Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
4.3 / 5.0(83 reviews)
I’ve been here twice, and both times I had to wait 60 minutes for the food, which is unacceptable (I can cook faster at home). The quality of the food is average, nothing special. If you’re really hungry, it’s okay, but I wouldn’t recommend it if you want to enjoy your meal. The meat is quite dry, and the pizza is underseasoned. Delicious food - had the beef stew with rice and also tried 1/4 chicken and chips. Both very tasty! Remember, they serve good food, not fast food. Awesome pizza served with a small salad in the middle, a nice touch. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem connected to a service station. A medium pizza a couple appetizers and a drink about 10 TZS ($5). Delicious stuff.. Friendly staff.

Very decent pizza with lots of toppings! Large portion sizes compared to all other restaurants I've been to in Arusha. Service was pretty slow -- we had to wait over an hour for dinner for two, even during normal dinner hours.
