    A great restrauant with some nicely manicured garden making the place look very green a beautiful for nature lovers, they've got rooms to host conferences and parties. It's generally a fantastic place to relax while having a meeting, while at it you can enjoy some drinks or meal. The place has a small swimming pool too.

    Not too excited about the food.. my cesar salad took a whole 45 minutes due to an overwhelmed waiter.. ambience is good. They have a live band on Saturdays. For that reason, I will definitely be back

    Food was a 3/5 I had the beef burger with fries and it was underwhelming. The burger patty was soggy almost seemed undercooked and was lacking in flavor and the bun was super tough. Fries were huge and soggy (i like mine super cwispy and thin😄) prices were fair & Service can do better But the ambience is a 5/5.. from the fake flowers and the cute bar upstairs to the art all over the walls and the ambient lighting. That's what sold me.

    Good ambience. Friendly staff. However i would expect they stop having HoHo on food, or have some with none.. It upsets some of our stomach.

    Your service has dipped to horrible levels. It took almost 30minutes to get our soda order delivered(and soda doesn't even need to be cooked!) and even worse time for food orders. And your waiters don't even bother to come to the tables and take orders unless one chases them around(to which they still lie that they are coming and disappear). We had to seek the intervention of one of your supervisors. I have been your faithful client for more than 7yrs but my experience with your property yesterday left a very bitter taste in my mouth. Sad to see such a beautiful establishment lowering standards.

    The ambience offers a brief escape from the busy city life. There's privacy and serenity.

    Make a reservation when you can.If you love red meat, stay away from the beef. The goat/ lamb however is superb.

  • 4/5 Valentine Linette A. 6 months ago on Google • 11 reviews

    It's a go to place when you want a decent meal while privately chatting with friends or coworkers...or when you need to have a serene garden event..

  • 5/5 Essy O. 2 years ago on Google
    Good food but took long to get served. It is spacious venue, clean and great Wi-Fi connectivity.

  • 1/5 Globetrotter 1 year ago on Google
    For starters, the food is delicious. What made me beyond angry is the fact that we were 2 of us. My friend ordered fish and I ordered goat wet fry. The fish was bigger than the table itself. My goat was a whole leg let's say like 2 kgs in a hotpot. Thay need to advice customers about their portions while taking the orders. So we barely did anything to that food. It was food foe 8 people 😤. Go there as a group mainly for meetings. I served enough for me and took the rest home. 😌

  • 4/5 Eucelyn N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great restaurant with well manicured gardens. has a swimming pool though not so big. Perfect for birthday parties. The food was also great. Washrooms are clean too. Customer service was great. WE were served by Nyambura and Catherine.

  • 5/5 Isaac A. 2 years ago on Google
    Will surely visit again. Wonderful garden plus the food is excellent. Very relaxing and family friendly 😊. Kids play area available. Keep it up.

  • 5/5 Samora I. 2 years ago on Google
    Been here for a staff party before, lunch by the poolside then later in the evening we had drinks in one of your bigger rooms. It was awesome. Best party host ever 🎉 meals, ambience...

  • 3/5 Shirley 2 years ago on Google
    The garden is BEAUTIFUL! Such a nice place to meet up and enjoy the green garden. Has an out of town vibe that was lovely. The coffee we were served was very good. The food was good as well. The matumbo was nicely fried and quite tasty as was the beef. The mbuzi was tender and very nicely roasted. The chicken tasted flat, but was well cooked. The service however was the worst I have experienced in a long time. The wait staff looked tired and bored and were unable to connect with our group. They had no knowledge of what they were serving and found it difficult to communicate. Very poor service.

  • 4/5 Joybrenda K. 2 years ago on Google
    The garden is beautifully manicured and the swimming pool is clean and enticing. A great place to come with the kids. Also has a nice lounge and bar for adults. Had chicken dry fry and it was delicious. Good service from the waiters too.

  • 5/5 Linda N. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the ambience. Needed a place to work quietly as I enjoyed my meal and it was provided. Service was great right from reception to the waiting. Enjoyed my meal- lamb chops with lyonnais potatoes and a salad. Their fresh juice is awesome. I especially liked it because it came natural with no added sugars. Come to think of it I was too famished and didn't photograph my meal, next time. Great place to host guests too as they have several group seating areas. Outdoorsy types too are catered to with outdoor umbrella seating spaces.

  • 4/5 Eunice G. 2 years ago on Google
    The venue is easily accessible; the ambiance is very welcoming. The food was very nice and was served within reasonable time. The staff are also very friendly, efficient and fast. The establishment is also keen on keeping the covid-19 protocols. I will gladly recommend this place

  • 4/5 June L. 1 year ago on Google
    Food.... Average I would say. Service.... A bit slow but well, I wasn't in a hurry anyway Atmosphere.... Great. Green Gardens with lots of lush trees and plants. They also have corporate set up for guys wanting to have meetings etc. They also have a well maintained pool. Parking.... Fairly adequate if you go early around 4pm Overall, not a bad spot. I wouldn't mind visiting again though wouldn't go out of my way to get here.

    Two of the staff members were argumentative and refused to honor what was agreed upon. They only followed through after we insisted on the matter. They could have been humble and apologetic knowing fully well that the mix up was on their end. This would have gone much better without the unnecessary attitude and petty staff gossip. The food was amazing though, little but amazing nonetheless. First impressions matter-It was our first time there but after our experience, none of us wanted to come back again. On the bright side, Fridah and some of the other ladies were amazing, she really did her job very well and it made the day much better and smoother.

  • 5/5 Akoko O. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is just lovely, enjoyed every moment of it. From ambiance, to customer service, to pricing and more. A place to visit and unwind as you catch up over coffee and hey, there black kahawa is out of this world; pure taste!

  • 2/5 Harriet G. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was terrible. They have their rules, but the way they communicate them is wanting. We moved to another friendly place.

    Lovely place to have a meal with family and friends. The food is delicious 😋

  • 1/5 Blessed D. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was pathetic. The chicken schezuan might as well have been boiled and served with no salt and it would still have tasted better. I don't recommend it at all.

  • 5/5 joel k. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is very spacious, surrounded by trees that you can't believe you're in Nairobi. The place is very busy with very many people holding their events there. The meals are fresh and very tasty. I would highly recommended it if you have a simple event like after - graduation party.

  • 4/5 Edwin M. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is average, to be honest. But the ambience is quite good. Very nice place to chill, especially on a hot afternoon.

  • 3/5 Isaac K. 1 year ago on Google
    2nd time, as usual the service was great, ambience amazing. The food took more than an hour to be ready due to the lunch hour rush, and would have preferred a listed menu. Will come back

    This is a nice establishment in the upper hill region. Good food, ambience, music. But, the wait staff are slow, and disgruntled. Took my friends for a small party, and couldn't get someone to pack the left over mbuzi, we had to do it for ourselves.
