Comments on wine list/beer: An interesting wine list with several good Sardinian wines

Review:
An Italian that majors on Sardinian cooking and have been around for 10 years. The pasta is very good and my favourite is spagetti bortega. They have a lunch time menu that is just over £5 for one course.

Marco, the manager is excellent and you can depend on him to find you a good wine at a resonably price. This is a friendly neighbourhood restaurant situated in the town centre near the Penta Hotel. There are some interesting dishes on the a la carte menu but my advice is to check the specials of the day – on a blackboard near the bar.
