Where Fire Meets Fine Dining.
La Gardiana is the restaurant inside Veridia, the Nature Resort in Chia, Sardinia. Open to everyone — not just resort guests. Josper-fired cuisine, Sardinian ingredients.
La Gardiana isn't just any restaurant in Chia.
It’s a culinary experience centered around the fire.
Our oven Josper cooks everything: from appetizers to desserts, creating dishes that are intense, distinctive, simple in form yet elegant in spirit.
We select only ingredients that reflect our values: local ingredients where the region shines, and national ingredients when the flavor calls for it.
Our cuisine doesn't seek approval; it seeks truth.
Because we don't want to please everyone.
But we want you to remember.
For those looking for an authentic experience
Unlike all the other restaurants in Chia, La Gardiana doesn’t follow tradition—it sets it ablaze.
With the power of the grill, the freedom of thought, and a cuisine that doesn’t aim to please everyone, but leaves a lasting impression.
Our Philosophy
-
Fire as method, not theatre
La Gardiana takes its roots in the embers, but it doesn’t stop at tradition. It elevates the primal act of cooking over fire into a refined, contemporary dining experience, thanks to the skillful use of the Josper.
-
Territory and Vision
We select the finest products from our region and enhance them with choices that reflect our vision. Always with respect. Always with taste.
-
A kitchen with character
Every dish has its own distinct personality. It doesn’t seek approval, but rather to make an impact. It is the cuisine of a chef who puts his heart and soul into every dish: sincere, bold, and instantly recognizable.
