Muraya, a culinary haven located in the heart of Southend, Charlotte founded by a charming couple with a deep love, for food, cocktails and hospitality. Our journey began with a heartfelt inspiration drawn from the vibrant city of Cartagena. Every dish we create is a tribute to its rich culture, mesmerizing colors, and captivating history.
At our restaurant, we pour our passion for Colombian cuisine into every plate we serve. With each bite, you'll taste the authentic flavors of Cartagena, lovingly prepared using traditional recipes and ingredients handed down through generations. Our mission is to transport you to the streets of this enchanting city, where the aroma of freshly cooked arepas and the rhythm of salsa music fill the air.
Just like Cartagena, our restaurant is a fusion of warmth and zest, creating an inviting atmosphere for you to savor unforgettable moments.

    Its our first time and the overall experience was good. The staff was very nice and hardworking. We enjoyed our sushi and the Tuna Tartar. The chicken appetizer is not my favorite as I prefer hot sauce over my fried chicken rather than a sweet sauce. The drinks were pretty good too. They had live music which was actually amazing but it was too loud that we couldn’t hear what the waiter was talking. So my husband and I were mostly talking very loud to hear each other. I would preferred if they lowered the sound and keep it more enjoyable. Oh but the couple doing salsa was just beautiful….

    First let me share that were a party of six. We had a disappointing experience that we feel compelled to share. From the moment we walked in, the customer service was subpar. Despite having a reservation, we were left waiting for 30 minutes before being seated, and the supervisor/manager response was dismissive and condescending. Rather than addressing the issue professionally or offering a solution he made us feel like our feedback didn’t matter. His tone was patronizing. The server who eventually took our order was pleasant and professional, but we had to ask specific questions about the menu. The food was underwhelming,some members from our party ordered the ravioli, which was bland and lacked seasoning. the dish just didn’t have the depth of flavor they were hoping for. It felt like it needed more salt, pepper, or herbs to elevate the taste. Overall, our experience was far from what we had hoped for. We left feeling frustrated, and we won’t be returning anytime soon. Poor service and lackluster food are a bad combination, and I sincerely hope you make the necessary improvements in both areas.

    the food was delicious and attractively displayed. We were hoping to hear the music but they started late so we missed them.

    The food was great, the space was smaller than expected and set up made it look over crowded. The overall experience was positive. Great music and decent service.
