Su Nuraghe

If you’re local to the area, please give this place a go. It’s different to its predecessor (Paparazzi) even if it looks almost exactly the same both outside and in. That’s probably why it’s taken me this long to finally give Su Nuraghe a go…
It was pretty quiet in the restaurant — possibly because of the England v Australia rugby game — which meant it was probably only around a quarter full.
I’m not the first to review Su Nuraghe but here’s where I disagree with Adam G… The menu. There’s nothing particularly daring or unusual about the menu, which is along the lines of what you’d find at most provincial Italian restaurants outside of London. There’s not much evidence of the Sardinian roots bar the odd dish, which I was really hoping for as someone who loves the regional specialities of Italian cuisine. It’s just my personal opinion but I would have LOVED Su Nuraghe to have focused the menu on Sardinian specialities along with a handful of staple Italian dishes rather than it being the other way round. That’s not to say I didn’t have a good meal; I did!
I went for the Gnochetti Sardi (small Sardinian pasta with Sardinian sausage and tomato sauce) to start as main size portion followed by veal in a cream and mushroom sauce. The latter wasn’t even on the menu and was kindly made to order. It was all very nice.
What I liked most about this place was the service. The staff had been totally accommodating from the moment we booked to the moment we left. They even obliged to cook my off-​piste order. I loved the warmth of service, which made me feel as though they genuinely wanted us to be there and to return.
I definitely will go back too.
Tip: unlike most restaurants these days, service isn’t automatically added to your bill so bare that in mind.

This is a quiet italian restaurant, with a lot of sardinian dishes. However, I’ve preferred the more typical Italian dishes here. The spaghetti bottarga (which I’ve had in Sardinia and was fantastic there) was the worst dish I’ve tried at Su Nuraghe.
Bring some cash for the tip! When they took my card to pay and then it was time to enter the pin there was nowhere to add a tip to the charge.
