Flavors from Land and Sea
Il Portico’s cuisine is born from the union of simplicity and variety. Our menu ranges from seafood to meat dishes, designed to satisfy different tastes and suit any time of day. From fresh appetizers to seafood pasta, grilled mains to crispy fried specialties — each dish is made to deliver flavor, quality, and satisfaction.
From Sardinian traditions to Italian classics, we carefully select our ingredients and recipes to reflect our vision of good cuisine: thoughtful, balanced, and accessible.
Starters
Perfect for kicking off your meal the right way. You’ll find fresh and flavorful options like mussel soup, octopus with potatoes, carpaccio, and tartare — alongside more indulgent bites like fried pasta or local cured meats and cheeses. Ideal for sharing, enjoying as a light main course, or starting a full tasting experience.
First Courses
Our pasta dishes are one of the highlights of Il Portico’s menu. From classic spaghetti with clams to squid ink tagliolini and traditional Sardinian fregola, every recipe is designed to enhance the flavors of the sea. You’ll also find land-inspired alternatives like filled ravioli and culurgiones, always paired with high-quality sauces.
Main Courses
In the second course section, you’ll find some of the most popular dishes at Il Portico: grilled bluefin tuna, calamari, and organic sea bream from Stintino — also available with slow-cooking methods — are among the most requested choices. We also offer a selection of meats, ranging from beef fillet to sliced steak with artichokes, all the way to our homemade burger.
Pizzeria
The heart of our pizza lies in the dough: fragrant, easy to digest, and always baked in a wood-fired oven. We also offer whole wheat and multigrain (10 cereals) versions — perfect for those who prefer a more rustic or health-conscious option.
Our menu features dozens of combinations: classic Margherita, seafood pizzas, variations with local ingredients, and creative ideas designed by our team. There are no limits to flavor — just one rule: use quality ingredients and treat them with care.
Fried specialities
Frying to perfection isn’t easy — but for us, it’s a matter of principle. Our fried dishes — calamari, shrimp, meatballs — are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, freshly prepared and served hot, never greasy.
Perfect as a starter to share, or as a satisfying main dish when you want something quick and indulgent. A small summer ritual to enjoy with a sea view.
Dessert Corner
A good meal should never end in a rush. In our dessert corner, you’ll find fresh single servings, spoon desserts, homemade cakes, and selected Sardinian specialties.
Each treat is carefully prepared to offer a real moment of sweetness — not just a formality. Whether you choose a rich chocolate classic or something lighter, ending on a sweet note is always the right choice.
Cocktail Bar
At aperitivo time, the atmosphere changes. Classic and contemporary drinks await you – Mojito, Negroni, Gin & Tonic, Spritz – all made with premium spirits and a curated selection of liquors, from craft gins to aged rums. To complete the experience, we offer sparkling wines, craft beers, and a wine list for every taste — all accompanied by a spectacular view of Porto Mannu.
Something for Every Occasion
Il Portico’s menu is designed to adapt to you. Whether you’re here for a relaxed dinner, a quick pizza, a family lunch or a scenic aperitivo, you’ll always find something that suits your taste and your time.
