    That salad bowl was the perfect detox, straight to the bones, deep into my soul. Loved it โค๏ธ Not featured but also a favorite is their chicken wings platter.

    The food is excellent. Had potato skins for starters and the chef was really generous with the cheese. Enjoyed it. Our mains were great although they took a while to prepare understandably because we went on a Friday evening probably their busiest time. It would be good if they ensured starters came early because the starters also took forever and were served almost the same time with the main meal which beats the purpose. If you're going in the evening book a table near the windows they have bulbs over the tables , otherwise the rest on the inside have no bulbs you'll pretty much be in darkness.

    Parting is such a Sweet Sorrow! We recently enjoyed an extraordinary farewell experience at Ibis Styles - Kilele Nyama Terrace, located at the heart of Westland - Nairobi. The stunning sunset served as the perfect backdrop for the occasion as we sipped on their impressive cocktail selection (Happy Hour starts 5-7pm BOGOF). The service was Friendly and Fast. The ambience was exceptional and the Kilele Nyama terrace was simply phenomenal. Overall, I would highly recommend Ibis Styles - Kilele Nyama Terrace. The selection of music enhanced the ambiance.๐Ÿ’—

    Made last minute reservation for my sister's birthday. The view was lovely, the chicken was super yummy and although fries were our go to sides of choice, the plantains turned out to be everyone's favorite. Our tummies and hearts were full ๐Ÿ™‚ Special shout out to our waiter Allan for the awesome cake surprise and to all the staff on duty for the singing and dancing. It was simply an awesome evening.

    Kilele Nyama: Lovely view. Directly opposite Sky Bar. Good food. Friendly staff. I had some Pork ribs, Lamb chops, Tasty Rice, Ugali, Fried Tilapia fish, Tusker beer and a lot of Jameson Shots. It was really fun.

  • 2/5 Astha S. 2 years ago on Google
    Okay, so.. first sight was a dried up dirty knife lying on the floor, very unhygienic. Second, meat was very dry and fried in old oil. Overly pricey for average food. Cocktails didn't even taste like alcohol, were so not worth the price. Waitress was nice though. Save your money for better places.

    Loved everything about Kilele Nyama! From the wonderful assistants who reserved my partner and I a beautiful spot overlooking the Nairobi night to the incredible food with real hefty portions (unlike most Nairobi restaurants). I asked for a birthday surprise for my girlfriend and was offered an amazing piece that she absolutely loved. I'm glad we chose this restaurant for our final night at the hotel because it was the highlight of our stay. P.S. thanks to Consolata for the great service

    On top of Ibis suites, it has a lovely view, especially at night, and get a glimpse of Nairobi and westlands at night. Their meals are good and worth the visit, the steak was soft and delicious. Impeccable service and friendly waiters and waitresses. The ambience is also lovely and worth it. Keeps a minimum number of visitors, so most seats are empty. You can make a reservation in advance. Highly recommended for meals and great service.

    We went to get cocktails and we were right on time for happy hour, haha! It's an amazing place and the rooftop lounge is even better because we got to catch the sunset and it was beautiful. It's important to mention that the rooftop lounge accommodates smokers and being a non-smoker, it was quite uncomfortable. However, the space inside is also lovely and the service was great!

    Located in Westlands, it's a good place to see the skyline of Nairobi! Ambience and service is really nice. Food is local Kenyan food and as a foreigner I think it's fine.

  • 5/5 Emmah_ a. 3 years ago on Google
    Kilele Nyama at Ibis homes and Styles has a menu to die for their tongue tickling dishes will keep you going for more. The roof top especially is ambient for anyone needing a peaceful time for writing and or having friends, The Cocktails are to die for. Anyone loving the city skyline should visit it for breathtaking scenes day or night.

  • 3/5 Natasha k. 2 years ago on Google
    Had the mixed grilled platter with fries and sweet potato fries which was absolutely awesome. Drinks not so much. We were her on a Sunday during happy hour but apparently happy hour drinks are only served from the bar side and not the restaurant?Weird rule to have but any way the food was good but couldnโ€™t get milkshakes..out of stock apparently!

  • 3/5 Gloria Bashan A. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is on the rooftop of Ibis hotel. Has a very good ambience with a romantic feel but the space is quite small and may fill up quickly . It was a bit chilly especially this time of year. The food took too long to be ready and could have been better especially for the chicken. The bread for the table was quite was nice though. The apple jack was quite nice also

  • 3/5 Rahab M. 1 year ago on Google
    I had always wanted to try this restaurant so my husband and I booked a table here. So to book a table you pay Ksh 4,000 redeemable which okay. The manager was really nice when we arrived but as the evening went on, it became busy and the waiters became extremely busy. We had to wait for almost 30 minutes to get a waiter to take our order for the mains. We then waited another 30 minutes for food to arrive. Food was okay but nothing special. We decided to take away the remainders since we couldn't finish it. We literally had to go find someone to wrap up our food to go. When we asked for the bill, we waited another 30 minutes for someone to bring it. But he left even before we finished paying. We had to carry the bill on our way out to show that we had paid because at this point we were just tired. It's a beautiful restaurant but they have very poor service. I wouldn't recommend.

  • 5/5 Machanule V. 10 months ago on Google
    Hands down best rooftop restaurant I have been to in Nairobi, Legit best panoramic views of Westlands, Nairobi CBD, Upper Hill, And Nairobi landscape in general. The staff are warm, super polite and helpful and go out of their way to ensure you get assistance and you are comfortable They also have a rooftop Bar with a good terrace Excellent dining space, Good food. Even if just for a dining experience, You should definitely visit this space. Looking forward to staying in their rooms sooner enough coz i also believe they are great and won't disappoint PS: Special shout of to Pamela, a staff at the rooftop restaurant who was polite and very helpful

  • 2/5 Boon Sun T. 9 months ago on Google
    Two visits and two very different experiences. First visit, ordered pork shank and it was nice enough to warrant second visit. Second visit, ordered mixed grill plate 2 and it was an disaster. The chicken lacks flavours and dry and the beef ribs were disaster. Look at the video to see how difficult it is to even cut it. in Nairobi for over 5 days and this was one of the worst meal in Nairobi, and most disappointing in Kenya considering the price we pay.

  • 2/5 sharon w. 3 years ago on Google
    The ambience was really beautiful. However, the service was slow and the food was such a disappointment. We ordered the full chicken platter but we got 3/4 chicken. Upon asking, the chef said they serve according to the size of the pieces. The meat flavors were basic; technically all the different meats in the platter were cooked in the same sauce.

    The meat platters here are awesome ( my two year old could bite and chew into almost all meats - very tender and tasty) but the side dishes are even better specifically the plantain.... Mmmh couldn't get enough. The portions are also very generous. The service was exceptional... Very friendly and very helpful waiting staff and hostesses.The ambience is also great.

    The lighting is soothing. It was not loud, you can have a nice conversation over dinner. The view is great, to one side thereโ€™s westlands and to the other side arboretum. Everyone at the hotel was helpful, service was very good. Loved our waitress (Anna). The food was not as great. The portions were good but the meat lacked flavor, was over cooked and dry. Wide variety of drinks to choose from.
