It is good place to have a dinner.
Boys night out in the laid back, kids friendly and safest environment of the Dar Es Salaam Market backyard just off VIVA & HUHURU Heights towers. Highly recommended, best fresh ingredients both pizza and burgers. Superb welcoming by the whole staff and asante Sana Manage Fabian and co founder Hossein !
I love the unique design of the place, the carefully thought out details in everything from sitting arrangements to flowers to furniture and internal decor- if really makes for quite a relaxing atmosphere. But the best part is the food of course which is finger-licking good, the juice bar options are a must have!
Amazing and unique restaurant concept! I highly encourage people to visit this place. From the minute you park till you walk to your table and sit, you are in awe by the decor, lighting and giant trees which make a huge component of the restaurant. The food was amazing, along with the passion mango juice. We were three people and ordered 6 burger sliders, and 2 pizzas (Tarangire and the boma) with the potato wedges. Everything was amazing. And their sauces just enhance the flavours even more. There’s a play area for kids with a slide, swings, trampoline and a blackboard. The waiters are very friendly, all with a smile on their faces. They have a button to call for the waiter, however the system wasn’t working that day. Budget about Tsh 20k - 25k per person. Definitely worth to check out and bring your family here!
Always loved the burgers at BURGER 53 and now this new location and new menu of Pizza 🍕 Honestly I loved the Changamoto pizza from your menu. Flavours bursting in your from the first bite. I highly recommend this. The combo of fresh herbs and chicken was amazing experience. Keep up the good work Hope to be back soon
This place is one of the most amazing places to be and visit. It is cool and warm place. As the name suggests, it is a real backyard. Having three sections.... juice bar, B53 and the banda, makes the place one of the place worth your time to visit and enjoy cool music. Above all, the food is worth and total value for your money. The burgers are exactly the same... the best burgers in town. Pizzas are very different from all places you've had in any restaurant you have visited. They have the best pizzas with excellent toppings and the dressing is just perfect and yummy. Mwendokasi chicken is to die for plus they have wild chicken (same as the wild wings but this is whole spring chicken with the same recipes of wild wings). Their mocktails are so good and my favorite is strawberry heaven. The service is amazing and on point, something which you can miss from all other restaurants in Tanzania. The owners have wonderful approach to all customers something which has been imbued to their stuff. They are keen to detail and it is one of the best places you can feel and be at home away from home! Feeling that you can't visit the place? You can make an online order by calling them or download their application on either app store. Now they have integrated with Bobo- Play And Learn, making the place as more fun as anyone could want and making availability for kids to have fun and learn while the parents are enjoying "Stress Free Zone" If you haven't visited the place, it is a nigh time to come! Thank me later
We Visited in the Backyard restaurant for my niece birthday dinner. We stayed outside and enjoy the fresh air😊.The workers there have just the right balance of friendliness and efficiency. And made certain that we had everything we needed. The food was fresh, properly prepared and a great value for the price. We loved those mwendokasi chickens and pizzas they were so delicious 😋 my niece enjoyed it and was so happy on her day I can’t wait to taste their food again😋🤤 We highly recommend it.
This place is my go-to for burger cravings – they've never let me down! Their burgers are always top-notch. I'm eager to explore their pizza, wings, and choma section next. I hear great things about them.
Its very cozy, it had a very good background music and chill for a evening date❤️
The Backyard is one of the best places to relax and enjoy good food in Dar es Salaam. The atmosphere is calm and beautifully designed — lots of greenery, open space, and a cozy outdoor setting that makes you forget you’re in the city. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the service, while sometimes a bit slow during busy hours, always comes with a smile. The food is delicious — especially the chicken dishes and pizzas, which are fresh, flavorful, and nicely presented. Portion sizes are generous and worth the price. It’s a great spot for both family gatherings and casual meetings with friends. The place feels safe, clean, and well-managed. I also liked that it’s divided into different sections, so you can choose whether you want a quiet corner or a livelier area. Overall, The Backyard offers an excellent balance of good food, relaxing vibes, and professional service. Highly recommended if you’re in Dar es Salaam and looking for a nice dining experience.
