We just ate there, and everything was good, like a home-style trattoria! We loved it! It's worth a try; we've been there 4 or 5 times! Always fresh fish and everything cooked simply, just like at home! The place is modest, but the quality remains the same! We'll be back!

This review is for the restaurant only.
If you’re a fan of ultra-fresh seafood served in a no-frills, genuinely local setting—this spot is a must.
What sets this restaurant apart is that it’s run by a family of fishermen, and the day’s menu reflects their daily catch. That means not only is everything incredibly fresh, but the offerings change constantly depending on what the sea has given them that day.
The restaurant has been around since the early 1960s, and it feels like a time capsule in the best possible way. The decor is part maritime museum, part rustic fisherman’s hideaway—with Roman anchors, ancient amphorae, shark jaws, and decades-old photos of giant tunas and sharks caught by the Murru family. Add to that the stunning view of the Capo Testa cliffs and Corsica in the distance, and you’ve got a truly unique atmosphere.
The food is simply prepared to highlight the quality of the ingredients, with generous portions perfect for sharing. One absolute must-try is the grigliata mista di pesce (mixed grilled fish platter). You’ll get a variety of whatever was caught that day, which could include lesser-known but delicious fish like mustela (greater forkbeard), palamita (bonito), sgombro (mackerel), as well as more familiar options like orata (gilt-head bream), spigola (sea bass), or triglia (red mullet). You can also choose a single whole fish to grill and share. I recently had grilled barracuda and I loved it.
I also highly recommend the antipasti misti di mare (mixed seafood appetizers). These are perfect for sampling a wide range of flavors and may include rare local specialties like palombetti in umido (small stewed shark), alletterato sott'olio (little tunny preserved in oil), and bocconcini di pesce spada (swordfish bites), alongside classics like cozze alla marinara (mussels in tomato-garlic sauce) and insalata di polpo (octopus salad). Be sure to ask what’s available that day—sometimes you’ll get lucky with off-menu treats like fried alici (anchovies).
The pasta and risotto dishes are equally impressive: think spaghetti alla pescatora, linguine ai cannolicchi (razor clams), Linguine con seppia (cuttlefish), spaghetti alle vongole (clams), spaghetti alla scarpara, or risotto al polpo (octopus risotto). Just a heads-up: ordering antipasti, pasta or risotto, and grilled fish in one meal is a lot of food. My suggestion? Visit twice—one meal focused on antipasti and grilled fish, the next on a pasta/risotto dish and grilled fish again.
This place is a gem—unpretentious, authentic, and unforgettable. I absolutely love it.

A very popular restaurant in the area for its quality/price ratio. The fish is always fresh. It has a beautiful view of the bay below and Bonifacio. Very friendly staff. It has a very convenient parking lot for customers. I go there almost every time I return to this wonderful area of Sardinia

La freschezza del "pescato del giorno" la semplicità del impiattamento e la cortesia del cameriere rendono l'esperienza "senza confronto".

Refined hotel in a dream location
In the evening you can see on the horizon some authentic wonders created by mother nature
Decent food as well as cleanliness
But it must be said, in fairness, that there is a lot of dust and keeping clean is an almost impossible task

Per me non equilibrato il rapporto qualità/prezzo. Per ambiente/ servizio/ presentazione piatti mi sarei aspettata un prezzo abbondantemente sotto la media dei prezzi dei ristoranti in centro a Santa Teresa di Gallura. E invece... tanto vale andare nei ristoranti in centro !

We ate fresh and excellent fish, quick service, perhaps due to the fact that it was early June, they were kind

A family-run restaurant where you can feel the authenticity from the first moment. The place is simple and a bit dated, but it has its own genuine charm, especially for those who love places without frills. Even though our table did not have a view, the location is still pleasant and relaxing. The strong point is definitely the cuisine: home-made dishes, abundant and tasty, prepared with passion and tradition.
