Exceptional location, no doubt! Friendly manager. No running water in the bathroom to wash hands. I understand this was probably an unfortunate temporary situation but there were about 40-50 guests and the only one toilet was not flushing! The managers should come up with an...alternative solution. My guess is that water outage could be a recurring situation at the restaurant and telling the guests going to the bathroom “yeah we have water problem” was not really helping.More

Ok food, but nothing special, extremely large portions (quantity over quality). Fast service but no personal touch or relaxed feel. Busy and enclosed so didn't feel like we had the opportunity to walk around and appreciate the setting sipping a cocktail as we had expected....Lovely idea but not somewhere I would go again or recommend to go out of your way for.More

We went when the tide was out and were able to walk right up to the restaurant. It’s really a sight. They greeted us and had us seated quickly. It was a very sunny day but for a place with no air conditioning it was...pretty chilly inside. The food was GREAT but the portions were small. Our food came out quickly. We were really in and out lol. It’s a little tight in the dining area as you can imagine to maximize guests. They have a seating area in the back that’s got some sunlight and a gift shop up front. I would go back especially when the tides in just to see the difference. The only thing I didn’t like was the flies they were uninvited guests and annoying. But you are essentially eating outside so …More

Amazing food and especially the coconut tiramisu is to die for. The owner was super welcoming and friendly. During my trip I came back here 3 times and every time was super pleased with the service and quality of food

Nice ambiance. Great entrees. Exceptional customer. Expensive birthday cake. We walked in and road the boat back.

The best family dinner ever! Sunset with table outside with amazing view. Everyone super enjoyed all the dishes and our kids couldn't stopped eating and wanted our food as well. A memory for life, thank you Reddy with staff!More

Michelin stars quality food paradise. An outstanding dreamy location in Zanzibar to experience in full the magic of Indian Ocean semi-diurnal tides - I was happily surprised myself by plenty of crabs all around at the base of the restaurant! The very best lunch of...my life with friends and family. Special thanks to Reddy and all the lovely crew for their top class service. Highly recommended!More

Very nice location and the view is excellent. The food was very very nice. Best tuna stake ever. Worths all the money spent.More

That was one of our best moments in Tanzania. It was an amazing experience, with very professional and friendly staff who played and entertained my children during our lunch, and most importantly, the view and food are terrific!!! I really don't understand how there can...be recent reviews saying bad things or that the value doesn't match the service/food. the only justification I can find is that these comments actually belong to people who didn't have lunch or dinner and went there just for pictures or to take one drink :) We were lucky because we arrived at low tide but after lunch we took the nice rowing boat, very typical and funny to end the experience. The atmosphere is incredible, the view is great, we stayed outside which made our lunch perfect and we ate a lot and even repeated dishes, which says a lot about the quality ehehehhehe. At the end, I even spoke with the general manager (I guess...) who showed that he really puts a lot of effort and his heart to keep this place and special location for all of us! That being said... please trust me! GO THERE and enjoy! :)More

e you are in Zanzibar, or even close, you have to go here. It's just an amazing experience and the food is terrific. I love the small row boat they use to ferry customers to and from - unique and fun. It's hard for me...to find fault with this restaurant. The ambience is amazing, the view is terrific, the staff are great, and the amount of lobster you get is astounding. Plain and simple.... just go here. Trust us.More

As a group of 6 we booked into The Rock for a meal on our last day in Zanzibar. We arrived at the lovely white sand beach early, so we decided to go to one of the close by bars for a drink beforehand. Once...it was close to our 4pm booking we walked down to get the boat across as the tide had come in. The setting and location really is something else… We all had the fish fingers for starters and then we had a tomahawk steak between each couple. The food was excellent as was the service. When paying we managed to have a good chat with the owner, who is a really nice guy… he’s Italian & his wife is Scottish. An excellent experience, we will be back when in Zanzibar ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️More

The location is obviously exceptional and the food, even though on the more expensive side, was excellent (especially the fish carpaccio and desserts). My only issue was the service. Everything felt so rushed and a waiter showed up each time I was chewing my last...bite or drinking my last sip. And if I wasn't eating or ordering more food or drinks, I was asked 3,000 times if I wanted more, even though I said I was fine. I felt like I couldn't enjoy my lunchtime and I ended up shortening my stay there, which was such a shame. So in the end, it did feel like a tourist trap/money-making machine, hence the 3 stars... I'd still recommend it but I wish they could have less customer turnover so we can enjoy the view and vibe of the place with no rush and no constant bugging.More
