Restaurant and Bar

Beautifully constructed from entirely local hardwoods, Aloita’s gorgeous open air restaurant is a wonderful place to enjoy a meal and reflect on the day’s activities.  And seeing as several of the owners of Aloita are Italian, it should come as no surprise that we take a great level of pride and care in the preparation of the meals for our guests.  Three delicious buffet style meals are served daily which are designed not just to delight your taste buds, but also replenish and refuel your body.  We specialize in a variety of seafood dishes using fresh produce caught in local waters, but we certainly don’t limit ourselves to fish.  You can expect anything from pasta dishes to pizza to steaks to chicken – you name it!  And all meals are complemented well with a variety of vegetable, rice, fruit dishes, etc. – all high quality, high energy, and healthy.

One of the true highlights of the resort, Aloita’s “A Bar” has to be seen to be believed.   Sitting right on the beach with a beautiful front deck that projects literally over the water at high tide, the A Bar is without a doubt the coolest place to have a drink, watch a DVD, or do absolutely nothing in the Mentawais.   Like our restaurant, the A Bar is constructed entirely from local woods, and was built in an open air rotunda fashion.  This gives our guests complete views of the ocean, resort, and all its surroundings during the day, and allows it to take full advantage of the sea breezes at night.

The circular design is also great for the social aspect of the bar.  The A Bar is quickly becoming known as THE place to catch a footy game on our large flat screen TV if you’re in the area, and the rounded set up makes it easier to view all your mates and heckle them from across the room.  The A Bar also comes complete with big couches and chill out areas, cool tunes, a separate bar snack menu, and the full gamut of beers and mixed drinks.  We’ve also recently added a ping pong table if you actually want to get up and actually do something.
 
But again, you’re in paradise, and there’s nothing better to do after a huge meal at our restaurant than sit in front of the flat screen at the A Bar, and do nothing but enjoy the “food coma” by the water’s edge…
