ChiaroScuro di Marina Ravarotto In Cagliari

Das Restaurant befindet sich am Ende des Corso Vittorio Emanuele, in einem Abschnitt der Straße, der eher etwas ungastlich wirkt. Aber der Weg lohnt sich. Man wird freundlich begrüßt und im kleinen Gastraum platziert. Es gibt ca 16 Plätze; also unbedingt reservieren !! Die Speisen sind alle schön präsentiert und schmackhaft, der Guide Michelin liegt hier ganz richtig. Als herausragend empfand ich aber den Service von Barbara und Alessio - super Kundenorientierung und immer lächelnd. Grazie mille 😊

Su filendeu was absolutely amazing

Un  grazioso ristorante tranquillo e con pochi tavoli, una mise en place curata in ogni dettaglio, un'accoglienza cordiale e attenta. Viene offerto un piccolo aperitivo con spuma di formaggio da accompagnare a un pasticcino fritto al pecorino e una gradevole bevanda al sapore di zenzero, da bere in una maschera bianca di ceramica. La scelta delle loro pietanze è risultata per noi alquanto complicata, per la presenza di ingredienti a noi non graditi ed eccessivamente elaborati. Per cui ci siamo orientati sul classico tagliere di formaggio, che però aveva  porzioni troppo scarse da condividere in due; a seguire 1 porzione di petto d'anatra e 1 primo di pasta con  ceci e  maiale. Per finire due dolci molto buoni, la zuppa inglese e la seada. Due calici di vino e 1 bottiglia d'acqua, per un totale di circa 60 euro a persona. Un costo da noi ritenuto alquanto elevato, considerato che le porzioni erano davvero ridotte e la scelta dei piatti molto limitata, per i nostri gusti. Le tre stelle sono per la cortesia e professionalità del personale di sala

A lovely, quiet restaurant with just a few tables, a mise en place with attention to every detail, a friendly and attentive welcome. A small aperitif with cheese foam is offered to accompany a fried pecorino pastry and a pleasant ginger-flavoured drink, to be drunk in a white ceramic mask. The choice of their dishes was quite complicated for us, due to the presence of ingredients we did not like and were excessively elaborate. So we opted for the classic cheese platter, which however had portions too small for two to share; followed by 1 portion of duck breast and 1 first course of pasta with chickpeas and pork. Finally, two very good desserts, the trifle and the seada. Two glasses of wine and 1 bottle of water, for a total of around 60 euros per person. A cost we considered quite high, considering that the portions were very small and the choice of dishes very limited, for our tastes.

Place with few tables. Very particular menu with unusual but well-calibrated combinations. Mrs. Marina was very helpful in explaining the complex composition of the dishes. All very good, I don't give five stars because the price, although adequate for quality, is a little excessive in terms of quantity.

The food was really tasty. We can't say much negative about the flavors, but the portions were far too small. We had a starter, main course and dessert. I can understand that in a more refined restaurant the portions are smaller, but a main course that only consists of a small piece of meat and half a piece of chicory is simply not enough. If you, as a restaurant, give people the option to order a la carte, you as a restaurant must ensure that your portions are large enough. If you, as a passerby, just think: "I want to eat here" and you only order a main course with the idea of ​​having a full meal, then you have come to the wrong place. The restaurant would be better off offering some set menus without an a la carte choice. This way, as a customer, you always have enough to eat and you will not be faced with any unpleasant surprises. The service was good. The woman who served us did her best to explain everything to us in English. That was very sweet. The wine she recommended was really tasty and paired well with the dishes. The restaurant offers many local dishes, which is certainly an asset.

Nice food and heart behind the menu but the service was a little awkward even though we were the only people in the restaurant- the waiter was on her phone a lot and we had to beg her attention. The front of the restaurant has sliding doors and bright lights like a cheap cafe. They brought a special candle for my husband's birthday which was much appreciated. Quite expensive which would be ok if the service matched.

Restaurant with Sardinian cuisine located near the center of Cagliari. As soon as we arrived we were served a non-alcoholic welcome drink inside a ceramic mask, accompanied by a particular finger food. We continued with three appetizers: turnip terrine and raw ham, snails and purpuzza, casizolu from Montiferru. As first courses, we ordered two filindeu and two gravellus (both typical Sardinian pastas). For main courses, we ordered two priest's hats to share. The meal concluded with five desserts, including one (seadas) in the center. During the meal we sipped a bottle of rosé and drank some water. The bill came to €243.50. The service during dinner was good, the food is undoubtedly of high quality, but the price is excessive compared to the quality of the place. I found the choice to charge for the "extra" basket of bread in bad taste. Furthermore, you may feel uncomfortable because, during dinner, there were several prying glances from passers-by. The dish that I liked most and which positively surprised me was the turnip and raw ham terrine, filindeu and seadas should also be mentioned. The latter is very close to the flavor of the seadas I ate as a child, with the acidic cheese difficult to find in Cagliari. The place is worth a try to taste su filindeu and gravellus, two typical and little-known pastas. It is also possible to purchase the package on filindeu to be able to cook it at home.

Excellent cuisine. Attentive service. Unfortunate location, unfortunately: lighting needs to be significantly improved. Very messy place with no personality. A cuisine of this level deserves and needs another type of location (especially for the level of the bill). Won't be back.
