About 6 Degrees South

Overlooking the vibrant waterfront, this Zanzibar establishment offers a sophisticated dining experience. With a solid 4.3 out of 5 stars from nearly 2,000 reviews, it's a popular choice for good reason. Diners consistently praise the "amazing view" from the rooftop, particularly during the day with sights of Nakupendu sandbank and Prison Island. The food is described as a "delicious savory blend of local cui," and service, like that from Ayoub, is noted for its excellence and helpful recommendations. While the beer selection might be a point of improvement for some, the overall atmosphere is perfect for a modern contemporary evening, and the restaurant is well-suited for groups and reservations are recommended, especially for their popular Tuesday night karaoke.

4.3 / 5.0(1,956 reviews)

Very upscale place. They have Karaoke on Tuesday night. They could improve on the beers available… Go early or make a reservation if you go for Karaoke night. Views should be immaculate during the day! The most amazing view from the rooftop bar eating lunch with a friend 🧡 nakupendu sandbank and prison island in the distance. Perfect setting and food was great Great service from Ayoub with greatrecommendations! Nice Friday modern contemporary evening vibes. Delicious savory blend of local cuisine with modern style 😋 . I enjoyed really enjoyed comparing American southern food to Tanzanian cuisine. Fish cakes to salmon crochet; Ungali, Fufu, and Grits. Im glad to connect with my culture roots 🌍

The food was good, and the view from the rooftop was lovely. However, one of the waiters was insistent about asking for my number, while another rudely called me “nihao” (I’m not Chinese, by the way). Overall, the experience was not worth it for me, and I will probably not go back.
