Beautiful restaurant, relaxed but chic atmosphere, excellent food and generous portions (I had to leave two pieces of monkfish because I was full!). We took a Rais menu and a seafood tasting menu: what delights!! We will definitely be back next year - when we go on holiday again. Honest prices for excellent quality. Impeccable service, the waitress very kind, prepared, professional and fast.

This restaurant looked completely unassuming from the outside. It is on the hillside approach to the Basilica from the town of Sant’Antioco, and like many places in this part of the town it can be easily mistaken for a private residence. However, it should not be missed as their seafood menu is delightful and the service super-friendly and efficient.
The restaurant is normally open in the evening from 19:30. It has 3 regularly changing set menus, meat, seafood and mixed, that consist of a antipasto dish and 2 further dishes (normally some kind of pasta and some kind of main focused on one particular ingredient). Each of these menus cost between 35-45 Euros and you can add a glass of local wine for a further 3 Euros.
I had a truly inspiring meal that started with a luxuriously tasty and herby prawn tartare, followed by a mindblowing blue crab salad, ingeniously served in the crab shell. I had never had anything like this before and it really did maximise every ounce of natural flavour within the crab itself, making for a refreshing palate cleanser. My pasta dish was a local tuna and gnocchi dish, rich with vibrant tomato and caper flavours, which made for a hearty and homely centrepiece of the menu. The final dish some how managed to trump all that had come before. It was, like so much in this restaurant, a simple looking affair, which hid deceptive depths of perfectly balanced flavour. It was a cold monkfish salad, that comprised of slices of fresh monkfish marinated in a olive oil, salt and thyme, served with sweet tomatoes, bitter radicchio leaves, crisp red onion and drenched in lemon juice. It was as delicious a dish as I have tasted and well worth the visit alone.
The space itself is a roomy taverna, with very clean and bright decor. The owners have a disarmingly quirky eye for little decorative details, with curling light fixtures, that dangled from the ceiling like gourd fruit and walls festooned with spectacles and slightly off-centre prints. It gave the space a real fun vibe, which was carried through in the service that was personable and attentive without ever once seeming forced.
All in all this is a place well worth a visit, even if you are staying on the Sardinian mainland.

We chose two fish menus. Dishes outside the standard menus: beautiful to look at, but above all excellent to eat. Highly recommended for anyone passing by here. Last but not least excellent service.
