Why Travelers Love Tatavu Grill
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
We had an incredible dining experience at Tatavu Grill & Bar! The short rib was absolutely melt-in-your-mouth delicious – perfectly cooked, tender and bursting with flavor. The presentation was beautiful, and the portion size was generous. The staff were warm, attentive and made us feel genuinely welcome from start to finish. The atmosphere is relaxed yet stylish, with a lovely view that made the whole evening feel special. Highly recommend Tatavu Grill & Bar – we’ll definitely be back! We had a lite meal here on our last evening after a very unsuccessful visit to a restaurant in Port Denaru. Christine seated us, and Lavina served us. Lavina was warm and delightful, she gave great service. The food was generally very good, we only took a couple of entrees and they were delicious. The live band was fabulous, I wish they played to 10pm as it was a Saturday night. We had a huge group dinner at Tatavu, and James was incredible – friendly, attentive, and completely on top of everything. Every dish we had was fantastic – the fish was a standout, and the steaks were a huge hit with the gents. We also dined here casually using the poolside menu, and the service was consistently wonderful every time. Tatavu has a relaxed but premium feel and quickly became one of our favourite spots to eat during the trip. A must-visit if you’re staying at Sheraton or nearby.

We had such a beautiful dinner at Tatavu tonight. The restaurant atmosphere is stunning. We sat with our feet in the sand,watching the sunset and the kids running back and forth to the fire show that was on the beach nearby. My husband is gluten and dairy free due to allergies and they were able to cater for that really well. We ate the fish meal and it was so yummy and the kids had colouring and a good range of options to choose from. What made this night truely special was the amazing staff who knew we were visiting fiji for my 40th birthday. The staff sung Isa lei to us on our final night in fiji and it was the most beautiful singing, it was very moving. I will never forget it. Thank you so much to all of you for your kind hospitality. We will definitely be back next time we are in fiji. Vinaka

I Ate here on quite a few occasions while staying at the Resort for 10 days. Lunchtime and for dinner also. They have a large selection on offer. Great atmosphere being able to sit outside in the warm weather. They also do great juices and cocktails. Staff are always happy and helpful.
