We came here in a group of 11 people without any reservation which could be quite challenging but the owner of this restaurant set up for all of us in the shades. The owner spoke only Italian and Spanish and a very broken English but thanks to his happiness the communication was not an issue. Regarding the food, it was very tasty, most of us ordered the pasta with seafoods : The pasta were al dente but not too hard like the ones you can have in the mainland and the seafood were fresh from the day. The main dishes were so tasty that one of us cleaned the pan so well that it could be reuse straight away. The desert were excellent as well, do not hesitate to order the tiramisu (best of the world as they call it here) or the gelator di Antonio ! Grazie mille !

between all my Google's opinions posted in three different continents in the last 20 years on more then hundred of establishments this is gonna be the most controversial: seafood spectacular! homemade pasta good but mostured so not very digestible presentation good, pasta served straight from the pan 🥘 Tuna tartar fresh and tasty but half of the size promised by others guide's pictures (possibly drove by the owner) and served without proper condiments but an commercial already moled black pepper. wine I've been told not too bad for the price service...the worst ever including the only waiter who standed barbarianly between me and an other client (from Milan who's been treated as a prince cause the accent, even if i dont have any, at least to them, but my mom and companion's have a bit) while in the middle of a good conversation, just to cut the conversation and say that they were gonna close soon. not mentioning how abruptly he imposed us a table when we choosed already a bigger one with the terrace totally empty. another waitress who was driving to me like we knew each other since the college and giving the feeling she was doin every time a favor. last but not least the third waitress, who i guess was the owner, treated us respectfully and professionally. i have no comment for her husband as well owner, supposed to be the Cook (Chef? ahahah) who asked me, leaving the place, to leave the door open like i was one of his employee. good home made limoncello tough PS:"my" only shortcoming was half an hour delay from the time reserved due to my mom 87yrs old and her friend who's 77 so not the speediest companions. ND: as of my habit when i go to visit my mom to Sardinia, place where i grew up, and i go out, i dress, on porpouse like a young 60s hippie cause i know the closed/unfair but very "judge-the-book-by-its-cover" mentality...once again it turned out to be true. (to be fair i have to say that all around the world nowadays' happening) Regards Reply to the untrue answer from the owner: I've parked properly on the only spot available , a corner just behind your car which occupied two places. As soon as ive been told, while eating and with unproper manner, i moved it even if was totally unnecessary due the the enough space available to leave, going easily backward, the parking from its position. ive been offered by the Milanese client to take advantage of the wine cup to wash out my hands and offering to use as well his napkin to dry then 'em. by the way he's testimony of both actions and hope he's gonna intervine in this cause still on vacation over there. Now..Let ME suggest YOU something..being so arrogant and untruthful as entrepreneur the only thing you gonna receive back is, sooner or later, the boomerang you just threw.. people ain't stupid neither not aware of the Google's review power like you showed to be. stay hungry, stay foolish dear young entrepreneur salut! ps: the waitress lady deserve to be the owner!

The food is good and the atmosphere is ok, but be aware with your bill. The owner is the guy taking the orders and closing the bills. We ordered 2 dishes of 13 euros each and one big bottle of still water +which was from tap (3 euros). In addition to that, they charged us 2 times the service of 3 euro (should be around 10%, we paid around 17%), totalizing 35 euros - which in fact should be 32. Maybe the owner did that because we don't speak Italian and I would not debate about 3 euros extra in our bill. I just think that fairness is an important ingredient to be added to a successfull restaurant. Hope next time the owner make it clear, no matter the language you speak.

This restaurant was amazing! The food was incredible. The linguine with lobster for 2 is a very nice size portion and so flavourful! Best lobster i've had, and for this price it can't be beat. The staff were very friendly, funny and nice. We also had an octopus appetizer with potato, it was a unique dish and sooo delicious. This restaurant is a short walk from Poetto beach and much better than the restaurants near the beach. Highly recommend!

The best restaurant in Cagliari I visited. The portions are quite large so it is good to split them. Good selection of wines and drinks. I recommend visiting it. BTW, being in Rome now in 2023, tiramisu here in Rome has absolutely no comparison to this and I know what I'm talking about as I a connoisseur of this particular dessert, not to mentions such great food and wine. Pay attention to panna cotta (best limoncello as a part of it)

Mi sono recato a cena spinto dalle buone recensioni ma soprattutto perché vicinissimo all'appartamento da me affittato per le vacanze.Mi è piaciuto il servizio,molto attento ai bisogni e rapido.Valida la carta dei vini e anche la scelta del cibo è ampia ma giusta.Il cibo è fresco ma non ho capito perché gli antipasti fossero miseri ( io ho preso le cozze gratinate ed erano 10 contate,mia moglie a preso un frittino ed era decisamente più generoso), mentre i primi piatti sono veramente molto abbondanti, difatti a saperlo,ne avremo preso magari uno in meno per poi gustare un secondo che però a quel punto non era più gradito perché troppo sazi.Non ho capito perché ci hanno servito i primi nelle padelle, più che altro perché sul tavolo non c'era molto spazio e anche se scenografico è scomodissimo. I miei scialatelli buoni ma veramente troppo marcati di sale,lo spaghetto allo scoglio aveva un sugo un po'troppo coprente sul pesce e i paccheri troppo al dente, al dente a me piacciono ma per mia moglie e mio figlio lo erano un po'troppo.I dolci non male ma non memorabili.Il conto giusto direi.Non credo sinceramente di tornarci perché non mi ha entusiasmato.
