Known primarily for its thin crust pizzas, Paradiso is a great choice on the busy strip for a low-key, great value meal. The menu offerings extend beyond pizza to fresh seafood, steaks, salads, and more. A special highlight are the house cocktails.

La Parisienne (Serekunda)

One of Serekunda's best spots for baked goods and cakes is La Parisienne — a pleasant cafe with both in- and outdoor seating areas. The menu strays away from one of a Parisian bakery to include a selection of savoury dishes and snacks, ranging from shawarma to pizzas and sandwiches.
