A few kilometers from the Airport you will find a city rich in history and natural beauty waiting for you.

In the colorful historic center you can find the famous medieval towers (such as those of the Elephant and San Pancrazio), the scenic Bastions (Saint Remy, Santa Croce, Santa Caterina and the Bastion of Balice), the Citadel of Museums and many alleys teeming with restaurants, bars and boutiques. A not-to-be-missed stop for those who love food and typical products is also the San Benedetto Civic Market, among the largest covered markets in Europe. Sea and nature enthusiasts, on the other hand, can range between the Molentargius-Saline Park with its pink flamingos, the Cagliari Lagoon and the beautiful Poetto city beach.

Where to eat
Among the historic alleys or facing the sea, to taste the best Sardinian delicacies.
Have you ever tasted the typical dishes of the city of Cagliari? The most famous are fregula con cocciula (fregola with clams), su mazzamurru (made of stale bread soaked in broth, with cheese and tomato sauce or sa burrida (a recipe in which dogfish is accompanied by walnuts). Surely these are flavors that are hard to forget, as is all Sardinian cuisine that you can taste in characteristic places in the historic center or in romantic locations by the sea. Traditional or revisited cuisine, sea or land: the important thing is to accompany it all with an excellent wine (perhaps Sardinian) and end with a typical dessert that will satisfy both sight and taste.
Here are our tips on where to eat in Cagliari:
Ancient Cagliari
Antica Cagliari includes three different venues: a traditional cuisine restaurant in the Marina district, the "Lungomare e Terrazza" on Poetto beach (which also offers pizza) and the cozy Bistrot, dedicated to more creative Mediterranean offerings. The menu consists of meat and fish dishes and offers original recipes that enhance traditional Sardinian cuisine in the best way.
Sa domu sarda
Sa Domu Sarda is an osteria near Via Roma, included in Slow Food's Osterie d'Italia guide thanks to its careful search for local and quality raw materials, small wine producers and traditional recipes. In fact, the kitchen offers a menu with meat dishes, those that come from the rural and pastoral culture of the Sardinian tradition. Some alternatives for vegetarians, cheeses, traditional breads and typical desserts complete the culinary offerings.
Breads and Casu
With predominantly earthy dishes and a terrace from which to admire the city and the Gulf of Cagliari, Pani e Casu is a great option for a dinner to sample traditional Sardinian cuisine. Don't miss the famous porcetto (made to order), as well as the typical appetizers and desserts. In addition to the outdoor space, a characteristic indoor dining room is also available to guests.
