Luigi Pomata cooks Carloforte tuna in Cagliari, three rooms and a port-facing terrace above Viale Regina Margherita, raw fish to open and red tuna to follow.
Order: Red tuna, raw then seared, the house speciality.
Tip: Lunch service runs 13:00 to 15:00 Tuesday to Saturday and is the cheaper way in; tinned house tuna is sold to take home.
Amano is Vincenzo Sorvillo's Cagliari dining room on Via Sonnino, where five or seven plates are chosen off the Gran Carta and served as a tasting menu.
Order: The seven-plate tasting menu at 100 euro.
Tip: Five plates run 80 euro and seven run 100, drinks and service excluded; the Gambero Rosso 2026 guide gives it two forks at 80 points.
Terra sits on the ground floor of Palazzo Tirso in Cagliari, a central design kitchen turning Sardinian seasonal produce into a gourmet carte.
Order: The seasonal Sardinian tasting menu.
Tip: The same hotel runs the Cielo terrace upstairs, so book Terra for dinner and move up for a drink over the Golfo degli Angeli.
CUCINA.eat in Cagliari is shop, kitchen shop and counter in one on Piazza Galilei, cooking Sardinian recipes for communal tables near San Benedetto.
Order: Whatever is chalked up that day at the counter.
Tip: Counter seats beat the tables for solo lunch; wine by the glass and craft beer make it work as an aperitivo stop too.
Da Marino al St. Remy is Cagliari's small brick-walled seafood room by San Salvatore da Horta, run front of house by Marino Cogoni with Silvana Sardu cooking.
Order: Seafood antipasti, then a pasta with the day's catch.
Tip: The wine list leans hard on Sardinian growers; book, because the rooms hold only a few tables and Sunday is closed.
Duanima in Cagliari is chef Luca Floris's small contemporary room on Via Satta, a short menu rewritten every week around Sardinian produce and market fish.
Order: The weekly menu, whichever way it runs.
Tip: Only Saturday and Sunday have a lunch sitting; the rest of the week it is dinner from 20:00 and the room fills fast.
