Why Travelers Love ZANZILOVERS RESTAURANT
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
4.8 / 5.0(260 reviews)
Just passing through this busy part of town and plumped to eat here as it looked authentic. Stunning young lady with a beautiful smile served us. They didn’t serve beer but we were allowed to pop to the shop next door and buy our own. Food was just delicious and very reasonable. My Husband had fish and I had chicken curry. Portions were plentiful. Fab service and will most definitely will be back during our stay! Loved it 🥰 Nice little local place! We came here after reading the reviews and it was totally worth it. Prices are way better than the beach restaurants, and the food was delicious. We especially loved the calamari! The falafel box is highly recommended and the Biriani rice dishes too. The service was excellent. Prices are reasonable 😁 we will come back next time.

The waiters were incredibly friendly. The food was amazing, the juices were to die for and the price was very low, especially for all that we got in return. Definitely recommend trying out this place.
