The partner's word

Old Friend Bar & Bistrò in Cagliari opened in 2016, founded by Dario Torabi and Luigi Serra, whose passion for music, conviviality, and travel shapes the venue’s spirit. Its name draws inspiration from a Rancid punk rock song, reflecting a warm, home-like atmosphere intended to make guests feel as if dining at an old friend's house. The interior blends contemporary design with a welcoming vibe, emphasizing comfort and conviviality. The restaurant offers a market-driven, seasonal menu focused on sustainable practices and local Sardinian ingredients, skillfully combined with international culinary techniques. Chef Dario Torabi, a native of Cagliari with a global outlook, leads the kitchen in crafting creative dishes such as tartare di vacca bruna, bottarga with fiore sardo, and risotto featuring caglio, sumac, and pollen. Signature tasting experiences include the structured "Stand By Me" menu and the "Furia Cieca," a multi-course meal served in darkness that highlights sensory perception. Recognized with a Bib Gourmand distinction, Old Friend Bar & Bistrò stands out for its commitment to authenticity, sustainability, and a convivial dining experience that embodies Sardinian hospitality.
