AL TUGURI
Read moreAl 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.
LA BOTTEGHINA
Read moreA 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!
OSTERIA MACCHIAVELLO
Read moreAmong 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!
IL PESCE D’ORO
Read moreA prétention pizzeria with a tourist menu at 15 €.
IL CORALLO
Read moreThis good address in Alghero is a little bit away from the centre and its animation. Here, there are no pizzas, but dishes turned towards the sea, worked with carefully selected and fresh products. The impeccable presentation of the plates and the sober setting set the tone: you are in a gastronomic bistro. The plates reveal an original bresaola of tuna bresaola with fennel, orange and liquorice or a delicate peach return with artichoke carpaccio and almonds. Don't miss the tiramisu for dessert, one of the chef's specialities.
TRATTORIA REJAL
Read moreOne of the few pizzerias in the city to serve at lunchtime. The choice is endless and it is sometimes difficult to decide between the simple margharita, the mozzarella di buffala pirata, or the calzone soufflée. They're delicious anyway.
MOS TAPAS
Read moreThis restaurant offers an appetizing choice of tapas of Italian rather than Spanish inspiration. We fell in love with the smoked sardines served with burrata and tomatoes: a delight! The setting of the room is very pleasant, with its large bay window and blackboards displaying the day's suggestions. We also liked the sofas laid out on the pavement, perfect for sipping a glass of wine, an aperitif or a digestive. The only downside is that the portions are not very large and you have to multiply them to satisfy your appetite. The bill goes up quickly.
TRATTORIA MARISTELLA
Read moreFor over 20 years, this trattoria close to the sea prepares delicious regional fish dishes. Booking recommended in high season.
CASABLANCA
Read moreA good pizza. But also some dishes like the risotto with seafood. Fast and smiling service.
LA PERGOLA
Read moreOf all the restaurants and eating places near the Lido beach, La Pergola is undoubtedly one of the best. Located in front of the hospital, hidden behind the trees and the fountain, it specialises in pizzas - really delicious -, fish and seafood. The chef likes to mix Sardinian and Catalan influences, as in his fregola prepared like a paella. The large terrace under the trees and the large elegant room can accommodate half of the Lido beach. At least!
MOVIDA
Read moreOn the ramparts of the old town of Alghero, Movida has its pleasant terrace facing the port. There is a good sea kitchen with a special mention for the seafood spaghetti and the seiche ink, a treat! In dessert, the gourmets can throw their hand on the famous Catalan cream. Welcome and attentive service from the boss. Note that prices are a little more expensive than average.
