This elegant but simply furnished Michelin-starred restaurant near the port offers modern and creative Italian haute cuisine on two wide-ranging tasting menus (€110 and €145 per person), consisting of a series of dishes that are only revealed when presented to your table (any food allergies can be communicated beforehand). Dal Corsaro shares its chef, Stefano Deidda, and kitchen with the adjacent, more casual Fork bistro, where the à la carte and prix-fixe lunch menus include such mouthwatering dishes as lobster salad with burrata and fried fennel bread, seafood stew, and risotto with chicory, pig's cheek, and cannonau wine; there's a separate oyster menu, too. Fork has tables outside in spring and summer.

Brotherly love (and ownership) and quality seafood are among the things that make this old-town restaurant so exceptional. Modern artwork, stone pillars, and arched ceilings help to provide a fitting setting for the predominantly traditional cuisine livened up with modern elements. Appetizers created by the Ladu brothers might include caviar with artichoke, octopus salad, and smoked salmon buttered with goat cheese and rolled into a crepe. The seasonal menu always features local fish and might include homemade pastas such as maccheroncini neri con calamari (squid ink pasta with clams, calamari, and zucchini puree). Desserts such as ginger ice cream and chocolate lava cake are not to be missed. Service is attentive and welcoming. Booking is recommended.

The gilded Antico Caffè once served as an intellectual haunt for famous writers like D.H. Lawrence and Grazia Deledda, who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1926. With its street-front terrace and polished-wood interior, it has anchored the base of the Bastione di St. Remy since 1855, serving as a social center from breakfast time until well after midnight; the menu features local fish and meat specialties. You can also get pastas, salads, and such desserts as tiramisu and elaborate artisanal gelato coupe concoctions. A granita di caffè con panna is sublimely refreshing on a hot summer afternoon.

Steps from the tourist office, you can take a refreshing afternoon break with a coffee and a pastry or panino. The friendly café has outdoor tables on the corner of Piazza Eleonora, which retains an old-world charm thanks to a neoclassical town hall, a marble monument to Giudichessa Eleonora carved by the Florentine sculptor Ulisse Cambi in 1881, and the 18th-century Mameli palace with its beautiful wrought-iron balconies.

Entering this antique, vaulted, and frescoed bar a stone's throw from the port is like stepping back into the 19th century. Order a steaming cappuccino, a glass of the local vermentino, or a freshly squeezed fruit juice, and nibble on a panino, a pizzetta, or a pastry. It's all served with politeness and heaps of old-fashioned charm.

The building dates from 1925 but the interior shows a diversity of styles, with the main dining area (one of five) inside a glass gazebo. Dishes featuring fresh catches of the day, vegetables, and herb-infused sauces are complemented by pizzas and pastas—just save room for a dessert of crème caramel topped with walnuts and chocolate or pastry with Chantilly cream and berries. The staff and clientele are mostly young Italians, so prepare for a buzzy, high-spirited atmosphere.

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. The restaurant lies 3 km (2 miles) south of Porto Cervo, in the Pantogia neighborhood.

This backstreet trattoria has a strong rustic flavor, its two rooms adorned with brass cooking pots, colorful embroideries, old photographs, and agricultural knickknacks. The menu, too, has a local focus and might include tagliolini pasta with squid ink, artichokes, and prawns or sliced tuna with rocket and strawberries. Two open fires keep everything toasty in winter, and there are tables in the alley for dining alfresco in warm weather.

Fresh flowers on white linen tablecloths add color to the bright glass-enclosed dining area of this delightful eatery on busy Piazza Sulis; gold-framed paintings and oversize wine bottles capped in wax add Italian charm—as does the seasonally changing menu of pasta and seafood dishes such as tagliolini with mullet roe, artichokes, and pecorino cheese, or potato-stuffed culurgiones topped with sheep's cheese, dried tomatoes, and wild rocket. The four-course prix-fixe menu (€55) includes an appetizer, two tastings of pasta, two of seafood, and a traditional dessert, with coffee to follow.

At this family-run local spot, the rustic dining area—with terra-cotta floors, brick pillars, and a wood-burning stove—is packed nearly every night. The service, presentation, and wine list are as exceptional as the food: only the freshest local meats and cheeses are served, and all the dishes are made from scratch, including the pizza, the pasta, and the ice cream drizzled with honey. Orchestrated by chef Francesco Nanu, the menu might feature such starters as culurgiones (ravioli) stuffed with toasted almonds, orange zest and guanciale (cured pig cheek) followed by courses of grilled seafood, lamb with fresh broad beans, or porcetto sardo (roasted pork). The daily tasting menu is a very good deal.

Get a true taste of regional cuisine at this family-run trattoria in the old town. The menu is not for the squeamish or for vegetarians: horse, donkey, and—one of the stand-outs—roasted suckling pig feature prominently, as do typical Sassarese dishes such as trippa alla parmigiana (tripe with Parmesan), lumaconi in rosso (snails in a rich tomato sauce), and cordula con piselli (sheep's intestines with peas). For dessert, the seadas (honey-dribbled, cheese-filled pastry packets) are a treat. Two set-price taster menus (€25 and €28) are available. Tables can be had in the buzzy vaulted terra-cotta-tiled dining room, or in summer, in the courtyard.

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 alla catalana (with tomato and onions) or with ricotta foam, parsley, basil, and tomato. In winter, when lobster isn't available, sample the ricci (sea urchins). For starters, try bottarga di muggine su insalatina di sedano e pomodori (dried mullet roe on a celery and tomato salad).

There's always a lively crowd at this backstreet trattoria, where diners pack into three rooms to enjoy the same multicourse set menu. If this seems limiting, think again—you'll be presented with a range of fresh, delicious, seasonally appropriate dishes (perhaps prawns, squid, swordfish, or sea bass) in abundant portions. The usual formula is: five cold starters, two pastas, two mains, a dessert, and unlimited drinks—all for one price. Lobster is also usually available for a supplementary charge. Service is brisk and good-humored, and reservations are essential.

The brick walls, dim lighting, and arched ceilings here make you feel as if you've stepped into a wine cellar. Aged photographs of Oristano's Sa Sartiglia jousting festival and specialty dishes from Oristano and Montiferru do a good job capturing local flavor. Favorites include lorighittas (a local pasta), either with venison and mushrooms or tuna, maccarones de busa al ragù di pescatrice e arselle (macaroni with clams), and pane frattau (carasau bread in a sauce of tomatoes and sheep's cheese topped with a poached egg). Alternatively, try the fregola con gamberi (semolina pasta with prawns, mushrooms, and mullet roe from the Cabras lagoon).

Take a tour of contemporary Sardinian gastronomy in this trendsetting place that has become a huge hit with the cagliaritani. You can choose between eating à la carte or the small dishes offered on the tasting menus (€27, €32, and €37, including desserts and nonalcoholic drinks), which might include such bold pairings as ravioli di cernia con fragole e gamberi (fish ravioli with strawberries and prawns), spezzatino di maiale con le cozze (pork stew with mussels), and cappuccino di seppie in crema di patate e bottarga (cuttlefish with creamed potatoes and mullet roe). The weekday "business lunches" (€9, €10, or €12) are an especially good value. Everything is immaculately presented, and dishes can be adapted for vegetarians and others with special dietary requirements.
