    At first glance you'll think it's a bit pricey, but the portions are big. This is some really tasty food with a lovely vibey atmosphere. We had some live music play and while quite loud it creates a great party vibe. Food takes a while but only because it is prepared fresh. Definitely coming back to this one. Such a lekker holiday feel and you end up walking out relaxed. Try the R&R, it had quite punch!

    What a terrible experience we had on Christmas day. Food took over 2hours to come. When it did it was cold and raw. Everything was. There was no owner to assist and no manager. Only when we were leaving did a "so called" manager approach us. The kitchen was in absolute state. All bad reviews given just get an automated response. Do you even know which staff members were on duty etc. No apologies were given to us by any staff member. The video and pictures I posted got removed. I wonder why, no worries I am taking the footage directly to the health department. Good luck to this place

    To be honest the food was a little disappointing. For a Mozambican restaurant I expected great flavor on my Espetada and wings but the signature spice used on the meat didn't have that mozambican flavor. It was a little off. They need to improve on this. The waiters were so kind and diligent.The restaurant decor is beautifully designed to mirror a restaurant on a beach in Mozambique, totally enjoyed that.

    Interesting experience. Probably one ot the most authentic in the Chameleon village. Had to try their best selling chicken and prawn and additional some Mozambiquen chicken curry.

    Our family decided to have Christmas lunch here. The food was cold, undercooked and the prawns had no actual meet in the shells. Waited 2hours for our food. Needless to say everything was sent back to the kitchen. They have zero pride and the health department needs to inspect their kitchen. It was filthy.

    What a disaster we decided to have Christmas lunch at the restaurant. Walk in lovely vibe. Service extremely bad waited to order food was then ordered and yes they were busy so we sat enjoyed the music, conversation but after waiting 2hrs went to find out what the problem was it was mayhem in that kitchen order had not even been processed after lotsnof fighting the food arrived in batches cold unappealing prawn shellsnin stead if prawns the whole thing was a disaster. The kitchen area was filthy. Of which I have pictures.

    We have been here a few times before and enjoyed our meals therefore we chose to support this restaurant for our Christmas lunch - what an absolute disaster. took over an hour just to get drinks - apparently the bartender was not at the bar for a while- all incorrectly served and some didnt even arrive :-( the waitress seemed highly confused - took our meal orders which arrived 3 hours later and that too only because we kept going to the untidy filthy kitchen - cold, tasteless and disappointing. We took our helper with us to enjoy Christmas lunch and THE MOST HEARTBREAKING MOMENT was when ALL OUR FOOD EVENTUALLY ARRIVED and hers didnt - the waitress was all over the place - didn't know what to do and then brought her a piece of chicken on a plate with no garnish no side nothing!!! We booked here because you were open for the day - you seemed to have sufficient staff - we drove over an hour to get to you in the rain on Christmas and received THE MOST PATHETIC UNAPOLEGETIC SERVICE EVER!!!!
