Restaurants cuisine du monde Sardinia

This unpretentious restaurant is always crowded. And for good reason! The menu is ridiculously cheap for the Costa Smeralda and the portions are generous. A plate of pasta or a pizza is enough to satisfy the most acute hunger. And to make matters worse, it's good. Fregola with seafood, grilled giant squid, spaghetti with mussels, Neapolitan pizza, 4 cheeses or capricciosa: the choice is more than wide! You can sit among the locals in a large, unattractive room or on the crowded terrace.

Halfway between Pula and Cagliari, at the mouth of the Capoterra and Cagliari ponds, this restaurant is famous for its traditional fish and seafood dishes. It is also an enoteca, so it has a well-stocked and quality wine cellar. The beautiful terrace overlooking the sea is often overrun by the bourgeoisie of Cagliari. This institution, open since 1967, has made a speciality of seafood platters, with oysters imported from France and Ireland, and lobster. If you don't want to ruin yourself, prefer the fishing of the day or frying.

La Lanterna is one of the best places in Olbia to learn about Sardinian specialities or to try them again. Located a little off the main street, it serves excellent meat and fish specialities, skilfully prepared and presented. But they also prepare pasta and pizzas, which makes it a family restaurant where everyone can enjoy themselves. The chef likes to take risks, especially when he offers sushi. You can go there with your eyes closed for the local specialities..., for the rest... it's up to you.

This fine table at Oristano stands out for its warm, modern setting and inventive Mediterranean cuisine. In other words, it's beautiful and tasteful, from the room to the plate. The dishes are beautifully presented, such as this octopus with potatoes and tomatoes or this fish fillet with artichoke and clams. The flavours are fresh and sliced. The prices are a little higher than elsewhere, but this is a change from the traditional Sardinian tables. Also note, also, a beautiful wine list that allows you to discover the region.

This is a real traditional Neapolitan pizzeria. This means that the restaurant is only open in the evening, because the oven is on a wood fire, and the dough is thicker and softer than for other pizzas. The choice is endless, as it often is, and everything will depend on your desire of the moment: simplicity, vegetables, seafood, deli meats and even pizzas covered... with chips! The terrace on the first floor is quickly taken over and it is better to book. Otherwise, there is also an outdoor patio on the back of the building.

One of the best tables of Golfo Aranci is located on the main beach. You can come there at any time for a refreshment. But it would be a shame to miss the gastronomic table facing the sea, literally and figuratively. Salt-crusted sea bass, mussels in white wine, Catalan-style lobster or the unmistakable spaghetti alle vongole are among the house specialities. Ideal for a romantic dinner under the stars. The establishment manages the private beach just in front. Possibility of a light lunch.

Yes, it is possible to eat at a reasonable price in Porto Cervo! You won't have to pay more than 20 euros for a meal. At this price, the cuisine is simple, international, and served in small portions. Fish tartar, pasta sprinkled with grated parmesan, hamburgers and summer salads are on the menu. The small, quirky room serves more as a dispatch area for the waiters than as a dining area for the customers. After all, the café is only open in season, and the large terrace sheltered by a pergola is sufficient.

This family-run restaurant in a pleasant and elegant setting attracts guests from the chic hotels of Cala Caterina. It offers a beautiful marine menu with refined products: spaghetti with lobster or crayfish, cockles and clams soup, cuttlefish ink risotto, sea bass with olives, tomatoes and potatoes or malfatti, delicious Lombard dumplings with spinach and ricotta. Between two courses, you will enjoy the incredible view of the bay of Santo Stefano and its azure blue. A must in Villassimius.

This "must-see" address is mentioned almost everywhere for its very good local cuisine. All the inhabitants of the region know this table with its high prices, certainly, but with its enchanting setting. An old farmhouse has been completely renovated to accommodate a beautiful restaurant and a few rooms. The hostel is located on the Oristano-Sassari road. It serves a delicious cuisine, facing the sea, but also the essential Sardinian pasta: fregola and lorighitta. Reservation is required at weekends.

