Experience a Unique Blend of Japanese and Mediterranean Cuisine at the Maldives’ Largest Overwater Dining Complex with an impressive selection of 8 dining venues

The Maldives has always been synonymous with luxury and unparalleled beauty, and now, One&Only Reethi Rah adds another jewel to its crown with the opening of Tapasake. This newly rebuilt restaurant promises to redefine dining experiences with its unique blend of Japanese cuisine and Mediterranean influences, set against the backdrop of the Maldives’ largest overwater dining complex.

A Culinary Journey Like No Other

Tapasake is not just a restaurant; it is an experience. Designed by the renowned Jean-Michel Gathy from Denniston International, the 3665m² venue is a marvel suspended over the Indian Ocean. The interiors are a feast for the eyes, with every detail meticulously crafted to create an atmosphere of exploration and wonder. From the soaring see-through wine cellar to the glass-bottomed floor panels in the sunken lounge, every corner of Tapasake invites guests to discover something new.

A Symphony of Flavours

The menu at Tapasake is a celebration of the art of sharing, combining the best of Japanese and Mediterranean cuisines. Guests can indulge in a variety of dishes, from tender Wagyu beef sizzling on the teppanyaki grill to the freshest uni, otoro, and tai sourced from Japan’s finest culinary provinces. Mediterranean-inspired seafood, gyoza, Tokyo-style ramen, and traditional tapas offer a diverse and exciting culinary adventure.

An Atmosphere to Savour

The design of Tapasake is a harmonious blend of light and dark, soft tones and striking textures. Monochrome elements reflect Japanese design sensibilities, while vibrant Mediterranean accents add splashes of colour. The use of wood, granite, and stone grounds the space, creating a connection to the earth, while water features and the gentle sea breeze enhance the overall ambience.

Golden Hour and Beyond

As the sun sets, the Grand Terrace becomes the perfect spot to toast another day in paradise. The inventive cocktail menu, inspired by the bold colours of the Maldivian sunset, features fragrant violet liqueur, passionfruit, and pineapple, setting a tropical mood. In the evening, Tapasake transforms into a vibrant hub with DJs and live music, offering a lively atmosphere for guests to enjoy.

Exclusive Experiences

Tapasake offers more than just dining. Guests can participate in bespoke events, mixology classes, tea ceremonies, and sake-tasting sessions. The private dining rooms, accommodating up to 12 guests, provide an intimate setting for special celebrations, all while surrounded by the natural beauty of the Maldives.

A Signature One&Only Experience

Tapasake, named after the Spanish “tapas” and Japanese “sake,” embodies the essence of One&Only’s commitment to creating unforgettable experiences. Whether you are savouring a limited-edition sake produced in collaboration with Yumegokoro Sake Brewery or enjoying a signature whiskey cocktail in the Sombra Lounge, every moment at Tapasake is designed to delight the senses.
