Laruni Hati is probably better as a lunch destination than dinner. Three of us who were staying nearby looked for it long and hard after dark, and finally saw a hand-lettered sign pointing toward the beach. It was down 100 yards or so, with few lights visible and no customers whatsoever on the small patio. But we plunged on, and... More 

Marva serves delicious Belizean food for a reasonable price. We had dinner there twice and were satisfied. The restaurant is located directly on the beach. You must try the hudut, a traditional Garifuna dish that is served only a few times a week (ask her during the day if she serves it and you can reserve your meal). Marva is... More 

This is one of the few beach-front places still owned locally. We had lunch and ordered fish and thought it was delicious. Everything was cooked fresh. The view was also beautiful. Great prices. It was hard to find, but if you just ask around, it is worth the exploration! Most locals know it as "Marva's restaurant".

We ate here several times during our stay because it was close to the drum center. The food was very average. The pricing was very reasonable which kept us coming back.

The food here is wonderful, the atmosphere awesome...the sand fleas relentless..don't let this stop you from going there.. The food is worth it. Get food to go at night Orr go early. It's worth it

Had a great dinner here on a calm, clear, quiet evening. My Moon guide book says this is the only beachside restaurant in Hopkins owned by a local (Garifuna) woman. I loved being able to eat outdoors and look out at the sea right there. Can't wait to go back and have more meals there. This is not fast food.... More 

Imagine, you're walking on the beach on a sunday around lunchtime and all of a sudden the sea breeze blows the smell of delicious food in your nose. Locals are gathered around tables and they feast on delicious dishes like grilled fish, chicken, fajitas...Don't resist, you've found Laruni Hati, just sit down, order a cool beer, wait for your food...
