My favorite place to eat in Livingstone. Pizzas are very tasty (which doesn't happen often in Africa), and prices are decent. Its nice atmosphere, and very pleasant staff. Owner is nice guy as well and we enjoyed talking to him.

I had the Oreo flavor. The staff was friendly and kind. They have inside seating to get away from the beaming sun. I’d go everyday if I could.

Cash only. Good food and delicious gelato. The main restaurant area is through the entry way in a separate little building, but the food was great and they did spicy food very well. But go for the foreign dishes, the local dishes were not nearly as appealing and I ended up sharing my dinner as a result.

We were surprised to taste delicious Gelato here and it was very delicious! Original Italian Gelato in Livingstonre, Zambia, how cool is that?! We also ate dinner here (pizza and BBQ selection) which was just wonderful! I highly recommend this place!

The service and food was fantastic! The pizza I think is the best I have had in Zambia. Th owner is extremely friendly and really nice to interact with. The ice cream is my favorite in all of Zambia. I tried many items on the menu and they were all good. The quarter chicken is very tasty. The service was quick and the restaurant has a nice ambience. I went there many many times and never got tired of the food (I always wanted to go back again). I also had a traditional Zambian meal and it was amazing. The prices are very good. I am back in Lusaka and went to my second favourite gelato place and all I could think about was the gelato from livingstone while i ate it (it didn't compare). Very highly recommended!

This was our guest house weekly spot for gelato and Wednesday’s BOFO pizza, two pizzas for about 6 bucks, talk about budget friendly. They offer variety of menu options, however we mainly came for the pizza. Great spot for a large parties. Perfect location. Great customer service, the owners & staff are very profession yet friendly & personable, I really enjoying chatting with them each time I came in. They do not accept credit/atm cards.Da Canton’s will always hold a special place in my heart! We were in Livingstone volunteering, most volunteers were teaching and I was volunteering at an elderly facility. Some of us wanted to host pizza parties for our students and elderly residents, the owner happy helped make this possible by honoring his BOGO pizza deal outside the day it’s normally offered and without the normal regulations. He was so happy to help and express his gratitude to help us create an experience that many of the students and elderly had never had before.

Love this place! The pasta and pizza is awesome. The food comes quickly and it is an open kitchen so you can see it all being prepared.We went there for a nice change to local food and then went back another 2 times! The pasta with 4 cheeses is to die for as is the bacon and chilli pasta.The chicken swarma pizza with added bacon
