Customer Reviews
Restaurant with magnificent view of water. A must visit place if your staying in Douala. Safe and max 15 min driving from city. A quite place to spend evening with friends or special friend😉. Staffs are polite but it will be a challenge to order food if you're not speaking French. We had beers and French fries.
This is one of the most famous restaurants on the river Wouri estuary. It offers some delicious seafood and grills. The restaurant is well designed with a long pier extending into the water to offer a very romantic seating. You would also appreciate the photo opportunities it offers, with the river flowing below and fishermen sailing past. Best visiting time is in the afternoon and early evening. The woodwork is now very old and needs intensive repairs to give it back it's quaint and luxurious feel.
Lovely place on the board of the river with terrace on a pier over the river. It must have been beautiful but is clearly run down. Badly needs maintenace, No lobster as in the previous review, just fish and chips of good quality. Pity that the place is so neglected.
great place for eating roasted fish but environment needs upgrade .fish is perfect but environment needs lots of work . it could be lots better i suppose . you could get u fish and eat home you will enjoy it
