​Our Menus
At Ancient Grains, we offer three distinct dining experiences to suit your needs:
À La Carte Menu
Perfect for walk-ins and last-minute bookings, our à la carte menu is available for lunch and dinner. This selection showcases a variety of authentic Sardinian dishes, including handmade ravioli, house-made pasta, marinated slow-cooked meats, and other traditional delights.
Pre-Order Menu
For a more elaborate experience, our pre-order menu features dishes that require longer cooking times, such as our low-temperature baked fish wrapped in parchment, hearty fish stew, and meats marinated for up to 12 hours. As our fish is always fresh and sourced daily, we kindly ask our guests to inform us of their choices in advance to ensure the best dining experience.
Sunday Roast
Join us for our Sunday Roast, where you can savor traditional Sardinian recipes like porchetta cooked with myrtle or lamb infused with local spices and more. Each dish is served with Sardinian-style roasted potatoes, seasonal vegetables and our homemade gravy.
Our Wine Selection
Complement your meal with our carefully curated wine list, featuring a range of Sardinian wines such as Cannonau and Vermentino, along with other rare Italian finds not typically available in local wine bars.
