From cultural influences to the conceptual dining vision
Would you opt for the mix of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy flavours that are synonymous with Thai cuisine, or perhaps the Japanese culinary tradition, celebrated for its meticulous use of fresh, seasonal ingredients and precise preparation methods that elevate natural flavours? MayaBay Porto Montenegro draws inspiration from both and manages to successfully craft a perfect dining experience, where the flavours of these cuisines come alive and effortlessly showcase the essence of the two traditions.
A Menu created to captivate
The semi-gastronomic approach that blends these intricate flavours, with just a touch of modern flair, is authentic in its own way. A rich assortment of delicacies awaits, carefully curated to offer an unforgettable culinary experience with nearly 180 distinct dishes featured on the menu. From delectable sushi rolls and soft mochi balls to aromatic Thai curries.
MayaBay Porto Montenegro introduces a sophisticated interpretation of Asian dining. To enjoy the full experience, guests can indulge in a wide variety of both redefined classic cocktails and signature ones inspired by the natural elements – fire, water, air, and earth. Not to mention that the beverage menu also offers an exceptional selection of wine, sake, and tea, thoughtfully paired to complement the cuisine.
The master chef’s passion for Asian-inspired cuisine of the highest quality is the drive behind the creation of the restaurant’s delicious dishes. Hailing from Mexico, he brings valuable knowledge and experience from his years of work in the Middle East. His life journey has given him deep appreciation for both Thai and Japanese cultural traditions and culinary techniques. Drawing inspiration from them, he is able to incorporate MayaBay’s menu with these influences, capturing their rich flavours and inventive approaches, while still staying true to the old traditions. The chef’s expertise and creativity are evident from the first bite, which lingers on your palate, leaving a lasting impression.
Should you find yourself unable to decide what to order, the expert staff is always there to make excellent recommendations and nudge you in the right direction.

As it prepares for the upcoming season, it plans to hire a significant number of local chefs eager to acquire the necessary experience and knowledge of Asian cuisine. Through specialised training, these new people will be able to contribute to the distinct flavours that define MayaBay’s own culinary identity.
