nice. We had the fresh fried calamari which were a bit oily, but okay. Black ink pasta was okay as well. Highlight was the vongolle with bottarga which was very good. The service in general was really nice in the beginning, but then they just forgot about our table completely (we were sitting outside) and we had to get up and go inside to ask for coffees and the check.

This was one of our best meals out. Food was incredible, atmosphere was great, location and venue is beautiful, the food and service did not disappoint. We were so happy to have found a great restaurant in the centre. Would highly recommend!

This was maybe the best place we ate at in Cagliari! They only have two tables outside, and when we arrived, one was empty but had a "reserved" sign. The staff kindly checked the time and said, "They’re late – you can sit," which we really appreciated. The service was warm and attentive, and the food was absolutely excellent. Highly recommended!
Greta P — Google review
The food was average at best. Some of the grilled cuttlefish tasted burnt. Despite the fact that we only got a seat on the 3rd day, and had thought that it must be good in such a busy restaurant, it was a complete disappointment. We won't be seeing each other again.

Great food and ambience. Good service. Like the place as it has a bit luxury of luxury vibe and atmosphere even for lunch. No outside seating but still worthy. Very good choice of wine for my taste.
Ausra V — Google review
Good food and service. We had a great seabass, however the sides were quite small. Tuna tartare was aslo quite good. I would say that the interior design was a bit outdated hence 3 stars, but its the case with many italian restaurants.
Krzysztof B — Google review
A MUST VISIT when in Cagliari!!! We hadn’t made a reservation but tried our luck, and the staff made it possible despite having an already full restaurant. They even gave us complimentary prosecco while we were waiting which was so unnecessary and sweet. We had our dogs with us as well and they even set up a water bowl for them before we sat down. They go above and beyond here!!! The food. THE FOOOOOOD…. By far, the best seafood pasta (fregola) I’ve ever had in my life. My husband had the fillet with green sauce and it was also to die for. The service is impeccable, they are all so genuine and accommodating. We will definitely be back . Highly recommended, phenomenal portions and beyond fair pricing.

Restaurant
Luigi Pomata, located on Viale Regina Margherita in Cagliari, Italy, is known for its interpretation of tuna caught by the fleet of the island of San Pietro. The restaurant is considered one of the great dining options in the city. Over the past decade, Cagliari has emerged as a gourmet destination with a changing culinary landscape. Notable openings like Cucina.
Excellent food and service at a very reasonable price for this level of quality. Most of the staff spoke decent English and were helpful with the menu. We were well looked after by waiter Paulo Forge at lunch hemade us feel very welcome. Later that evening, after exploring the Regina Margherita area for dinner options, we ended up back at Luigi Pomata. Paulo and his team welcomed us warmly again. We decided to try the degustation menu with matching wines. Paulo explained each dish and was happy to chat about the area and the restaurant. Highly recommend this place plenty of indoor seating and alfresco tables. We enjoyed sitting outside and making the most of the late spring weather.

We had a great evening at Luigi Pomata. We took the tuna tasting menu. The food was good though not as special as we hoped for. The chef advise us on very good wines, the service was very kind and made no issue when we asked to swap desert for cheese for instance.
CF — Google review
A really nice place with great food selection and excellent wine list! This experience made me reconsider my relationship with the tuna fish! Even if you have considered tuna as your least favorite, be brave and try it here! Also they have great selection of local and international wines, they even had an option from Hungary! Amazing kitchen, amazing people and amazing experience! A must visit place for sure!
Imre V — Google review
Absolutely outstanding experience! I was genuinely impressed by the food, service, and the overall approach to guests — everything felt thoughtfully curated and full of warmth. The chef was incredibly kind and truly fantastic, both in skill and attitude. The dessert is an absolute must! Not only is it delicious, but the presentation is a performance in itself — served directly at the table in a way that turns the end of your meal into a real event. This is the kind of place where you feel taken care of, and every detail speaks of passion and professionalism. Highly recommended!

Diego R — Google review
My first time in Cagliari couldn’t have started with anything less than Luigi Pomata, arguably the best restaurant in the city. I had the Menu Degustazione which, at that price of Euro 85, is a bargain for the quality of the food I was about to have. Their speciality is tuna, but, be aware, this is not just tuna, it THE BEST TUNA that you will ever eat in Italy, possibly in Europe! This red tuna, tonno rosso in Italian, and the way they cook it is nothing short of magnificent. The full list of what I had is in the picture of the menu, and everything was incredible, from start to finish. The flavours are delicate and strong in the sense of packing a punch without overwhelming the palate. This is great cooking that constantly delivers excellence but does not make a fuzz about it. They prefer delivering fantastic food without fireworks or too much noise. The fireworks come towards the end, when, after finishing the meal, I noticed a dessert that I did not notice when reading the menu. This is an homage to Grant Achaz of A linea in Chicago, but it’s done in Sardinian-Luigi Pomata style, and it’s a feast of chocolate, fresh fruits, and much, much more . I saw it on the table of a dining couple near me, and had a serious attack if food envy. So much so that I ordered it, despite the fact that I had finished my meal already. I’m glad I did ! The service, from the chef, Luigi himself, who comes to the table in person to advise and, for some dishes, serving them to you himself, to the waiting staff, to the Sommelier, everybody was friendly, caring, smiley, and sweet. A perfect experience that I will probably repeat as soon as I’m back in Cagliari. Thank you to all of you !

We’ve had an amazing experience at Luigi Pomata. The beef fillet was full of flavour, medium to perfection, literally melting in your mouth while the cuttlefish rice had a unique delicious taste, al dente. The restaurant atmosphere, however, seemed quite serious.

Italian restaurant
Corso Dodici is a charming Italian restaurant in Cagliari, set up by a new generation of restaurateurs. It has quickly become popular among locals due to its stylish and timeless decor, featuring wooden beams, mirrors, and vintage photos adorning the walls. The restaurant's prime location near the marina adds to its appeal. What sets Corso Dodici apart is its affordable prices combined with beautifully executed dishes that showcase classic Italian flavors.
Matteo was a lovely server! He was attentive, kind, and helpful with what to order. He made us feel welcomed. The food came out fresh and fast! Wine was smooth, octopus-peach salad & tagliatelle garlic chili oil was DIVINE. The berry cheesecake was such a great finisher. 10/10 recommend this restaurant & plenty of space indoors + outdoors.
Itzel V — Google review
Corso Dodici has a really nice atmosphere, especially if you get a table on the terrace. It’s stylish but still relaxed, and the staff were genuinely kind and attentive throughout our meal. The food was very good overall, not mind-blowing, but definitely enjoyable. The beef polpette were the standout: tender, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The carbonara was tasty but a bit too salty for our taste. Still, it was a great dinner and we’d happily come back for the ambiance and service alone
Victoria G — Google review
We visited Corsi Dodici on an August evening and found a table quite easily thanks to our online reservation. The restaurant is located in a very central spot, yet it’s pleasantly tucked away from the main pedestrian flow, so you can enjoy your meal without disturbance. The only downside is that a few of the outdoor tables are positioned near a small municipal trash bin, which slightly detracts from the otherwise charming atmosphere. Service was excellent — genuinely friendly and attentive without feeling forced. We ordered a salad, tartare, beef meatballs, carbonara, and a rib eye steak. Overall, the food was good, with the meatballs and carbonara standing out as highlights. The tartare was unique in style but flavorful, while the rib eye was a bit overcooked for my liking, as I had requested medium rare. All in all, it was a pleasant dining experience, with fair prices, very good service, and generally good food — a place worth visiting if you’re in the area.

We had a really nice evening at Corso Dodici. The terrace is a great place to sit, charming and comfortable, and the whole place has a relaxed, welcoming feel. The staff were very kind and friendly, which made the experience even better. The food was good, though not unforgettable. The beef polpettes were fantastic, super flavorful and well done while the carbonara, although creamy and rich, was a bit on the salty side. All in all, a solid spot with good food, a nice setting, and excellent service.
Delia R — Google review
I love the starter and soufflé (chocolate cake) but the Angus meat was not the best for me. However, the quality of the food and service was excellent overall. We had reservation online so didn’t have a problem to find a table. But it gets full during dinner.
Simona T — Google review
My friend and I visited on a Thursday evening and we are SO glad to have come across Corso Dodici. The service was prompt and friendly. A little patience goes a long way as we were sat outside and it was a little busy when we arrived. It is understandable and we enjoyed the bustling atmosphere in between dishes! We ordered the salmon tartare (starter), scampi paccheri and potato culurgiones (mains), tiramisu (dessert) and Aperol Spritz (Sardinian style!). Lovely dishes - each bite was intensely delicious! Thank you to the team for a great dinner! ☺️

Delicious food, we had the carbonara and a risotto. Was really amazing. Waiters didn't seem very happy to serve or bring drinks despite us being there early/before any rush, which was a bit frustrating.