This former restaurant-pizzeria, opened in 1987, decided a few years ago to devote itself entirely to gastronomy. Today, there are no more pizzas on the menu, but a creative and successful cuisine with a meticulous presentation, where seafood products generously garnish the plates, under the watchful eye of chef Roberto Raccis, owner of the establishment. The soberly decorated dining room, with its brick walls, has a warm atmosphere, but is rather noisy. Reservations are recommended, as this is a popular address.

This seaside café plays the multi-card offer to satisfy the needs of holidaymakers at different times of the day. Its blue and white cladding gives it a charming look. The tables on the terrace, below the road, enjoy the shade of the hundred-year-old olive trees. Coffee and cakes for breakfast, pizzas and bruschettas for lunch or aperitif time, cocktails in the evening, the view is always breathtaking. You can also taste the Arabic speciality ramhadam, a kind of pizza on a base of potato bread.

A little out of the city centre, but close to the hotel district, this table will seduce gourmets. The pleasant and modern setting, all in white, serves as a showcase for a very inspired cuisine. The self-taught chef Christian Pollu selects the best products, most of which are fished off the coast of Sardinia. He sublimates them with minimalist preparations of Sardinian inspiration. Cucina Machri is considered the best table in Pula. Prefer an indoor table, the outdoor terrace overlooks the sometimes noisy street.

You only have to look at the window boxes and the flower pots around the door to know that you have arrived at the right place. Lost in a small alley in the city centre, near the tourist office, this charming address looks like a mountain refuge with its granite facade and its small openings. This is the place to come to taste some of the best specialities of the region. The owners will be happy to guide you in your choice of dish. The restaurant is located on the first floor, under the roof.

This Cagliari institution celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2021. The Mundula family has managed to run this restaurant from generation to generation, always with the same recipe: good local dishes inspired by both land and sea. This former salt store offers a different atmosphere between its restaurant, which focuses on local specialities, and the wine bar, which offers a fine selection of oysters and champagnes. Here you can try Sardinian-style pork, fregola with clams, homemade fish soup or sweetbreads.

This pleasant and recent trattoria located in the historic centre welcomes you in a cosy setting dressed in light tones contrasted by stone and wood. Here you can enjoy tasty Sardinian specialities made with fresh and local products, with a special mention for seafood and excellent grilled fish. Tuna and spaghetti alla bottarga are a must to discover. For dessert, the gourmands can enjoy a ricotta cheese cheesecake. A great discovery. Don't forget to book.

Al Tuguri is not only among the good tables of Alghero, it is probably one of the best tables in Sardinia. The chef, Benito Carbonella, a native of Nuoro, offers refined and original Catalan cuisine, combining spices, perfumes, aromatic herbs and seafood. The establishment, opened in 1973, consists of two small rooms with a rustic and intimate decor. We recommend the seafood tasting menu, a real marvel. The prices are not excessive for a restaurant of this kind.

This excellent trattoria is located a little way from the historic center, some 50 meters from the Mariano II tower. At lunchtime, the tables are packed, and with good reason: the house offers superb fish dishes and other Sardinian specialties in a very pleasant setting. Reasonable prices also attract regular customers. Pasta, fried, grilled or cooked al forno fish are all on the menu. For dessert, take the opportunity to try the typical warm seadas covered in honey. A real delicacy at an affordable price.

Rocca 'Ja is located a few steps from Castelsardo and offers a breathtaking view of the town and the Asinara bay. The cuisine is based on the Sardinian repertoire. Of course, there are also the pizzas that tourists like so much and that allow you to keep your budget. But it would be a shame to miss out on the chef's beautiful specialities: tuna marinated in moscato, sardines marinated in myrtle, gattuccio in agliatail or the famous risotto del timoniere... Of course the prices are quite high, but the panoramic table will make you forget them.

Sa Buttega is both a restaurant that makes the best spaghetti alle vongole in town and an excellent pizzeria. All budgets are catered for. The dining room is comforting, with its exposed stonework and combed plaster in shades of natural tones. We found a good balance between land and sea dishes. The plates are copious and the staff really attentive. The pizzas are very tasty and rather large. At the end of the meal, you spin a wheel like in "Millionaire" and win every time!

