Best NYE experience had at the Waterfront. Very well organized and festive. Large buffet selection of delicious food and desserts. The fireworks display at the bay was beautiful. Best way to end off the year in Tanzania!

Too terrible. The taste was nice 1 year ago, but they changed too much now. The most menu changed into another local way.I ordered delivery this time, but only this restaurant seems to call this Spaghetti Napoli in the world. I couldnt eat even a little.

Good is average, it depends what you order. The desserts were disappointing, the best thing about this place is the location. The view from here is simply stunning!

Lovely restaurant right at the ocean in Dar Es Salaam.Excellent service and great food and drinks.Given all of the above,very fair pricing (e.g drinks for c. 15000 and meals between 20000 and 40000).You can easily spend am entire afternoon there just sipping cocktails by the ocean

Food was average, not flavourful or anything. Fries tasted better than it looked. There is a view and live band if you go at the right time.In the afternoons the heat and the flies are annoying.Cocktails aren’t that great either.

If you are a sunset lover like me then The Waterfront Slipway is one of the best places to watch the sunset! Be sure to be there early if it’s on a weekend to get a perfect seat! Overall it’s a good chill spot in town!

For a nice sunset view couple with a delightful meal, look no further than waterfront. Just grab a seat near the sea and enjoy the scene. Thank me later

A very chill spot, good food, great service, nice views.

Very good veg restaurant across Dar es salam city. Clean and hygiene. All Indian veg dishes available here. Spacious and enough parking space in front of restaurant.

Amazing food and ambience not to forget their warm staff!Definitely visiting again when in Dar

Was excited to try this restaurant but was let down with the food. Portions sizes were small and prices were high. Youre definetly paying for the view here. We had the StoneTown Fish Curry and Pork Ribs and they were okay but nothing great or worth getting again.

Didnt get to take pictures of the inside. Has the best view of the beach. Ideal for singles, couples and family. The staff were friendly, especially Rehema.You can bring your laptop and work away as there are charging bays.

Tasty pizza but beef bacon was like bubble gum. Excellent service right next to the waterfront.

Reasonable quality food, but very nice place to sit in the sun. Staff ultra friendly, prices are moderate. Samosas are nice and the chicken skewers are good.

Good place with a view to sit by at evening with live music. Little slow at service.

Please dont visit this place if you are a black African that cant speak Swahili, or the waiters will mock you! At least that was my experience here tonight.The place is lovely, with a good vibe and live band. However, the wait staff need better customer service training.

Service is good but can be better. Food is tasty delicious and comes on time. Nice view of the boats nearby and horizon hotels and buildings.

Wonderful place for sundowners and seafood. Pleasant vibe on the waterfront.

A pleasant experience. Nice to walk along the side of the ocean and experience the buzz of people at the local restaurants.Not really a Sandy beach type of place but good views. You can also get a short boat ride around the bay or a long boat ride to the island. My video on this is coming soon to You Tube.See the Charcmode You Tube channel for more.

The best restaurant on the offshore of Indian ocean. World class service, nice cool environment, yummy sea food and woow.. live music

Food is good and drinks also have many options to choose from. The shore is not as clean as it used to be with lots of plastic bottles n stuff.

Atmosphere was good, it was happening, clean. The place is really cool for drinks but the food, not so much. We went for dinner, we had 2 appetizers that were ok, for mains we had whole grilled fish and baby octopus. It was non edible, just a mash of ingredients. Wouldnt recommend going hungry

Restaurant with great views and ambienceHas some good variety of seafood on the menu with local fresh produce!The calamari rings are definately to be tried, cooked to perfection, amazingly tender and tastyHas a vegetarian menu! Serves pizza! And offers desserts as well.Sunsets are the best times, though can be more crowded at that time and service tends to get slower, but the hot freshly cooked food is Much appreciated.Ask to be served by Eric, he is super efficient.

I had the goat fried with chips. Very tasty. Also the beer was extra cold. Very lovely place, the food is great and the views are even better. Service was excellent and courteous as well the pricing is very affordable. I would greatly recommend The Waterfront to anyone.

