You'll see a charcuterie board on steroids when you enter the premises which is a part of the meal and includes an unlimited buffet of cured pork, various cheeses, and wine before your main meal. Food: 3 different pasta dishes to follow once you're done stuffing yourself w the charcuterie buffet, and of course the porcedu (piglet) to finish. The pasta dishes were so so, considering they were very basic. Dessert was a piece of fruit and a local dessert called seiadas. Tips: 1. Get there right when they open at 7:30. Lots of dedicated parking but it did get full if you had a later reservation time. Also, if you're there at 7:30 the buffet area will be crowded and you will have to wait in line. 2. Come very hungry, I was freaking stuffed and had to limit the pasta intake to eat the porcedu at the end. 3. Don't wear tight dresses or pants 4. If you book in advance you can get the terrace area.

Located just steps from the sea with waterfront breezes this place exudes charm and understated elegance. While the menu seems familiar with other spots the little flourishes elevate the experience. We started with a divine connolo-like a canolli but a savory crust filled with a light and creamy goat cheese served with amazingly flavorful tiny tomatoes-simple but divine. Their curlighones, another classic, were served grilled with a minty pesto but the absolute pinnacle was the fish. We were two couples and we each got the sea bass (for 2) one Mediterranean style (oven roasted with oil, herbs, tomatoes and potatoes) and the other baked in a salt crust. Each was beautifully served table side with the fish deboned and plated. Melt in your mouth good! The ample wine list features dozens of local options all at great prices. A must go.

Service by the waitress couldn't have been nicer and more friendly, as we came towards the end of the lunch period. We opted for the set lunch menu. An assortment of Sardinian cheeses, cured meats, olives, artichokes, and pane carasau was beautiful and delicious. The pasta sampler was terrific, with one of the best zuppa Gallurese I'd had yet in Sardinia. Including water and coffee for only 20E a person. The grounds and hotel area looked gorgeous, worth coming back to stay.

If you're looking for a restaurant with fabulous views where you can also dine outside, this is a…read moregreat spot. We got a ​sprawling view of the water from upstairs, which made for ​an ​enjoyable dining experience on a clear 75-degree​ evening. My husband had the pasta with sausage and pistachio pesto and just loved it. In fact, he said it was probably the best pesto he had ever had. I guess than implies that his dish dwarfed my homemade pesto which he used to think was the best. In all fairness, the version at Skipper's was more of a Sicilian style pesto with pistachios, whereas the pesto I make at home for us is a Genovese style pesto. So, I'll let him off the hook this time since the comparison would not be comparing apples to apples. I had the spaghetti​ and lobster entree, which was good, but wasn't quite what I had imagined. I envisioned that the lobster would be intact, but in fact, the lobster meat was diced into chunks. I also wanted ​a lesser sauce-based​ pasta. However, I must confess that my expectations​ weren't met largely due to the​ misinterpretation of my conversation with the waiter. Although Sardinia is a part of Italy, Sardu is also spoken, and it's different than standard Italian. They also make a nice complimentary flatbread, which is included in the standard coperto (cover charge). The flatbread​ alone would easily have been $15.00 in a nice San Francisco restaurant. It was really good​ and easily could've served four. The cover charges in Italy make so much more sense to me than being "coerced​" into leaving ​a tip upwards of 26% in San Francisco to cover the "expected minimum standard tip" of 20% plus the additional SF Healthy​ Tax charges. Most importantly, I can say, without a doubt, that the service we received at every single restaurant throughout​ Italy would put many San Francisco restaurants to shame. We received good to superior service in Italy, without the outrageous so-called "tips" that are expected/mandated in San Francisco. Skipper is located in a beautiful area with several other restaurants to choose from. Definitely a good choice for pleasurable​ outdoor dining.
