1. Marlin Restaurant
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By Chanda C - Brisbane, Australia
Absolutely the best steak I have had in a very long time!!! Went to Marlin for a family dinner and it was absolutely fantastic. Great energy in the restaurant, a really good vibe and excellent customer service, special mention to Gibson who looked after us very well and the portions are generous which was a nice change!! I would definitely recommended the Steak Mushroom and the Pepper Steak, also there was a lovely spread of fresh self service salads. We look forward to coming back to!! :)

Rhapsodys Lusaka is a well established restaurant/wine bar, since 2004. Our delicious meals will explode your taste buds. Check out our large selection of wines and cocktails for a great experience the Rhapsodys way. We are a great venu for that quiet dinner for two, or simply just drinks with friends.

I was part of a group of 15 to Rhapsody's earlier this month and was so pleased we chose this place. Customer service was excellent and they were well able to cater for the demands of such a large group. I tried the Pork Ribs, a delicacy for somebody who is living in the UAE.
The desert was phenomenal as well, I tried the Twisted Sister but the others in the group were equally impressed by Death By Chocolate. Great atmosphere and amazing food!

We had 2 meals at this restaurant, the first was dinner. What I really remember was the great large fresh crispy salad! We also enjoyed the thin crust pizza. I found the service and servers serious and not overly friendly, but the good food made up for it.

opposite to FNB Bank
Reviewed By David H - Saint Louis, Missouri
When traveling in East Africa, good Thai food is not something I have come to expect to find. Chang surprised me with good Thai food. I tried several dishes including a delicious fish in red curry sauce. Service was excellent and attentive. Highly recommended for those travelling in Lusaka.

Eat authentic Zambian and African food with the locals, enjoy Caribbean food including Jerk Chicken and Caribbean goat curry. Try our wood-fire pizza, gourmet burgers and extensive vegetarian options including our eggplant and haloumi burger. Get ready for the warm Livingstone hospitality and a good time in our candlelit leafy courtyard. Look out for our traditional dancing nights!! See you there!!
Reviewed By Stefan-12345 - Cape Town Central, South Africa
We visited as group of 16 pax. We were well received and service could not be faulted despite the large group. Very friendly and efficient.
Menu has so many options ranging from traditional cuisine to ‘normal’ food.
Portion as mentioned in other reviews are really big. We from ZAR and know for big appetites. Almost no one could finish their food. Maybe not so well presented and varied reviews re taste but all in all good experience at a local restaurant.
Live Jazz musos was great touch.
7. Ocean Basket
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 233 reviews
Reviewed By Chong A
We wanted seafood but wasn’t sure as Zambia is landlocked. Hotel staff recommended Ocean Basket. We had a taxis to take us there and back for $10.
We were not disappointed. The starter calamari was very sweet. The big prawn 12 for 350K(&35) was fresh and succulent. The fish was ok, and I had a bottle of white wine and juice for my wife,
Total bill was $60! Back home the wine alone will set me back by that amount.
You could spend less if you order the platter. See my photos

Reviewed By BuchananPlymouth - Plymouth, Devon
We wanted a change so six of us jumped in a taxi and came to this restaurant. The food was excellent and the curry i had was for me quite hot but it was truly delicious. With an array of drinks and the food the bill was remarkably low.
The staff at the restaurant were extremely good and deserved the pooled tip we left at the end. A great evening was had by all.
9. Kubu Cafe

Kubu Cafe serve a good assortment of cafe food, fine coffees,brunches & lunches, cakes and snacks, and delicious dinners. We are fully liscensed to sell alcohol.
Reviewed By Dimitry O - Rotterdam
We stopped here for food. The waitress was a lovely lady, very friendly and service minded. We both ordered steaks. I had to return mine because it was ordered medium done and it got served as being as done as can be done. Since the fries that came along tasted as being fried in somewhat old oil I decided not take the lady up on her offer to get me a new one.
My brothers steak was about 1/3 fat that had to be cut off.
This is a nice place to have a drink with friendly staff, but the food was disappointing.

The best quality of the real Italian home-made ICE CREAM, made only with natural products: - we faithfully follow Italian traditional recipes; - we use selected dairy products; - our home-made ICE CREAM is produced every day in Gigibonta factories according to a balanced nutritional scheme and an healthy and low fat content. Last but not least we are not here for a profit. The shop is in fact part of a project for street kids and the art of making ice - cream was one of the activities taught to the young street boys of Ndola. From there, our four shops were born in order to make CICETEKELO YOUTH PROJECT and the other projects of the Association Pope John XXIII sustainable in the long - term. Come and enjoy, for yourself and for others!
Reviewed By Liezl0123 - Zambia
The ice cream is of top quality and both Crossroads & Foxdale branches deliver great service, but the branch at East Park Mall is really poor. The staff are very rude and when we wanted a table to sit at they had people sitting at tables who weren't customers. The staff refused to tell the people that the tables were for customers only, so we had to go enjoy our treats in the car. Very frustrating.
