Toma Restaurant is a seafood restaurant located in the marina of Santa Maria Navarrese, a small town on the eastern coast. It is overlooking the marina and the terrace offers a great view.
I recently had the opportunity to dine at Toma Restaurant, and I was not convinced by the ordered dishes . I started my meal with the spaghetti alle vongole, which was perfectly cooked and had a generous amount of fresh clams. For my main course, I had the grilled sea bass, which was moist and flaky, and came with a delicious lemon sauce. I finished my meal with the tiramisu, which was light and creamy.
The service at Toma Restaurant was nice. Our waiter was helpful to change table from the terrace to inside. Unfortunately, strong winds prevented us to sit outside and have a decent dinner.
Overall, I had a medium experience at Toma Restaurant. The food was lacking punch and it gave us the feeling of many frozen products. Compared to other restaurants we have been it was not convincing.. The service was nice. . I would recommend this restaurant to people visiting Santa Maria Navarrese and want to have a beautiful view and spend a romantic evening.
Here are some tips for your visit to Toma Restaurant:
Book your reservation in advance, especially during peak season.
Ask your waiter for their recommendations, as they know the menu well and can help you choose the best dishes.
Enjoy the beautiful views of the Gulf of Orosei...
Read moreAVOID!! The worst meal we had the whole trip! All four dishes ordered were very poor quality, (also over priced compared to standard rates) the tuna was inedible due to massive over salting, despite been sent back to the kitchen they still insisted to charge as it had been ‘tasted’ Nice ambiance for a drink but terrible for food. Service & environment also disappointing, the staff are running around frantic which created a stressful tension, and poor atmosphere. I would not recommend visiting at all, plenty of much better options.
Additional comment post owner’s response: There was no condiments/salt/oil or bread delivered to our table. There was 100% definitely never any rudeness to the waitress, we thanked her for doing her job, we did witness rude behaviour from another staff member towards her shouting across the restaurant that also added to the overall poor atmosphere and it certainly did not seem to be a pleasant work environment, we felt compassion for the waitress.
It’s shocking that you would feel the need to misrepresent the actual situation of the evening and not just take on board the honest feedback and try to make some improvements to the food standards and atmosphere. I can see from other reviews that we are not the only customers of...
Read moreIt’s always disappointing to see a place with so much potential fall short, especially in such a stunning location. The view here is one of the best I’ve seen in Sardinia, but unfortunately, the food and service were well below expectations.
To start, even the most basic elements of Italian dining were missing—no olive oil, vinegar, salt, or pepper on the table. Everywhere else we’ve been, these were standard and didn’t require asking.
We were then served a stale, unpleasant pineapple juice that should never have been offered to guests. It was clearly past its prime.
As for the food, it was a major letdown. The quality did not match the prices at all. For €22, a seafood dish should feature fresh, high-quality ingredients. Instead, it seemed like it was made from leftovers. The shrimp, in particular, were inedible.
The service, while provided by seemingly eager staff, lacked attention to detail. They would forget requests moments after leaving the table, and overall, it just felt disorganized and unprofessional.
For the prices being charged, the experience should be far better. Sadly, both the food and the service were highly...