We had a delicious meal here and even better service. Fabritzio, our waiter was amazing and spoke perfect English. He had great suggestions from both the food and wine menus and made sure we had a memorable night. We started with the tuna tartare which was delicious and then shared the paccheri, steak, calamari and pork meatballs (absolutely outstanding) and finished with the Nutella cheesecake. We would definitely recommend if you are visiting Cagliari. Thank you Fabritzio for a fabulous night!

Mediterranean restaurant
Nestled in the heart of Cagliari, Da Marino al St. Remy is a culinary gem that beautifully marries traditional Mediterranean flavors with modern twists. Housed in a charmingly restored historic building, this elegant restaurant offers an intimate and refined dining experience. Chef Marino, drawing from his extensive background in prestigious European hotels, crafts each dish with care using only the freshest ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, complemented by attentive staff who enhance your visit.
I’ve eaten almost all over the world, and this restaurant ranks as one of the best! From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding. The staff take the time to explain and guide you through the menu, so any questions are answered with care. The amuse-bouche was spectacular, and I also enjoyed a delicious limoncello. I tried the sabayone, which usually comes with fruit, but since I live outside Italy, I always look for a great sabayone and requested it plain—and it was absolutely spectacular. The atmosphere is sophisticated and elegant, even on a day when it was a bit warm. If you’re in Cagliari, this restaurant is a must-visit. The only “negative” is that there’s no private parking, but it doesn’t affect the experience at all.
Ana F — Google review
I feel bad giving them 4 stars but unfortunately our experience did not warrant a 5-star review. We liked the atmosphere and loved the service. The tuna tartare was very tasty and different from the more acidic versions we had elsewhere and the desserts were amazing. However, the pumpkin ravioli that I ordered was very bland and all I could taste besides the truffle was the dough. The seafood spaghetti was a better choice but it did not meet our expectations either. I'd go back but would not order the pasta dishes.

One of the best ever dining experience. Everything was great, welcoming, atmosphere, happy & professional staff, every single detail, spot on.

If you find this review helpful in some way, please give it a Like. Thanks ... This restaurant offered prix fixe dinner menu of fine dining & it was definitely pricey. There were three of us in our group & we came here after sightseeing, so, we were in shorts. The other diners were in pants & dresses but not overly dressed up. The uncouth Americans. The staff was professional & discreetly polite though I'm sure they wished we were dressed up a bit more. We got there early for our reservation which was at 7:30 PM and they couldn't seat us as the staff was preparing to open. We went to a nearby cafe for some glasses of wine. In hindsight, I would recommend making reservations about 8:30 or 9:00 PM and settle into drinks & dinner for the night. The menu focused on seafood - fish, prawns (we ordered second helping), calamari - and everything was super-fresh & tasty. The servings were small (almost tasting size), so, don't expect large portions of pasta. We did have to make up some of our appetites with delicious selections from the freshly baked bread basket. Two desserts were included. I'm not generally a fan of creamy desserts - they were just alright for me. They did go down well with the espresso though. I'm glad I got to experience this restaurant but will probably not come back due to the price & the amount of food served.

I can't say enough good things about the lunch we had here. Absolutely one of the top meals we have ever had and my husband and I love to travel and eat. From the very start we felt welcome and while the restaurant is upscale it never felt stuffy, the service was warm and perfectly paced. The food is creative and there's clearly a focus on working with quality seasonal ingredients. And Marino himself is so friendly and lovely. We cannot wait to return and would love to do the full tasting menu when we come back.

Excellent service! Great food! It’s a little expensive, but for the quality of food and excellent service, it’s worth it. The portions are small, but the taste of the dishes were really delicious. Great recommendation of wine for our meal. The staff really know what they are doing. The balsamic vinegar they have was the best one we’ve ever tasted. There was a sweetness to it, and it was well balanced, in a beautiful bottle. They had a selection of bread in their bread basket. Sardinia speciality bread, sultana and walnut one, and a plain one which was soft. Definitely leave space for dessert after. They prepared it on the spot and was so well presented and delicious! Would recommend!

Book your reservation in advance, then settle in for an evening of pleasure. Marino and the staff are top of their class. Have a question? They will answer it for you. Forgot your glasses? Marino will appear bearing a small handmade box with a selection of different strengths for you to use. The teams attention to detail is a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is very comfortable lending itself to an intimate setting for friends, family and couples. The food dishes will be beautifully presented, taste amazing and if you are the type to photograph your food then it will be difficult to resist doing so.

One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Turned up without booking, upon recommendation from a Sardinian colleague. Everything was exceptional: food/ service/ ambiance. Amazing flavours and felt like such a treat how each dish was served. Truffle featured heavily in choices, and loved how they shave it fresh at the table. Hope to return soon, fantastic & definitely great value for money.

Dal Corsaro is an Italian restaurant in Cagliari which has been awarded a Michelin star. Dishes embracing seasonality and simplicity have won the restaurant its accolade, with seven, nine and eleven-course menus available. The kitchen is run by young Stefano Deidda, who has a mastery of transforming traditional Sardinian ingredients into delicately refined dishes that never disappoint.
My first visit to a Michelin starred restaurant. It's an unforgettable experience, everything was fantastically delicious. The design of dishes at the highest level, an unusual presentation that will be remembered for a long time. Very friendly and professional service as well as the atmosphere in the restaurant itself. Definitely recommend visiting this restaurant.

I may have missed out on some of the photos of the dishes that the Chef made for us last night but wowzer… the Dinner was a night to remember . The food was so delicious . Every single dish just exploded in our mouth and we drained them down with equally amazing Wine that was paired with our dishes . It is a must go place if one is okay with spending good money on great food and an experience. So worth it . Thank you 😊…

If you enjoy a fine dine experience or can appreciate food that's thoughtfully put together to compliment flavours and balance, you cannot look any further than Dal Corsaro. Leaving aside the fact it's a Michelin star restaurant, the service, the food, the experience and the ambiance is second to non to any other in Cagliari. You really do on a good journey from the first dish to the last and the paired wines add a little something extra!

We opted for the 7 products menu, I like every dish that we are served. We both love seafood, so the cuttlefish, the lobster soup, the cuttlefish ink jelly with cuttlefish, sous vide red mullet were my highlight. And their amuse-bouche are truly intriguing, the oysters, and spinach pocket and the sangria choco ice ball(in 1 gulp). Wines are reasonably priced and have a big wine selection. Service is good, especially when they make an effort to accommodate my lactose intolerance and explain each dish in English.

I didn't expect too much coming here. During most of our Italy trips we enjoyed the local, basic cuisine most. The fine dining mostly paled in comparison. But this was completely different! The chef offered a fixed menu only (choice between nr of courses and wine tasting). The service was elegant and flawless. The wines selected were exclusively Sardinian and marvellous. (Not one remark, like angels pissing on your tongue). The courses were magnificent. What stood out was the taste pallets. Very hard to describe and sometimes totally unexpected (the beef tartare with the Asian leaf on top gave me goosebumps). An absolute delight and worth 2 Michelin stars (minimum).

Sabores, formerly known as Sapori di Sardegna, is a charming spot located in Cagliari. The store offers a delightful selection of raw milk cheeses, local cured meats, and natural wines. Additionally, there's a kitchen corner where simple yet well-prepared dishes are crafted daily. Visitors can enjoy the ambiance by grabbing a table outside and indulging in the recommended wine while people-watching. The establishment is highly praised for its fantastic food, natural wine offerings, and exceptional service.
Lovely little spot for some local selections for dinner and the wine recommendation was spot on. I believe the menu changes each day but uploaded a version for our eve for an idea. Thank you for having us!!

Sabores offers a delightful taste of Sardinian cuisine in the heart of Cagliari. This charming little bistrot serves up beautifully crafted dishes, highlighting the island's fresh, local ingredients. From traditional pasta like malloreddus to flavorful seafood and succulent meats, each plate bursts with authentic flavors. I opted for local charcuterie and their massive locally grown cote du boeuf! The warm, inviting atmosphere and attentive service make it a perfect spot for a relaxed yet memorable meal. Whether you're a local or a visitor, Sabores is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to experience some of the best of Sardinian dining!

Great dinner place if you’re looking for regional specialties! We had the back ribs and the melanzane arrostite, both very tasty. Accompanied by one of the best homemade breads here in Italy. If you’re very hungry make sure to order some local cheese or meat assortment as a starter, since the portions are not too big (although, for me it was perfect).

