Ang's Restaurant
Ang's is locked up like Fort Knox; this part of Gordons is unsavoury after dark. But it's worth the trip for excellent Chinese food at reasonable prices. The tôm yam soup is just right.
-
Asia Aromas
The Chinese and Thai dishes, and friendly service here are so good it's worth booking ahead to secure an evening table. The Thai prawns with lemongrass and chilli are fantastic. This place is popular with the Moresby's glitterati, cabinet ministers, expats and the well-to-do, so you never know who you'll be sitting next to. Refreshingly, the prices are more sweet than sour.
-
Beachside Brasserie
The pleasant brasserie in Ela Beach Hotel is a good choice for moderately priced food. The pizzas are the best in town. They serve good seafood and a whopping 500g steak.
-
Cellar
This tastefully decorated, softly lit place at the Shady Rest Hotel serves a good mix of dishes including steak, fish, oysters and several Indian dishes. There's a wide selection of good wine.
-
Daikoku
In a feed-off between Ichizen and Daikoku, we narrowly chose this to be the best Japanese restaurant in Moresby - outstanding! The sushi, sashimi and other Japanese favourites are very good. At dinner, chefs will prepare your meal on a hotplate at your table with great skill and showmanship. Also serves lunchtime bento boxes.
-
Ela Beach Cafe
At the west end of Ela Beach, this rustic-looking eatery has coffee, beer and lunches of simple kai.
-
Grand Palace
This is the top spot for Chinese cuisine. Try the yum cha or the beautifully presented steamed whole coral trout.
-
Ichizen
The teppanyaki, sushi and sashimi are expertly prepared, and artfully arrayed on the plate. A delicious lunchtime bento box is also available.

Jepello
Just off Waigani Drive, behind the Interoil Service Station in another dodgy area, is Jepello, Moresby's best Italian restaurant. The fresh pastas and wood-fired pizzas are good, but leave room for the homemade gelato.
-
Mr B Coffee Shop
Quiet and cool, this is a refuge from the filth and craziness of the Boroko streets. Freshly made sandwiches, pastries, light meals and good Goroka coffee.
-
Rattle 'n' Hum Pizzeria
This serves sloppy pizzas in a convivial, family-friendly atmosphere.
-
Restaurant 168
Upstairs is the Restaurant 168 where some interesting Malay and Indian dishes are served - better than the dull surroundings might suggest.
-
Roundhouse Restaurant
For authentic Chinese food, this is pretty good and the lunchtime deals are excellent value. The Sunday dim sum (yum cha) is popular.
