Welcome to Muraka Restaurant

Muraka, meaning "Coral" in Dhivehi (the native language spoken in the ) is idyllically set over the lagoon and is surrounded, as the name suggests, by an abundance of coral and fish life. Here in our small intimate over water restaurant we are pleased to provide this exquisite à la carte menu seven days a week. In addition, every Tuesday we offer a Maldivian Lobster Menu and Saturdays we indulge you with a tantalizing Wine Dinner (reservations are required).

At Mirihi we source some of the world’s finest produce. Haute is embellished by a well-selected and award-winning range of wines from the Old and New World with a special emphasis on boutique wineries and an exclusive selection of fine Champagne.

Should you have any special gastronomical desires, please feel free to let us know how we can tantalize you further!

Enjoy the Muraka experience!
