What people are saying
Fatso Food in Mutare's CBD serves home-style Zimbabwean dishes at lunchtime prices. Nathanel (June 2022) called it “One of the few places in Zimbabwe that still do proper Zimbabwean meals”, and Takudzwa (November 2022) liked that “They cook without spices just good well prepared food”.
Not everyone rates it the same. Alishah (January 2025) had the chicken stew and found “The gravy was really salty”, adding “The sadza wasn't that good either” and calling it more of a quick lunch spot than a destination for quality Zimbabwean food. Calma (June 2023) still found it “Clean and good place to have sadza with cooked relishes” at affordable prices.
Tendai (January 2026) left a handbag with cash inside on a visit and credited the staff who called to say it had been found safe, enough to promise becoming a loyal client. Fatso Food is open daily except closing slightly earlier on weekends.
