La Terrazza sul Mare and Il Borgo are the exclusive à la carte restaurants of the Marenea Suite Hotel. Here you will breathe in chef Mirko Monteduro’s spirit, with a set of dishes that are a tribute to an area, the Salento region, rich in aromas, scents and flavours that come both from land and sea.
The aromatic herbs: mint, thyme, marjoram, basil that release all their aroma and fragrance when combined with fish, vegetables, pulses and even desserts.
Dairy products: cacioricotta, stracciatella, ricotta forte, caciocavallo, shining examples of the extraordinary wisdom of a community in perfect harmony with their territory.
Fish: refined ingredient and core element, excellent to unleash one’s creativity or draw on the culinary tradition of the Mediterranean.
Locally sourced seasonal products accompanied by a wide selection of wines.
Our restaurant La Terrazza sul Mare offers an incredible view of the Adriatic Sea. From there your gaze will embrace the horizon, a horizon that tells stories of sea and neighbouring lands, such as Greece and Albania. Il Borgo, located in the pajara area among olive trees, makes al fresco dining a delight. Half board and/or full board (drinks not included) are available on site, upon request, only for stays of a minimum of 3 nights. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
