Luluâs
One of the highlights of luluâs is the soft scoop ice cream if the machine is working, in addition they have the usual range of indian, chinese and western food. beware the strange opening hours ! a little bit quiet. the chinese dishes here are greatly disappointing if you expect something that even remotely tastes chinese.
Jacaranda
Âcurrently closed for refurbishment, but many think permanently. donât eat here if you are in a hurry. good standard fare, possibly the cleanest restaurant to be found in africa, and sports spotless bathroom facilities. if you have been on the bus for 10 hours and have been crossing your legs, the choo will seem good enough for the queen. some diners have reported long waits for food. update: it has been closed permanently!
Shooters
Which was known as "bottoms up", is under new management and has a new decor and similar stuff to what the previous owner had. it has a restaurant and also serves food in the bar⦠barbecue there is great and the egg biryani is a favorite. reasonably expensive but great if you are already holed up there for the drink or football or both especially as the food can take several hours to arrive if you are in a large group or its very crowded! indian, chinese and western dishes served alongside tanzanian food.
Twisters
 much the same as shooters except service is slower! twisters has food in addition to drinking facilities vegetable jalfrezi here is good
Sajuuâs Home Restaurant
 it feels homely and you can amuse yourself with tanzanian soap operas âcamilla is having a hemorrhageâ¦â. cheap tanzanian food is available along with the aforementioned indian/chinese/western trinity which is almost the law in this town.
