Umami sushi&pokes — Restaurant in Sardinal

Mmmmm wow, delicious! I’d seen an outrageously appetizing photo of the Tuna Tartar - a stack of raw tuna, fresh mango and avocado - and I wondered, could the real thing live up to that?

This place is a hidden gem in the tourist zone of El Coco Beach. The guy is super nice and makes fresh sushi that’s amazing and the bowls are super refreshing too.

Everything was delicious, the service was excellent, and everything was spotless....
