“ 7 Juillet 2024 - 12h45 - 2 Adultes 1 Enfant Déjeuner au hasard et surtout à l’improviste. Malgré des avis plutôt mauvais, pour notre part, nous sommes assez bien tombés ! Peu de monde à cette heure, avec une serveuse qui fait des efforts en Français. Comme dans le reste de l’Île le service est assez « long » mais d’un autre côté on est pas pressé non plus !! 2 Carbo et à défaut de Gnocchis on prend la proposition de la serveuse, de Pennes à la sauce tomate qui sortiront finalement du four, façon légèrement gratinée. Le menu est « sous-titré » en Anglais. Pour 1 Spritz, 2 Coca, 1 Ice tea, 1 verre de Vin, 2 Carbo, et une Penne, le total sera de 85€, ce qui est totalement correct par rapport à chez nous. Les carbos étaient savoureuses comme ils savent les faire ici, un peu moins pour les lardons qui étaient trop « gras » à mon goût. Les Penne et leur sauce étaient savoureuses et généreuses. Même si le coin est beaucoup plus touristique ici que dans le Sud, l’ambiance était assez bonne. Perso j’ai apprécié. Les toilettes étaient propres et nous avons trouvé de la place à côté. ”
“ That's a wine shop, bar and small restaurant, very good collection of loca (Sardinia) wine ”
“ We have been coming to this wonderful bar and restaurant for at least ten years. Excellent food especially the pasta with bottarga and Franco's pasta special. Reasonably priced for the area and always prompt and courteous service. Beautiful and cozy setting with options for indoor and outdoor sitting. Finally, they have good free wifi connection. Highly recommend. ”
“ Very tourist oriented restaurant, however the food was surprisingly tasty, so good we went for a second time. The pasta was amazing and so was the wine. The seafood was good but nog as good as the pasta. A little on the pricy side, however right next to the restaurant you can get complementary ice cream from a Gelateria which was absolutely delicious. Overall a great experience. ”
“ We love to eat here whenever we are in Costa Paradiso! The food is excellent and the service is great. Very nice for a casual dinner after the beach. If you love food and wine, let Franco guide you, he is an expert! He recommends the best wines every time. ”
