Éramos um grupo de doze e o prato de uma das pessoas não estava disponível, depôs de 1 hora quando perguntamos pediram desculpas que não havia mais e pediram que escolhêssemos outro, o outro prato: Risoto de gorgonzola com carne, a carne veio fria/crua e o Risoto sem gosto. Tivemos que devolver. Uma bagunça total e nem estavam cheios porque era uma segunda feira. Deveríamos haver saído sem pagar. Pagamos e fomos embora, todo o processo demorou mais de 3 horas. Um desperdiço de tempo e dinheiro. Totalmente decepcionada. Estou admirada que tenham 4.6 entre 12 mil avaliações.... Devem estar pagando por avaliações! Impossível

Vacationing in Ihla Bela for New Years and my Brazilian friends really wanted to try this place…read moreout. I was excited for the Brazilian-Thai fusion, and Marakuthai did not disappoint!! Towards the north end of the island, this restaurant is hidden from the outside by a white wooden fence and is only open for certain hours for lunch then dinner. We arrived right at 8 for dinner (opening time) and seated right away! The location is great as it's right on the sand with a view of the water and boats docked near by. Dim lighting and lit candles really set the tone here! We decided to start with a crispy, and thin sliced fish covered with an oriental sauce I wasn't familiar with. Perfect starter! For the main dishes, we ordered Bali, Surim, Thai Spaghetti, and Camarón fora de Morange. My dish was Surim and I have to say it was the crowd favorite. The dish consisted of shrimp, calamari, and octopus mixed in what seemed to be a very thin risotto. The sauce consisted of tomatoes, basil, coconut milk and more. I was amazed at how tasteful my dish was. Still dreaming about it... Highly recommended to all visiting the island!

There are about 5-7 different dishes of the day that you can choose from. I had fish with rice (and fries of course, we are in Brazil) and spinach and it was simple but tasty. I tried my friend's meals and they were also all good. Prices are low, food is tasty, it looks a bit like a canteen but service is nice and the atmosphere too. Good choice!