We visited Sabores twice for dinner in the last years and went back tonight for dinner … what a disappointment! Staff was barely any friendly, the one lady whom we paid our ridiculously expensive bill to would not even look at us when paying! Not a single waiter to greet you when leaving after waisting €120 for 2! That place used to be good, reason why we went back, who knows what happened! Cheese platter did not make any sense, 4 cheeses out of 6 were similar strong paste strong cheeses, terrible choice to go with anchovies! Anchovy dish simply consists of good anchovies out of a can, not much was cooked in this dish, so is the rest of the dishes! Products are good quality for sure but the little arrangements done to them aren’t of much interest! The tiramisu was almost off putting! Great local wines but the bill ends up way too expensive for what we got served considering not much cooking happens back there! Feels like a total scam in this city where you’d rather spend the evening at some charming old trattoria rather than in some soulless natural wine lover trap!

In the past, this cozy pub and pizzeria by the marina transformed into a sophisticated seafood bistro under the guidance of head chef Roberto Raccis. The new direction emphasizes simplicity, utilizing fresh local ingredients and avoiding elaborate food presentation. Visitors can enjoy dishes like trofie with clams, courgette flowers, and saffron or sea bass cooked in Sardinian Vernaccia wine.
You must reserve ahead of time to get a spot here. We booked a day in advance for a Saturday night dinner, the waitress is amazing she works so incredibly hard at her job. The food is impeccable, I had the octopus for entree and lobster tagliatelle for my main. Both were cooked to perfection and flavoursome. It’s not super obvious but you have to ring the bell to get the staffs attention if you’re waiting out front. We loved it!

Our meals were delicious and the seafood very fresh. I particularly enjoyed the tuna carpaccio, artichokes and mushrooms. The entrance is discreet but once inside it is very comfortable. The staff were very professional and just the right balance of friendly and attentive. Martinelli’s was recommended to us by locals and I can understand why this is the restaurant they love to come back to ! It’s a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it!

Libarium Nostrum is a stylish rooftop bar located in Cagliari, offering stunning panoramic views of the city and the sea. Visitors can indulge in antipasti, pasta, and pizza while sipping on aperitifs as they take in the breathtaking sunset. The hilltop terrace provides an ideal setting for enjoying cocktails with a picturesque backdrop. This trendy spot is perfect for those seeking a memorable experience with delicious food and scenic vistas.
We were there during lunch time and didn’t have a reservation but still were able to find a table. If you would like to sit upper part where you can see the view, you should do a reservation as they separate that area for the reservations. The food and cocktails were amazing. The tomato pasta I had was very delicious. I didn’t like the tiramisu though. The service was amazing and very attentive. Definetely recommend here for lunch, dinner or drinks.

It's difficult to get a table without a reservation. The landlord is the kind who adds a 20.20 euro service charge to the bill. I didn't find a note on the menu, not even at libariummenu or did I overlook it? Discussion with the waiter was pointless, he referred me to the owner. In 7 weeks of travelling around Sardinia, this has never happened to me before. If a nice evening ends like this and you feel mocked, just 1 point. But it's not about the 20.20 but about the manner, otherwise I would have paid Coperto. Service: 3 stars only 1 head waiter for the terrace supported by 2 colleagues. The aperitif glasses were cleared away with the dessert plates. That's how I would have rated it otherwise: Overall: 4

Aspiring to bring the very best of Sardinia's cuisine and wine to their patrons, the five founders of Principi di Dan set out to create a restaurant that combined the individual skills of its staff in various culinary disciplines, oenology, archaeology, culture and tourism. With dishes that can be ordered at any price point, Principi di Dan is a popular spot for anyone looking for an authentic taste of Sardinia.
Unquestionably one of the best meals during our time in Sardinia. The waitress made an effort to explain each dish (including the origin of its ingredients) in both Italian and English. She made us try different local wines and helped us with the selection that best suits our tastes. The service was warm and welcoming and the food was heartwarming. We would come back any time.

Quote bad food for Sardinia Had mixed starter and then roasted pig. Not good by Sardinia standards. Both quite bad in fact. They serve really bad wine in a carafe. I guess it’s in a nice piazza and geared towards tourists but even then after 2 weeks here as a tourist this was the worst meal. In Sardinia where you can get fantastic wine for 8 euros a bottle in shops this place serves horrible jug wine. Can’t get a glass of anything else. Have to buy a bottle. Only place in Italy I’ve heard this. The servers can’t be flexible at all. I’d stay away So many good choices everywhere.

Normal Price. We choose the menu for 22€. From Starter to Primi Piatti, nothing tasted great. Most of the stuff being dry,fatty or overloaded with cheese. The 4 formaggi lasagna…we could not finish because it was just a undefinable soup of cheese. Not to be recommended! Staff is very friendly. Water can be ordered for 1€ House Beer is good with the menu. But to expensive for what you get, if ordered separately. Attention with the bill! They wanted to sneak drinks on the bill which are included in the menu…

Italian restaurant
Josto, located near Piazza del Carmine in the heart of Cagliari, is a restaurant owned by chef Pierluigi Fais. Known for his modern interpretation of Sardinian cuisine while staying true to traditional flavors, Fais has made a name for himself with other successful establishments in the area. Josto has been recognized by the Michelin Guide as a Bib Gourmand for its excellent value and is praised for its contemporary atmosphere.
Our experience at Josto was so good I could cry. I admire a restaurant that evokes a feeling, and I was so connected to the space (and my handsome love/date) that I forgot to take pics of the restaurant itself, but the art on the wall is a conversation starter. Environment aside, the folks who served us were engaged and helpful, offering a recommendation to try to starter quartet, which set the magic in motion. The tomato starter with bottarga was the definition of umami (my mouth is watering as I write this a week later). The other starters were all balanced and savory. Incredibly satisfying. The life-changing really happened with the mains, though. I can’r adequately describe the sweet, comforting, delicateness of the prawn tartare pasta. It was a sensory memory that will stay with me forever. The fregula stew was a marine dream—tender stewed mussels and fish, perfectly seasoned broth, and al dente fregula pasta—a hug from your grandma’s kitchen. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, please feed your soul here. For what it’s worth, we came in May and called ahead to make a reservation with ease, but it may be worth making a reservation far in advance if you’re visiting in the summer. Cheers!

I cannot sing higher praises for Josto, which was the best meal I had in my entire 10 day trip to Sardinia. I started with a red shrimp, which came raw and skewered, along with its head filled with a rich broth that you consume in a single sip -- rich tasting but light. This was followed by a tasting of house-cured fish/shellfish, expertly aged to achieve a more flavorful profile of each seafood. These included slivered squid, aged lean tuna, red shrimp, amberjack, and another white fish. The seafood pasta topped with lightly chopped shrimp served with a red sauce was perfectly balanced, as the staff instructed me not to stir the sauce to enjoy the tangy touch of the tomato sauce as it kissed the al dente noodles. Finally, I had a perfectly cooked fish fillet with crunchy skin, topped with fleur de sel and a side of carrots. Delish! I paired each course with wine that was expertly suggested by the sommelier. Highly recommended!

I took my wife for her birthday to Josto and it was a near-perfect experience. We both chose the tasting menu which we could barely finish, but every dish was exquisite and well presented. What I truly enjoyed was the perfectly balanced atmosphere. On one hand, sophisticated and elegant food, on the other hand a friendly and comfortable vibe from the waiters and staff as well as from the vinyl player in the corner. Amazing food and some Dire Straits, i don’t need more. We felt the whole wine pairing was a bit much, yet they really felt we’d be missing out so they offered to share a wine pairing for the 2 of us (trust me, the glasses didn’t look like half glasses). Top class experience, definitely would come back!

Josto is a mandatory restaurant in Cagliari! The interior is already a piece of art with a plus of the kitchen exposed where you can watch the chefs finalizing the courses. The staff and services were impeccable, giving you complete explanations about the courses. They have a sommelier that can guide you through their large list of good wines from Sardinia and the stories about the producers behind some bottles. Food is delicious, no words to describe it! The whole experience, environment was amazing, thanks Josto!

A place that’s made it to the top of our fine dining experiences in Cagliari. The service was very kind, the dishes were interesting and beautifully presented. While the last two courses had slightly overpowering flavours for our taste, even my partner, who usually appreciates everything, felt the same. It may come down to personal preference. The dessert wasn’t a standout for us, but overall, the food was very good, and the wine list was particularly impressive. We’ll definitely return with friends.

