We went for lunch on April 25, 2026.
My husband, my father, and I had a wonderful time 🤗.
The trattoria offers dishes that truly reflect authentic Sardinian cuisine.
Fresh fish dishes, cooked according to Sardinian tradition.
Each dish was better than the last 😋.
Special mention for the walnut burrida and the wonderful fritto misto.
The price? Excellent, I'd say, considering the right quantity and quality of the dishes.
We'll definitely be back...
Also because we're waiting for the eels 😋🤗

I'm sorry I can't add one more star for the food, when I come here I feel like I'm having lunch with my cousins and aunts when I was a child, thank you for being here in Cagliari and not elsewhere. Thank you and THANK YOU FOR EXISTING.

I visited La Balena in 2006 and 2018. Hope to be back next year. It is not for social media, no michelin stars, no ameritalian food. It is for local dishes and tradition. Keep going La Balena.
I went today with my mom, I felt at home, fresh and well cooked fish, family atmosphere and lots of kindness, I will definitely be back

We finally had dinner at Balena for the first time, after hearing so much about it. It was like stepping back in time: a seafood dinner with simple, intense flavors, hard to find elsewhere, especially in an era where dishes seem to need to be overly elaborate to have an identity. I think the choice of simple dishes is perfect for showcasing the quality of the ingredients. Straightforward and unfussy, some might not like it, but for me it was a wonderful discovery. Moving ❤️ Rating 10

We were delighted to be at La Balena restaurant, where we enjoyed the wonderful dishes prepared by Mrs. Cristiana...😋 unsurpassed fried food and prawns that brought back memories of our youth... 👏🏼👏🏼 Compliments also go to Gigi, who served us with professionalism and kindness (brullendi)🔝

Expectations were very high. Unfortunately, they were not met... Sunday lunch. 4 starters, not abundant and obvious... no first course unless made to order... they made up for it with the mixed fried fish and the Sardinian desserts, but not mixed... two pardule and amaretti... I don't think I'll frequent the place again... bill 30 euros per person
