But I/we never experienced anything like this… ever…We arrived there without a reservation and tried to order something for about 40 minutes. But even after trying to call someone (the personnel must have noticed it several times, no one came to our table. When we finally got hold of someone serving, he told that the lady responsible dot the table would come. But she didn’t and therefore, after a certain time, we decided to leave as it felt like begging. We were wondering what the reason is. Were we not well-dressed enough (we were just returning back from a trip? . Was it because we didn‘t reserve in advance? We will never know. We felt as they didn‘t want so serve us and disrespected. This is not how a customer should feel.

We went again for the same dish the next evening and the impression was confirmed. Tasty and well done also the typical Sardinian deserts with ricotta cheese and honey. The terrace is too hot since is covered by a kind of dome that makes the place also noisy. The lights need some adjustments, too bright. I would go again for pork, forget about the rest of the menu.....

The restaurant was 90% full and many tables occupied 3 times or more during our stay. Still the front of the house gave their everything running and still being highly attentative. Very fast service. The kitchen is doing a fantastic job, making the interplay of staff top notch. Food was good and fairly priced. Will visit again.

If you wish to eat very well prepared fish grill around Costa Rey, this place is a must visit. They offer also a number of pasta- based courses with fish. Their meat barbecue is also amazing. The porcheddu (local specialty- small pig) is spectacular: croccante and delicious! You need to book in advance as the place is always full evenings. Also kids friendly.
