What to Expect
Mtotwe on The Chase in Harare gets recommended for its pizza, though service complaints come up often enough to matter. Kundai (2025) called the pizza “one of the best pizzas I've had in Harare” and found the Hungry Huku salad “fresh, vibrant, and packed with a variety of ingredients”.
Slow, inattentive service is the recurring theme. Tadiwanashe (May 2026) said “The service is so slow its actually insulting”, and Leyaine (March 2026) described fetching a menu unassisted and being asked to move because a table was broken, leading the party to leave without ordering. Brighton (May 2026) had the opposite experience, finding the “service was fast and the food was great”.
One reviewer reported a vegetarian order arriving with meat inside, a specific mix-up not corroborated elsewhere. Mtotwe is open 07:30 to 21:00 Thursday to Saturday and 07:30 to 17:00 on other days.

I recently tried the pizza and Hungry Huku salad at Mtotwe, and I was thoroughly impressed. The pizza was perfectly baked with a crispy crust and generous toppings. Each bite was a delightful mix of flavors, making it one of the best pizzas I’ve had in Harare.

I was there yesterday, Friday, 27 February 2026. The service was so terrible. I went there with a friend to celebrate his birthday and I was so embarrassed because it was my idea to even go there. The servers, they didn't even show us to our seats.
★★☆☆☆
The service is so slow its actually insulting. The stuff seem untrained on basic courtesy. If a meal is going to come out late,let the customer know don’t just pretend to be busy and walk around with your head down.

Today I decided to come and support for the first time and simply ordered vegetarian spring rolls. She went to go and ask if they do have and she just punched it in then I came back to add another two spring rolls when they came and I bit into them they were meat.
