Faze 3

$ Fodor's choice

A lively choice for Entebbe nights out, and handy for diners en route to the airport for late-night flights, Faze 3 boasts a mind-boggling menu that encompasses a wide range of cuisines: from starters and snacks, light salads, pita pockets, and sandwiches to Continental classics, authentic curries, and meaty feasts served sizzlingly hot on cast-iron skillets. Well-trained staff provide snappy service. Sit on the vast terrace overlooking the lake to enjoy the cool breezes and views. If you're in a large group, it's best to book a table here in advance, especially on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday night and Sunday afternoon, when live music dials up the party vibe.

The Bistro

$$ | Kisementi Fodor's choice

This stylish, modern restaurant in the heart of buzzing Kisementi delivers accomplished fusion cuisine with considerable flair, transforming effortlessly from convivial café by day to happening eatery by night. Customers love the laid-back atmosphere of the Bistro's shaded terrace. Inside, statement decor and white-linen tablecloths create a more formal dining experience. First-class service has long been a hallmark, as has the eclectic menu: crowd-pleasers such as burgers, salads, and grills are presented alongside more exotic noodles, curries, sushi, and tapas. It doesn't stop there: a vegan menu (jackfruit curry, cassava fries); dedicated breakfast menu; gluten-free options; yummy desserts; freshly pressed juices; Arabica coffee and creamy shakes; quaffable wine; and expertly mixed cocktails complete the panoply of choice. Happy Hour (each day has a different theme) runs daily from 3 to 6; a three-piece band entertains diners on Friday night.
