Truly amazed

I went there because of the previous reviews on this restaurant.
I told the waiter I was vegan and it made him enthusiast (not used to that) !
I had five small portions of what they usually use for sides as a starter. And great yummy pasta with vegetables as a main. It doesnt sound great but the quality of the products eventually made it a perfect meal. And the place is nice and packed with locals.
Starter(s) meal = 23€

Pros: Enthusiasm toward veganism, Great quality

Cons: No vegan options labeled as such

Mille portate originali buone e colorate. Che sorpresa!

Nel menù non ci sono opzioni vegane, ma voi ditelo al cameriere che siete vegani. Meglio ancora dirlo in fase di prenotazione. Mi sono arrivati tantissimi piatti, tutti buoni e colorati e belli (vedi foto con descrizioni). Le persone intorno che mangiavano pesce mi guardavano e sicuramente anche loro volevano quelle cose 😂 una meraviglia! Io sono rimasta veramente stupita! Meraviglia! Ditelo che siete vegani, mi raccomando, non fermatevi al menù!

Best lunch I've ever had.

This was one of those meals where I wish I had taken notes. I had read a blog post that someone had about randomly stopping in this restaurant, asking about vegan options and having their minds blown. My stopping here for lunch wasn't random but my mind was certainly blown. The server was so kind when I shared my vegan ways and conferred with the chef before telling me they could make me a special antipasti course and the famous Sardinian pasta dish - fregola (note, i couldn't find vegan fregola anywhere else on my Sardinian journey).

Dish after dish came out with vegan delights. The first was a simple shaved raw zucchini and carrot salad with soy sauce. Next were perhaps the highlights due to me not having had sauteed dark greens in over a week and the inventiveness of the dishes. Both are pictured in this listing - one was the Sardinian shepherd's bread rolled up with dark local greens inside and the other was a thin noodle pasta that was rolled and fried and filled with vegetables (it's a crime that I can't remember exactly which vegetables). The rolls came with sauces and relishes. I could eat them every day.

Next was a braised fennel dish that was cooked to perfection, and then the famous fregola (sooo good!). It was A LOT of food and I did my best to eat it all. This place is special, and quite affordable, especially when compared to coastal dining. At the end of the meal, the server shared that a vegan photographer from LA frequents the restaurant. Perhaps that's why they're always ready for us, I don't know, but I hope to go back. Anyone reading this review should make a meal here a priority. I don't know if they prefer you have reservations or not, but at lunchtime we walked right in and everything was perfect.

Pros: Special vegan antipasti dishes, very affordable, vegan fregola
