Stella Marina Di Montecristo

We had a great experience here. The seafood held a high standard and the way we were served food was fun. I especially liked the starter platter and the fregola. The restaurant is quite hidden and it feels a bit like stepping into someone’s living room, in a good way!

These star ratings do not express how excellent this place is!!!! We had dinner last night there, booked by a dear friend of ours. From start to finish, it was hands down a 1 of a kind experience. Especially for fish, seafood lovers.. 😋. 1stly, it is not a buffet, and it is not a la carte. We had a 'chef created' 4 course range. Fully loaded with all sorts of deliciousness 😋 . The shrine created for the much loved late Gigi Riva is so sweet and soulful. The owner and the waiter are very professional yet warm. The passion for their local produce is encouraging. I would highly recommend it for excellent food, customer service, and soulfulness all at excellent prices!!

Great food and experience. As expected from other reviews no choice on menu except wine/red wine and aqua con gas or not. Everyone gets the same thing (except if you are 3 years old). The lace looked closed when we got there, a bit dark. My wife was very skeptical until the first course arrived. Was full of people when we left. Use what's app to get reservation.

Amazing seafood in a cozy environment. The owner was so friendly. The food was delicious. A definite must

I really recommend this restaurant, last week when my best friend came here, we took her to this restaurant for lunch, she said it’s the BEST FISH that she ever had, and that she didn’t know you can make fish this good. They have a fixed menu, so even if you don’t understand Italian or know how to order, it’s okay. It was a weekday, but still kind of packed, so I recommend you to book it in advance. We will definitely come again.

An overall charming experience. This place is like going back in time. The only dining option is a fixed menu for €35 per person, whether you go at lunch or dinner. The fixed menu removes any pressure for people who have a hard time choosing (like me 😅) or who suffer from FOMO. It varies a bit based on what fish they get that day, but we had: mixed seafood antipasti, fregula with chrevette, and as the last course sea bass and fried calamari. All this was accompanied by water, wine, bread, and some shots of mirto to cap it off. All the seafood was super fresh. Any criticisms of the food were minor and very subjective: a bit more salt here, a bit less breading there. I’d definitely recommend it for anyone who likes seafood. The restaurant is a dark windowless room whose theme can best be described as “soccer and sea,” and which feels highly authentic compared to the newer more modern restaurants in Cagliari. The owner and waiter were both very nice, with the owner coming to the table after each course to ask how everything was. How a restaurant should be! Definitely reserve. We stopped by on a Saturday night to reserve for Monday lunch.

I feel that this place is just inaccessible or they are totally not open to foreigners/non Italian speakers. Even though I came early, they said they are fully booked, I tried calling them several times on the number provided, no one picks up, so it’s almost impossible to make a reservation. I also tried to reserve via Whatsapp, which didn’t work, even in low season. I feel there are way too many better places in Cagliari with excellent customer service and fresh seafood ;) No luck here.

Best quality for price in town. This place is genuine and food is delicious. It’s like traveling back in time to a dimension of authenticity, extremely fresh food and uncompromising hospitality. We had a full 4 course menu comprised of a large antipasto di mare, fregola with shrimps, fried and grilled fish, fruit wine. Giacomo the owner comes in the end with free shots of mirto :) Make sure to reserve in advance - go in person or send and sms if you don’t manage by phone - and be ready to eat a lot of good food for a ridiculously low price.
