The Legend of Cardo’s Steakhouse

The early 1800’s witnessed the arrival of Espero Cardo and his herd of some of the world’s finest beef cattle to Fiji. Originally bound for Australia, this shipment of prized animals from the pampas of Argentina was pirated in the Koro Sea by war canoeists of the Tavuteke Clan. The services of stockman Cardo were necessary and so his life and cattle were spared.

The Fijian grasslands proved ideally nutritional for raising the perfect beef beast. Now, four generations later, the perfect steak is available in Fiji’s best little steakhouse of the pacific. Find us in Port Denarau Marina, Nadi.

  • Called by here a couple of times. Great place to have a cool drink during the day or take a meal. We ate dinner here one evening and the meal was everything we had expected. Staff are very attentive and friendly. As they say Position, position, position. This place has it right on the Marina and boardwalk which adds to the atmosphere. Local beer is a great price and the food really reasonable and did not disappoint.

  • My hubby & I just had dinner at Cardo’s & it was awesome! We had a couple of well made gin & tonics, some delish crumbed squid rings that weren’t greasy & a couple of steaks (t-bone for hubby & sirloin for me) served with fries went down a treat! Totally recommend it & we will definitely be back again. Reasonably priced & great friendly service. Thank u
