Old Friend Cagliari

"Situated slightly away from the city’s main shopping district, this restaurant has a fresh and trendy feel with music playing in the background and friendly, efficient service in the dining room. Although the dishes change with the seasons, quality and flavour are constant throughout. Our inspector recommends the raw fish with  pico de gallo (a Mexican sauce) and bottarga or the conchiglioni pasta with mutton ragu, bechamel sauce and samphire." - Michelin Inspector

The 16 Best Restaurants in Sardinia | Eater

"Dario Torabia and Luigi Serra opened this restaurant with the aim of making guests feel like they are at the home of an old friend — albeit a friend who is young, has a large street art collection, and listens to Rancid (who made the song for which the restaurant is named). The food is deeply rooted in the flavors of southern Sardinia but often incorporates ingredients from across the globe. Standout dishes include braised legumes with casu axedu (a brined cheese), black garlic, and miso; and smoked fish with sour cream, beets, dill, and abbamele (an ancient Sardinian honey product). The wine list is filled with fun natural wine from the island and the mainland." - Katie Parla
