La Festa Phu Quoc, Curio Collection by Hilton, Where the Sea Carries the Taste of Italy

Positioned along the luminous shoreline of Phu Quoc, Mare at La Festa Phu Quoc, Curio Collection by Hilton emerges as the island’s newest culinary destination, where gastronomy becomes an extension of place and emotion. Framed by uninterrupted views of the Kiss Bridge and the ritual of sunset dissolving into nightly fireworks, Mare invites guests into an Italian dining experience shaped as much by atmosphere as by flavour.

Led by Chef Simone, Mare expresses the soul of coastal Italy through a menu that feels both grounded and evocative. Fresh crab ravioli, spaghetti ai frutti di mare, and a quietly assured classic carbonara unfold with a sense of familiarity, while handcrafted pizzas and perfectly grilled steaks bring warmth and depth to the table. Each dish is anchored in authenticity, built upon handpicked ingredients, peppery olive oils, and freshly baked breads scented with herbs, capturing the rustic, homey spirit of Italian culinary tradition.

Dining here is deliberately sensory. Outdoor seating allows the sea breeze and shifting light to become part of the experience, while curated wine pairing dinners introduce labels from renowned producers such as Banfi and Mas de Daumas Gassac. These moments elevate Mare beyond a restaurant into a dialogue between terroir, craftsmanship and storytelling.

As part of La Festa Phu Quoc, Vietnam’s first Curio Collection by Hilton, Mare sits within a constellation of eight restaurants and bars – including Finca, Seta, Luna Folk, Francesca, The Merchant, iL Salone and Cielo – each contributing to a layered dining journey defined by authenticity and restraint rather than excess.

Recognised as a Highly Recommended Best Italian Restaurant in Vietnam at the Gourmet Vietnam Awards 2025, Mare affirms its place as a defining address where Phu Quoc’s evolving culinary identity meets the timeless romance of Italy.
