You won't find much truly Namibian food (although local venison, seafood, and Namibian oysters are superb); the cuisine is mainly European, often German, though international variety and standards increasingly are found in the larger towns.

You won't find much truly Namibian food (although local venison, seafood, and Namibian oysters are superb); the cuisine is mainly European, often German, though international variety and standards increasingly are found in the larger towns. Lodges usually serve good homestyle cooking—pies, pastries, fresh vegetables, lots of red meat, mouthwatering desserts, and the traditional braai (barbecue). Because of its past as a German colony, Namibia is known for its lager. South African wine, which is excellent, is readily available.
The in-house restaurant at the Flamingo Villa Boutique Hotel, with a stunning view of the lagoon, is the best fine-dining establishment in Walvis Bay. With exceptional attention to detail and service, the menu combines flavors of Europe and the Mediterranean with Namibian ingredients. The ‘Flamingo Style’ kapana and seafood platter will have you coming back every night, so will the glorious cocktails out on the bar terrace at sunset. The attentive management of the hotel spills into the restaurant and the chef often comes out to chat with the guests.

If you only have a single night to spend in the capital city, make sure you swing by Joe’s Beerhouse, whether it’s to sample a large selection of local craft beers, savor their generous portions of German and Namibian food, or to marvel at the thousands of pieces of eclectic memorabilia and knick-knacks on display, from stuffed animals and road signs to antiques and wire art. This quirky Windhoek institution will make for very memorable photos no matter whether you choose to sit indoors or out. Despite the vast amount of people who usually frequent this popular jaunt, the service is fairly prompt. The restaurant also offers a shuttle service for its patrons, which is added to the restaurant bill.
160 Nelson Mandela Ave., Windhoek, Khomas, Namibia
Arguably Windhoek's only true fine-dining establishment—with a price tag to match—Leo's is literally in a castle on a hill. The small chandelier-dazzled dining room has fabulous views of the city and the haute cuisine is both gorgeously prepared and presented. Inside, it's all Champagne and taupe elegance, and sepia prints of early-20th-century photographs of the castle. The seasonal menu is not large but focuses on meat, with a couple of fresh fish and vegetarian options. The wine list is an impressive tome with at least 9,000 bottles available to choose from at any given time.
