Pino's al Mare

Pino's al Mare sits on Surf Road in Cronulla, the popular beachside hub of Sydney's Sutherland Shire, near the beach. An Italian restaurant — its name meaning 'by the sea' — it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, authentic Italian cooking, the kind of warm, welcoming spot that brings genuine Italian flavours to a lovely beachside location.

The appeal is that combination of quality Italian food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, welcoming setting near the Cronulla beach, ideal for a family dinner, a special meal or a relaxed night out by the sea. Classic Italian dining done well, in a lovely beachside spot, has a timeless appeal, and Pino's al Mare has clearly won over the locals.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 440 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up on weekends and over summer, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or visiting Cronulla in peak season.
