The restaurant

Many years to keep it simple

Mar de Gloria is a small restaurant in the centre of Antequera. Eleven tables, honest traditional Andalusian cooking and owners present every day in the dining room and kitchen.

What is Mar de Gloria

A small restaurant, made to care for the details

Mar de Gloria was not born to be grand. It was born to be manageable, approachable and coherent.

We work with eleven tables because that size allows us to be present, know the rhythm of each service and look after the experience of every customer.

The cuisine is traditional Andalusian, recognisable and honest. Produce, technique and flavour without unnecessary artifice.

Why does it exist

After more than forty years in the hospitality industry, we decided to get back to basics

After more than four decades in hospitality and more than twenty projects, we understood that we wanted to return to a restaurant where we could cook and personally look after our customers.

Mar de Gloria was born from that decision: to do fewer things, but do them better. To return to a small dining room, a kitchen with purpose, and a way of welcoming that does not depend on impersonal structures.

Eleven tables

A size chosen to maintain closeness, pace and genuine attention in every service.

Honest cooking

Recognisable dishes, seasonal produce and technique in the service of flavour.

Direct care

Who is behind it

Beatriz in the lounge. Domingo in the kitchen.

Beatriz welcomes the customers and looks after the dining room. Domingo cooks and leads the gastronomic offering.

Between us, we sustain Mar de Gloria as we understand this trade: with presence, responsibility and closeness.

After many years in hospitality, we have chosen a format where we can still look the customer in the eye and know what is happening at every table.

After more than forty years in the hospitality industry, we decided to create the restaurant in which we would like to sit as customers.
