I'am from Catalunya, mediterranean sea..., i really know what is good food and good paellas, seafood...etc... i can say that there i'd eaten a high level paella and seafood. Try the "cole cole fish" or the tuna, or the famous black paella... All food is fresh. Beside all, Miquel, the chef, is so charm and kind. Great great food at great environment!!! Great oportunity to eat great paella far from Catalunya.

Karamba Restaurant is located in the South tip of the Island. Miquel, the Chef and owner, has created a real gem, with a great variety of dishes, including several delicious vegan options, the best paella in Tanzania and any fish or seafood plate you dream of in whatever form or size. A sentence apart deserves the Tuna dishes: I have never had such good tuna as in Karamba Restaurant. And it was not just once, it is every single time. You can have tuna burger, carpaccio, tartar...and the most amazing grilled or seared tuna fillet steaks, with generous quantities, cooked to perfection. Unless you are a vegetarian, do not leave Zanzibar without trying Karamba´s tuna!

With this bountifulness of fish and seefood, the menu is really poor and not worth the price. You get much better food for 20 USD half day excursion with the locals on the boat to a remote island buying the whole octopus, or catch of a day from the fisherman with a little bit more for all!

The food here is completely delicious. The owner(a clear spanish foodie himself) gives a different more exciting edge to his cooking than any of the other places we ate in Zanzibar. He is happy to give you amazing recommendations which are not cultivated from the menu but from what is fresh that day.I strongly advise ordering the lobster Paella a day in advance - it is magic and according to a spanish couple eating there- the best one they had ever had. We loved this place so much that we braved the tides and climbed half an hour across the rocks from our hotel everyday for lunch. A true winner.
