Trattoria Sardoc - Duino-aurisina

Have to confess that I love Sardoc/Precenico, so maybe I am a little biased. But for me best steak house ever, excellent assaggini (different kind o pasta with meat sauce or spinach or zucchini) and the best Gibanica (typical dessert coming from Balkan tradition).

We came here following a friend 's recommendation. We live in the area, but we had told him that we usually drive to Rimini (La Tiresia), if we really want to have the perfect meat . He said: Try Sardoc and then you decide if you still need to drive to Rimini. Ok. We arrived for dinner with no reservation and had to find out that they were preparing for a reception with more than 100 people. No reservation, 100 people ... I was almost already on my way back to the car, but the friendly waitress asked us: ' Do you mind if you may have to wait a little longer for your dishes than usual? Of course, we didn 't mind. It turned out that they treated us like Queens/Kings, although they had to handle the function in parallel. At the end of the evening, we almost felt like family members. Now about the food: We had local soup, pasta and salad. All fresh, delicious and generous. Then the meat. ... The best Fiorentrina I have ever had in my life! Period. Accompanied by a wonderful house red, and all at absolutely reasonable prices. We had the pleasure/honor to see the service team pleasing the 100+ guests almost in front of us. No one was ever left alone or not being served on time. We, as guests with no reservation, were never left out of the service chain. The owner, Mr. Sardoc, and his wife, even personally checked if we had been happy with the dishes, especially the meat. We do not like stiff Michelin Star atmosphere. We love top quality down to earth food. Therefore, we are very happy we (or better our friend Luigi Candida of Portopiccolo) found this restaurant: We will have to drive to Rimini less, and we will come back here very soon. It is a Carso style restaurant, a little bit in the mountains. But if you like this kind of appearance, you can 't be wrong. I seldom use the word amazing . Here, from the bottom of my heart, I say: Amazing!

Could not get a worse weather in my recent vacation in the area, so I was just in the right mood when I stepped in Sardoc and I found that in their menu there was a minestrone made fresh from their vegetable garden picks. It deserves the mention (I doubled next day). Also the cappetto del prete in tecia was very good.

Non posso dire di aver mangiato male. buoni piatti cucinati bene, bei camerieri, ma purtroppo il coordinamento tra la cucina e la camera è un po 'riscaldato. Gli antipasti sono arrivati un minuto alla stessa tabella, contorni dopo aver terminato il secondo. buono ma si può fare meglio

Sono tornato a questi ristoranti dopo diversi anni e devo dire che continuo a raccomandarlo. ambiente sia all'interno che all'esterno molto bello, ospite molto gentile e disponibile, il cibo davvero nulla da dire: tutto grande e ben curato. complimenti!
