    It is nice place to chil in evening after long hours of work. They take positively the feedback. I have been at this place several evenings and I have seen a lot of positive changes from taken feedback. Don't be alone in your corner come and make friends, have some business meeting their and enjoy the most amazing Musoso with a merlot wine or Cabarnet sauvignon or any selection from French wines. Don't miss out some shot of tequila 🤪

    I recently dined at the restaurant today, and I wanted to share my experience. The restaurant's location next to a school made it quite loud, which made it challenging to have a peaceful meal. Additionally, the kitchen's smoke from the woods was quite unpleasant for the customers. One drawback was that the waiters weren't always readily available when needed. On the positive side, I found the prices to be affordable. However, my order of grilled whole chicken took an exceptionally long time, approximately 2 hours, to arrive. Despite the wait, the affordability of the place is a definite plus.

    The place is nice, the owner and staff cares about customers, the food is delicious but very little and dressing need to be improved.

    Great atmosphere, mediocre food. The server and bartender struggled to deliver the cocktail that was ordered. After sending it back twice, I decided to skip my pre-dinner libation.

    Great place for drinks and foods! Lively atmosphere with live performance, hence the 5 star ratings!!! Will visit again next time I'm in Kigali.

    It’s a good place but our orders took more than an hour to be served and we actually had to leave without them. I don’t believe a simple order like chicken wrap should take an hour to be served. It is unacceptable!

    Cheese smells bad. Food is not delicious at all.

    Whether you come here for breakfast or dinner or for some exciting nightlife energy, Ikigai will be a pleasant experience. The staff are friendly and the food is freshly made, and the manager Baraka is a super awesome guy that I’d recommend you meet while here. Thanks for all the awesome nights!

👍👍 This place blew my mind. The menu was so vast my colleague asked the very helpful waiter to recommend both his dishes. Paneer both ways. Tandoori style and then in a dahl. Turns out you can never have too much paneer. Good choice, waiter. I dived in on my own and went for some sort of stuffed potato...

👍 Our stay was comfortable. That being said, I wouldn't stay here more than a couple of days. The location and restaurant are by far the highlights. The food and service was top notch.
