Do not recommend this place for breakfast. You would wait 1h for some basic salad, next to the dirty and noisy road, in quite dirty place (from evening, I believe).Maybe in the noon it gets better but not going to try anymore. Green salad, avocado burger and tuna salad were not tasty.It is quite cheap, but doesnt worth time IMHO.

Seafood curry was nice. The medium snapper is a bit small and covered with a cream sauce. We also tried the barracuda which was a bit dry.Good price but average food.

Great seafood! We’ve been coming here twice a day. This place doesn’t look as fancy as nearby restaurants but the food is excellent. I would recommend to try octopus and calamari first. Gorgeous.

This place has international/touristic food, and also authentic local food: up to you to make the right choice (for you!)! The octopus I had there was the best meal I had in Kendwa, and among the best octopi ever. Definitely recommendable. Service is typical, ie slow but kind.

Relaxed place with delicious authentic seafood and fair prices. All meals are prepared freshly. Service is friendly. Owned by local people, if you come here you support a truly zanzibari business.

Food is very average, prices are the same level as on the beach, but the place itself is not beautiful at all. Instead of chiken breast they brought us chiken leg. Instead on Kilimangiaro beer they have brought Safari. Rice and potatoes were all cold on the dish. I would not recommend this place

Thanks for delicious food!Do not pay attention to the comments from the Russians, these are people who do not like everything and do not have respect to everything local. Their hobbies are aggression and occupation other countries.Everything was amazing!

This place saved us from the horrendous tourist food of the nearby resorts on our last night in Kendwa. Really simple, local style dishes at a great price. Excellent fish masala. If you eat here, you wont be served the worst version of Western cuisine that you get at the nearby hotels.

Definitely recommend! The food is delicious, big portions, very well seasoned, juicy and for a great price. I appreciate that the restaurant even looks local, nothing grand or luxurious, gives you at least some local feel of Zanzibar. Even though they take their time - as everywhere on Zanzibar (HAKUNA MATATA) it is worth it. Have some Safari or Kilimanjaro and enjoy!!

We were surprised with the food and service given the 4.6 rating of this place. It took 1 hour and 20 minutes for our food to come out, which was cold. Also both our fish dishes (tuna and daurade) were dry. Not very impressed overall

Food is good but way too slow, even by Tanzanian standards. We had to wait 1 hour and 15 minutes for our food, even though they only had to serve two tables in the whole place

Great food, great service and big portions. Run by locals, mainly for tourist customers. Found the prices to be cheapest in Kendwa but this didnt reflect in the quality of the food which was always excellent and always freshly cooked.

Tasty seafood, but I frankly expected more. However, the fish is local and the value for money is very good. The service is quite slow, but it depends on the fact that the restaurant is very crowded.

Very reliable fishery in the village. As many other locations in Tanzania, they will make sure to take their time to prepare and serve🤣

We lived in a 2-minute walk from the restaurant, so we came here sometimes for lunch or dinner. The restaurant is good, the food is delicious and the prices are affordable. The portions are large, once we took two dishes for two and did not finish. Therefore, in subsequent times they took one portion for two and ate well.I really liked the tuna salad and octopus, although the octopus was a little harsh in places. Tried pizza - not to say that straight Wow, but good enough. I liked the vegetable curry very much. True, this is more like a vegetable stew with rice. The squid is delicious.If you are nearby, this is a good place to have a tasty meal.
