Luigi Pomata

Top choice in Cagliari


There's always a buzz at chef Luigi Pomata's minimalist seafood restaurant, with pared-down decor and chefs skilfully preparing superfresh sushi. For a more casual eating experience, try the Pomata Bistrot, around the corner at Via Porcile 21, where you can dine on dishes such as stuffed squid with broccoli cream in a tranquil, relaxed setting.
