Affordable Restaurants

La Botteghina
Dining at this restaurant can feel like gatecrashing a family party. It's an intimate, informal place, with cheek-by-jowl marble tables and abstract art lending a modern touch to the stone-and-vault backdrop. The chef takes pride in sourcing locally. The pizza is terrific, as are Sardinian favourites like fregola (semolina pasta) with seafood.

Palau Reial
On the ground floor of a medieval palace, this restaurant serves a selection of meat and fresh seafood cooked on an open fire. If there's still room for dessert try some seadas - fritters topped with cheese and lemon peel topped with Sardinian honey.

Good Quality Restaurants

Mabrouk
Down a cobbled lane near the marina, Mabrouk is highly praised for its €40 fish feast of a four-course set menu. Vaulting and exposed brick set a rustic scene for antipasti, shellfish pasta, whatever fish is fresh that day, dessert and free-flowing wine.

Fine Dining Restaurants

Andreni
Alghero's first Michelin-star restaurant provides an unforgettable culinary experience. The stone walls and large round tables give it a traditional Sardinian home feel. Waiters attend to your every need serving cheese plates and fine wines stored in large glass cabinets.
