I Frati Rossi
In the hills above Porto Cervo, this soothing hideaway—where a sheltered terrace looks out onto a verdant garden—is a great place to take a break from the coast's glossy trappings. Recommended antipasti include sa cannacca (dried sausage with pecorino cheese) and octopus salad with potatoes; ravioli di cernia e carciofi (homemade ravioli with grouper fish, artichokes, and truffle) is a great pasta choice; and the grilled fish is an excellent main. Although seafood is the specialty, there are some notable meat dishes, too, such as osso buco that melts off the bone. A tasting menu is sometimes available. The restaurant lies 3 km (2 miles) south of Porto Cervo, in the Pantogia neighborhood.