Nuoro has some very fine restaurants and Ciusa is one of them. Its refined atmosphere does not prevent you from enjoying simple dishes, such as a plate of fine cured meats or a beef carpaccio with pecorino. But it would be a shame to miss the chef's creative cuisine, which follows the seasons. He proposes inspired dishes sprinkled with a touch of fantasy, such as the supions with fresh beans or the fried octopus presented in a very original way. Don't miss the filindeu, a very fine homemade pasta served with fish sauce.

The owner of this address is really the king of Tavolara. His ancestor Giuseppe Berteleoni came from Genoa at the end of the 18th century and proclaimed himself king of the island. In 1836, King Carlo Alberto of Savoy officially recognized this strange royalty. Even today, at Buckingham Palace, a photo of the Bertoleoni family can be seen among the photos of the royal families. A copy of this photo can be found in Tonino's beautiful restaurant. Typical sea food.

This is one of Carloforte's most traditional and renowned restaurants, recognizable by its pretty, tree-lined wooden storefront as you enter the harbor. On the menu: fresh cuisine and Sardinian dishes in this Pomata family-run establishment, considered one of the best in Carloforte. They also own the nearby Pomata bistro, offering modern cuisine and good pizzas for those looking for a trendy rather than traditional venue. House specialties: tuna trippa and tuna alla carlofortina.

Even on the very touristy and ultimately undeveloped island of La Maddalena, you can get away from the city and find a small country inn. In the middle of the scrubland and overlooked by imposing granite rocks, this restaurant has a veranda in front of the house and tables in the garden. Suckling pigs are roasted on a spit in the large fireplace, pasta is blackened with squid ink, antipasti are brought in from the sea every day. We love the rural and authentic setting and the informal atmosphere.

The picturesque terrace of this restaurant overlooks the nearby Mount St. Helens. Here you can enjoy Sardinian specialities prepared with local products. Vegetables and herbs come from the house's own organic garden. The owners have a "0 km" policy. They also take care to treat vegetarians and vegans, as well as people on a gluten-free diet, with special preparations. The cuisine brings out the flavours of fresh local produce. The meal ends with the unmissable mirto.

Elisa and Renato welcome you in their restaurant with a lot of attention. The setting is simple and pleasant, the tables are made of wood, square and painted with fresh colors, the chairs with straw cushions are covered with a cushion. The proposed dishes draw from the traditional repertoire of Sardinia. Do not hesitate to ask for the menu in your language. Several thematic menus have been elaborated to meet the different desires: menu of the land, menu of the sea and the Sardinian dinner, on reservation.

Pasqualino has a certain idea of elegance that is expressed in the dining room of this traditional trattoria. The curtains on the windows are pleated, the tablecloths on the tables are lined, the floor tiles are checkered. The whole thing is a bit sad, reinforced by the bric-a-brac at the back of the room. Fortunately, the chef's talent saves the content of the plates. He mixes Sardinian and Ligurian influences and perpetuates the tradition of the cascà (couscous) brought back from Tunisia, while sublimating the products of the sea.

The restaurant La Gritta has lost its Michelin star, but not its clientele. The adventure began in 2007 and the inhabitants of Palau were immediately seduced by the inventive and sober cuisine, spiced up with new condiments straight from the chef's head. The dishes are based on the local Gallura repertoire, especially for the preparation of fish. The sommelier has also gone fishing for the best local wine producers who work their land with passion. The menu is completed by a fine selection of Italian and French wines.

This friendly pizzeria is one of the good addresses that the inhabitants of Tempio Pausania all know. It is located on the outskirts of the old town, not far from the landmark building of the Autonomous Region of Sardinia. Don't let its unpretentious appearance fool you, the pizzas are excellent. The choice is varied, with also some Sardinian specialities, likethe seadas with honey. The queue that forms at dinner time is a good sign.

A small room with a refined decoration is hidden in an alleyway in the old town. The owner promises a real cuisine made with fresh ingredients and small local production. The delicatessen or cheese tasting platters are very popular with the regulars and accompany a glass of wine at aperitif time. In the evening, generous 50 cm pizzas come out of the oven over a wood fire. The menu changes regularly and the suggestions of the day are posted on the slate. The real plus of this little star is its upstairs terrace. This is a good address!

