The food situation in Fiji is a little hard to explain. If you've checked out any of the accommodation on this website, or on others, you'll see there is always an extra cost of a meal plan, a lot of the time it's compulsory. Most of the hostels (and some hotels) include 2-3 meals a day. There is a menu with a few options, or a buffet style meal, it just depends on where you stay.
I didn't go to any specific restaurants; here I will explain the food situation and which islands had the best food. There are some resorts that will have top restaurants, you can go travel to them to enjoy a meal. I'll explain some places that are worth a special visit.

This pizzeria and bar is an absolute must see if you are staying in the Mamanuca Islands or on Viti Levu.

It's good for all ages, families were there and enjoying the pizza and snorkeling around. It can also be a party place, and nice area to meet other travelers.

You will need to make a reservation, we were able to get a spot the night before but when we wanted to go back it was booked for the next 2 days.

​
**Note: a lot of hotels have a snack menu available to order from, these are not part of your meal plan.
