Fiji Restaurants & Lodging – Viti Levu

The remoteness of the resorts on Viti Levu means that finding stand-alone restaurants outside of large towns can be difficult! The best dining options in Nadi are around Denarau Island, with Indian curries and Asian dishes being the most common.

For a slice of Americana, check out the Corner Restaurant in downtown Nadi. The owner’s other restaurant – Chef’s – is also popular.
