Sardinian menu but with commercial products, starters with ham and bacon from the supermarket, coccio prenas and house peppers, good culurgiones but seasoned with garlic, good malloreddus, I was expecting the suckling pig but the porchetta arrived, not bad, good cacciatore meat but a little too salty, paid 50 euros, I was expecting more typical products, too bad.

We were at this enchanting place today. The scenery was beautiful, the hike was lovely, and the lunch was excellent, featuring fresh ingredients. A special thank you because they made my celiac son the same dishes, from appetizer to dessert, just like us (he was absolutely delighted). Congratulations! 😉

A charming place, a warm welcome, and service that deserves respect. Lunch or dinner in an atmosphere surrounded by greenery creates that sense of serenity and lightheartedness needed to recharge from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The dishes and desserts are beyond reproach.
We can't wait to return.

A lovely agriturismo in a fairytale setting offering traditional Ogliastra dishes. I visited Niala for lunch with friends. The location is enchanting, this small property nestled in the woods. The natural pools, accessible by a 10-minute walk from the restaurant, are also fantastic. The appetizers were delicious and plentiful. The Ogliastra culurgiones were truly spectacular, perfectly cooked, with an excellent filling and just the right amount of mint. The malloreddus with meat sauce had a few small flaws; the pasta was a touch overcooked for my taste. Another thing I found a bit odd was the parsley in a plate of pasta with ragù. I would have preferred thyme or rosemary instead. The main courses were excellent. The suckling pig had a very crispy rind, while the inside was truly juicy, and the mutton was tender and delicate. Overall a good experience, and the fixed price of €50 per person is more than fair in my opinion (booking on The Fork we paid €40 per person.

A disappointing experience, despite the beauty of the location
We booked an excursion followed by lunch at this enchanting farmhouse. Unfortunately, the beauty of the location wasn't enough to make up for a decidedly disappointing day.
The excursion turned out to be a long hike without significant stops: very few minutes of rest, no opportunity to stop and enjoy the scenery. After two hours of walking, we returned for lunch.
The appetizers were already on the table: five varieties, but only one portion per person. Truly paltry quantities. It wasn't possible to ask for seconds, because they also accommodated guests without reservations, further reducing the portions for those who had reserved well in advance.
The first courses arrived an hour later: gnocchi with tomato sauce and a sprinkling of meat, barely enough for two people, while there were four of us. The culurgiones, on the other hand, were excellent.
The second course was served at 4:30 PM, preceded by two baked potatoes each and some vegetables, which inexplicably arrived well before the suckling pig and lamb.
The service was chaotic: only two waiters for over 80 people, visibly exhausted and incapable of managing the room. The owners showed no attention, nor even the slightest concern for their guests. We had to ask for coffee and liqueurs ourselves.
In short, a place with great potential, but currently failing to thrive, especially in terms of food and organization. A real shame.

I had the pleasure of having lunch at Ristoro Niala and the experience was truly positive. The quality of the food is very high, with typical Sardinian dishes carefully prepared using genuine ingredients. The prices are fair for the quality and quantity of the dishes.
A great added bonus is the atmosphere: immersed in nature, with a truly pleasant relaxation area where you can stretch out in hammocks and enjoy the silence of the forest. The staff is kind and welcoming, always ready to make guests feel at home.
A place that combines good food, nature, and tranquility: I will definitely return and recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic experience in Ogliastra.

Se amate i sapori autentici fate un salto al Niala