Amazing view and food but terrible customer services. We had asked 3 different people to come and listen to us But no one showed up and finally this one guy comes ain a rush and when we tried to inquire about certain options of the menu, he dared to say this is why people are not coming to your table ..and kept on saying I am needed at the other tables, I got so confused about his attitude, I think he assumed we were there just to sit ?? And the fact that he said do you know why people are not coming to your table to serve you?? came out so wrong..

The wate front... ! Loved this place.. Various options on food.. Very comfortable and enjoyable place.. Kids friendly. I will definitely spend my most of the evenings at this place when am in Dar again.

This restaurant has one of the best view in Dar es Salaam. The food is good but expensive. Less vegetarian options are available though. Good for non vegetarians especially for the sea food. Looks lovely at in the evening after all the candles are lit. You also get to see the sunset if go at the right time.

Nice view. Nice location. Terrible staff especially if you are of African origin or person of color. They will prefer to run and serve white customers over you. And when they serve you, they do so half heartedly like you are a bother. Its definitely not on the list of places Ill ever visit again.

Beautiful spot for a bite with a view you can’t beat. Young. Hip. Good menus with a combo of Tanzanian traditional dishes and western mains. Something for everyone but not the best vegetarian variety. Really surprisingly well priced for an expat spot!

Everything is great about The WaterFront Restaurant except for one small but concerning thing......the crows. They are small, smart, and opportunistic....they will attempt to take your food when you are not looking.

Awesome view. Food was amazing. The service for me was not that amazing 😒

I love the food taste, presentation, ans everything... A bit pricey but the view and atmosphere are worth it.

The food is Ok, the staff is friendly, the is beer cold and the view is nice. Then why 3 stars only?Its so @^#! noisy there! The music is soo loud and when you have bad luck even more loud music is comming from the Terrace restaurant upstairs, when there is a wedding party there.But many people seem not to bother. So dont give too much weight to my three stars only.

A restaurant right on the ocean front! You get a beautiful view and the food tastes great. A nice place for a date. Not the cheapest, but the food is well prepared. The place can be busy as it is fairly popular, so getting a reservation would be good, but not required.

This place is a joke , tasteless overpriced every day foods. Yet want to be seen as a very luxury restaurant, if you want to be seen as luxury change your cheap roofing first, dont use roofings for slums

Food:Ordered jumbo prawns and king prawns. Only 3 jumbo prawns came and were old & tasteless. King prawns were better but not something to order again.My son ordered spare ribs. It seemed like they brought him a plate of leftovers. Bones without meat. Shame.Service:The waiter served us very well.Value for price:Over priced. I thought we’d get something spectacular for the amount charged.Environmental:Nice.

Coming to this place since childhood, having the best pizzas since then. The place has improved, and having alot of customers. The menu has improved. Good customer service.

This restaurant is just on the beach, have nice sea view, but the food not much delicious, i choose this fish cost 29000TZS(13USD), the fish is very small and taste is just very normal, do not delicious;😂

I was greeted by a group of not-so-warm hostesses when I asked for a table by the water. I ended up sitting a table away and still enjoyed my delightful seafood dish for one. The Chardonnay was cold and crisp and paired quite well with the calamari and prawns. My server and manager were quite the contrary of the hostesses and I enjoyed their service. The ambiance is great, beautiful sunset, and live music as the dark of the evening greets you.

By far one of the better dining experiences in Dar. Prawns recommended. Or anything grilled. Service is slow but one cant complain when one has a great view to while the time away.

I enjoyed alot the seafood is so fresh nice service and price is very affordable for every one nice sunset view over her i always love being here with friends and family

Nice and quiet place. Great food and the view is breathtaking. Whether you have a date a small group of friends gathering together. This is the right place to go. For those who love dining by the ocean.

Great ambiance, tables were not clean when we ate there. Service was good.

