Greetings from Romania🇷🇴 Probably one of the best local restaurants around(from 2 restaurants in this village) As a tourist i was very happy to find it and dined every evening and afternoon. The prices are lower than the hotels around and good portioned, sizewise. The menu changes every day, i think they have like 2-3 choices. Try the coconut cheesecake is out of this world. Check photos here.

This is the most delicious café in the village! The guys who work here — you are the best! The tastiest cocktails in all of Zanzibar! As for the food: we tried almost the entire menu, and everything was always perfect! Large portions, fresh ingredients, amazing flavor — I’m going to miss this food so much! The team really puts in the effort; the café is always clean and the service is impeccable! Thank you so much!

Gerezani is a true hidden gem — full of local charm and serving wonderfully flavorful dishes. We started with the garlic prawns, which were an absolute delight. For our mains, we had the crushed coconut tuna: crispy on the outside, slightly overdone, but still rich in taste and truly enjoyable. The side dish of perfectly seasoned potato slices with caramelized onion rings was delicious as well. All of this paired beautifully with a refreshing hibiscus gin & tonic. A local restaurant absolutely worth recommending.

The best local restaurant I’ve eaten at on the entire island of Zanzibar! And I mean it — I’ve been all around the island and tried many places, but this spot beats them all. The portions are veeeeeery big, the food is fresh and full of flavor, and the prices are the lowest on the island. The staff? Great guys, super friendly, helpful and always smiling. The atmosphere is relaxed, local, and authentic — exactly what real travelers are looking for. I recommend it 1000%! Traveler — step outside your hotel and try the real taste of Tanzania. You won’t regret it!

Very nice local restaurant in beautiful Mfumbwi, Jambiani area! Food is delicious, the vibes are really nice and the prices is very good! I ate there many times during my time in Zanzibar, like grilled garlic octopus with pesto, chicken wraps and seafood pizza that was the best and cheapest seafood pizza i found in the whole island! Also the staff was nice and kind + the service fast

An absolute gem! They write the menu on a board, and it’s always changing. Everything is fresh and beautifully presented. The desserts are also a must-try, don’t leave without having one! The staff is super friendly and create a welcoming atmosphere. It’s a popular spot, so come early to avoid waiting times. Highly recommend!

A local restaurant where mostly whites people eat. Low prices. Boys and girls in the open kitchen (you see how they cook) work very fast - 4 cooks and 2 waiters. Full professionalism. Drinks are in a fixed menu. The food menu is adapted daily to the semi-finished products that are available - always only fresh products. The menu in the form of a chalkboard is still alive. When King Fish ends, it is replaced by tuna. There are always at least two starter options to choose from, several main course options, desserts and pizza and wraps. Thank you very much Tonio (ZAD-EAST) for the recommendation.
