recently dined at Bonefish Restaurant in Fiji and ordered the seafood platter. The food was absolutely beautiful—every single item was cooked to perfection, fresh, and served beautifully. It truly showcased the quality and flavors Fiji is known for, and for that, I was really impressed.
Unfortunately, my experience was overshadowed by poor service from one staff member. While most of the team were welcoming, cheerful, and gave us the warm “Bula” hospitality that Fiji is famous for, one waitress delivered service that left me feeling uncomfortable. She handed me a Coke can with a name written on it which, in the local Fijian dialect, means something offensive. Combined with her attitude, the look she gave me, and her demeanor throughout, it spoiled what had been a wonderful day and a meal worth over $300.
I want to be clear—I was polite and respectful as a visitor to Fiji and to the restaurant, and I don’t believe I did anything to warrant that treatment. It was disappointing, as I had been enjoying myself up until that moment.
Overall, the food and most of the staff were fantastic, but this one negative interaction really took away from the experience. If management addresses this kind of behavior, I think Bonefish could easily be a five-star...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bonefish Seafood Restaurant , a hidden gem nestled in the heart of the city. From the moment I walked in, the warm ambiance and inviting decor set the stage for a memorable culinary experience.
The menu at Bonefish Seafood Restaurant is a testament to creativity and attention to detail. Each dish is a masterpiece, carefully crafted with a perfect balance of flavors and textures. The chef's commitment to using fresh, locally sourced ingredients shines through in every bite
The food was burst of freshness and a perfect introduction to the culinary journey that awaited me. For the main course, I opted for the pan-seared fish, which was expertly cooked to perfection.

Read moreWe went as a group of 9 last night for dinner because we love seafood, but unfortunately, the experience was awful. It took nearly 2 hours for the food to arrive, and when it did, the reef fish was dry, and the bonefish seafood platter was underwhelming. The calamari was bland and just deep-fried, along with a few other things. while the crab came without a cracker, picking fork, or even a water bowl to clean our hands. The salad tasted like it had been contaminated with Dettol or some kind of chemical—absolutely horrible, we all had a taste to confirm this.
Despite having plenty of staff roaming around, the service was terrible. Every time we asked for assistance, they had to go searching for a specific person to help us, even though there were plenty of staff available, just standing around chatting or watching.
I'm not one to leave harsh reviews—usually, I'm generous and provide positive feedback. But this was extremely disappointing and by far my worst seafood dining experience out of many we've had.
Ps; we also saw a few tables complaining, it wasn't just us.
I would not recommend eating here again for dinner. Go to Sails, another seafood restaurant in the area. It's so much...
