Why Travelers Love Fifi´s Restaurant
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
4.2 / 5.0(974 reviews)
Excellent restaurant to try local Tanzanian food. Just within walking distance from Fourpoints Sheraton, the restaurant serves good local cuisine, pork, chicken n beef. Food came out a bit slow and service can be slow despite been the only customer but it was worth it, just means it wasn’t microwave. My friends and I brought the students here for the first time they were dining at the restaurant. I felt so honored to take them out for lunch. They liked the food because it was so delicious. The service was great. I actually had waited like 45 minutes after we order the food for it to come. The food was good, but it doesn't really matter at that point. I wasn't happy with how long it took.

Fifi's my go to place as they have everything just how I like starting from their coffee, to their milkshakes to their food. Every set of meal is good to have there, for breakfast, for lunch and even for dinner. They also have this great curio shop where there's a lot of cultural items that are so lovely, even got myself a cute scrunchie. Fifi's is a place to. One more thing the service is amazing and so welcoming.

The food is very good especially their French fries are worth a try. It’s a really cozy place and food is clean. They also serve good coffee. The service is a bit slow but it’s worth the wait and prices are really reasonable compared to many other places. It’s good value for the money.
