Fodor's Expert Review Casa Rex Restaurant

Widely considered the best in Vilankulo, this simple and authentic Mediterranean-feel restaurant with wooden tables and chairs, wrought-iron lamps, and tiled floors, overlooks a pool, lush gardens, and the beach and sea beyond. They have a good wine list; try the Portuguese white Vinho Verde (young wine) and local beers. The seafood is superb: crayfish, line fish, prawns. Or tuck into the spicy peri peri chicken. Little dishes of local delicacies and freshly baked bread are gratis with every meal. The menu is local Portuguese/Mozambique. The chef will also whip up a vegetarian meal for you on request.
