Don is the symbol of a new era in Cagliari — an original fusion of Asian cuisines, from Thai to Korean, Chinese to Japanese. The restaurant is led by Ricky, a young entrepreneur born in Sardinia to Chinese parents.
Opened just six months ago to honor his mum’s wishes, Ricky has successfully created a space that bridges Sardinian and Asian cultures.
The restaurant has a fun and friendly atmosphere, and when we asked Ricky what contributed to its success, he said:
“We got to where we are as a team. This experience has changed me deeply. I’m Sardinian but I am also proud to showcase my Asian heritage.”
The menu beautifully reflects Ricky’s message, featuring dishes such as Pad Thai, Bibimbap, and Gyoza. The star of the night was the Fried Beef Gyoza — delicate and light, with an umami explosion of flavor.
We recommend ordering several dishes to share tapas style and experience the full “Don” journey.
If you’re looking for a place to eat in Cagliari on your next holiday, head to Don, meet the team, and savor a taste of Asia in the heart of Sardinia.
