RESTAURANTE Leonardo Sul Mare, perched on the upper floor of the historic Club de Regatas Mazarron, offers one of the most privileged dining spots in Puerto de Mazarron. The sweeping terrace commands uninterrupted views across the marina, the glittering Bahia de Mazarron and the Mediterranean beyond, creating a postcard-perfect backdrop whether at golden-hour lunch or under the stars at dinner. The spacious terrace, cooled by constant sea breezes, has become the heart of the restaurant and the main reason tables are booked solid throughout the summer months.
An Italian-Mediterranean fusion restaurant, with a view
The kitchen delivers confident Italian-Mediterranean cuisine with a strong emphasis on fresh, local seafood and handmade classics. Wood-fired pizzas emerge blistered and fragrant, topped generously with premium ingredients, while the pasta dishes – especially the tagliatelle with clams and the black-ink squid risotto – consistently earn praise for depth of flavour and perfect al dente texture. Daily catches are simply grilled or served in the traditional Murcian caldero, allowing the quality of the fish to shine. Starters such as burrata with sun-ripened tomatoes and charcoal-grilled octopus are beautifully presented and generously portioned. The wine list focuses on regional Murcia and Italian labels at fair prices, with several excellent options by the glass.
Warm, professional service
Service is warm, professional and genuinely attentive, striking the right balance between relaxed coastal style and efficiency, even when the terrace is full. The entire operation feels refreshed and energised under Leonardo’s management, transforming what was once a sleepy club dining into a destination restaurant that regularly fills every seat – a rare achievement after more than fifty years of the club’s history.
