Antichi Sapori Sas In Cagliari

26/08/2025: A small restaurant in true "seafront" style. Upon entering, the first thing I noticed were the menu placemats covering the windows from the inside, for some reason or other. The food is below average, especially considering the price: you can taste the quality ingredients and the desire to improve, but the dishes are confusing. In particular, the tagliolini allo scoglio al nero di seppia is a Pollock of flavors: a striking visual effect, but in the mouth, everything blends together, and the sauce dominates, completely covering the fish (I tried some raw scampi on its own, and it was very good). The pasta with clams and bottarga was good, but it's also a shame about the culurgiones, which are well-made but topped with a very acidic sauce that covers everything. Fried fish and umbrina (if I remember correctly) are good, the wine is average in both quality and variety. Disappointing service, there were a couple of mistakes when taking orders. I highly recommend using a notebook and being more humble, but the worst was when the waitress made us pay by card and ate a spoonful of fregola for every transaction. Family-run business doesn't mean being related to the customers, but making the people who choose you feel at home. In conclusion, not recommended.

04/08/2025: Very, very fresh and very good! I highly recommend it, especially after a day at the beach! We had the octopus, fish and chips, and calamari, then tiramisu for dessert! Everything was delicious! The service was quick, and the waitress spoke French and was very, very kind.
