The restaurant is located in Village Market Mall, one of the malls where you can spend a pleasant time. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you find yourself in a different place with the way the staff welcome you, the decor, and the size of the restaurant. You also get confused about where to sit, inside, outside, or on the balcony. The variety of food and menu between Italian, Indian, Mexican, etc. makes you study the menu for a long time until you choose. With the help of the restaurant staff, you can choose the dish that suits you. We were 3 friends, so the orders were different between Mexican, Italian, and steak. The quality of the food is very high and rich in food and presentation. Note that the meat is halal. We ordered the appetizer and it was not late. The menu consists of 3 menus, one for food, one for drinks, and one for dessert. The place was crowded even though it was not a holiday. The restaurant also provides a birthday service with cake and singing. I wished it was my birthday today. It also provides Wi-Fi and card payment. If you are in Nairobi, do not miss this restaurant
Delicious food and HUGE portions. We loved it so much that we returned here on the last day too. Very friendly staff and quick service. Masala fries were a revelation for me: some of the most delicious fries I've ever tried.

Outstanding Service from Achieng! We had the pleasure of having Achieng as our waitress for the evening, and she was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, her warm and friendly demeanor made us feel welcomed and valued. She was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring that all our needs were met promptly and with a smile. Achieng’s knowledge of the menu was impressive, and her recommendations were spot-on. She made our dining experience seamless and enjoyable, going above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Her professionalism and charm added a special touch to our evening. Thank you, Achieng, for making our night so memorable! We can’t wait to return and hope to be served by you again.
