Zanzibar Garden

4.6(77 reviews)

About

Zanzibar Garden serves Zanzibar as a restaurant set in Paje, Tanzania, on the island's south-eastern coast. The venue draws a steady following, shown by a 4.6 out of 5 average across 77 reviews.

That score reflects how guests respond to the kitchen, and the setting in Paje places it within reach of the island's main resorts and towns. Paje sits on the coast road, so travellers moving between Stone Town and the southern beaches pass close by. The review count of 77 gives a clear picture of the restaurant's standing among visitors and locals alike.

The website, https://www.thegardenzanzi.com/, offers further reference for the restaurant. Paje itself is one of the nearby places that frame a visit, alongside Jambiani and Bwejuu. Stone Town, Nungwi, Kendwa, Kiwayu and Matemwe sit elsewhere on the island, giving a sense of how the south-eastern coast relates to the rest of Zanzibar.

Pilau, biryani, urojo soup and octopus stew are common dishes on both islands, and they give a sense of what to expect from a kitchen in this part of Zanzibar. Ferries and flights from Dar es Salaam serve both Zanzibar and Pemba, and light aircraft link the two islands, which makes reaching Paje straightforward for those arriving from the mainland. The restaurant's position on the south-eastern coast means it sits away from the northern resorts, in a quieter stretch of the island.
