Restaurants in Cagliari, Sardinia

The cuisine is typical Mediterranean mainly featuring fresh fish and shellfish whose flavours and scents are strong and exquisite. Clams, mussels or fish soups are available almost in any restaurant as well as the excellent spaghetti with cuttlefish black ink, sea urchins or bottarga(dry mullet’s roe), grilled or deep-fried fish although prepared and decorated with some differences expressing the chef creativity. For a smooth digestion, try the excellent Sardinian spirits, like the myrtle (myrtle-flavoured liquor), the limoncello or the filu ‘e ferru(local eau de vie).HOTEL Cagliari Wines are very good too, the most renowned being a full bodied red one made from the native grape Carignano del Sulcis. Finally, give a try to the Ichnusa, fresh and crisp local lager.
