A place where the sun meets the sea, Osteria Marzia brings the cuisine and romance of the Southern Italian coast to the heart of Wan Chai. Through expansive windows, the glorious glow of sunlight breathes life to the luminous aqua blues, yellows and golds inspired by the Mediterranean Sea and shoreline.

Boat building techniques guide the interior architecture, and a contemporary maritime spirit find its expression in warm teak wood, white bamboo panels, navy blue banquettes and coral-blue tiles. Here, the sea reveals itself in tables with shimmering surfaces and lamps that look like fishing lanterns.
