    The place is simply amazing. I like the authentic stability dishes as well as other offerings. I had pilau and it was well done. The potion was not much but made up for it in quality. Other people had other dishes and said good things about the arosto and ugali beef. The Shawarma wasn't given 5 stars, but since I did not have it, I will leave it at that. The ukwaju juice was also great. Very well done, not overly sweet. The price is mid upper. Not very expensive, but also not cheap. A plate of pilau for 450 is not little. I would recommend and will definitely be going back

    Nice ambience and awesome location (very easily accessible). I would like to visit again and enjoy my favorite swahili dishes. Best times to go is around 12pm to 3pm you would get all dishes available.

    The ambience is cool and the food was really yummy. I had the Pilau and it was the truth, very authentic. Mahamri and mbaazi reminded us of our Mombasa breakfast and it was amazing. The service was great but a bit slow but our waiter was superb and reassuring. Safe to say it's our new Swahili food fix spot

    Perfect reason to leave the city and its colored rice. I had pilau legit. The family next to me was having Biriyani that looked as if it came straight from Tarboush.. n decided to order the same to go.

    Been here thrice and each time I'm disappointed. First time, food wasn't tasty at all despite their hype that they have authentic Swahili food. Second time, had biriani. The rice was completely undercooked. No cold drinks or ice cubes were available despite the afternoon heat. Third time, tried breakfast. I couldn't be served black tea or coffee because there wasn't any clean water to prepare it with. Also no breakfast accompaniments were ready even though it was 9.30am.

    Great ambience and friendly staff. I went there with quite an expectation on Sunday 6feb lunch salivating to have biryani. Well presentation was great. Born and brought up in Mombasa kilifi, to me the biriani was just normal rice and extra yellow food color. Not the right mixture of color. Why have dhania leaves in biryani rice? Nilikosa utamu wa kunawa… the sauce was really not biryanis. I struggled to finish the meal and felt ashamed to return it. Honest review and no return for me. It’s a place waeza punga hewa

    A simple but amazing place to hangout with friends, family and loved ones. The food is excellent and affordable. I had a great time eating shawarma. I recommend this place to anyone who wants freedom from the crazy city eateries.

    We stopped by the restaurant with my family on a Sunday morning around 10am for breakfast . We ordered masala tea, mahamri, mbaazi and viazi karai. The food was not that great and tasty. The potatoes tasted like they were just boiled and the ukwaju sauce provided and the coconut sauce were tasting off and nothing close to coastal cuisine.

No inspections carried out for the pool, many hazards observed that can cause harm to swimmers. 4. No Covid-19...
