    I known restaurant in kilimani. The food rarely disappoints and always so filling. It's a great family restaurant as they have a good play area for children that is free. The service is just okay, food takes a while but you'll be sure it's fresh. It's great for weekend afternoons (with kids) and also evenings for those folks who hate crowded areas.

    Wonderful place to host events, birthday parties. It's kid friendly during the day with a playground to keep kids busy while you indulge with friends or family over a cold one. One thing that stands out about the place is having individual gazebos where you can have your own thing going with friends and family. Your little Island of fun.

    It is a very good place.. One could say an hidden gem. The place had a very good ambience and awesome food too. I didn't like the roast lamb that much though. It has a playground for children so it's good for family outings or kids birthdays.

    My family of 4 ordered separate menu items and tried each. They were all great choices! The atmosphere was comfortable and they have a great play area. *warning: the red dipping sauce is soooo hot!

    Wonderful spot. They have a lot of fun activities for kids. It's a little loud and with children running around especially on weekends. So I'd skip it if I was looking for a quiet meal. The food was excellent and the wait staff very professional even though the place was swamped. We'll definitely go back.

  • 4/5 Barbzy W. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this place. Mostly because they have a playground and it's free as long as you buy food and drinks. Their food/drinks prices are pretty high though but they're delicious. Great for parties.

    The food isn't that over the moon. But it's quality. The place is good for family events and outdoor activities. They have lots of kids playing stuff, lots of parking too. They have like 3 bar clusters and an indoor space, too, for private parties too. A lot of the activities, including dining, are outside. They have a live band too, playing lovely music till around 7:00 pm. It's in such a quiet area that it's easy to access as there are no traffic jams on the roads in that area.

    We had a terrible experience here. The food and service is awful. It's got a great playground but there are many other places where you'd get good food and better service. Would not recommend it.

  • 5/5 Raj M. 2 years ago on Google
    The best outdoor restaurant in Nairobi. The fresh pizza from the clay oven will tantalise your taste buds. The friendly staff, the children's play area. 3 bars and a sound proof club with their own DJ. Saturday and Sundays is family day great offers during the week on food and drinks too. Venue for parties for the young and old, birthdays and receptions , Office parties to farewells too Under the radar is a one stop pleasure to have a dine out of just drinks with family and friends. Derrick and Juliet, the managers, keep it up..... 💯

    Perfect place to bring out the little ones to play over the weekend. Enjoy live their band on Sundays and chilled drinks from the bar. There is a car wash on site. Be sure to try the UTR pizza

    Great service! Great ambience. (Really upgraded the outdoor looks and feel from what we knew before ) Awesome spot for kids on weekends. Enjoyed the nyama platters and always the spot for great pizza! Cocktails were awesome! The manager - Grace - handles constructive criticism VERY well. Will be back soon!

    That place to bring your kids to play while you bond, eat and have a good time. I like to bring a book and the nannies at the play area are so helpful and thoughtful! Just a tip though, you could make the edges of the play area more baby-friendly it looks risky and might cause accidents. Otherwise everything here is fantastic.

  • 5/5 Fade M. 2 years ago on Google
    We went there on a Sunday and the place was full with kids which is good for them to make new friends reminded me of the old splash water world vibe. I think they also do birthdays since there were many kids celebrating their birthdays.

  • 4/5 Martin M. 2 years ago on Google
    Good times with great friends can be had here. The food is tasty and service is good. Mostly outdoor seating which in this day is most advisable. Pricing isn't bad either.

  • 4/5 martha m. 2 years ago on Google
    most delicious nyama platter...loved the play area for kids.

  • 2/5 Carolyne K. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here on a Sunday with the kids. They have a nice, spacious playground which is a plus. We had to ask several waiters for a menu after being seated. Needless to say, the service was lackluster. The waiter messed up our orders twice and the food took too long to get to the table. The food's also not great, had the pepper steak which was the worst I've had, pork chops were dry and chips bland. Not sure I'd go back.

    Their grilled meat was awesome 😋 Not to mention the ambience, music and customer service... I'll definitely definitely visit again And they also got professional car wash service that includes waxing and minor fixes to issues such as external/internal body scratches - they take care of your car exterior and interior while you enjoy yourself!

