I absolutely loved it here! I went with my family for lunch, food was fantastic- nice twists in classic dishes, super warm and welcoming service, and a great wine! Perfectly located in Cagliari for a walk around exploring as well. Will be going back often!

We had dinner on a regular Friday night, food and prices are really on point if you're looking for something fancy and not expensive at all. The menu is a good mixture between Sardinian food tradition and innovation, the cellar reserves some surprises for natural wine lovers. Highly recommended for a fresh experience in Cagliari

This Taverne is located at the edge of the City Center. We have visited it July, 14th in 2025. You can sit outside on the street or inside. We were sitting inside ground floor. What a pity that the AC was running too fast and in addition it then was too cold. After a short time we got pain in our nack. Fast we have received the Menu. We have ordered Tuna TARTARE (15 €) which was fresh and of good quality. My starters, Bombas (Meatballs, 12 €) were good. As a Main I have ordered fresh Ombrina (Catch of the day, 18€) in Tomatoe Sauce. The taste was good as well. Wi-Fi Internet was available, which was good because our own cell phones couldn't get access because of the room. A separate Menu for a Dessert (DOLCE) wasn't available. Payment with Credit Card was accepted. Finally I can recommend this Restaurant.

Loved it here. Really excellent food at such a fair price. I think there was a set menu for under 30 euros. The atmosphere was great with nice outdoor tables just opposite Sa Domu Sarda!

Fantastic Sardinian plates from the sea with a slight modern twist. Every plate we had was amazing, not too heavy and went great with the Vermentino. The best bacalao I’ve ever had! Would highly recommend.

Modern sarda cuisine at its best. Relaxed and buzzy vibe, food was perfect and the team were so lovely. Some of the best, if not the best, polpette, tartare di tonno with the paccheri was a great combination. Prices were very honest as well. Highly recommend and would be a regular if we lived in Cagliari.
