We came here 15 years ago with kids. This time just a couple we remembered how good it was and werenât disappointed. Plenty of knowledgeable staff, quick service, absolutely GREAT food, cold beer, lots of choice for non seafood eaters like my husband who enjoyed beef curry and I loved my delicious grilled snapper. The atmosphere is what clinches the deal for what must be one of the best restaurants in Vanuatu . Lights, world flags, the mains and yachts meters in front of you in the open air restaurant. Nice live music, that guy has a great voice, and just ticks every box. Well done! Located not far from the grand hotel and casino on the waterfront

What a fantastic location, right on the harbour edge amongst the yachts. Our fish and chips was OK. The fish was a bit tough. Iâve had better meals on previous visits. No problems with overcharging and the bill was printed from their System.Dear RagdadThank you for your feedback. I was sorry to read that your fish and chips was not upto standard. Thank you for confirming that the bill and charging was ok. We have been having problems with our POS system and it takes time to obtain replacements from Australia.

Firstly, the service was good and the staff did a great job. The setting is great and we appreciated the comfy chairs to relax in after our meal. We found the food was very expensive and tasteless. One of us had the green curry which was nothing like green curry, more watery than curry. Another had the prawn rissotto which was more like fried rice. The entree was 1200vtv for a few small pieces of polenta. We spent over $110AUD on 2 mains, 1 starter and 1 beer.

Mostly I agree with other reviewers about the food and location. But I did have a bit of a problem with the atmosphere. There was live music but it was far too loud meaning that everyone had to speak loudly to be heard. With everyone speaking loudly it was hardly a relaxing atmosphere.The other problem we had was on arrival. There were 5 of us and they said they didnât have space despite the fact that there were three empty tables for two right in front of us. After some discussion, they agreed to push two tables together and seat us there. How hard was that? But clearly, they didnât want to make this tiny extra effort to accommodate us.HI Ron, thank you for your review and nice comments about our food and location. Im sorry the atmosphere wasn't to your liking. We were fully booked on the day you arrived as most of our Sunday lunches are now as our live music on a Sunday is very popular. As reviewers will see we are very accommodating with all guest and visitor requests but we do point out the tables you mention were available were the side tables in the entrance to the restaurant which we are an issue to rearrange easily without disturbing others. Reservations in advance are recommended but we will always do our utmost to find a table for anyone who comes to visit us and it is rare to turn anyone away.Im glad we found room for your group and if live music isn't your thing then Saturdays are also a very popular day at Tamanu as well and would be very happy to welcome you then.Thanks again for visiting Tamanu and experiencing our restaurant and do hope to see you back againBest regardsGlen
