Verde Acqua

Tucked into the stunning northeastern Sardinian coastline near Porto Cervo, Verde Acqua serves up authentic Sardinian cuisine in a setting where the turquoise water practically frames your meal. Expect the kind of fixed-menu spread — think pane carasau, local cheeses, cured meats, and fresh seafood — that makes you understand why this island's food culture runs so deep. It's the sort of place where the view and the food compete equally for your attention, and neither loses.