The gastronomic restaurant of the Hotel Gabbiano Azzuro puts the small dishes in the big ones to make you discover, and reinvent, the Sardinian specialities. The products are carefully selected like this fregula blackened with coal according to a very old and artisanal process. The menu is essentially seafood, and the fish comes from the Neapolitan community that has been living in Golfo Aranci for over a century. The chef offers a delicate and delicious cuisine that is well worth a stop.

Between two ice-cream parlours, a gym and the cafés of the busy Monsignor Virgilio street, this address is not so obvious. Six rows of tables are set up in front of the restaurant, sheltered under white parasols. Once inside, one realizes the success of this unpretentious and soulless address. A large tent has been set up in the courtyard of the house to serve as a dining room. And it is often full. A wooden structure and tables covered with tablecloths make you forget the prefabricated character of the setting. The long menu of soft pizzas too.

Bithia is a chic restaurant nestled in an enchanting setting. Away from the road and the hustle and bustle of the beaches, the beautiful round room and its large veranda look out onto a spotless garden framed by hills. In addition to a typical Sardinian menu combining products from the land and the sea, the restaurant also offers pizzas. The limited selection of products is fresh and of high quality. The pizzas are available in "red" or "white" versions, with or without tomato sauce. Don't forget to book if you want to enjoy a table on the terrace.

The best of Barbagia's gastronomic tradition can be found in this fabulous restaurant. Here, the women cook like in the past and bake bread on a wood fire. You must try the very copious and succulent buffet of Sardinian antipasti , the ricotta ravioli or the local cheese(sa casizolu). Every evening, the suckling pig is roasted on the spit in the large fireplace. The meal ends with the traditional seadas covered with honey. The prices remain reasonable. An obligatory stopover when visiting the region.

Cocco & Dessi is one of Oristano's bourgeois addresses. The elegant setting is a perfect match. Chairs and tables are skirted, glasses have legs, and the table is set when you arrive. The restaurant's Mediterranean cuisine is dominated by tomato, basil and olive oil. A special mention goes to lobster, cooked Catalan-style here with onion, tomato, oil and salt. The fish of the day is never lacking on the menu. Excellent wood-fired pizzas keep the bill down.

Here you are in one of the oldest restaurants in the Sardinian capital, opened in 1852. At that time it was an inn equipped with stables where the Sardinians came down from the mountains on horseback. The current owners have gentrified the setting with tablecloths, red taffeta chairs and solid parquet flooring. The menu reveals a selection of classic, well-toned dishes (chateaubriand, Milanese escalope), some Sardinian specialities, including malloreddus, or exceptional products such as sea urchins, white truffle or lobster.

This good restaurant between Arzachena and Porto Cervo offers both land and sea food. Often copied but never equalled, its great speciality is suckling pig roasted on a spit. In the summer, meals are served on a magnificent garden terrace. Compositions of driftwood, olive trees, stone paving, the natural setting is enhanced and the view extends to the Gulf of Porto Cervo. Fresh home-made pasta, antipasti... everything is delicious. An interesting alternative to the restaurants of the expensive and noisy Costa Smeralda.

Located in a former warehouse built some 250 years ago on the port, this restaurant has established itself over the seasons as the best table in the city. Nicolo Pomata, the chef, can be recognized by the bandana tied on his head, which never leaves his head. So much so that the locals have nicknamed him "the pirate". Nicolo takes pleasure in promoting the bluefin tuna, unfortunately in danger of extinction. So he skillfully tastes swordfish cooked with aubergines alla parmigiana and mozzarella or carlofortais maccheroni with pesto, tomato and pecorino.

The Mirage is the good little tavern where you can taste the great classics of Sardinian cuisine, from fregula to clams, spaghetti with seafood or burrida cagliaritana. In a pleasant rustic setting you can also enjoy a pizza baked in a traditional wood-burning oven, such as the speciality with vongole e bottarga(clams andbottarga). As often in Sardinia, pizzas are served only in the evening: it is too hot during the day to light the oven. Lively atmosphere in summer.

