Royal restaurant
About
For a restaurant in Zanzibar, Royal restaurant sits at 777Q+3R in Nungwi, on the island's northern tip. Diners have pushed the average to 4.1 out of 5 across 28 reviews, a tally that points to a small, steady following rather than a venue chasing volume. With that review count, booking a table ahead is the sensible route, particularly at weekends when local demand builds.
Nungwi anchors the north, within reach of Kendwa and Matemwe, and the drive down to Stone Town follows the coast. The kitchen serves the island's Swahili cooking, where pilau, biryani, urojo soup and octopus stew are common dishes on both Zanzibar and Pemba.
Two photographs accompany the venue's listing, and a website at royalzanzibar.com carries the restaurant's details. Those are the practical reference points for anyone planning a meal.
Kiswahili is the main language of both islands, with English widely used in tourism and Arabic loanwords in everyday speech. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba. Taarab music, with orchestras and sung poetry, originated on the Swahili coast and remains popular on both islands.
