What an amazing spot! The food, service, and overall vibe were all fantastic. We ended up having dinner here three nights in a row because we loved it so much. The pizza was delicious, the garlic prawns were full of flavour, and the tacos were absolutely perfect. Everything was fresh, well-made, and served with a smile — truly a place worth coming back to! Food is pricey but well worth it.. During our recent visit, we sampled several pizzas and found the large size ideal for sharing with family. However, the toppings left us wanting more: on the seafood pizza, the seafood was diced so finely that it lost its texture and flavor, and the Meat Lovers pizza, while hearty, failed to distinguish itself in taste or presentation. On the upside, the service was friendly and attentive, and the Fiji Gold beer was perfectly chilled. Overall, the atmosphere and cold beer were highlights, but the pizzas themselves could benefit from more generous, better-seasoned toppings and bolder flavors We wish we’d found this place earlier in our trip. With subpar food at our hotel, this place was a blessing. First decent cocktail in 3 days 😂 and the music and vibe was spot on. Let’s chat about Fiji food - I don’t think you go to Fiji for the food. So this food was just fine. Better than half the other places we ate. Keep it up guys!

Lovely location at the Marina. A pint of Fiji gold is $6FJD and my partner said it was the best he had all holiday. My strawberry frozen motijo was amazing! Only $10FJD. We had nachos and shared them and they were sooo good, not one didn’t have cheese or meat on. The pineapple salsa on top was great too. The lady who served us, I think her name was Marie she was so lovely and so attentive. A great server, nothing was slow! There was a live singer too which was lovely

Had the large seafood platter to share among three adults. Food was definitely enough to share however everything was overcooked and dry. The poor lobster came out like eating beef jerky. The meal itself took nearly an hour to arrive. Staff were really friendly but they were short of staff and stretched thin. You would only go there for the atmosphere and view, not the food.
