We stumbled into Pescador Restaurant more or less by accident, as the place we had initially tried to eat at was fully booked. Pescador was the nearest alternative. Because it was pretty full, too, the waiter asked as if we minded to wait upstairs in their bar until a table became available. No problem for us, as we felt like a drink and weren't in a rush. In the end, we ended up staying and even dining in the small, comfy bar with a decent selection of drinks and a popular snooker table. It all looked more appealing to us than the rather packed verandah and indoors eating area. Despite being away from the real restaurant, both the service and food were good (we had Prawns and Calamari – the menu isn't particularly big, so don't expect anything ordinary) and the evening was a pleasant surprise.

We came here recently to see if after our trip of a year ago it was still really good. The last time we came the town was pretty empty due to the troubles on the road, and a lot of places had let their standards drop with a small skeleton staff keeping things going. Not Pescador. It was as remembered. Nothing has changed. Best prawns in Vilankulo. The staff are also great, and They just has a really good ambience to go with the awesome food. From what we could see the accommodation is also good and it is pretty central. The peri peri sauce that comes with the prawns should be an export, they would make a fortune....We ate a whole bottle! Do yourself a favour if you are in town and check it out, it is a winner.

We entertained some friends over dinner.
We like the venue because of the friendly service, but feel that it's claustrophobic because of high walls and no view. It's best described as Sandton near the sea!
Dinner was served around the pool the two salads the wives had were amazing
We agreed that the curry that my guest and I both had was good except for the portion which was very small and we both felt hungry after finishing the meal
The biggest down side was the music that we had to share that other guests were playing while swimming - on a few occasions we had to ask for it to be turned down.