- Went without a reservation so got an outside seating. The food was great, I would say a bit pricier as a tourist location (that it has become) but in my opinion worth it if you fancy the menu. The sauces and fillings are on point 🙏 - Two things for which I won't give 5/5, the first one being the really quick service. I almost never complain about that but the dishes were probably not made upon our order, that would have been impossible time wise. As I thought this would be a slow food kind of place it felt more that they wanted volumes of clients (at least for the non reserved tables). Also, the Casu furriau (pecorino) had too little honey on it too feel the sweetness with the cheese.

It’s a very busy place - we waited about 30 minutes to be seated, but it was well worth it. The food was delicious, and the wine they recommended was a great match.

This place was absolutely amazing the pasta dishes were delicate and amazing and also the sauce was not overpowering but just enough. Also I had the donkey which is not pictured and it is like a stew of roast beef, similar in flavor. Pro-tip is it looks like the restaurant is small and only one section but if you walk through the kitchen to the back where the bathroom is it's a lot more lively and twice as big that's where you should sit up on entering. I highly recommend this place and believe that it is underrated. We also had a pilsner beer and the red beer in my opinion the red beer one and was amazing as well.

We had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. From the moment we arrived, the service was below expectations. We had a reservations for 8 and we even have to switch tables after being sitting for some time. The staff member who attended to us didn’t understand English and made no effort to communicate or try to understand us, always rushing us which made the entire experience frustrating and uncomfortable. As for the food, it lacked flavor and care. The carbonara, for example, had only three small pieces of bacon, and the overall taste was bland. Other pasta dishes were also missing ingredients mentioned on the menu, which made us feel like we weren’t getting what we paid for. The antipasti(appetizers) were served after the food and the quantity was unadjusted from the price and number of people. (meat/cheese plate as it is on the picture was 17 euros). Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this place, there was no effort from the staff.

To finish, we tried a unique tiramisu made with traditional Sardinian crispbread, which was a delightful twist on the classic dessert. The portions were very generous — one dish could easily satisfy two people with a very affordable price. The waiters were extremely kind and gave great recommendations when it came to local Sardinian specialties. The atmosphere of the place was also lovely.

After seeing many good reviews of this restaurant, we decided to try some authentic Sardinian cuisine. Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. We ordered the Sardinian piglet, which was very dry with too many bones and excess fat. The roast lamb, which we requested medium rare, came out overcooked and extremely dry. The snails with spicy tomato sauce were served very quickly, but they were lukewarm and not spicy at all. The carbonara was decent compared to the other dishes but still nothing special. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant as there are many other better options available. It was a disappointing dining experience.

We sat in a room full of multigenerational families and watched and enjoyed as each table received dish after dish after dish of regional food. We ordered a fritto misto platter and a whole fish, among other things and we too got the "full treatment" down to a shot of Mirto after dinner. We felt so HONORED to dine amongst the families there and be treated as they were. What a fabulous experience.

Great lunch ambience. Too old school for us to fully enjoy the food. The fregula had no bite and seemed to be a cheap substitute for the real artisanal deal.

Seems very local with AMAZING food. Got the octopus salad , fried calamari, and deep fried fish and ate everything with bread and olive oil. It tasted really good and we had an amazing fast service. The host so really nice and funny. Fresh seafood displayed in the front and did not smell fishy at all. Definitely come early or book reservations !

Restaurant
Stella Marina Di Montecristo is a renowned restaurant in Cagliari, Sardinia, offering an authentic and delightful seafood dining experience. Despite being Michelin-starred, it provides classic Sardinian dishes without the hefty price tag. The fixed lunch menu offers three courses of delectable seafood options. For a refreshing waterside drink, visitors can head to Emerson or La Paillote, both owned by former Cagliari star Francois Modesto.
We had a great experience here. The seafood held a high standard and the way we were served food was fun. I especially liked the starter platter and the fregola. The restaurant is quite hidden and it feels a bit like stepping into someone’s living room, in a good way!

I really recommend this restaurant, last week when my best friend came here, we took her to this restaurant for lunch, she said it’s the BEST FISH that she ever had, and that she didn’t know you can make fish this good. They have a fixed menu, so even if you don’t understand Italian or know how to order, it’s okay. It was a weekday, but still kind of packed, so I recommend you to book it in advance. We will definitely come again.

I feel that this place is just inaccessible or they are totally not open to foreigners/non Italian speakers. Even though I came early, they said they are fully booked, I tried calling them several times on the number provided, no one picks up, so it’s almost impossible to make a reservation. I also tried to reserve via Whatsapp, which didn’t work, even in low season. I feel there are way too many better places in Cagliari with excellent customer service and fresh seafood ;) No luck here.

Great food and experience. As expected from other reviews no choice on menu except wine/red wine and aqua con gas or not. Everyone gets the same thing (except if you are 3 years old). The lace looked closed when we got there, a bit dark. My wife was very skeptical until the first course arrived. Was full of people when we left. Use what's app to get reservation.

These star ratings do not express how excellent this place is!!!! We had dinner last night there, booked by a dear friend of ours. From start to finish, it was hands down a 1 of a kind experience. Especially for fish, seafood lovers.. 😋. 1stly, it is not a buffet, and it is not a la carte. We had a 'chef created' 4 course range. Fully loaded with all sorts of deliciousness 😋 . The shrine created for the much loved late Gigi Riva is so sweet and soulful. The owner and the waiter are very professional yet warm. The passion for their local produce is encouraging. I would highly recommend it for excellent food, customer service, and soulfulness all at excellent prices!!

An overall charming experience. This place is like going back in time. The only dining option is a fixed menu for €35 per person, whether you go at lunch or dinner. The fixed menu removes any pressure for people who have a hard time choosing (like me 😅) or who suffer from FOMO. It varies a bit based on what fish they get that day, but we had: mixed seafood antipasti, fregula with chrevette, and as the last course sea bass and fried calamari. All this was accompanied by water, wine, bread, and some shots of mirto to cap it off. All the seafood was super fresh. Any criticisms of the food were minor and very subjective: a bit more salt here, a bit less breading there. I’d definitely recommend it for anyone who likes seafood. The restaurant is a dark windowless room whose theme can best be described as “soccer and sea,” and which feels highly authentic compared to the newer more modern restaurants in Cagliari. The owner and waiter were both very nice, with the owner coming to the table after each course to ask how everything was. How a restaurant should be! Definitely reserve. We stopped by on a Saturday night to reserve for Monday lunch.

Best quality for price in town. This place is genuine and food is delicious. It’s like traveling back in time to a dimension of authenticity, extremely fresh food and uncompromising hospitality. We had a full 4 course menu comprised of a large antipasto di mare, fregola with shrimps, fried and grilled fish, fruit wine. Giacomo the owner comes in the end with free shots of mirto :) Make sure to reserve in advance - go in person or send and sms if you don’t manage by phone - and be ready to eat a lot of good food for a ridiculously low price.

Sa Piola is a Sardinian restaurant with a colorful and relaxed atmosphere. The menu features dishes inspired by local products, which are lightly re-interpreted into creative dishes that nevertheless retain their traditional flavors. Lunch and dinner services are available, and the restaurant serves alcohol. Reservations are accepted, and there is outdoor seating as well as seating for those with disabilities.
I recently had the pleasure of dining there, and it was, without a doubt, the best seafood experience I’ve ever had. The seafood was impeccably fresh and masterfully prepared. Each dish showcased the chef’s dedication to quality and flavor, leaving my taste buds in awe. The variety and presentation were top-notch, making it a feast for both the eyes and the palate.  But the culinary journey didn’t stop there. The dessert was equally impressive - rich, flavorful, and the perfect ending to an already outstanding meal. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience with their warm hospitality. If you’re in Cagliari and have a passion for seafood, Sa Piola is an absolute must - visit. I would rate it 6 out of 5 if I could!

The dinner was great, I had an amazing pasta to start with and slowcooked lamb as main. The lamb fell of the bone. The sauce it came in was amazing and I finished that with the bread they served on the side. My significant other had a great lemon soup with clams and slowcooked beef as main. Both dishes where great. The slowcooked/braised beef was my personal favorite.

Il Birrificio di Cagliari is Sardinia's first brew pub, offering a light and airy space to sample a variety of craft beers brewed on site.

The bar and restaurant also incorporate beer into many dishes on the menu, including desserts like Tiramisu with Casteddu beer and cocktails like the Spritz Hell.
We loved our visit here. Marco behind the bar was so friendly and helpful. We had a taster tray with 5 beers and he carefully explained each one. We then choose our favourite for a large glass.

Out of the centre but ready to get to with various buses running up the busy road (not easy to cross!) Beers were based on standards but were impressive with good typicity and flavours, the prickly pear wheat was, surprisingly, lovely... Like rose petals! There's a beer tasting tray available, and there were 8 beers on tap when I visited, all well made and tasty. The lovely copper brewkit is visible through the windows in the bar, which is much bigger than I expected! Looks to do really good food but I was too early...

