Soda Mediterranea — Restaurant in Sardinal

This little restaurant is tucked away in Pueblito Norte in Las Palmas development and is as amazing as it seems unassuming. My gosh, what a pleasant surprise! The chef is Italian, works only with whatever (shell)fish is caught that day, local catch, local ingredients and therefore an ever changing menu.Just like it's supposed to be! He lets you choose your own fish as he brings them all to your table. Their breads, gnocchi and pasta are all home made. They went above and beyond to create a vegetarian menu for us which was absolutely delicious with gnocchi and pasta. We were treated like royals, with an extra little cup of soup as a starter and a home made maracuja shot afterwards. The bill is absolutely reasonable, especially including all the extras. Service is impeccable, they speak Spanish, Italian and English....

Service was slow but pleasant. No rush...Pura Vida. We had the octopus carpaccio as an appy. Nice laste, the small was plenty for 2 people. I chose the grouper from the boat of ice filled with the catches of the day. Hubby had the octopus risotto. Both dishes were sooooo good. The fish was grilled and served cart side. Love this service. For dessert, we had creme Brule and passion fruit Gelato. Both were delicious. The creme Brule was also served cart side with the mini torch browning the the top and sides in front of guests. Can't...

Delicious, absolutely yummy food, plus super-friendly staff in an utterly charming atmosphere! Loved all the “catch of the day” options — I went with the grilled octopus, whereas my partner went with some homemade pasta with fruite di mare seafood. Both excellent. The octopus was served still sizzling on a hot grill platter. They got very busy right when we walked in, and our smiling, friendly waitress took good care of everyone, with special attention towards tables with kids. They also gave us a complimentary starter, and homemade “maracuja-cello” (passionfruit limoncello) for dessert. The quiet courtyard setting, with lush vines and the moon overhead, was much more peaceful than the town’s main strip....
