Zuri Zanzibar Upendo Restaurant
Tanzania
Upendo is Zuri Zanzibar’s main restaurant, set above the resort with views across its gardens and accommodation. Its Zanzibari styling and open outlook give breakfast and dinner a relaxed island setting. The kitchen serves international cooking with African and Indian Ocean influences. Live cooking brings some of the preparation into the dining experience, allowing guests to watch dishes come together rather than encounter them only at the table. A separate deck can accommodate private events and larger dinner groups. Nearby, Peponi Bar provides benches and sofas for a drink before or after the meal, with a particular emphasis on gin. For guests at Zuri, Upendo acts as a natural gathering place at the beginning and end of the day. Its broad menu and informal atmosphere make it an easy choice across a longer stay, while the resort’s pool and beach restaurants offer different settings when the mood changes.
