Sardinia Food Guide

 

CAGLIARI

Sa Domu Sarda @sadomusarda
Sardinian cuisine: too little known, too little valued, but capable of bringing immense joy. Here you can try all the traditional dishes, prepared as they should be.

 

Antica Cagliari @anticacagliari
Restaurant, bistro and terrace: three locations for three different settings and interpretations of traditional Sardinian cuisine. A solid address.

 

Cerchio Rosso – @cerchiorosso.ca
A bistro in a quiet little square, away from the chaos. Natural wines and never-boring dishes, highly recommended.

 

Old Friend Bistrot @oldfriendcagliari
You’re on holiday: treat yourself and let this kitchen spoil you — it deserves to be discovered.

 

Josto @josto.ristorante
Modern, well-curated, attentive to local ingredients and contemporary techniques. A Sardinian cuisine that looks ahead. Open only for dinner.

Babeuf – @babeufcagliari
A place unlike any other, for those who love taking their time and enjoying simple moments that feel good (while eating and drinking properly, of course).

 

Sabores @saborescagliari
A small wine bar with a kitchen near the port. A remarkable selection of local wines and fun dishes to share. If you find the braised mutton, try it.

 

Bombas @bombas_hamburgeria_sarda
Burgers made with local ingredients. Sardinia in a bun.

 

Stefini Artigiani del Gelato @gli.stefini
A city classic for a sweet and refreshing break.

 

SOUTH

Sa Cardiga e Sa Schironi – Capoterra – @sacardigaesuschironi
Just outside Cagliari, a hundred shades of seafood: from classic pastas, grilled and raw fish, to fried dishes and bottarga with artichokes. Traditional dishes are on the
menu too, but the sea is the star.

 

Fradis Minoris – Pula – @fradisminoris
A contemporary cuisine deeply connected to nature and the territory. Local fish and vegetables from the garden in a truly unique setting. Francesco Stara’s cooking tells
the story of the lagoon, the sea and the land.

 

Mirage – Chia – @ristorantemiragechia
When you crave a beautiful seafood platter and a simple but delicious lobster pasta, you know where to go. The menu is broad, with meat dishes too — something for
everyone.

 

Coxinendi – Sanluri – @coxinendi
A young and dynamic spot just over half an hour from Cagliari. The menu changes often, keeping things fresh and interesting.

 

Arieddas – Sanluri
Also in Sanluri, this restaurant was born from a well-known local winery and tells its story through regional products. The filindeu soup and the different preparations of
mutton are particularly special.

 

Da Nicolò – Carloforte – @ristorantedanicolo
An institution on San Pietro island. Honest, generous seafood cuisine with top-quality ingredients.

 

Letizia – Nuxis – @ristoranteletizianuxis
An osteria where Manuele, expert in mycology and a lover of plants, creates traditional and creative dishes where mushrooms and foraged herbs play a key role.
He even extracts essential oils and fragrances from them. The pizza is excellent too.

 

CENTER

 Trattoria Margherita – Arborea (Oristano) – @trattoria_margherita
A simple, authentic, welcoming place where the cuisine tells the story of Italian regional tradition — always with Sardinia as the starting and arrival point.

 

 Sa Pischera e Mar e Pontis – Cabras –@sa_pischera_mare_e_pontis
A fish trattoria run by a cooperative. Fixed menu and bottarga as the star: you’re in its homeland. Perfect also for aperitivo at the small kiosk.

 

 Il Caminetto – Cabras – @ristorante_ilcaminetto
Traditional fish dishes and a warm, familiar atmosphere that tells the local gastronomic story. Honest plates that focus on flavor, not aesthetics.

 

 La Rosa dei Venti – Sennariolo (Oristano)
A place far from the most famous areas, set in an environment that recalls old Sardinian homes with vintage objects. You can camp or stay overnight after enjoying
a true inland Sardinian meal.

 

Su Gogolone – Oliena (Nuoro) – @hotelsugologone
In this beautiful hotel just a few kilometers from one of Sardinia’s most scenic coves (Cala Gonone), you’ll find a restaurant for every occasion, each telling the story of a
tradition, a cooking method, or a typical product.

 

MAMOIADA

A focus on a small Sardinian gem where a group of winemakers is writing a new chapter.

Su Tapiu –@su_tapiu
An agriturismo you wouldn’t expect. A historic residence transformed into a modern restaurant showcasing the best of tradition.

 

Abbamele Osteria@abbameleosteria
A sincere osteria where food is good and wine even better, in an intimate setting.

 

La Rossa Enoteca – @larossaenoteca
Mother in the kitchen, son in the dining room. A lovely selection of local wines and well-executed traditional dishes.

 

VikeVike@cantinavikevike
Simone is young, from a winemaking family, produces his own wine and supports other local winemakers. He knows every corner of Mamoiada and is always
experimenting. His wines tell the story of the land.

 

NORTH

Frades – La Terrazza – Porto Cervo – @fradesportocervo
A cuisine that’s not strictly regional but tells the Mediterranean story with taste and care. Perfect for tapas-style aperitivo or dinner.

 

 S’Andira – Santa Teresa di Gallura – @ristorantesandira
An elegant spot with a view where the sea takes center stage: fish and seafood in light, refined dishes.

 

Mere – Olbia – @mereristorante/
Sardinian tradition with a modern twist. Elegant setting, attentive service.

 

Sa Mandra – Alghero – https://www.instagram.com/samandranoa/
People come here for the roasted suckling pig and stay for everything else. House-made starters and sides accompany the porceddu, which you can watch being
cooked.

 

Musciora – Alghero –@musciora
Father and son offer three different tasting menus that tell the story of Sardinia’s sea and mountains. Care, attention, and warm hospitality for a relaxed, special-occasion
experience.
