Welcome to the Loquita Restaurant!
Here you can enjoy fresh fish by the sea, seasoned by the imagination of our chef Vito.
In an old house once frequented by local fishermen, the Loquita Restaurant in Santa Maria di Leuca offers special menu with fresh fish delivered daily by our trusted fishermen and selected by our chef.
Terrace overlooking the sea
Loquita Restaurant is located by the sea under the bridge at the beginning of the Leuca promenade, near the old Tower.

Testimonials
What our clients are saying

Good quality and good value
“Recommended by our B&B. Very tasty variety of seafood pastas and some nice local wines. Great sea view location under the arches.”

Delightful find under the bridge
“Absolutely delightful find in SM Leuca, Fantasie of the Sea I think was the name of the dish, 10 sharing plates of various seafood served with bread. Lots of flavour and the best we have had in Puglia so far. Grazie.”
