This restaurant (and its hotel) belongs to the more touristy/international circle of locations on the island. Still, it remains a great place for an excellent meal that allows you to sample a variety of Sardinian specialities. The porcheddu is melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The service and decor are wonderful, and they host traditional performers from time to time. Of course, a meal... More

We ate here after seeing several great reviews but were slightly underwhelmed. The food was OK but far from the best in Sardinia. The service was adequate but the prices were OK (probably due to the smallish portion sizes). There is an open fire cooking area which is a great spectacle but if you are not staying at the hotel...

I ate here based on the glowing tripadvisor reviews. I had the wild boar gnocchetti followed by wild boar. Not bad. The highlight was the gelatto a la ricotta. For me, the bar on Sardegnian cuisine is pretty high & my experience would not make me want to go out of my way to eat here again. The patio is... More

Visited this restaurant during a vacation at Cala Gonone. We were two couples, going there with great expectations, given the reviews on several guides. It was a great disappointment!! We arrived in time, but we were re-directed to a bar far away, for reasons that I fail to understand, since there is a bar very close to the restaurant. Arrived... More

I think I was writing reviews from the part of our trip to Sicily in the same sitting as I was writing my reviews of Sicily. Of course, this is traditional Sardinian food, which is very very different from traditional Sicilian food. Both are great. Just different in many ways.

The place is lovely, the food very good. Really a place where you can stay all day if you just want to relax. The swimming pool is huge but opening late (9 in the morning), and closing early at 7:30 pm.

Traditional local food cooked in true sardinian style. Very simple cooking. The result is exceptional. Quite expensive, but the price is justified.

This Restaurant is the top place in Sardinia, I remember my father saying that since I was a child.... and it still IS. No other place can compare with the ambiance, the service, the food.... the gardens, the panoramic bar, the attention to every single detail... Everything was excellent... the restaurant was full as usual, also hosting a wedding, but... More

See Anthony Bourdain eating here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7_7BGBR62A starting at the 6:29 mark That's why we first decided to go here. Then the person who we rented our apartment from also recommended it. If you're nearby, definitely take an afternoon or an evening to go here. And get the roast pork. Whatever you do, get the roast pork. The skin is unbelievable.... More

The restaurant is not in the village, but I think it's worth driving just to eat there. Their main plate, the "porcetto", you can see how it's done on the fireplace. The decoration is traditional. The service was excellent, but I have to say, we were almost alone. I don't know how it is during the summes, with a lot... More
