Probably the closest you will come to local food - they serve Domada, Benechin, Yassa - all given a European twist and served very well - also the Captain Fish with lime sauce is equally good - service is very friendly and good if not busy. The only downside - very loud live music comprising 90% drumming starts at about 9-ish - this may be attractive to some - but not if you have unimpaired hearing!!!

Captains Table is a restaurant, which is a little different than most, the food is well presented in an outdoor setting, not the hustle and bustle, a very peaceful quiet setting. Captains Table is part of The Bakotu Hotel

Good food, nice setting especially at the street site, were you can watch the senegambia life. (Be early) Only disadvantage the many âmusicâ guys asking for money after theâve obscured the view and spoil the area with there music. Recomended cocktail:Mojito.

The previous positive reviews are 100% correct regarding this small restaurant situated on the busy main highway through Kololi. The restaurant has tables inside and outside in a small sectioned off part of the car park. This area has been tastefully laid out with large plants. The menu has selections of Gambian cuisine, steaks and fish dishes; there is a nice selection of starters and desserts. Cocktails are excellent and probably the best value in Kololi (200 dalasi or £3.30)The fish platter consisting of 4 various sorts of fish/shellfish was terrific at around 700 dalasi (£11), the lobster spring roll starters and lemon sole main course was very good at about the same price for both. Service is first class and swift. Loved it.

We ate at the Calypso four times and also visited for the live music on Sunday afternoon. If you are a guest at the Ocean Bay Hotel next door you will consider yourselves extremely fortunate to have such a fantastic restaurant on your doorstep. The food was delightful and the staff just lovely. Go once and I bet you'll go again.

Reviewed By 158barbaral
We have been visiting NGala Lodge for 20 years and always think of it as a special place where everything is just perfect and all our family see it as a real treat. However it is most certainly not the place it was. We have seen various chefs, owners, management and front of house come and go and although the setting is still lovely nothing else is. None of the choices I made for my three courses were available and the ones I eventually settled for were disappointing. The fish I chose for my main course was over cooked and dry and the pudding inedible. The bill, for The Gambia, was expensive at almost £50 per head. By contrast we visited a tiny and very basic roadside cafe with a friend and had the most superb grilled and marinated gambas with a delightful and carefully prepared salad and home cooked chips followed by the best chocolate brownie I have ever eaten for under £8. NGala used to be a very special place, it no longer is .We are very sorry that your experience this time was not as it has been in the past. Quality supplies are our biggest problem, but that does not excuss us for the cooking standards. I am sorry.
