Nice Oceanside Breeze. Lot of European visitors eat here especially in December. I gave 4 star because Steak, Fish or King Prawns. The Veggie Dishes, Spring Rolls, Wings, other shrimp, pizza were all perfect. Good price and value. Because the food we had was so good I feel that when they get the other items back, it would be delicious. The vibe was so wonderful sitting by the beach. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place. Great service and great people. Our food came surprisingly fast for the amount of people there. Plenty of seating.
Stuff is friendly and pretty quick during lunch time but a bit slower during evening. Food always delicious and I end up in this restaurant already 4 times (and still planning to go one more time.As the restaurant is on the beach, you can watch sunset, locals to enjoy beach, you can listen live music…. it’s absolutely amazing.Also they have expresso coffee which is strong and cost just 60 dalasis.Gambian food, fresh fish…just name it. Also good cocktails.Prices are average I would say.
The vegetarian breakfast was good. Scrambled eggs were perfect. Service was the best. Where we sat we could view the ocean.
Thanks to my dear friend Muhammed for his delicious advice. If you want to have a meal accompanied by calm music by the ocean, you can choose this restaurant. You won't be disturbed by anyone. The waiters are polite and friendly. My sensitive stomach approves of restaurant food. You have to wait 30-45 minutes for the food depending on the customer density. It's okay to wait because I lost track of time with the ocean view.
Such a nice place! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. They have many vegetarian food options (take Solomon’s special!) and a wonderful terrace sun beds from which to admire the sunset. The toilets are clean. We will have to come back for the veg English breakfast …
Great Gambian food freshly prepared. also plenty of European-style dishes on the menu. Warm, friendly staff and ice-cold drinks!
This is one of the best places to hang out on the beach. You can rent beach chairs and umbrellas for a very reasonable price.
Lovely food, and location looking right over the beach and sea. More of an atmosphere in the day time but also had a lovely evening meal as well. Good price.