Pizza restaurant
Framento is a pizzeria and craft beer spot located in an industrial-chic space with stone arches, wood beams, and a garden. It was established in 2015 by chef Pierluigi Fais and is known for its contemporary approach to pizza. The restaurant is set to move to a five-story building with a terrace, where the concept will expand beyond just pizza.
We came to Framento twice during our stay in Cagliari. The first time, we asked to be seated on the rooftop, which has a really nice atmosphere, great sunset views, chill music, and a cool vibe overall. Unfortunately, we were rushed through the meal, which was a bit frustrating, especially since it took quite a while for the food to come out. That said, once it arrived, it was absolutely worth the wait. The second visit was a much better experience, relaxed, same great food, and no pressure to rush. The Sarda pizza is especially delicious, one of the best we had in Sardinia. If you’re willing to wait a bit, the quality of the pizza here is definitely worth it. And the rooftop at sunset is hard to beat.

Located on a strip of other beautiful local restaurants and bistros, this spot is a must-try in Cagliari. We had the fresh salad and the oliveira pizza, which had a savory olive paste, fresh pecorino, and preserved lemon. Service was top-notch and attentive, prices are incredible for the quality, location is convenient (although pretty busy in the summer, so try to visit in the spring), and the food, as mentioned, is outstanding.

At Framento, we ordered a Margherita (€8.50) and a Capricciosa (€13) — both visible in the photos below. The pizzas had an average taste and were a bit too burnt for our preference, so I would give them a 3-star rating. One strange thing was that the menu didn’t include a basic pizza with just ham and cheese. A good thing, however, is that the pizzeria was open between 3 PM and 6 PM, while most other restaurants in the area only open from 6 or 7 PM onwards. We paid between €10 and €20 per person.

Framento makes some of the best pizza we had in Cagliari. We went twice and both times the food was excellent, especially the Sarda pizza, which was full of bold, local flavors. The first time we sat on the rooftop, which has a great atmosphere, nice music, a beautiful sunset, but we felt really rushed by the staff, even though the food took a long time to arrive. That part was disappointing. Thankfully, the pizza totally delivered when it finally came, and our second visit was much smoother all around. No rushing, same delicious food. It’s a popular spot, and for good reason. Just be prepared for a wait, and try to grab a rooftop table if you can.

The restaurant Osteria Kobuta perfectly embodies its essence with a name that reflects both Sardinian and Japanese influences. The owner and main chef, Riccardo Porceddu, is an active entrepreneur who frequently collaborates with other Marina district establishments to organize events. During happy hour, they offer typical Japanese street food that can be enjoyed on the go. On Sundays for lunch, they provide special menus.
This place was truly fantastic. We came for the interesting fusion of Sardinian and Japanese food, and it did not disappoint! We had the tasting menu which I recommend, 7 courses. This included mackerel bao buns, pasta, pork, soft boiled egg, swordfish ceviche, and courgette with dried tuna. All was excellent! The service was also great - our waiter went the extra mile and was very knowledge and friendly. We are so glad we went, I would truly recommend to anyone looking for something fantastic and different in Cagliari!

The place is very nice with kind staff and tasty food. They have a type of pasta “fregula” which apparently was awarded in a TV show. It had a touch of spicyness and a fish pieces on top. I am not a fan of sea food but this was nice. The ramen was tasty as well. What I liked the most was 2 things though, 1 - “matchamisu” which is a matcha powder version of tiramisu. I recommend trying that desert :) 2 - the starter “gyoza” which were juicy and fried at the same time, very delicious! They have different menu for each day so some things may not be available everyday. For example the day we went (a monday), there was only 1 type of ramen.

Awesome concept; food was unique and tasty, with a lot of sous vide techniques being used. We had the tasting menu with wine pairing; which was nice (but pricey); and I think the a la carte would've provided more variety. The service was slightly chaotic though; for some courses, the wine wasn't served until several mins after the food. Also the wine servings were very conservative...

Local cuisine that's a fusion of Japanese and Sardinian culture. The chef is originally from Sardinia, and spent 10 to 15 years in Japan, learning all the skills and dishes there, which he then returned to Sardinia taking with him all his learned skills, to open his own restaurant and successfully carve a very versatile range of delicious dishes. I went twice, ordered a range of chef specials and all were very nice. Definitely recommend and would advise to book a reservation early as it tends to fill up quickly. Pictures supplied are what I ordered over the 2 nights.

Riccardo (owner and chef of osteria kobuta) is a welcoming person, able to entertain his guests with complete explanations of his recipes and choices on the presented food.

I'll visit him again on my next holiday in this beautiful island.

This wonderful surprise surrounded by the touristy Cagliari marina serves up haute cuisine that would be at home in the finest restaurants of Paris, New York or Tokyo. Who even knew Japanese-Sardinian fusion was a thing, but are we ever glad we stopped in here! Exquisite flavors and balanced dishes with a very casual ambience. The ouvo e ouva (sous vide egg topped with decadent fish egg mousse and lentils) and the smoked veal with mashed potatoes were particularly special. Highly recommend if you're looking for a unique twist on sardinian cuisine.

Tandoori is a specialized restaurant that focuses on the preparation of Indian cuisine, showcasing a wide array of spices and unique flavors from different regions in India.

Additionally, they offer customized items not listed on the menu and provide valuable recommendations for exploring the area.
We wanted something different than the Sardinian menu after eating it for many days, and this was a good change of pace. The restaurant atmosphere is very nice and the food was delicious.

Thus place is amazing, I can recommend. So far, the most beautiful Indian restaurant I've seen :) Food is great and they offer also some options I didn't see in other Indian restaurants, so thumbs up for that. When it comes to spice, they use very mild amounts in my opinion which is great for normal people. But I love extremely hot food so they brought me their salsa, which was very nice 🙂 The staff was also very nice and helpful. Great job and I hope to visit again!

Came to Tandoori a few weeks ago with my parents and my boyfriend. I wasn't prepared to taste the best indian food I ever had! The quality of the ingredients and the care of the chef really shines through, the food was flavourful and not greasy at all. We had appetisers, four mains and dessert and the whole table was utterly happy and satisfied at the end of the meal. The portions were sizeable and honestly the price was extremely reasonable (if not cheap) for the amount we ordered. I would reccomment this to absolutely anyone, a hidden gem in Cagliari!

This charming pizzeria specializes in pizza by the slice, ensuring that each piece is fresh and ready to go as soon as it’s cooked.

It took me a little while to write up this review after our recent trip in Cagliari in mid June! The restaurant was recommended by our hotel concierge as well as people we know from Sardinia. The overall experience was a mixed feeling to be honest! Perhaps this was the hot spot to be or perhaps one of the best restaurants to be in Cagliari back in the days with aproven pictures of celebrities and well known people perhaps. It took a huge amount of time between starter and first course. The octopus dish was so chewy which we left behind. The highlight was the well known lobster spaghetti 🍝 which we waited for a while but worth the wait. We ate most of the pasta and didn't bother to touch the lobster at all. In the end, we just couldn't wait to get out of this restaurant.... The view was average and service was okey, we have had better food in Cagliari and this restaurant was ait of hype in my opinion. Taxi was ordered upon request but we were sharing the same taxi with another Italian couple back in town. That was a bit of a fast& furious ride like the one in the movie I supposed which I'm certain the local Italian couple agreed with us.

The little manager got up from the other side of the restaurant to tell the waiter not to serve me because they were sold out. I watched 10 more people enter. More are still entering. Here is the fresh fish. Blatant discrimination. I feel for the people that work for him. I returned again to let him know I was observing him bring in more customers and he said he was going to call the cops. (More little man behavior) and now I’m here waiting.

Absolutely lovely experience! We went twice during our 5-day visit. Such a variety of fish, seafood, cheeses, sausages, fruit, vegetables, meat, salami, antipasti, bottarga, honey, jams, etc. Walking through the aisles and pick products for you lunch, dinner or snacks is a fine Sardinian experience. We loved it and also had the best coffee in our entire lives! Fishermen open up oysters for you and you can eat them right there, that's what we did. It is a must-visit while in Cagliari! 😃

Fresh bread, fruits, vegetables, meat and great pastries, nice local market. If you want to buy bread here go early, most is sold out at 11.00 in the morning. Watch out where you buy meat because they also sell Rabbit and horsemeat.

