PORTO CERVO – July 6, 2026 – The gastronomic landscape of the Costa Smeralda welcomes a prestigious new chapter.
Paper Moon, an icon of Milanese hospitality around the world, announces the opening of its new destination in Porto Cervo. This marks a new Italian opening for the brand, which – after the historic success of its Milanese headquarters and its international expansion across major cities and elite destinations, from London to Hong Kong, from Istanbul to the Algarve – has chosen the heart of Gallura for its newest challenge.
The charm of Milan meets local identity.
The arrival of Paper Moon in Porto Cervo represents a refined fusion of the effortless Milanese lifestyle, the unique architectural style of the Costa Smeralda, and the wild nature of Sardinia. The project integrates into its surroundings through a respectful and sophisticated approach: the understated elegance of the brand engages with pink granite, the scent of myrtle and the island’s golden light, creating an atmosphere capable of reflecting the territory’s most authentic essence without renouncing the urban and international character that made the brand famous.
An iconic signature in the Piazzetta.
Located in Porto Cervo’s famous Piazzetta, nestled in the heart of the Cervo Hotel—one of the Costa Smeralda’s most iconic destinations and a landmark of international luxury hospitality—the restaurant presents itself as a new “place to stay” for a global audience seeking uniqueness and exclusivity.
Despite the international resonance of the brand, Paper Moon preserves the relaxed atmosphere and attention to detail that define each of its locations, presenting itself to guests as a refined setting where well-being and hospitality are at the heart of the experience.
The purity of taste: a cuisine beyond clichés.
The gastronomic proposal of Paper Moon Porto Cervo is a tribute to Italian tradition reinterpreted through a contemporary lens. The menu celebrates the purity of ingredients through a continuous dialogue between Milanese roots and Italian excellence. The quality is uncompromising, as are the service and the wine selection curated for the restaurant’s cellar. Guests with refined, curious and demanding palates will find their ideal destination here.
The Milanese brand always remains recognisable. Paper Moon adapts to every destination without ever losing its essence or compromising its standards. It is refined Milan arriving in the world’s most beloved destinations with hospitality that lives up to every expectation.
An authentic cuisine, far from clichés, where the simplicity of each preparation enhances the exceptional quality of the ingredients.
With this new opening, Paper Moon confirms its commitment to excellence, transforming every lunch and dinner into memorable moments to be shared along one of the Mediterranean’s most enchanting coastlines.
