The Horizon
About
On Zanzibar, The Horizon is a restaurant on Baghani St in Zanzibar, Tanzania, with 325 reviews behind it. The kitchen has built its name on serving diners in this part of the island, and the website at horizonpalace.com carries the details. First-time visitors should expect a settled, established eating spot rather than a newcomer, and one that has drawn a steady stream of reviews over time.
A 3.8 out of 5 average from 325 reviews places it in the middle of the island's dining range, with a clear base of regular support. Getting there is straightforward from Stone Town, and guests staying further out at Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje, Jambiani, Bwejuu, Kiwayu or Matemwe can reach the capital by road before continuing on foot or by taxi. Ferries and flights from Dar es Salaam serve both Zanzibar and Pemba, and light aircraft link the two islands, so arrivals from the mainland are simple enough.
Baghani St is the venue's single address, and the restaurant operates within Zanzibar's Stone Town area. The website at horizonpalace.com remains the venue's own online presence.
The island's Swahili coast setting means taarab music, with its orchestras and sung poetry, remains popular here, and visitors will hear it in the evenings. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba, so wildlife watchers have something to look out for beyond the restaurant.