Very nice restaurant. We tried the set menu. Good food, good value. Really enjoyed the pre-starter with the peas. Original and flavourful. The bruschetta with fish on top was good but a little too acidic for my taste. The risotto dish was good but lacked a wow factor The faraona was very nice but not highly flavourful. I also tried the fish dish from my partner and liked it more. Pre- desert and desert (chocolate base) were good The service was attentive, though the wait between courses was a little long. Overall experience is positive and for 55 euros the set menu is a good deal. This specific menu lacked a wow factor, but worth going back as I heard they regularly change the menu.

Vegan restaurant
Gintilla Vegan Restaurant, located at Corso Vittorio Emanuele 210, offers a diverse vegetarian/vegan menu with options like pinsa (Rome-style pizza), hummus, and falafel. While some customers have mentioned small portion sizes, it's still a great choice for those following a vegan lifestyle. The restaurant is praised for serving traditional local food that has been veganized and includes meat replacements like seitan and soy.
Gintilla is a very beautiful place, the atmosphere is incredible and the food was excellent. If you're vegan and want a taste of traditional Sardinian food this is the place to go, I highly recommend the culurgiones, the seadas & the Mirto liquor! The staff was nice and friendly, we had an amazing time there! Would definitely come back next time I'm around !

The overall experience was okay, though it didn't quite meet my expectations. The menu featured a selection of dishes that were good but fairly basic. While the food was enjoyable, it didn't offer anything particularly memorable or unique. One aspect that could be improved is the wait time. We found ourselves waiting longer than anticipated for our meals, which slightly impacted the experience. Additionally, while the staff was friendly, I would have appreciated more engagement in explaining the dishes. It would have been nice to have a bit more insight into the ingredients and preparation.

The absolute best meal we had in Italy! Every dish was beautifully presented and the flavors were unforgettable, especially the carbonara which was nothing short of extraordinary. You can tell that real care and thought go into every part of the menu. The service was equally impressive. Our server Sasha was kind, attentive and made us feel genuinely welcome. His knowledge and warmth added so much to the experience. We feel so lucky to have discovered this place and only wish we had time to try the whole menu. A remarkable dining experience and an absolute must-visit in Cagliari!

The best pizza I had in Cagliari (and I tried about 4!). The host and chef was so calming in his delivery and I had a wonderfully relaxed evening. The pizzas were so good, I had two! It’s worth booking ahead of time I saw someone have to sit outside for about 30 minutes before they could enter. But it’s worth the wait.

We first tried the pizza as take-away and couldn’t stop thinking about how delicious it was. This time, we had the chance to enjoy it fresh in the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant — and honestly, we were blown away! That tomato sauce isn’t just an ingredient, it’s a masterpiece. The thin crust, its perfect crisp on the outside and soft inside… words simply fall short! Sardinia is no longer just a travel destination for us, it’s now a culinary stop. We’ll definitely be back next time! Thank you so much for your warm hospitality and for sharing such incredible flavors with us.

We mainly ordered seafood and did not regret it. The most delicious dish we tried was the black taglioni with seafood but also pork! Somehow all the ingredients worked really well together. The only thing that was not too-Mitch was the tiramisu, which I found too sweet. Service was impeccable, speedy but not rushed, the ambiance was quiet and relaxing - great experience overall.

Fork in Cagliari, a Michelin-starred restaurant, is a truly remarkable dining destination for food connoisseurs. The dishes served are not only delicious, but also impeccably presented - a feast for both the palate and the eyes. The wine selection is compelling and perfectly complements the flavors of the exquisite dishes. While the decor could benefit from minor tweaks, it doesn't detract from the overall dining experience. After all, we were there for the incredible food and not the interior lighting. The staff at Fork are professional, engaging, and bilingual, which made our dining experience even more enjoyable. The use of negative space in the plating sometimes left me desiring more, but perhaps that was the intention - to pique our curiosity and appetite. We shared many dishes 'family style,' and every single plate that graced our table left a lasting impression. Fork in Cagliari is a must-visit for an unforgettable gastronomic adventure that is sure to delight your senses.

The food was tasty but absurdly small portions and way more pricey than it should have been. One companion had the gnocchi with jus was really good. I got the Pacherri with shrimp and zucchini and it was as if they took 1 shrimp and 1/3rd of a zucchini and diced them to the size of a corn kernel. The service was ok but very stiff and overly formal. NOTE most people who walked in thought they were going into their more high end restaurant with tasting menu which was next door and who does NOT take walkins. It wasn’t awful and it wasn’t great.

Luckily this place was near my airbnb and my girlfriend wanted to try it out when she saw it. It's run together with a Michelin star restaurant that is next to it.

An absolute waste of money. The food was so anonymous, it was either too salt or didn’t taste like anything. The meat was dry and overcooked and even though it’s the “cheap bistro little brother” to the michelin star restaurant next door you will end up feeling that it’s completely overpriced compared to other generic restaurants with anonymous food. We talked to the waiters after our meal but they just told us to come back for the michelin star restaurant… Don’t go to the fork, you’ll be disappointed :)

Really disappointed at this experience: starting with the decor and ambience, it was outdated except for some modern art on the wall, tables were old, paint peeling from the walls.

Considering it was our most expensive meal in Cagliari there was no “bang for your buck”

Italian restaurant
ChiaroScuro di Marina Ravarotto is a charming restaurant located on the serene Corso Vittorio Emanuele II in Cagliari. The establishment draws inspiration from Grazia Deledda's literary work and features her phrases and silhouette throughout the menu. The interior exudes a simple yet elegant ambiance with white walls adorned with rustic elements such as baskets, farm tools, copper scales, and traditional fabrics.
We had an amazing time here at ChiaroScuro, usually I’m not a fan of Sardinian cousin but I have to say for the way everything was it made me definitely reconsider! Everything was superb, we trued around 9 different dishes, each bringing a different perspective to the traditional Sardinian food I was used to. Most of the dishes bring a touch of our natural flora, reminding of the smells of Sardinia countryside and macchia Mediterranea. My top recommendation would be spaghetto alla bottarga, very delicate and creamy, and the maialetto in oliocottura, which combine crunchiness and tenderness spectacularly. Regarding desert we only tried the Macchia which combined very nice aromas from one of the most iconic Sardinian plants. Overall 100% recommended and really a hidden gem in this town.

Nice food and heart behind the menu but the service was a little awkward even though we were the only people in the restaurant- the waiter was on her phone a lot and we had to beg her attention. The front of the restaurant has sliding doors and bright lights like a cheap cafe. They brought a special candle for my husband's birthday which was much appreciated. Quite expensive which would be ok if the service matched.

Maybe because we had a pretty high expectation but the restaurant was pretty so so. Nothing wrong with it. In fact it’s quite creative but for the price, we expected a bit more I guess. We wanted to try Su filindeu pasta and I kind of understand why this has not spread all over the world like some other pastas 🤷🏻‍♀️ Escargot (starter) was quite good.

ChiaroScuro is a Sardinian culinary masterpiece! During my visit, I was blown away by the variety and excellence of every dish I tried. Each plate was a work of art, blending Sardinian tradition with modern creativity: • Pane Frattau: A beautiful and flavorful start, rich and perfectly balanced. • Quaglia (Quail): Tender and flavorful, cooked to perfection. • Fileu: A delightful handmade pasta dish showcasing incredible textures and flavors. • Cervello (Brain): Unique and perfectly executed, a dish that truly highlights the chef’s skill. • Sebada: The classic Sardinian dessert, perfectly fried and paired with aromatic honey. • Cannolo: A sweet surprise, crispy and filled with creamy goodness. • Minestrone: Comforting and hearty, with fresh, local ingredients. • Stecco: A fun and creative dessert to finish off an amazing meal. The service was impeccable, with staff who were knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the food. The ambiance added to the experience—a cozy yet elegant setting perfect for savoring such exquisite dishes. ChiaroScuro is not just a restaurant but an experience, and it’s worth every moment and every bite. Highly recommended for anyone in Cagliari looking for the best of Sardinian cuisine with a twist! Bravo to the entire team—I will absolutely be back! 👏

ChiaroScuro di Marina Ravarotto, a real gem 💎 restaurant in Cagliari ChiaroScuro di Marina Ravarotto is a hidden gem that seamlessly blends tradition with modernity. Located on Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, this small neighborhood restaurant pays homage to Sardinia’s iconic dishes. Let me highlight some of their exquisite offerings: Raviolo ripieno di melanzana affumicata, pomodori arrosto e zucchina: Imagine delicate ravioli filled with smoky eggplant, roasted tomatoes, and zucchini. The flavors dance on your palate, leaving you craving more. Couscous, peperoni arrosto, fiore sardo e bresaola di bue di razza sardo modicana: A harmonious blend of textures and tastes. The couscous, paired with roasted peppers, Sardinian cheese (fiore sardo), and bresaola from the local Sardo Modicana cattle, is a symphony of Mediterranean goodness. Tataki di manzo: Brace yourself for super-tender beef tataki. The thinly sliced, seared beef is a masterpiece, served with precision and flair. And let’s not forget the impeccable service! The staff at ChiaroScuro ensures that every guest feels welcomed and pampered. In our case, it was the Sommelier and he had a real deep knowledge on wines but also in local products. It was enriching talking to him. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this restaurant promises an unforgettable dining experience. I wonder how long it will take until they receive a Michelin star 🌟 the Bib gourmand from Michelin was already given 2024. My conclusion, definitely a star 🌟

I was really excited to try one of the latest Bibs in Cagliari, but sadly I didn’t love it. The ambiance, lighting and design could be improved, but it was the food that was really lacking. The ideas were incredibly interesting. Reinterpreted tradition with a twist. I wish that flavours matched the creativity. Service was efficient but felt more robotic than it should be.

