Dining at Milaidhoo

Restaurants & Bars

At Milaidhoo we’re serious about food, focusing on authentic, light food with clean flavours. Our three restaurants and two bars are designed to appeal to your senses, offering outstanding dining in wonderfully informal settings. No shoes required. Ever. Bon appetit!

Ba’theli Lounge & Restaurant

Guests dine on the ‘deck’ of the restaurant where, underneath starry night skies, the team of chefs deliver an island influenced menu of locally inspired and sourced dishes. There’s also indoor seating in air-conditioned comfort where you can watch the sea-life below through glass floors. Expect to find seafood and traditional local flavours intelligently reinterpreted for the 21st century.

The Shoreline Grill

This beachfront grill is where you’ll find superb meats and freshly caught local fish and seafood, simply cooked and beautifully presented. You can dine barefoot in a private beach pavilion, or inside the grill with a view of the show kitchens. We think several visits to Shoreline Grill will be required, including at least one evening at our chef’s “teppanyaki” table where our chef will ask what you feel like eating and cook accordingly. This is where you’ll find barefoot informality at its best. Easy, simple, no fuss.

Shoreline Grill Chef’s Table

If you’ve ever wanted your own private chef to cook for you, here’s your chance. At our chef’s table, our team of chefs are ready to cook up a perfect dinner, just the way you want it, right before your eyes at our teppanyaki-style table. For inspiration, we offer a choice of set menus, as well as an a la carte menu to pick and choose from.

Shoreline Grill Wine Room

It’s time to pop a cork or two. Whether you choose to stop off here before dinner, or leave this as a post-postprandial treat or perhaps an afternoon eye-opener is up to you. Chill out in the superb cool temperatures of our Wine Room with a flight of wines and canapes, or ask our sommelier to organise a specialist wine tasting for you. Open for private bookings.

Azure

Offering a laid-back, toes-in-the-sand experience, Azure is the place to go for a delightful lunchtime escape in a picturesque beach shack setting. Here you’ll enjoy an authentic slice of Maldivian life and an opportunity to reconnect with nature. Nestled amid lush palm-like screw pines, Azure embodies the essence of barefoot informality.

Ocean Restaurant

Here’s the tropical breakfast guests dream of: sitting on the deck by the ocean as our team delivers wave after wave of treats to the table. Or helping yourself to a huge variety of elegantly presented culinary delights, hand-picked from all over the world, locally sourced where possible.

Compass Pool Bar

Here’s the place to chill out and fall in love with our infinity pool that overlooks the ocean. When hunger calls, we’re right here with a tempting drinks list of the freshest of fresh juices, infused waters, cocktails and light meals, such as gourmet pizzas from our wood-fired oven; bento boxes; fresh salads; sandwiches etc. The fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down; find yourself a sun lounger and watch the area transform into a laid-back chillout lounge.

Destination Dining

You can enjoy dining together at another level with our Destination Dining Experience. Excellent food prepared to guests’ wishes and preferences can be served anywhere on the island: at the beach, on the villa’s or residence’s deck or exclusively on our nearby sandbank. Especially arranged meals like sunrise breakfast, picnic lunch or dinner under the stars are available on request.

Gourmet Plan

At Milaidhoo we offer meaningful and memorable experiences. As part of that, The Milaidhoo Gourmet Plan is a dine-around meal plan offering outstanding dining & drinks throughout the day at the restaurants and bars. Enjoy your daily breakfast at leisure and follow it with an indulgent set menu lunch at Ocean restaurant. You can also enjoy an a la carte light meal selection at Compass Pool Bar.
