    Best Italian (Napoli) pizza on the island!! The restaurant and hotel are run by young Italian brothers, whom are so kind and helpful. We asked for Frutti di mari; which wasn’t on the menu and they were more than happy to make it for us! The staff were also super friendly and helpful. 100/10 👏🏽👏🏽 Did I mention the awesome beach view while eating 🤩

    This guys really know how to cook Italian food! Both pasta and pizza are amazing. We had lunch there 2 days, and both days the food met by far one expectations. I recommend taking seafood pasta. Cocktails are also good, a nice way to enjoy an evening. Also, staff is friendly, and the place has some cool views of the sea without being crowded.

    GEO Italian restaurant & pizzeria is by the beaches of Jambiani and can't stress how good the food is. One of the best pizza I've ever had. Even after having a food coma, the ambiance is great I almost slept! The open setting allows the breeze from the sea to flow freely. 5 out of 5. Must visit.

    Wow!! What a surprise to find a real Neapolitan pizza in such a remote place! The pizza was just amazing! Much better than a lot of pizzas you can eat in Italy! Also the service was great and the restaurant is right on the beach. Extremely recommended!!

    Truly it has great food here. The paste was well cooked and a healthy serving size. The pizza was some of the best I’ve had on Zanzibar. The ingredients were fresh and we order it three times we were there! The servers and staff were all friendly and helpful with the families there. I would recommend to anyone traveling there.

    Very nice beach restaurant with excellent friendly (and fast) service and good Italian style food.

    We waited almost 40 minutes before the waitress came and took our order. Only now they tell us that they are out of pizza, clams and prawns. Of course we came to an italian restaurant so we could have nice pizza but amazingly they were out of it. In an italian restaurant? :D it would have been all okay if they would have told us from the beginning so we could have gone somewhere else. Now that they kept us waiting for 40 minutes and then told us, feels very rude and bad service. Otherwise the carbonara my husband took was good and my grilled calamari and octopus (should have been calamari and prawns but they didn’t have prawns either) was okay.

    We randomly passed by this restaurant because another one was fully booked. We ordered different dishes to share, variating from pasta, to pizza, to appetizers. Relatively fast service, good wine and pleasant/friendly staff. Would recommend this place, especially if you had enough of the “local seafood” experience in Zanzibar.

    Delicious Italian food. Kind staff. We had pizza, kids had pasta. They were all good.

    And Rico is a happy and attentive host... lovely guy, great staff and fabulous food. Great sense of humour- highly recommended!!

    Food was great and so was the service. The only negative was they didn’t pit the olives on the pizza. Pizza’s are around 30-35,000 shillings Wine was 10,000 a glass

    Food is absolutely delicious and I guess was the only TV we found that we could watch few World Cup games 😊

  • 5/5 Borsak M. 10 months ago on Google
    The food comes fresh and ready, good food. The service was AMAZING the waiters were quick and understand everything. Ares the dog was really friendly and fun to play with he was my highlight 🤣 the atmosphere is amazing as you can sit outside and look at the beautiful sea/beach or even from inside. The food is authentic, fresh, hot and perfect. I would give 6 stars if possible I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. 👏

    My wife & I had incredible pizza, some of the best pizza I have had in years! The restaurant has beautiful views of the see and super friendly staff.

    My recent visit to GEO, an Italian restaurant right by the beach, left a lasting impression. The Italian pizza served here was remarkably close to the real deal, capturing the essence of authentic flavors. The wine selection complemented the meal perfectly, and the service was genuinely friendly. Even the espresso, a testament to their attention to detail, was a delightful surprise. I'm eager to return to this gem by the beach for another round of culinary satisfaction. Highly recommended for those craving a genuine taste of Italy.

    So random. An amazing pizza place - not by local but global standards - in the middle of a beach... Was such a good experience (ok ate too much and that part hurt), but the pizzas are just yummy. Big recommendation!

    Super restaurant ! :) Nice Italian food with real italian products (guanciale Amazing). Owner really sympatic and also funny dog.

  • 5/5 Alexis M. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are longing for Italian food, this is the place to go. True Napolitan pizzas with tomato sauce worth Northern Italy, European cheese and ham / mushrooms... Incredibly tasteful, much above every other hotels. You even find Italians coming to this restaurant Please do not hesitate to visit the place! Prices range from 20 to 35,000 shillings for pizzas