We had an amazing anniversary dinner at Chiaroscuro. Excellent quality, Sardinian cuisine with a modern touch. We tried su filindeu, one of the most rare pasta to find, made by the chef herself. We loved every plate: we tried the egg, the tongue, lados with pork ragù, the filindeu, the chocolate ravioli and the aranzada in modern version (aranzada to die for). The service and attention to customer is exceptional, and the prices are extremely honest for the quality you get. The interior is also nicely decorated. Looking forward to coming back to try more of the menu! Best wishes to the chef for continued success, very deserved

PerBacco is a charming and cozy restaurant located in Cagliari, tucked away from the tourist areas. The restaurant has a rustic ambiance with beamed ceilings and limestone walls, creating a cave-like atmosphere. Despite its unassuming appearance, PerBacco offers exquisite cuisine, such as delicate seafood ravioli with tangy tomato sauce and a selection of crisp house white wine. Visitors praise the excellent chef Sabrina for her delicious creations and kind demeanor.
This restaurant was recommended by the owner of the hotel we were staying at, which was very close. Received a warm welcome and we were looked after by a very attentive waiter. The food was a delight. We did share some of the dishes because we couldn’t decide. The waiter dealt with a very tricky situation, where a couple from the us came in, they were given menus and time to decide, in the end they said they were in a hurry!(perhaps they should have gone to MacDonalds) To receive freshly cooked food of a high standard you expect to wait. Would strongly recommend.

(Translated by Google) As a couple during the first of May we tried for lunch a good tourist menu but not too typical. the offer did not include the à la carte menu but three different fixed menus. about the food nothing to say delicious and well prepared with good fish ravioli, perhaps more questionable a spring roll among other appetizers. homemade desserts good but perhaps too standard like panna cotta and crema catalana. we who live in the city will have the opportunity to return to try a more flexible menu, but we have noticed some dissatisfaction of other tourist diners in not finding typical dishes and desserts. At the moment I limit myself to a good rating with 3 points out of five having certainly the opportunity to return. However the place is very nice and welcoming and I have heard good things about it from several friends. In my opinion a stop for dinner is very suitable because it is located in a very quiet and suggestive corner. (Original) In coppia durante il primo maggio abbiamo provato per pranzo un buon menu turistico ma non troppo tipico. l'offerta non prevedeva il menu' alla carta ma tre diversi menu' fissi. sul cibo nulla da dire delizioso e ben preparato con dei buoni ravioli di pesce, forse piu' discutibile un involtino primavera tra gli altri antipastini. dolci preparati in casa buoni ma forse troppo standard come la panna cotta e la crema catalana. noi che viviamo in città avremo modo di tornare per provare anche un menu' piu' flessibile, ma abbiamo colto una qualche insoddisfazione di altri commensali turisti nel non trovare piatti e dolci tipici. Al momento mi limito ad un buon giudizio con 3 punti su cinque avendo sicuramente modo di ritornare. Comunque il locale e' molto carino ed accogliente e ne ho sentito parlare bene da diversi amici .

(Translated by Google) Bad experience in Cagliari. I relied on the guide and the positive reviews and went to this restaurant during my stay in Cagliari in mid-August and it was a disaster: terrible welcome, unfriendly waitress, empty place and unbearable heat. Let's get to the serious stuff: fixed fish menu not mentioned with a plate of tired appetizers, a Barilla spaghetti with clams and bottarga and a second course of fish drowned in uncooked tomato. They had no sweets. Myrtle and bitters were not included. The house white wine is poor and undrinkable. I went with a couple of friends and I made a terrible impression. The icing on the cake was a very high bill for the dinner and experience we were given. Stay away guys. Cagliari is wonderful, look for the really right places. (Original) Pessima esperienza a Cagliari. Mi sono affidata alla guida e alle recensioni positive e sono stata in questo ristorante durante il mio soggiorno a Cagliari a metà agosto ed è stato un disastro: accoglienza pessima, la cameriera poco cordiale, locale vuoto e caldo insostenibile. Veniamo alle cose serie: menù fisso di pesce non segnalato con un piatto di antipasti stanchi, uno spaghetto Barilla con vongole e bottarga e un secondo di pesce annegato nel pomodoro non cotto. Non avevano dolci. Il mirto e gli amari non erano compresi. Il vino bianco della casa scadente ed imbevibile. Sono andata con una coppia di amici e ho fatto una figura pessima. Ciliegina sulla torta conto salatissimo per la pena di cena ed esperienza che ci hanno fatto vivere. Alla larga ragazzi. Cagliari è meravigliosa cercate i posti davvero giusti.

Nestled in the heart of Cagliari, Gelateria Vaniglia e Pistacchio is a charming artisan workshop run by the passionate duo, Moira and Antonello. They pride themselves on using only the freshest local ingredients sourced from Sardinia, including rich milk, creamy sheep's ricotta, Bronte pistachios, and IGP Piedmont hazelnuts. This dedication to quality shines through in their unique gelato flavors that pay homage to traditional Sardinian cuisine.
Little place in one of tiny streets in Cagliari center 😏Perfect flavours, for us pistachio was obvious choice but then you have to go for Sardegna and Uvetta, both are brilliant. Perfect texture, flavour and a man behind bar is very nice and helpful 😊

I had been a frequent visitor here. Recommended it to many people but Yesterday when I was there with 5 of my friends. 2 of us had already ordered and paid and when the other 2 friends wanted to try 2 different flavours before taking it they refused it. They said only one trial for the group. I don’t understand this. We are paying individually for each purchase why are you giving only one trial for 5 people. You can say one person can try only one flavour. Was very disappointed with this.

I'm leaving 3 stars because I've been going there for years, I love their ice cream. They used to have something like amaretto ice cream before and it was unbelievably good. A few months ago I went back and they had new staff. A girl with a long braid and no customer service skills (who seemed to be training a young boy) charged me double the price and I didn't go back all summer. I thought they increased the prices to that extent but then my friend told me she went back and the price was not as high. Changing staff often is not good for business.

It was one of my favorites until recently when I had two bad experiences. The last one was when we asked to taste another gelato, and the seller refused to give a second test. This poor mindset, thinking an extra spoon makes them rich, is nonsense. I already told them I won’t go there anymore. I hope they understand how they lose their customers with this type of behavior.

We came twice, only because of the amazing mango flavour. the other flavours lacked, especially the lotus flavor which didnt even taste like lotus. tasted so so bad it ruined my icecream.. and you can only try a couple until they start getting mad at you. also the amount is very small for the price you pay. maybe only come for the mango.

I had a very disappointing experience at this gelateria. The staff was unfriendly and quite rude. They seemed impatient while I was trying to choose my flavor, rushing me as if I was bothering them. Even worse, they kept muttering among themselves and making unpleasant comments about customers — which is incredibly unprofessional. The atmosphere felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Definitely not a place I would recommend or return to. Terrible customer service!

Restaurant
Osteria del Forte is a restaurant located in Palazzo Doglio, offering contemporary Italian cuisine with a focus on local ingredients. The menu features unique dishes like cacio e pepe pasta with sea urchins and a tasting menu including sea bass sausage with red prawns and bottarga. Guests have praised the friendly staff, beautiful atmosphere, and superb food and drink selections for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Excellent food and service. We ate at 2030 which was a little early so was a bit quiet however as the restaurant is in the Piazza and shares the space with other restaurants it was fine. There is a good selection to choose from for each course and plenty of options for wine. All the food was served hot and beautifully presented. All the staff were attentive and knowledgeable especially Mary and Silvio. Would highly recommended.

I am obsessed with this restaurant : the foods are the best in class, the service is top notch, everything they do just makes you feel happy, the environment is so clean and pleasant with music and lights. Their standards define luxury. I will come back to this hotel and its restaurant every year for some days to repeat this unforgettable experience, life is beautiful here.

