Dhow Restaurant
Dhow Moçambique
A clifftop landmark combining restaurant, bar, pool and gallery, with sunset views of the harbor bridge; ranked first in Maputo on Tripadvisor.
Set in a residence on a clifftop in the city center, this venue combines a Mediterranean-leaning restaurant, bar, swimming pool, café and art gallery. It ranks first among Maputo restaurants on Tripadvisor (4.4). Lobster linguine and crab curry samosas are the signature dishes. The terrace faces the harbor and the Maputo–Katembe Bridge at sunset. Dinner service runs late, and the bar is lively afterward, especially crowded on weekends, so booking is recommended. It is at the upper end of city prices, roughly 2,000 meticais per person or more with drinks. It is a few minutes by taxi from the city center.
