The Bonefish Grill at Azure Del Mar

On a peninsula where most kitchens run on grilled snapper and rice and beans, the restaurant at Azure Del Mar hands you a grill of your own. The Bonefish Grill is the restaurant and bar of Azure Del Mar, a beachfront boutique resort in Maya Beach, and its signature is a tabletop Korean BBQ that the resort describes as the only one of its kind in Belize. That single line is the reason to walk in off the sand.

What the Bonefish Grill Actually Is

It sits on the beach in Maya Beach, the quieter stretch at the northern end of the Placencia Peninsula in the Stann Creek District. The kitchen works in Asian-influenced and Caribbean fusion, which on the peninsula is its own kind of statement: alongside the fusion plates you will also find sandwiches and pizza, so a table of travelers with different appetites can all order and be happy.

The property has history under an older name. Before rebranding under new management around 2021, it operated as the Singing Sands Inn. The Bonefish Grill is the version of that beachfront kitchen you meet today.

The Dishes Worth Ordering

Reviewers consistently point to the same handful of plates, and they are a good map for a first visit:

• The tabletop Korean BBQ, cooked at your own table, the dish the resort stakes its name on.
• Bibimbap, the Korean rice bowl (you may see it written as Bi Bim Bop on the menu).
• Orange Chicken, a regular standout in traveler reports.
• The Korean Beef Sandwich, the crossover plate that lands the fusion idea squarely between the Asian and the sandwich sides of the menu.

If you are only stopping once, the Korean BBQ is the plate that separates this table from the next palapa down the beach.

The Setting

This is a resort restaurant and bar, beachfront, at the calm north end of the peninsula rather than in the busier village to the south. That location shapes who it suits: it is an easy anchor for a slow Maya Beach dinner, and the grill-at-your-table format makes it a place to sit for a while rather than eat and move on.

Who It's For

Come here if you have been eating your way down the peninsula and want a night that tastes like somewhere else entirely. The fusion range means a group can split Korean BBQ, a rice bowl, and a pizza across one table without compromise. If Asian-influenced cooking is what you are chasing on this coast, it pairs naturally with a stop at Koi Sushi Bar further down the peninsula, and you can see the rest of the Maya Beach and Placencia lineup on the towns index. But the tabletop grill is the thing here, and it is worth planning a Maya Beach evening around.
