Trattoria Bar La Baracca — Restaurant in La Maddalena

Had a marvelous spaghetti allo scoglio; also tasted the veal milanese and ravioli ricota, which were both nice, not as amazing as the scoglio. This is an off the beaten path place; that said, don't come back expecting a bargain, as prices are in line with other nice restaurants in Maddalena. I would come back, and probably will

Service was professional but lacked warmth, and we experienced a long wait for our mains. Prices were consistent with those...

We worried when first arriving here because we entered the bar/cafe area first (on the left) and luckily the lady behind the counter pointed her arm towards the adjoining dining area which is large. (large enough for 2 tour groups who came in later) we were the first ones seated a little before noon (because we haven’t acclimated to Italian eating times) a group of firefighters came in after us and we were excited. The covered outdoor eating is pleasant and the seafood was really fresh. The thing that docked my rating is the salty scale (a little too much) the bread basket was the best we’ve had during our 6-day Italy travels. The server was generous with bread basket refills and complimentary mirto digestif...
