Fodor's Expert Review La Lepanto
$$
Alghero
Seafood
A covered veranda by the seafront marks out Alghero's top seafood restaurant, an expansive and sunny room complete with crustacean-filled aquarium. Summer sees crowds of both locals and tourists, many of whom come for the specialty aragosta (lobster) cooked different ways, including with linguine or alla Lepanto (with tomato, onions, and orange). In winter, when lobster isn't always available, sample the ricci (sea urchins). For starters, try linguine alle vongole e bottarga di muggine (pasta with clams and dried mullet roe).