We stayed at the hotel, so we decided to have dinner here on our first night. It’s a stylish, upscale restaurant with excellent service. We started with the scallops—absolutely delicious! Perfectly cooked, tender, and paired with a great sauce. The steak was also quite good. However, I found the sea urchin pasta a bit underwhelming—lacking in flavor and seasoning. The tiramisu, on the other hand, was excellent and a great way to finish the meal. The staff were very attentive and took great care of us throughout the evening. Plenty of seating both inside and outside. Overall, definitely worth a try—especially for the service and standout dishes!

What a wonderful restaurant! The staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming from our very first visit and throughout our entire holiday. We stayed nearby at the Palazzo Doglio and enjoyed breakfast here several times as well as lunch and dinner on several occasions. The atmosphere was absolutely gorgeous and the selections of food and drinks were superb. They really went out of their way to make our stay in Sardinia a special one. A special thanks to Mathilde, Daniel, and everyone else on the staff who served us with high quality service and attention. I will be sure to recommend to all my friends to dine at your restaurant on their stay in Sardinia! Grazie mille !

They booked us in for a 225 euros per person New Year's Eve evening with a sizeable deposit that we payed beforehand. A 6-course meal was planned with a toast at midnight with local sparking wine and panettone. We arrived at 8:30PM and it started out well: we had our amuse-bouche and some drinks. But then nothing else for 2 HOURS... Needless to say we didn't get out Primi before midnight and ended up eating the Main dish past 1AM and took the dessert to go. When we did get our food, the waiting staff seemed utterly confused, bring out the dishes in the wrong order and to the wrong tables as some guests got the same dish twice. The plates had the sauces smudged with waiters' fingerprints on the edges and my wine glass was cracked and the replacement one had sticky residue on the bottom. I will say that the food itself was good, but unfortunately it doesn't quite sit right when you have waited for it for 2 hours. The waiting staff and the maitre d' were arguing and bickering by the tables throughout this whole SNL sketch level of chaos. When we explained that this was not what we were expecting, the host offered us a discount and was apologetic, but this will certainly not make up for ruining a significant portion of such a special evening. As this was a special holiday in Cagliari for me and my boyfriend and our first NYE together, we wanted to treat ourselves with a nice fancy evening that was certainly not within our usual budget. In this sort of establishment, we certainly did not plan to spend the evening wondering when we would get our food and toasting the New Year without having eaten a proper dinner. I understand that these kind of things can happen, but at THIS PRICE and the LEVEL that this place presents itself as (the restaurant of a 5-star hotel), this is truly unacceptable. In my opinion, this restaurant should not offer such an elaborate menu for so many people and present itself at this level since it is NOT up to meeting that standard at the present moment. If you are planning a special dinner, I would advise you to consider a different establishment if you don't want to waste your money and expectations.

The restaurant is part of the Palazzo Doglio. It's location on the central court is a beautiful setting both for breakfast and dinner. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The breakfast buffet (included in the room rate) has a nice selection, with additional dishes for purchase from the menu. The dinner menu offers a wide selection of beautifully presented dishes. I thoroughly enjoyed my meals here.
Zeitarzt — Google review
One of the top restaurants in Cagliari and a must visit if you’ve got kids - the open court is the perfect place for them to run around while you enjoy your delicious meal in peace. Top quality Italian food, hearty portions and attentive service to top it all off. Will be back!

Pastry shop
I Fenu gelateria e pasticceria is a small gelato and pastry shop located in front of Cucina.eat. Fabrizio Fenu and Maurizia Bellu continue the family tradition that began in 1976 in Marrubiu, bringing exquisite artisanal gelato and sweets to Cagliari.
Even in January when you think it is too cold to eat gelato, come to I fenu and you will be reminded about why gelato is delicious any time of year. Their gelato is incredible. Rich, intense, pure flavours with amazing texture. Highly recommend the classics: pistacchio and gianduja. Also I enjoyed their more adventurous offerings like the oilo evo bio Ghermanu which is very good, with a subtle flavour. 5 stars.

Best gelato for us in Cagliari. Oro has saffron and their crushed pine cone is exotic in taste. Definitely less sweet than other gelato we have tasted
Esthee W — Google review
I recently visited this place, and it was such a delightful experience! The flavors were truly unique and refreshing, and each one tasted exactly like the real ingredient. I tried the mint flavor, which had the authentic taste of fresh mint leaves. I also had the chance to try a scoop of Peach & Basil, and honestly, it was irresistible. Probably one of the best and most original flavors I’ve ever tasted in my life. Everything felt so fresh and carefully crafted. Definitely a place I’d love to come back to!
Malinovski E — Google review
Another great gelateria in Cagliari! They offer a wide range of really interesting flavors, including classic and Sardinian specialties. The prices are a bit higher than average, but the portions are generous. I'm not fond of their policy (which many gelaterias don't have) that limits a small cup to only one flavor, but apart from this, great job! I'll definitely be back.
Michele M — Google review
Superlative gelato, during our week stay in Cagliari we must have gone here almost every night. I’d rate it amongst the best gelato I’ve eaten in Italy (or just about anywhere)

Amazing pistachio ice cream. Did not like the lemon cream one, it was too sweet. Update: I went again and had melon which was amazing and I also had watermelon gazpacho. Very strange flavour profile. You could taste the watermelon but you could also taste something salty and spicy. It was very interesting. I liked it a lot.

Sushi restaurant
Nestled in the heart of Cagliari, Saudade stands as a unique culinary gem that beautifully marries Japanese and Brazilian flavors. This first-of-its-kind restaurant invites diners to embark on a delightful journey through its innovative fusion menu, where the subtlety of Japanese cuisine meets the vibrant colors and bold tastes of Brazil. The concept of Nikkei burajiru-jin fusion cuisine has roots dating back over a century, stemming from the arrival of Japanese immigrants in Brazil.
A beautiful dinner spot in the Plazzo Doglio quarters. The service is attentive and carefully executed, they were kind to bespoke a meal for my young children. Decor is stunning and food is decadent. Highly recommended.
Priti P — Google review
Wow! The decor, the service, the food...all equally terrific! Our server was attentive and friendly, and the chef was accommodating and fun to talk with. You are able to customize your own sushi rolls if you ask the chef at the sushi bar, and he is more than happy to comply! He came over to speak with us afterwards, and the next day he saw us walking around Barcelona, remembered us, and went out of his way to come say hello. The food is some of the best Japanese we've had in a long time. My wife doesn't typically order gyoza, but did so at the recommendation of our server, and said that it was the best gyoza she has had in her life.

We stayed at the hotel and decided to try the sushi restaurant. The atmosphere is nice and the pricing is reasonable for the setting. Service was generally good, though at times it took a while to get the staff’s attention. The sushi and sashimi were fresh, but the sashimi slices were thinner and smaller than expected. Sushi rolls came with four pieces per order, which may not suit everyone looking for larger portions. Overall, it’s a decent option if you’re staying at the hotel or nearby, but portions may feel small for the price. Not sure if I’d come back

Compliments to the chef. Sushi is the best I’ve ever had. The dishes were absolutely exceptional. The service by the main bar man was fantastic. It was very busy but his service did not slip. Brilliant. Thank you. Wish there was a Saudade in London UK.

Sardinian restaurant
Sa Binuteca-Gocce di Nicchia is a charming discovery in Cagliari, offering a delightful selection of local wines and Sardinian Spritz paired with an impressive table of regional charcuterie and cheese. The owners are knowledgeable about their products, creating a welcoming atmosphere in this well-maintained location. While the cost may be on the higher side, it's standard for Cagliari.
Extraordinary experience! Cozy little place with a great appetizer and main dish menu (fish dishes, meat dishes, risotto, lasagna..)! Everything is from little producers around Sardegna, from the wine to the food. We went twice on our visit there! The owner was extra attentive! The waitress was lovely! Plenty of gluten free options (risotto, fish dishes, the platters) with gluten freee bread!

Wonderful wine bar! We came initially for a glass of wine but it appears they have also food menu. Seafood mix for 2 persons (25 eur) appears awesome! We even didn’t managed to eat everything! There is also variety of Sardinian beer and liquors. Recommended!

A very nice discovery in Cagliari where you can find great products. You can do a Sardinian Aperitivo and have dinner too. The owners are nice and they know their products, the atmosphere is another point for them, well kept location. The cost is high but standard in Cagliari, small portions, standard that too unfortunately.

Stopped in looking for a specific wine we had while visiting Alghero. Although they didn’t have that specific wine, they had something recommended by the owner that was just as good. He was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. They have a great selection and the prices were VERY reasonable. We didn’t eat there, but definitely would if we visit again.
