“excellent food”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 19, 2013

We stayed at the hotel next door but ate at LaniLangi most of the time. The restaurant was always packed so we decided to check it out. The food was excellent although the service was a little slow. The pasta dishes, particularly the fettuccine, was excellent. Also the octopus curry was to die for. If you can get a table on the beach side count yourself lucky and it's worth the wait if necessary....Oh, one major perk, the restaurant allows you to bring your own alcohol!!!

“Don't miss it.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013

This restaurant was great. Excellent food and service, and great ocean front location. The chef and owner were present and the food and service reflected it. We ate 3 meals here in 3 days.

“Octopus Curry....yummy!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 8, 2013

It was a long trek from our hotel to LangiLangi especially in the scorching sun, but it was well worth it. The food was delicious and the seating area was open to the sea breeze while still in the shade, providing an amazing ocean view while enjoying one's meal. The reason why it didn't get an excellent review was because the second time we went for the same dish, it wasn't as good as the first time, so a point was lost for inconsistency. Overall, good value for money, and perhaps the best value on the entire stretch of Nungwi beach.

“Best Food!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 6, 2013

we were there on a night when they had tons of large parties, but greeted by friendly staff and the owner. Low-key atmosphere, right on the beach w locally-inspired menu.

Try the fish w HOT! sauces, but watch out for the firepower! In fact, the menu mentions milkshakes a a side for some of the hotter items.

you cannot find a more authentic Zanzibar food experience!

we went back again for dinner and for our final lunch before leaving.
