What people are saying

Bolima Family Restaurant in Mutare's Utopia suburb has built a following on its prawns and its atmosphere. Taurai (October 2025) called them “Tastiest prawns I ever ate”, and Rumbidzai (October 2025) agreed they were “Best prawns I have tested so far”, adding that pets are welcome. Ngonidzashe (June 2025) ordered grilled bream and fried rice and declared it “Mutare's best”, with credit going to the bar man's cocktails too.

Reviewers keep circling back to the setting and the staff. George described the meals as consistently at “the right temperatures” with waiters who are “passionate” in a quiet, spacious room, and Carol (June 2025) singled out the braised purple cabbage and sweetcorn for its colour. A rarer note came from Tafadzwa, who found the food merely okay and suggested the venue invest in a name sign at the gate and work on its overall appearance.

Bolima opens Monday to Friday 09:00 to 20:00, Saturday until 21:30, and Sunday from 12:30, with free parking on site.

“Food was okay. Opportunity to improve on overall appearance and ambience of the place, maybe invest in a name sign at the gate as well.”
