    Really good food, quick service, affordable buffet. The atmosphere is nice & calm! Good option of drinks. Do not serve alcohol as its a Muslim restaurant. Got a play area for kids. The management is helpful.

    Great food and ambiance. Really enjoyed the place. Its a great place to visit especially with larger groups. One suggestion is choose a table closer to the cooking station service can get a bit slow further out. Recommend

    Food quality is very good. Service is a bit slow, but understandable for the way they serve straight to your table. Make sure to try their fresh juice, its tight up there with the best! Mango&passion cocktail highly recommended. The owner is very delightful and accommodating. They also have a play area for kids.

    No for Me. I do not expect food like this in 2023! Horrible chatpata bbq chicken loaded with cornstarch sauce. Fries very thin. Small portion. I ordered platter for two .looked like a platter for small kids. Mishkakis n chops was tasteless. So No Thanks! Can eat better food at the price of 30,000

    The food at skewers is really impressive, for this reason it's usually crowded and thus a slight compromise is made in service and ambience. I'm not sure when the more quiet days are, weekends definitely aren't lol but the food is definitely worth It.

  • 4/5 irfan v. 1 year ago on Google
    Reasonably good food, but on the bbq, town sides are better tasting. Their Lambchops was really tough to chew, no one could eat it. Could have just been a bad supply, the other varieties were good. Ample of sitting space & great air ventilation. They have a cute swing which my family enjoyed taking photos on. The manager ‘Arafat’ is a cool guy & deserves a raise for his excellent service. Parking is avail outside. The price is pretty decent too. $9 or 20,000tsh per person. Pretty solid deal.

    I have only one word SKEWERZ is mainly about " MEAT" as the poster speaks for itself. We ate rounds of buffet of fried chicken meat, goat and beef. We ate roasted fish meat and vegetables too. Spicy french fries are also available and the ones with mesmerising yellow colour.

    I visited this place yesterday, and I must say, the culinary offerings were outstanding. The overall experience at Skewerz was delightful, ensuring a thoroughly enjoyable time. Highly recommend for those seeking a great dining experience.

    If you are fasting and till 6pm not seated there, your breakfast might be miserable. Atmosphere is fully crowded and services are not well at that point.

  • 3/5 Gamze Ozsahin (. 1 year ago on Google
    They cook nice foods. We mostly choose Bufe for 20.000 TZS for each person. The waiters kept bringing foods and asking, then the head manager came and asked if we are satisfied, we need anything else or there was any problem. But after you go 3, 4 times they change. The waiters don't bring food, you start to call them which is annoying. Because I have two babies that do not allow me to eat nicely. I don't prefer to go anymore. Also they should have DADA for the children park. The park is dark.