Very nice restaurant and very nice waiter…best waiter in Daresalaam is Faisal Haroub at waterfront restaurant in slipway…love you guys 🇹🇿❤️❤️❤️

The location is fantastic especially if you want to watch the sunset 🌇. The food menu has a wide range of meal selections from seafood, fish, meat etc. I am yet to try their pizza 🍕 so I hope they are as tasty as they seem. The drinks menu is good although I would like to see more wines on the wine list. Live band is always a good vibe too - totally recommend this place 👌🏽

I enjoyed my time here with friends. Good friends, great staff and customer service. Will be back next time Im back to Tanzania

Great place to relax and have a meal. Highly recommend.

Nice view from the restaurant. Expensive on the other end i would say if you have a date then 😉 must come here

Nice setting, by the ocean, with some amazing sunsets. The entertainment is good, especially the live band. Usually there is abit of a wait, service is alright... Tip: Dont order the water, or asl of they have anything other than kisima.

Its a perfect sun-downer spot. The food is quite good though a bit expensive. They sell such lovely wine, kudos to that and the customer service is excellent.

Great location especially in the late afternoon. Good vibes and good music. It is a tourist location so food and products are priced accordingly. Most items on the menu may be a liltle spicy so bare that in mind.

Chic restaurant at the Slipway. Amazing sea food and good variety. Lovely view of the sunset.

This restaurant is located in a very beautiful place. Its right in the seafront of the Msasani Bay. Views of the sunset are stunning. Unfortunately I ordered a prawns dish and they were not fresh. I told the waiter and the offered to change it but I did not feel like ordering something else and they did not charge me. Anyway, service was good and the over all experience was good appart from the non fresh prawns. I will still give them a 4 star rating as the was they felt with it was good and the rest of the experience was great.

The place is wonderful, has a great view of the ocean, cool breeze, very delicious food. By far one of the best restaurants in Dar

Its a nice place, with a beautiful view of the beach.I really love their Pizza

The place is amazing. They serve regional and international dishes. You can eat lobster here or try local beef broth with chapatti. All tables are protected from the sun and the benches are very comfortable and equiped with pillows. I love their tuna steak. Its so big and perfectly prepared. The staff is always nice and very friendly.

Amazing food... And all nights I have gone there, there was a live band giving beautiful music ❤️

Location and View 5 starService is 2 slow, which would not suggest if you have loans for the rest of your day/evening ( they forgot to place our order and we waste 40minutes waiting for pizza in free afternoon )Check out is 2 star due to manager refused to give a print out or write of TRA receipt...

The view was marvelous and the food to die for. The waitress, Stella i believe was a vibrant happy and beautiful soul.😍😍

I would give The Waterfront a better review if not for two flaws. One, they make you play the seat lottery where a limited number of comfy bench style seats situated perfectly for a view and better enjoyment, are usually taken, forcing you to choose between uncomfortable bar stool seats and if youre lucky, patio furniture style chairs.Im amazed management doesnt see the problem here, after watching countless groups desperately trying to land good seating then settling for a bar stool.The 2nd flaw is the crowd. The Waterfront invites the tackiest bands in to play 3rd rate renditions of Elvis Presley type songs that attract, well, people who like to listen to 3rd rate renditions of Elvis Presley style songs.You wont have much chace of seeing beautiful people at The Waterfront, management chases them away good and proper.Outside of that, the food is good, service is good, and this restaurant could be great if its management made some simple, easy fixes.

Lovely views and ice cold prosecco.. what more could you ask for?

Beautiful place to be, you looking for an escape route .....you on the right place

The ambiance is great; one of the best places to enjoy a meal as u enjoy the African sunset as God intended at creation. I sampled a tender goat meat dish, served with deep fried & dried bananas with vegetable salad. I liked everything except the salad (served without any dressing). Price is comparable to other restaurants of same calibre in Dar. Customer service was average. During the day/evening u may have to contend with some Indian House crows anxious to grab a piece of ur meal. Seems like a very popular place, patronized by locals & foreigners. It will be great to designate a specific area for smokers. Overall, a great place

Taste was over rated and expensive.small quantities against high price.The good thing is the sea view

The customer service is alright but the food isn’t that great and neither are the drinks, plus they take soo long to bring the food out... overall only a cute place for the view

Wonderful view. Should be definitely visited.

