Ristorante Su Murruai

Amazing Restaurant! I made a reservation before it was mentioned in the Michelin guide and it exceeded expectations! It was so good we dined here two times during our 4 night stay in the area. We could have come every night 😀 Creative, innovative, modern cuisine with a focus on local ingredients. The staff and chef’s wife are welcoming and provide excellent service . 100% recommend!

This elegant restaurant has a clean and delicate interior design that immediately sets a refined tone. The menu is concise, focusing mainly on fish and seafood dishes, with a meat option for each course. A tasting menu is available with 3, 5, 7, or 9 courses, though it must be ordered for the entire table. A unique feature is that diners can curate their tasting experience by selecting the courses from the à la carte menu. The presentation of each dish was stunning, with minimalistic yet thoughtful plating, always featuring a pop of color. The ravioli with goat, saffron foam, and liquorice was a highlight – the sweet liquorice perfectly balanced the airy saffron foam and the savory goat meat. The eucalyptus smoked mullet filet was another highlight, impressively infused with a delicate, smoky flavor. However, a few dishes fell short. The mixed Neapolitan pasta was unbalanced, with too much acidity from the dried lime and tomato base. The pasta was inconsistently cooked – some pieces al dente, others overcooked. The dark chocolate dessert was flavorful, but we were disappointed that the promised olive oil component was swapped for an almond biscuit without prior notice. It would have been more professional for the kitchen to inform us of this change beforehand, giving us the option to choose a different dessert. Service-wise, while polite and professional, it lacked warmth. The wait time between courses was notably long, around 20 minutes, making the meal feel overly drawn out. Additionally, we were only informed of the alcohol content in two dishes after they were served, which should have been communicated when ordering (e.g., for pregnant women, intolerance purposes). For the area, the price point is on the higher end, especially given the portion sizes and the extended wait times. While the dishes were enjoyable, the flavors described on the menu didn’t always translate to the dishes themselves. All in all, a good dining experience with potential, but certain aspects could be refined for a truly standout meal.

She had the seafood tasting menu, while I had the 'land'. It's a good menu, very ambitious. Lots of strong flavors but some didn't really work as well. The blue cheese amuse bouche set the tone...this was crazy strong and kind of overwhelmed the first courses. They made a mistake with our dessert (left parchment paper on the crisp, woops!) And there was a bug on the table. So it goes sometimes..

Just a perfect dinner,beautiful food,very friendly staff,great wine. We had the seven courses Menue,enjoyed every course and especially the pasta was delicious. Thanks for that wonderful Sardinian food !!

Excellent dishes and good service. Well balanced flavours and great plating. We had a very nice evening in this restaurant. I expect they will receive a Michelin star someday.

We had a wonderful gourmet dinner. A little gem hidden in Riola Sardo. Besides the food the atmosphere and staff were very kind and helpful. A must go when in the area!

This restaurant is absolutely worth a detour. A hidden pearl in Sardinia with more than excellent cuisine. It is sublime. It is worth a Michelin star. An international cuisine with local ingredients from local suppliers, beautifully served on your plate and full of thousand and one tastes. A real must to stop at to experience a wonderful diner with lovely staff.
