Alghero Sardinia Restaurants
| |
Alghero is justifiably renowned for its fresh fish and seafood and this can be sampled
when eating out at one of the many restaurants in the old town.
With its Catalan history it is no surprise
to find paella on some restaurant menus and another popular local specialty is lobster
(aragosta). The general standard of cuisine available in Alghero is high and in addition to seafood
encompasses a full range of other Sardinian favourites.
Here are some suggestions for places to eat in the old town.

1. Mabrouk
Via Santa Barbara 4 - 079 970 000.
A small and intimate seafood restaurant hidden down a cobbled street near the marina.
The single set menu of 4 courses allows diners to experience as many as ten different types of fresh locally
caught seafood with as much wine and water as required.
2. Casablanca
Via Principe Umberto 76 - 079 983 353.
This popular restaurant/pizzeria is a good choice for al fresco dining. In addition to the
main low-vaulted dining room there is an outdoor terrace
on the piazza opposite.
3. Al Vecchio Mulino
Via Don Deroma 3 - 079 977 254.
Tucked away in the centre of the old town the
unassuming entrance to this inexpensive restaurant leads into a vaulted and atmospheric
dining area. Friendly staff serve from the excellent pizza/pasta based menu.
4. Trattoria Cavour
Via Cavour 110 - 079 973 8479.
Trattoria Cavour is located on the street of the same name, set a few yards from the old town ramparts.
The small comfortable dining room is a good place for savouring the selection of Sardinian meat and fish specialities
on offer.
5. Al Tugari
Via Maiorca 113 - 079 976 772.
The literal translation of this restaurant name is "hovel"
which today is somewhat ironic given the attractive surroundings of the old building.
Spread over three floors the menu contains high quality examples of current Mediterranean and Catalan influenced cuisine.
6. Nettuno
Via Maddalanetta 4 - 079 979 77.
This restaurant/pizzeria has great views over the marina from an outside balcony (additional charge) in addition to a roof terrace which is open in the summer.
The location does mean higher than average prices.