From outside you can see the large and beautiful terrace which is quickly taken over in the evening. Inside, the atmosphere of this neighbourhood canteen is provided by a regular clientele. The tempting smell of its semi-open kitchen and the small, simple, long and unadorned room make this trattoria one of the institutions of the lower town. If the weather is nice, take advantage of the terrace and you will be a little more quiet. Good Sardinian specialities based on whole fish or meat, homemade lasagne, pasta and seafood.

A terrace above a small place on the harbour. Welcome to the Terrazza! While reception is almost family, it is a very good table. The dishes are varied, the preparation is always careful and prices are reasonable. Unavoidable!

You have to come to this 4-star hotel for its restaurant, which is considered one of the best in Arbatax. It is located overlooking the harbour, in a street without charm. The restaurant, a bit chic, deserves a mention for its neat setting, its diligent service and its pleasant outdoor terrace overlooking the pool. The chef concocts an original Mediterranean cuisine. The yellowtail carpaccio is accompanied by strawberries, the tuna carpaccio is spiced up with spring onions. Grilled shrimps or crème brûlée are much more classic.

Sardinian and Italian cuisine in this restaurant with an air-conditioned room and a terrace with sea views. The menu offers all but the specialities are the fish, seafood spaghetti fregolla or in the antipasti, including octopus salad, marinated salmon or half-cooked tuna… the service is fast.

Among all the restaurants that have a terrace on the ramparts facing the setting sun, we had a crush on Il Macchiavello. The reception is irreproachable, it is the great Italian class, the interior room is superb, and as for the terrace, one cannot make more romantic when the light goes down and the last rays of sun illuminate the ramparts. Alghero is a Catalan land, so we recommend you to taste the paella. Lovers of pasta, you will not be disappointed either. In short, we enjoyed ourselves!

The hotel's restaurant of the same name can serve up to 400 covers in August, and guests flock to its trellis of flowers to enjoy delicious cuisine at very affordable prices. Black and white tagliatelle with seafood, Sardinian ravioli with tomato and basil or scorpion fish served in a basil sauce are a delight for gourmets. Out of season, the large design room dressed all in white and with soft lighting is also very pleasant for a dinner with friends or lovers.

Delicious pizzas and very affordable prices for the place! The map also offers some fish and meat specialities. One of the oldest addresses at Porto Rotondo!

This V.I.P. address has a very refined rustic atmosphere. Old tiled floors, old enamelled stove, waxed wooden tables, all the codes of the old bourgeois dining room have been taken up. For once, the dining room is more pleasant than the terrace, which is very much covered to guarantee maximum privacy for the guests. The menu proposes the best and most beautiful noble products: risotto with wild asparagus and scampi, fregola soup with tomatoes, spaghetti with bottarga... Very good wine list with the best vintages.

The restaurant offers fish and shellfish cuisine in an alleyway in the historic centre, right next to the port of Cala Gavetta. Straw chairs, white tablecloths and beautiful presentations... all the details are there to enjoy a pleasant meal, but it is certainly the fish cooler that catches the eye. The fish antipasto with several small seafood starters, the spaghetti with clams and the homemade myrtle liqueur win the first prize among the dishes offered. The only regret is that the prices are decidedly high.

La Calanca is a good place to try the local specialities cooked according to the seasons and at low prices. The cuisine is simple and appetizing, marine and summery. The menu offers good grilled fish, tasty ravioli, pasta with poutargue, Sardinian desserts... The restaurant has been recently renovated and offers a very pleasant setting, both indoors and on the terraces. And for the terraces, you have a wide choice! Either the one on the other side of the street with only a few tables or the one upstairs, covered.

It's impossible to be more typical than this little restaurant. First of all, its name, which promises a simple but tasty meal. Then its setting. The tables are set up under the old trees that cast their shadow on a small square. They are covered with checkered tablecloths to complete the postcard setting. The Taverna offers typical Sardinian dishes or fresh homemade pasta. You can also watch your figure with a grilled fish served with fresh vegetables. A real delight.

In the hospital area and the park of Monte Claro.
