Trattoria Gallurese

Top choice in Northeastern Sardinia


This simple homespun trattoria serves a warm welcome and genuine Gallurese soul food. Go traditional with cinghiale (wild boar) slow-cooked in Cannonau red wine or pecora alla gallurese (Gallurese-style lamb). Delicious tiramisu with a shot of homemade mirto liqueur is the perfect coda to a meal.