The place is really superb. One of the best place to observe the Sunset and chill in Dar es Salaam. Someone must not miss visiting Slipway its really worthy.

Nice place and tasty food. Medium prices

This place should be a 6 to 7 star ⭐⭐ restaurant!Loved it here ❤️

Beautiful location but the staff is way to full of themselves.- that spoils the experience. I really do not understand what is going on here. Nobody seems to genuinely give or enjoy customer service here. Also when staff are that much louder then their guests...its very unprofessional. Much improvement needed.

Love this place... great food..great view and friendly people

Chilled, good for relaxing, very good service! Great views too.

Was good, and there was a nice live band. Best place for sunset view in Dar.

Very good place to eat.

Good food,good view and good music.

Nice place perfect Location for sundowner food is OK good service only prices are a little Bit high.

Pricy but taste is worth every peny 😍😍😍

Great food.....even greater view

Beautiful setting with chill ambiance near the water! Good food but the view is better!

Beautiful view of the Indian Ocean. Small portions for the price. Based on multiple visits: drinks - juice is fresh, beer was chilled but not ice cold. Food - prawns were delicious and by far my favorite. Fish and chips were dry. Pizza is good. Gets pretty busy at night and on weekends.

It was a great experience..good customer care,nice food, the weather everything was perfect👌

Sunset happy hour!Lovely spot to watch the sunset feeling the sand between your toes. Happy hour was from 5pm-7pm with all cocktails. Not the biggest cocktail selection but great tasting!

Good location on the beach good service reasonably priced food

Its a good restaurant with a good view from the Indian Ocean.

Have been here for lunch and dinner, both excellent.Had octopus both times and it was superb.Large menu, with many interesting dishes.Would recommend and go again.Bring bug spray at night (outdoors beside the bay).

Great spot for sundowners as its right by the river and they have a good selection of drinks 🍸🍹🍷. The best thing about Waterfront however is their food. I have eaten here on several occasions and Im always super satisfied with whatever I eat. You cant go wrong with the pizzas (try the seafood pizza) or prawns. Delicious! The service is also fine and always a good atmosphere

Amazing sunset, ambient environment and friendly staff

Seafood and salad was hot and delicious did not wait too long but we had to pay for salad but it was not mentioned on the menu.This place has best spot to view sunset with nice sea breeze of Indian Ocean. Price are bit fair but it’s worth but chips mayai is too expensive.

This place is nearly prefect... The view and atmosphere is amazing... Sitting on the patio, drinking ice cold coke out of a glass bottle looking out over the bay as the sun goes down... Simply amazing... The food was great but I think out of date lamb stew with sour cottage cheese would taste good with that view

Good ambience. Good service. Good food. Great waterfront view. Nice outdoors African setting. Responsive and helpful staff. The crowd starts growing towards the evening. The place draws in tourist and expat crowd. Nice music.

Awesome taste of pizza 🍕

Great view of the Indian Ocean from the restaurant/bar. Great menu though they can add more variety plus cocktails. The service is good, happy hour should last longer 😅 Recommended for dates or a night out with friends.

Restaurant is lovely, good food. A beautiful spot in Dar es Salaam

Great food. Great views. Friendly staff. Beer is always cold. A little bit pricey but well worth it. Try the seafood you wont be disappointed. Very busy Friday through Sunday. They have a bar section where you can grab a drink without ordering food

Amazing place, nice view

Beautiful

Brilliant restaurant in a fantastic location. The view and food were equally great. I happen to be there while the staff were gathered around clapping, perhaps celebrating the generous tips received from happy customers?

No TRA receipt available....otherwise fine

Great food and nice waiters

The location and ambience is the best you can get in Dar.The service can be a lot better though - had to flag down a waiter repeatedly just to get served. That too on a late Sunday evening - not the busiest of times.But surely not to be missed - just for the location and views across the bay.
