Among Rome's vast array of Sardinian restaurants, Cala Luna, which I had only heard of, represents a remarkable and delightful experience. Here, Sardinian cuisine is revisited with innovative preparations and impeccable quality ingredients, without sacrificing the island's traditional flavors and aromas.
The quality of each course is absolutely excellent, and the discovery of unusual combinations never feels unpleasant or cloying; on the contrary, it invites you to return. The cooking is perfect, and the presentations are beautiful, simple, yet captivating.
Among the many delicacies, I encourage you to try the mixed antipasto: a marvelous array of delicacies, both hot and cold, that alone is almost worth a meal. The spaghetti with clams and bottarga are noteworthy, finally free of the obscene creams so popular today, and perfectly sized for the portions, yet packed with clams.
Also noteworthy are the exquisite apple pie with ice cream and the nougat semifreddo.
The wine list boldly features a wide variety of Vermentinos, each with its own unique winery and terroir. We chose a magnificent Vermentino di Gallura Superiore "Lupus in Fabula," which perfectly complemented the food.
The service is simple and friendly, but entirely adequate; the presentation and flow of the dishes are absolutely perfect.
The atmosphere is very pleasant and, although not large, very well managed.
The bill isn't cheap, but it's fair for what's on offer.
In conclusion, we'll have to return to savor all the culinary delights on the extensive menu.

Good food and fair prices, small but welcoming atmosphere, but unfortunately, service could be improved. Lack of clarity and difficulty communicating with the non-Italian waitress.

An intimate and quiet restaurant, chosen for a birthday lunch. Excellent traditional Sardinian dishes, as well as seafood and meat dishes. A wide selection of wines and desserts. We ordered first courses, a small appetizer, and excellent freshly fried baby octopus. We'll be back.

I visited this Sardinian restaurant for the first time with my wife, and I must say that I expected a good dinner based on the exterior. I wasn't disappointed; the place is small, but the small number of tables keeps it discreet and quiet.
The menu is good, featuring well-cooked fish, well-presented, and with just the right amount of servings. The desserts are excellent, with excellent seadas. We'll be back.
