We took our pizzas to the benches by the port which was close by. We wish we sat down and stayed since the outside area was so pretty next to the church in town. It seemed like everyone there was really enjoying themselves.

The outside seating area is beautiful next to a little church. Staff were friendly and delivered small drinks (we don't remember what they were but they were delicious) at the end of our meal. Food was amazing; I opted for the seafood risotto which had a generous amount of seafood.

Our mains were the €18 humid lamb with potatoes, very tasty and flavorous. And the €7 bis pot of pie of Oschiri was not surprising, wouldn't reccomend, they have much more interesting options.

It's a relatively small place and is easily fully booked so we we're happy to get a table. The menu features mostly traditional food from Sardegna and the very friendly staff was more than willing to tell us a bit about the dish and it's history. Everything was perfectly executed and presented. The bottle of Canonau (traditional Sardinian red wine) that was recommended to us turned out to be the perfect choice. After our dinner we we're offered a tasty local digestive on the house. We're looking forward to returning to Vechia Ilva!

Prices are very reasonable as compared to other restaurants around: 10 euros for a pasta with clams (Vongole), 12 euros for two hunks of sea bream, and 10 euros for calamari and fries. Food was just alright tasting but the portions were extremely generous. Clams in the vongole were small and tough but they gave a lot of them. The calamari was delicious! Try the coconut semifreddo, and the yoghurt with fresh fruit. Absolutely delicious desserts to end your day! The hostess (maybe owner) was just the nicest person. She was super sweet to us and made the dining experience a pleasant one! She was so nice we came back twice.

Truly an exceptional dinner!…read more ... but be sure to have a reservation because while we arrived at 1930 for ours, there was a line out the door waiting for tables when we left around 2100. Great wine, great food .. again, a dining game experience slightly tainted by extremely inattentive service, but we've come to the conclusion that this is either a Sardinian thing, or a "we don't like you if you're not local," thing. For example, we were sent to the register to pay .. without the check .. and the fellow behind the register just looked at us like we were idiots when we tried to explain why we were standing in front of him .. trying to pay our bill. ‍ I don't remember it being like this when I lived here in the mid 90s, but I suppose things change.

If you are in Palau this is a must try for dinner! Trust me,…read moreYou won't be disappointed! Everything was amazing and the service was great. Prices were very reasonable, would suggest a reservation. We had the mussels and clams which were tender bright. My favorite was the octopus in chili sauce! Pizza was thin and light and full of flavor. Don't forget to leave room for dessert as they have a lot of delish options!!
