Ristorante da Paolo

Olbia


Stone walls, timber ceilings and coastal paintings give this restaurant a cheery air. Dig into soul food such as zuppa gallurese (a hearty soup made with bread, cheese and lamb broth), sea bass with artichokes, and culurgiones (Sardinian-style ravioli filled with cheese and potato).
