Hotel Ristorante Il Nido Dell'Aquila In Villagrande strisaili

01/03/2025: I had a lot of expectations from you when we came from Cagliari to try you out. So we traveled 300 km. We arrived and met a girl who worked for you and she seated us. He brings us the menu and we started choosing. To drink a beer and a coke A tartare with egg and truffle. A grand prize asked for 1 kg A double hamburger sandwich A side dish of baked potatoes A coffee at the end Total 92 euros Let's go in order: professional waitress who did her job impeccably, satisfying us on everything. Good food but we didn't leave with a (wow) we ate well, the meat was good but I expected it to be more tender given that it was cooked rare and less fibrous. Many parts had fibers which prevented me from eating it peacefully and was very annoying. Perfectly rare, but I think the griddle on which it is served kills the tenderness of the meat, so much so that if you don't eat it quickly, it continues to cook and harden. I really liked the tartare. My partner found the sandwich very good and I agree too after trying it with a bite. The side dish was not satisfactory due to the lack of transparency on the cooking method. They were baked potatoes but it should be said that they are in the skin and made differently from the usual ones that everyone expects from oven cooking. In segments so to speak. In any case, good. I have 4 negative notes or at least personal notes: 1) I believe a side dish should be assigned with the purchase of a steak given the price paid. 2) carrying food across the street on a rainy day like the one found, wets the food brought to the table. I believe it is also a non-compliance of a culinary nature as it is not good in terms of hygiene. 3) the weight of the meat is always in excess and never underweight. I advise you to communicate any type of weight other than the one chosen. It's called transparency. In the end I had to ask you after giving me the receipt. 4) bathroom uncomfortable to reach and I feel sorry for those who cannot reach it safely. Work tools all grouped together awaiting completion of the work. I don't think I'll go back and I don't feel like recommending it.

20/02/2025: Although my love for Ogliastra might risk making my review non-objective, I can confirm that the food is excellent and the quality of the dishes is excellent, I like the place a lot and the staff is kind and welcoming.
