🍽️ Sardinia Dining Guide: Must-Try Restaurants

1️⃣ Zuma Porto Cervo 📍 Location: Overlooking Porto Cervo’s marina ✨ Why Go: Stunning cliffside views + unexpected flavor bombs Pro Tip: No reservation? Order champagne to snag the best table. Must-Try: "Luxury" Indian biryani (shockingly good) + the 6-dessert tasting platter (molten chocolate cake = heaven). Vibe: Glamorous but relaxed—outperforms Zuma Dubai/Mykonos! 2️⃣ Nobu Matsuhisa at Cala di Volpe 📍 Location: Inside Cala di Volpe Hotel ✨ Why Go: Iconic sushi with Sardinian flair Chef Spotting: Nobu himself was vacationing here during our stay! Order: Omakase + truffle miso cod. Sea-view tables have a minimum spend but worth it. ⚠️ Note: Strict dress code (men: long pants mandatory). 3️⃣ Crazy Pizza Porto Cervo 📍 Location: Porto Cervo’s bustling square ✨ Why Go: High-energy fun + solid pies Secret: "Walk-in impossible" unless you’re driving something flashy (we got "the look"). Surprise: The live (performance) here > Milan’s version! Think singing waiters + limoncello shots with the manager. Eat: Truffle pizza + burrata salad. 4️⃣ LU STUZZU Porto Rotondo 📍 Location: Hidden gem in Porto Rotondo ✨ Why Go: Authentic Sardinian roast suckling pig (porceddu) Pro Move: Free aperitivo spread (prosciutto, local cheese, house wine) while you wait. Heads Up: Even with reservations, expect a 20min delay—it’s part of the charm. 💰 Deal: Best value—fixed-price menu (€65pp, excludes wine). 🚫 5️⃣ Italo Bassi Confusion 📍 Location: (Don’t bother) 😤 The Tea: A Michelin-starred scam. Why Skip: Overpriced, tiny wine list, and dishes that tasted like "regret" (we sent 3 back). PSA: That star is clinging on by a thread. Final Notes: Book Ahead: Sardinia’s top spots fill fast—reserve via TheFork or hotel concierge. Dress Code: Porto Cervo = chic; beach towns = relaxed. #SardiniaEats #FoodieTravel #LuxuryDining #AvoidAtAllCosts #PorcedduLovers
