Manary Gastronomia & Arte


The Manary Praia Hotel's poolside restaurant serves creative salads and superb seafood and is one of Natal's very best restaurants. During the day it's a fairly laid-back affair but in the evening they turn up the romance a couple of notches. It has one of the best vegetarian menus in town and is famed for its rich desserts and cocktails.
