    It's a bit hit and miss here at Fat Mama's (where did that name come from?). Mostly the Dosai are crisp and really well done (I lived in India before, so I know how they should taste), sometimes it looks like the Indian chef has left and someone else is cooking. You don't go here for the ambiance, but for the food.

    I had heard good reviews so I went. But I think it’s decent, worth the price you are paying. In terms of what’s good; maybe ye starters. I had papri chat which was tasty. But maybe avoid South Indian. Overall okay place, can bring family and if you are keen on Indian food. Covid-19 abs curfew restrictions might be one of the reasons why it was empty. The view however from the first floor is pretty nice.

    Don't you book a room here. They are having a lot of fake pictures on internet. I slept with a pool of water in my room and the humidity is asthma provocative... see attached what they don't show. Very dirty and they denied refunding. They don't deserve a star. Don't go here!!!

    Amazing vegetarian dishes. Affordable with generous servings. "Fat Mama" is a wonderful host herself. The service and restaurant set-up is just okay, but all things considered it is a wonderful place.

    Food was delicous!!!! Highly recommend to anyone who like indian food. I came with friends to this location multiple times and it was delicious everyone loved the food. Food takes awhile but thats likely because they make everything fresh.

    Fantastic southern Indian food. Vegetarian and realitively inexpensive. Anju is a delightful host and the kitchen does great home delivery service . Best cashew curry for a long time. Vegetable cutlets to die for too.

👍👍 AMAZING RESTAURANT IN KIGALI! Reminds me of Chipotle back in the States. Such high quality food and taste at a amazing price. The average meal is only around $6 for a fantastic burrito. The view is also great from their upstairs area. Will definitely be back!
