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.

Owner of Orosoko here. Had a large party birthday dinner last night and everyone enjoyed themselves. Great food (the empanadas were stellar!) and the servers and hostesses did an excellent job on a very busy night. The live music was a great touch. Glad we’re neighbors!

They need to get more organized! Great place, live music and god drinks . But our wait was terrible. We had to wait 30 min for our reservations because they were behind schedule . I understand, but not our fault. The food was delicious and the drinks were stiff and fair. Music was great but staff had got to have some sense of urgency.

This was our first time visiting Muraya. We loved the feel of the restaurant however it was very loud so it was hard to talk to each other. The food was amazing. Our server was really nice but it was evident she had too many tables as she would disappear for long periods of time. We sat for about 20-25 minutes waiting for our drinks. We are debating if we will return or not. We see what a great place Muraya is…we just are questioning the loudness and the service.
