Good local food and very nice people.It is recommended to reserve in advance. You have to try the poisson cru (starter with raw fish similar to ceviche or fish carpaccio).

Great place in Jambiani, a bit unusual since we got the food reaaal quick as for Zanzibar standards ;)Great service, good English, very tasty local food at very reasonable prices. Amazing Poisson Cru! One of the best raw fish plates I've ever had. If I ever come to Zanzibar again I will 100% come back to eat at Chez Hassan.

You have to try this restaurant. We found it by coincidence on Google and were intrigued. The food is really very good. The Poisson Cru (raw fish - see picture) is to die for. We went there two days and were never disappointed and we tried all of the Zanzibari specialties on the menu. Highly recommended!!

This restaurant is really difficult to find, but if you are travelling with Google maps you will find the way easily. My favourite dish was octopus and calamari- if you have the chance please try it! From the restaurant there’s no straight view on the ocean.

Just returned from this excellent Jambiani restaurant. At noon it was not crowded at all, so our order was ready in 15 min. Great taste (fish and calamari), with flavour and spices. Very affordable prices, as well. This place is calling us back, for sure.

I really recommend this place! Fish florentine and fish with curry are delicious. The food has good quality, you will not be disappointed. Also try the passion fruit and avocado smoothie!
