Lovely setting. Homemade bread was amazing. Beef potje was very good and non fatty and tender. Sides were tasty. Soup and chocolate bomb pudding were great. Only issue was I couldn't finish the wonderful meal, as I was so full (and I always finish my meals lol). Staff were sweet and attentive and there was traditional music played at low volume to add to the atmosphere. Fantastic evening.

Overall a let down. ...

Tanner_C, Jun 2026

Overall a let down. Positives: staff was very nice, very clean and a nice location Negatives: We assumed this was a cultural experience. For the price we paid drinks should have been included or even transfers. They had a spot that seemed as if entertainment should have taken place but never did. Food was also a let down

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We're delighted that you enjoyed our convenient location, cleanliness, and the hospitality of our team. We are sorry to hear that the dining, entertainment, and overall value didn't fully meet your expectations. We always aim to provide a high-quality experience, and we appreciate your constructive notes. Just to clarify, while The Eatery isn't marketed as a cultural entertainment experience, we always welcome insight on how we can make our guest experiences even better.

Worth the price.

The main meal and desert were excellent. This is an activity for someone famished. Worth every penny.

We arrived at the restaurant just after sunset, in time to quickly look at the stunning grounds beside the Zambezi River before dark. The sunset cruise docked in front of us. We enjoyed a delicious dinner which included soup for the entree and really good panna cotta for dessert along with the Potjie pot with accompaniment dishes. A very generous dinner which we could not finish. The beef Potjie and chicken Potjie both very tasty. We would definitely recommend this experience if you are in Victoria Falls and have a night free! Take some insect repellent as being close to the river, you will need it! We saw 3 elephants 🐘 walk right into the grounds in front of us before we left 😊

Everything was perfect food and the environment but please you must consider some music please, cool music will be nice🙏

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Thank you so much Andisiwe for the review and you will be happy to know that we are actually working on the cool background music that will be playing The Eatery. This will enhance the ambience without taking away the natural aesthetics.
