Fantastic views of the city. Nice Christmas brunch. Good service. Just a bit too hot due to high celing and December is summer here in DAR. Loved it! Must go place in DAR.

Exceptional view of the city can be enjoyed here, India ocean on one side and Dars skyline on the other. Food was slightly bland for my liking.

It’s great restaurant located on the 21st floor of the Golden Jubilee towers in the city of Dar es Salaam. It’s unique revolving feature gives diners a 360 degrees view of the city. It is particularly awesome in the evening/night when the city lights up. The food is just perfect. It’s a great place for romantic dinners.

Great view of the city however was very disappointed with the food. The food lacked flavour, spice and was poorly prepared. E.g. we ordered crispy chicken wings and they were soft. Unfortunately, it seemed like there was more food colouring than actual herbs/spices on the chicken. I would only go for a drink and to experience the view.

Its the best overall view of Dar-Es-Salaam you can get (I think) its on the 21st floor. The floor is moving 360° but you can walk around. I changed 2x from table. Also during my visit there, I noticed people entering and taking pictures without consuming anything. So feel free to enter the building, move up to the 21st floor, take your pictures and leave again. They even have a outdoor smoking area. The good I ate was quite good. I took the chicken curry with rice and a afogatto as dessert. The Margarita cocktail was the best I had here in Tanzania.

Why a wonderful experience! Akemi is simply an amazing stop for an hour or six; revolving restaurant at the top of Dar, with an exceptional staff (especially Miriam, the waitress), if you have chance of stopping here you’ll not be disappointed. The food was 5-star, and the chef prepares so many different things that you’re going to find a flavor that will be exquisite (or even all the flavors, like me). Amazing food. Amazing service. The views are to die for! And the wine selection is top notch. Whether on a tight budget or looking to spend money, you have all options here. I was so supremely happy we spend the day here, especially for the Sunday buffet.

The restaurant actually revolves without you noticing. My advice, dont choose a seat basing on location, you will find yourself sitting in the opposite direction.

Decent food and great view! It seems to be suitable for a big private function too!Add: Came back after 3 months, and I didnt have data to ensure the Uber arrives without problems. The manager helped me without any fuss, and the waiter went downstairs to see me catch the correct registration Uber car! What a great service! Thanku!!

It is at the 21st floor of Golden jubilee towers. A very good place for private dinner and group meetings. The food is so good and theres a buffet too if you order for a group of people. The buffet is 35,000/= per person. There is a live band too on Friday night. If you dont want to seat at the Revolving segment of the restaurant then you can seat at the counter.

Me and my girlfriend with some friends have been here today. Akemi is the only revolving restaurant in dar es salaam. It has great view, good security, its clean everyplace. Akemi is in 21st floor reaching there you need to use lift in Wing B. Hope everyone will be here and they have the conference hall too.

Review №27

The view from the restaurant is stunning, the revolving floor is a cool gadget (turns pretty past compared to other revolving restaurants), the ambiance is classy, the food really good (I had the green curry and the sauce was so creamy and very well spiced) and the service in the restaurant is charming. However, the professionality of the service could still be improved through proper training of the waiters. Worth a visit!

Stunning views of Dar es Salaam from up here! The building itself is clearly deteriorating from lack of maintenance both downstairs when you enter and once you find the right lift to go all the wayup to Akemi its a similar story as well. The food is decent and the drinks are average.

Always judge someone or something on the ability to fix mistakes........Right from arriving at Akemi we were received and treated well. The view is truly amazing and so is the service.Unfortunately, one of our main courses wasnt eatable, but there were no issues or problems at all. Soon we had a new plate there which tasted great.Very good food, amazing service to prices thats affordable.Ill be back. See you next time there.

Food is excellent especially the buffet. The revolving part is really cool although its very slow, still enjoyable though and you end up in different places around the restaurant as you eat. Service is great too and very friendly, they even take songs suggestions and the view is amazing! Its definitely more on the expensive side though.

This is a great place to watch the sunset have some drinks and dine. It overlooks the city skyline on one side and the harbour on the other side. The restaurant area revolves(as the name suggests) giving a 360 view of the city of dar es salaam. The cocktails are the best in the city and theres a live band on fridays.

Review №58

Nice place to have a romantic dinner or just spend time with friends. The restaurant ground slowly moves and the view changes, it looks not ordinary and can impress of course. We were there on Sunday and had a Sunday buffet format, the food was good but a bit too expensive for such a format as for me. But the view compensates that for sure

Good ambience, excellent light for kodak moments and great panoramic views of the city by day and night. Food is mediocre at best, especially considering the price and bruhaha that surrounds east Africas only rotating hotel. By the way the skirting of the centre stage has come offin some areas exposing dangerous sharp nails..beware, maintenance is not part of their vocabulary

Excellent experience. Go for the light meals if you want something affordable. Light meal prices are better than most restaurants catering to tourists. Have fun guessing the number of hours per revolution. I almost made it all the way around. Dessert was overpriced but delicious. Service very good and it felt fancy. The view is great even at night. For me it was a great way to cap off my visit to Tanzania.

The setting for this restaurant atop one of the highest towers in the city is perfect; with breath taking views and high elegant ceilings that add to the aura of a rotating floor. It was exciting to admire different sides on the cityscape throughout the meal.Sadly the food was less interesting and came off as stock hotel food, except the lively salad bar. The staff and service was ok and the bill a little on the steeper end.
