Monica e Ahmed
If you love seafood you’ll love it here. Start with a mixed antipasto – at the time of research this comprised swordfish carpaccio, fried calamari, tuna with beans, mussels, and lobster in vinaigrette – before moving on to the main event. You could play it safe with spaghetti ai frutti di mare (with mussels and clams) or push the boat out and order grilled giant prawns.

Cocco e Dessì
Smart, but not oppressively so, this is a popular modern restaurant. Well-dressed diners sit down to whopping pizzas and tasty, stylishly presented local food. Menu staples include polpi con patate (octopus with potato), served cold as an antipasto, and orata al vapore (steamed sea bream).

La Pulce Rossa
A 20-minute walk from the centre, this friendly family-run restaurant serves filling working-man’s fare at decidedly untouristy prices. For a real gut-buster try the house speciality, pennette ‘Pulce Rossa’, a rich concoction of pasta, giant prawns, cream and saffron.

Ristorante 7 Nani
A laid-back Sant’Antioco trattoria set-up with simple wood tables, a garden dining area and pictures of Snow White’s seven dwarves. The wood-fired pizzas are superb, the seafood is fresh and the local mirto (a berry-based liqueur) a sweet way to finish off.

Ristorante Pizzeria La Lampara
Down in a residential neighbourhood, this informal spot is popular with locals and visitors alike. Sit down on the roadside terrace and tuck into local speciality ravioli Gallurese dolci (sweet ravioli) or a crunchy fritto misto (mixed fish fry).

L’Osteria
Homey decor, friendly service, and authentic local food – this spot-on trattoria fits the bill perfectly. Everything about the place is right, from the bare brick walls and earthenware wine jugs, to the warm bread doused in olive oil and the gorgeous food.

La Torre
This place doesn’t look like much from outside; in fact, it’s not so amazing inside either. No matter, it serves the best pizza in town. If you’re off pizza but just want to enjoy the hectic atmosphere, there’s a full menu of pastas and grilled mains.

Trattoria Gennargentu
It doesn’t look much from outside but this no-frills trattoria serves excellent food. There’s a full menu of pastas and meaty mains but the seafood is particularly good. Try the spaghetti con arselle (with clams) and you’ll get the idea.

San Giorgio
One of the best eateries in Palau, this pizzeria-cum-restaurant is housed in a large chalet-style building near Hotel La Roccia. The pizzas are pretty good but pride of place goes to the spaghetti allo scoglio (with mixed seafood).

Trattoria Pizzeria L’Olimpico
Escape the obvious tourist traps to this popular local eatery in the bland streets east of Maddalena’s centre. The food is excellent – pizzas and the usual array of pastas, meats and seafood – and the friendly service a real pleasure.

Trattoria Da Gesuino
Hidden away in the newer part of town, Da Gesuino hits exactly the right tone. It’s relaxed but service is efficient, the interior is inviting and the food is excellent. Pizzas are always a good choice as is the delicious risotto.

Da Pietro
With its stone vaulted ceiling, intimate atmosphere and traditional menu, this is an archetypal Sardinian trattoria. If you’ve never had ricci (sea urchins), a prized local speciality, this is a good place to try them.

Antica Trattoria
Welcome to antipasto heaven. Trays of marinated anchovies, vegetables in olive oil, creamy potato salad and a whole lot more, just sit there waiting to be eaten. There’s also excellent pizza, pastas and failsafe meat dishes.

Il Fantasma
This boisterous pizzeria does the best pizza in Cagliari. Friendly waiters adroitly navigate the crowded barrel-vaulted interior to deliver bubbling pizzas straight from the wood-fired oven. Book or expect to queue.

Angedras Restaurant
Dining on Alghero’s honey-coloured stone ramparts is a memorable experience. This is one of the better restaurants on the walls, serving a largely traditional menu, including traditional roast suckling pig.

Osteria Enoteca da Liò
Go through the pretty ivy-clad exterior to enter this historic osteria, on the go since 1890. Don’t expect fusion frills, just hearty bowls of steaming pasta and fish grilled straight off the boat.

Osteria della Tonnara
Run by Isola San Pietro’s tuna cooperative, this is the place to try tonno alla carlofortina (tuna roasted and served with a tomato sauce). Booking is recommended and credit cards are not accepted.

Ristorante Pizzeria Al Castello
At the top of Carloforte, this is where locals come to get their pizza. A friendly, laid-back place with a spacious dining room and comprehensive menu, it’s well worth the short but steep climb to get here.

Aragon
A big bustling restaurant-cum-pizzeria just up from the seafront. It gets fairly hectic and the service isn’t exactly endearing but the wood-fired pizzas are superb and the pasta dishes are tasty and fresh.

Fronte del Porte
This bright and breezy spot is a good call for a portside fill-up. The comprehensive menu caters to most tastes with everything from panini and ice cream to pizza, pasta and steaks.
