The best restaurants Madagascar

Incontournable, the Incontournable café, has lovely rooms around a swimming pool but, above all, a beautiful terrace on the banks of the river to taste local specialities with the backdrop of the dhow parade that goes back to fishing or go out. Guaranteed fresh products: lots of crab, roasted shrimp, sea skewers, sole sole or barracuda steak steak. The hotel also offers fishing trips to the bulk.

Malagasy Reunionnaise, an assistant nurse by training, passionate about cooking since the beginning, Nanou returned home in 2015 to launch her table d'hôtes. His cuisine, simple and efficient, composed only of fresh products and flavours drawn from French, Reunion Island and Malagasy cuisine, is a delight for regular customers in the area. Everything is homemade, including ice cream, juices, yoghurt. And there are few tables and little or no stock, it is cooked in the morning for lunch, so first come first served!

Small ndaxté in the water, we serve fish of the day and lobster. The hotel is a great place to stay.

In the most stylish youth hostel in Nosy Be, up on the roof terrace, in the urban chaos of Hellville, but in the calm of a grand street, it is a great place to sip a cocktail, drink a little foam, snack on a skewer. We are in the shade or in the open air, with a low angle view of the life that surrounds us. Cooool as a landmark for frequent travellers

In the village of Ambohimanjaka (on the RN 207 exactly on the RN 7), the Hotely Miadaniary is a very popular stopover of the brousse and residents travelling with their own car, facing the rice fields. Food 100% local.

The restaurant of the guesthouse, on the ground floor on the street, is a delight for low-budget travellers. It's simple, quality and copious. Always a good atmosphere, and enough to make travel friends.

It is in the beautiful setting of the historic garden of Andohalo that the chef Henintsoa Moretti has installed her restaurant. This woman overflowing with energy and desire to share her passion travels throughout the country to find the recipes of yesteryear and revisits them. It is thus a traditional Malagasy cuisine that she and her team present to us. The plates are refined and all the dishes are really tasty. The reception is neat, the interior room pleasant and the garden a real paradise. One of our most beautiful Malagasy gastronomic experiences.

Pourquoi Pas" is a small restaurant in Tana with only a few tables, where regulars, both Malagasy and vazaha residents, meet to enjoy this beautiful French cuisine with Malagasy flavors. You can taste for example duck legs confit, wild boar stew, pan-fried zebu liver, morel mushroom steaks, smoked shark carpaccio or zebu tongue with spicy sauce... In short, the " Pourquoi Pas ! " is a real Lyon Bouchon that will delight the fine palates.

Based on a well-established concept in Brazil (churrasqueira) or Nairobi, Kenya, this restaurant offers meat at will: caramelized pork, pineapple, ribs, lamb chop, poulard, chicken gizzard, very good zebu in all its forms, crocodile, boar, snake.... Nice: you are given the flags of the nationalities present at your table, which you must "lay down" when you are no longer hungry. The whole is correct, very trendy, the service a little outdated at times. To try for the concept and if you are a carnivore first!
