L'angolo di Pinna In Cagliari

17/07/2025: A historic and renowned restaurant in Costa Rei, in Monte Nai, 300 meters from the sea. It has a parking lot with approximately 20 spaces, reserved only because of signs, but other cars are also available. Located in a small cluster of restaurants that typify the town's central area. Recently renovated, the restaurant blends modern style with traditional touches, seating about 100 people in the garden, porch, and indoor areas. Primarily known for its seafood, although it also offers meat-based dishes. The menu isn't extensive, but the dishes are refined and beautifully presented, with gourmet pretensions. The wine list is also good. The wait staff is very friendly and always available to accommodate your needs. We tried the seafood appetizer tasting menu, which was satisfying, except for one dish featuring farro and seafood, which we found to be flavorless. We then waited over half an hour for the first courses, but the seafood pasta was excellent, as was the linguine creamed in salted butter, loin roe, stracciatella, and red shrimp tartare; it's a shame the latter arrived practically cold. The dessert selection was also good. The bill was quite reasonable, in line with other restaurants in the area. Our expectations were probably too high, so we weren't entirely satisfied. It's still worth trying.

13/07/2025: Beautiful place, young and slightly awkward waiters. The food is beautifully presented on a giant monitor showing the preparations in the kitchen. It's a shame they don't respect what arrives at the table. The dishes served aren't bad, but they don't live up to expectations, much less the price. A missed opportunity, barely three stars.
