“Il Portolano”
The uniqueness of the Restaurant Il Portolano is based our vast experience in Europe’s finest restaurants and our unconditional love for Sardinia. Who chooses our place for having lunch or dinner is looking for quality food, Mediterranean culinary tradition, refined wines, professional service and authentic environment. Our recipes combine the intense flavours of the sea with the delicacy of vegetables and the character of the spices, offering a simple but cutting-edge cuisine. The wine list, entirely based on Sardinian wines, is created with passion by looking for labels among traditional and up-and-coming wineries. The whole experience is enhanced by a charming and professional service.
“Location”
Located just a few steps from the sea, next to the little haven of Porto San Paolo, Il Portolano is surrounded by a truly unique setting, characterized by the incredible view of the Tavolara island. The venue is composed by several internal and external verandas and terraces and a romantic garden framed by marine pines. The interiors are furnished in a rustic and tasteful way.
At lunch, our guests can enjoy the sea breeze whilst looking at the infinite shades of turquoise of the Tyrrhenian Sea. In the evening, Tavolara blushes with its rocks turning red at sunset; the sea breeze wanes and the candles are lit making everything even more special.
“Enjoy Sardinia with all your senses”
The Portolano experience involves all five senses: the taste of our dishes; the scent of Sardinian wine, the sight of the Mediterranean sea; the sound of the undertow; and the touch of the wind with one’s skin.
