Top choice in Bosa
For some of Bosa's best seafood – and a Mediterranean view to boot – make a beeline for this high-end local favourite in Bosa Marina. Fresh fish is exquisitely presented in dishes that range from a jazzed-up frittura mista (fried shrimp and calamari in a feather-light tempura-like batter) to fresh tuna tataki with sesame seeds, all accompanied by top local wines.
The atmosphere may feel a tad formal for some, but the food is as good as you'll find anywhere on this stretch of coast.
