Antica Hostaria ★ 4.1

€€€ ItalianMarina

Antica Hostaria on Via Cavour is the old-school Cagliari osteria of the Marina, dark wood and a fish-led list of Sardinian classics under Antonio Mura.

OrderFregula con arselle, or the baked capon with artichokes and potatoes.

TipClosed Sunday. The room started as a mid-nineteenth-century inn and the kitchen still leans on the fish list rather than the printed classics.

€€ ItalianVillanova

La Locanda dei Buoni e Cattivi in Cagliari is a villa restaurant and guest house that trains young staff, cooking seasonal organic Sardinian plates.

Trattoria Lillicu ★ 4.6

€€ SeafoodMarina

Trattoria Lillicu has fed the Marina from Via Sardegna for generations, marble tables, no printed menu, and whatever the Cagliari boats landed that morning.

OrderSpaghetti with arselle clams and bottarga.

TipDo not ask for a menu, the waiter recites the catch; arrive by 13:00 or after 14:00 to miss the queue. Monday the trattoria stays shut.
