Taurus is a dedicated steakhouse on Corso Vittorio Emanuele II in Stampace, one of Cagliari's four historic quarters, a short walk from the old centre. In a city whose restaurant scene leans heavily on seafood and traditional island cooking, Taurus takes a focused, specialist approach: premium cuts, cooked with care, served without unnecessary complication.
The menu revolves around beef, with options ranging from bone-in cuts suited to sharing — such as fiorentina and costata — to ribeye, filet, and skirt steak. Starters include beef tartare, available in several variations, as well as tacos and mixed platters. Sardinian touches appear in the form of pane carasau and local cheeses. The wine list is designed to complement the food.
The dining room has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the team is noted for explaining the menu thoroughly and handling the floor with efficiency.
