“Pleasant garden dining experience. We literally trusted Google Maps to recommend a meal place and we weren't disappointed. Food was good, served warm not hot and server forgot tartar sauce for the calamari which was too crispy for my preference. I would definitely visit again”

“extremely generous portions, couldn't finish my food.. fairly priced, can't complain....the Atmosphere is okay, i figured that's what's mainly available in Mutare, sitting in the garden...Keep up the good work!!”

“When they said waffles with icecream this is definitely not what I expected. It's literally a scoop of icecream with some store bought wafers, extremely underwhelmed especially for the price. I feel scammed.”

A cosy and chilled garden dining, a must experience - I think particularly in summer. The food comes in bigger portions for a really affordable price. When the chef warned us about the portions, we thought it was part of his marketing strategy, but boy, was he right. The chef is friendly and warm. He even invited us to dine in his house since it was cold outside, but we didn't. It was not that chilly anyway. Aside from the fact that there were not many beverage choices (which I think they can improve), this was a wonderful experience. I'd love to call again!

Food was delicious, unfortunately it took extremely long to get our food. There were also no soft drinks available for the first hour or so that we were there. Food did not come to the table at once. We were a group of 8, the last 2 plates only came after everyone else was done eating which was quite disappointing. It was none the less very tasty.

Hard to find using maps , no signage to direct potential clients , had to call them for directions. Food is too expensive, the place was deserted probably because of price , however a sociable waiter did more than enough to convince us to buy , unfortunately the price was a turn off !!!!

The Chef has a foul attitude. Doesn't deliver what is on the menu and dares to tell me to order "zvinhu zvatinoziva" basically order what you know. My order for a "death by chocolate" was a piece of choc cake and strawberry ice cream... Who doesn't know what they need to know here. And talk about bad service, should you not be encouraging your patrons to try some of your specialities? Moreover the previous night we had ordered take away burgers which had the wrong elements to what was fully described on the menu. Let's not even start with the Hawaiian pizza which was soaked in cheese. All that would have been water under the bridge but this chef had to be so rude and yet he's lacking in his own right. Never recommending this place.
