Marcello's Restaurant sits right in the heart of Protaras, a modern, welcoming Italian eatery on the busy main strip and part of the Sunrise Hotels group. Open every evening from 5pm, it draws couples, families and groups with classic Italian cooking prepared from fresh ingredients. The menu spans wood-fired pizzas, freshly made pasta such as carbonara and penne arrabiata, indulgent risottos like pumpkin and goat cheese, and mains including chicken with pancetta and mozzarella.

Vegetarian and vegan diners are well looked after, with dishes such as sweet potato salad and penne arrabiata praised by guests. A carefully curated Italian wine list is a highlight, with knowledgeable staff happy to guide pairings, and desserts like tiramisu round off the meal.
