Artisans of Sardinia is an independent Italian restaurant at 16 Lacy Road in Putney. Its identity is rooted specifically in Sardinia, combining traditional island recipes and sourced ingredients with a warm dining room designed for leisurely lunches, dinners and private occasions.
Pasta is an important part of the cooking, with Sardinian shapes and fillings giving the menu a character distinct from a general Italian restaurant. Culurgiones stuffed pasta is one regional speciality, while changing pasta dishes may bring together vegetables, seafood, Sardinian sausage, pecorino and the island’s Vermentino wine.
The set lunch moves through carefully composed starters, pasta and main dishes rather than relying only on familiar classics. Seafood such as anchovies, red mullet and mackerel can sit beside burrata, mushrooms, game and seasonal vegetables, with carasau flatbread and fresh focaccia supporting the meal.
A dedicated wine cellar and optional wine pairings place Sardinian and Italian bottles alongside the food. Guests with allergies or dietary requirements should speak with the restaurant when reserving because the seasonal menu may include shellfish, fish, gluten, dairy, nuts and other allergens.
