23/10/2025: This is a great, privately run restaurant in a very up and coming marina area. Well worth a visit.
We were staying at the Janne e Sole resort about a 30 minute stroll away and visited the marina area to see if it had changed since our friends' visited it last year. What a transformation.
The marina was almost full with pleasure boats, the commercial, harbour part is clearly busy and the quayside is now dotted with restaurants and cafes. Visit soon before the influencers get the place submerged in tourists.
Anyway we were in Sardinia as a group to celebrate our friend's 60th birthday and when we saw this place we knew it would be an ideal, surprise party venue.
Wifey spoke with the lady owner and we booked a table for the 12 of us for the Friday evening with an arrangement for Wifey and a few others to go in the afternoon and decorate our area.
When they went in the afternoon the restaurant was closed. The lady explained they were on their afternoon break but kindly came down and let them in to put up the banners etc.
Decor done they returned to the resort.
At the start of the evening the lady owner called us and explained that when they opened the glass frontage of the restaurant the wind was blowing the decor about so they repositioned it to a table next to the rear wall.
In the evening we all walked to the restaurant and they had done a great job with the decor and believe me, Wifey is a stickler! They had even added some balloons as well.
The Birthday Girl was given her surprise and we sat down to eat.
We ordered the obligatory champagne and our meals.
The bubbles arrived and was, I am told, lovely.
There was some confusion over our drinks order and delivery but it all worked out ok.
When the starters arrived there was further confusion and bits missing, for example Wifey and I ordered the Calamari starter and Rissotto main but we only got one portion of each to share rather than one portion of both per person.
The Sirloin Steaks were ordered with various cooking choices such as rare, well done etc. However when the steaks arrived en masse the waiters didn't know which was which so it was down to the diners to cut them open and hand them out.
The food was fantastic despite these hiccups.
Deserts were ordered and again there was a misunderstanding on what our friends thought was the rum baba in the desert display and what they received but, again, the deserts were lovely.
The final wrinkle came when one of us ordered a dark rum and was given a dark liquid drink with a sprig of mint in it. When the older, white, male waiter was asked what it was he said it was Rum but it tasted like whisky, then he tried to say it was a Mojito, which, as you will know, is made with vodka and is a clear drink. When he was challenged about this he threw swore and stormed off into the kitchen from whence came an almighty clattering of dishes.
One of the other two waiters who had been serving us immediately came out, apologised for their colleague's behaviour, took the drink away and returned with the right drink.
It certainly gave us something to chat about on the walk back.
We had a birthday cake presentation that the staff were brilliant with and played Happy Birthday in Italian over the sound system. Our friend was overjoyed.
In conclusion the restaurant deserves 5 stars for the way the owner and her team accommodated us. The food was excellent as were the drinks. The two waiters were impeccable and were sorely let down by their rude colleague.
The other tables were mainly parties of a pair or three covers and had no issues that I know of and the place has quite a quick turnaround of tables.
Perhaps the 12 of us was just a little too much on that night but we did have a great time and will go back again.
Thank you. La Risacca
Angela and the rest of us loved her birthday party.
