One Star ⭐ | Extremely Disappointed – Food Poisoning Incident
I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience after dining at The Backyard Lounge Fanabe. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a relaxing evening turned into a nightmare.
We visited the restaurant yesterday 25/09/2025 and both ordered the chicken wrap. Within a few hours, we began experiencing severe stomach cramps, nausea, and vomiting — classic symptoms of food poisoning. After ruling out all other possibilities, it’s clear that the meal we had here was the cause.
While the ambiance was nice and the staff were friendly at the time, none of that matters when your health is compromised. I was tempted to contact the restaurant to inform them and express my concerns, but we’re on a flight back home this morning and we really don’t have any energy for it.

Manuel was gracious, attentive and very friendly and the 2 guys making cocktails were the best I have seen they obviously enjoy their work and make the best cocktails I have ever had. I highly recommend a visit the ambience service and the drinks are exceptional. They also have very good entertainment each evening so kick back and chill out in...
