Exterior-03-500x333

Contemporary Italian and Mediterranean restaurant, Gattopardo, located in the heart of Tanjong Pagar, has the tagline ‘Ristorante di Mare’, which simply translates to “Seafood Restaurant” in English. The soul of the restaurant is representative of the roots of Executive Chef and Managing Director Lino Sauro’s culinary style which is heavily influenced by South Italian seafood. A famous Celebrity Chef both in Singapore and Italy, Chef Lino still proudly considers himself a ‘traditional village boy’, as he is a son of a traditional farming family, from a tiny mountain village of South Italy.  Chef Lino’s strong ties to his roots can be felt in his creations as they are made with the finest, freshest and best seasonal ingredients from Italy.

The restaurant features a two-story space to accommodate a total of 80 diners. One of its main attraction is the seafood counter on the first floor, boasting a diverse range of sustainable seafood offerings directly sourced from FRIEND OF THE SEA Sustainable Seafood-Certified fisheries from around the world, and presented with both a South-Italian and Mediterranean flair. The other focal point of the restaurant is a beautiful Italian-inspired spiral staircase which diners use to gain access to the upper level. For those seeking some privacy, two private rooms are available for parties of 5 and 20 respectively.

Food critics and fans alike rave about Chef Lino’s deliciously innovative and heritage-inspired signature dishes such as Risone Con Polipo Brasato e Midollo di Bue, a Risone Pasta with Braised Octopus and Bone Marrow; the Zuppa di Pesce “Gattopardo”, a Gattopardo’s Signature seafood stew in a Terracotta pot; and the Branzino al Sale, a salted baked Mediterranean Sea Bass.