  • 5/5 Stephanie N. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Delphine W. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is good. Good for going with kids because there is a playground. Pleasantly impressed, they have a FANTASTIC minder who hangs about the kids ensuring they are safe. They have a variety of slides but the swings need repair.

  • 5/5 zulekha m. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved the playground. They just need to work on the static on the slides. Too much

  • 4/5 shirley a. 2 years ago on Google
    Great service, good food. The restaurant is clearly understaffed, waiters are busy running around to take and deliver orders that they forget to tidy tables after diners have finished. Other than that it's good, enjoyed the live band Kids are royals here, play area, toys, face painting and all of it is FREE!! My kids loved it

  • 4/5 Virginia Nyambura G. 1 year ago on Google
    I would recommend this place for parents with young children as they have a vibrant play area. The food is awesome, when you eventually manage to get table service! The place is VERY popular and can get really, really full! But I love it, it was my 2nd visit with my grandchildren!

  • 4/5 Rita O. 1 year ago on Google
    Sundays are packed. Service may be a bit slow than normal. Very fun place if you have kids. They keep them entertained while you enjoy your drink and live band.

  • 5/5 Prudence A. 1 year ago on Google
    A very nice place with a great ambience, some cool live band singing, has a great play area for kids, the food is tasty, definitely worth every penny ❤️.

  • 5/5 Sue K. 11 months ago on Google
    Too crowded on Sundays but such a serene place! Excellent play area for the kids! The bonus factor being it's free! Food was amazing even though service is slow and you'll have to remind your server to remember your food/drinks order.

  • 5/5 carol m. 11 months ago on Google
    I must say the thing I really appreciated was the jiko provided in this weather 😁😁 the Customer service was good, the food was really good and the prices are affordable. They run specials all through the week... Monday 2 for 1 burger Wednesday 2 for 1 pizza Friday 2 for 1 whole Fish Another excellent Idea was the kid zone, they have chaperones in that area, and therefore parents can just relax all through their stay.

  • 5/5 Sia S. 9 months ago on Google
    Are you looking for a family-friendly spot to relax ? Then this is your place. Great also for birthday parties and baby & bridal showers. Barber shop & car wash services are available. They have a variety of vegetarian & non vegetarian cuisines. Located on Argwings Kodhek Road (Kilimani) Parking is available but can be challenging sometimes, especially on Sundays.

  • 5/5 faith a. 8 months ago on Google
    Good food. Great place for events like baby showers and graduation parties . Live band on weekends has a place for kids to play. Loved the ambience Busy on weekends Not too noisy

  • 5/5 Niia B. 8 months ago on Google
    Good place to host kids parties. All the staff are friendly and helpful. We hosted a kids bday party and it was quite full but the day went smoothly. Oh and they also have a clown that entertains the kids in the play area. A few toys were given out to the kids and they all had fun to say the least. Would definitely recommend

  • 5/5 Sharon K. 8 months ago on Google
    Surprisingly really good spot and food. We enjoyed their cheese burger & simple chips and sausage. We'll be back! New: we did indeed go back and it's still great! The mashed potatoes were disappointing but otherwise would still recommend it.

  • 5/5 Lucy W. 3 years ago on Google
    A good and well managed hotel.

  • 4/5 Michael M. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a good family spot. Get to enjoy good ambiance and good food. The food is quite expensive though. On the upper side of most restaurants in Nairobi. Averaging 10 usd. The portions are fair enough for one to fill. There is ample parking and gets quite full over the weekends. Highly recommended if there are kids involved. Adequate covid 19 measures taken but ultimately boils down to how you take care of your self. Will most definitely revisit.

    Good for kids as they have an adequately large playground. Food was good though the kienyeji chicken took rather long to be served. Service is generally okay, could be more engaging. The live band was excellent! Need to arrive early to get good seating. Covid pre-cautions are well in place.

  • 4/5 Eleanor W. 3 years ago on Google
    Their food is excellent. I ordered for the BBQ ribs with a side of mashed potatoes and enjoyed every minute of eating this meal.The prices range from Kshs 1200 for a meal such as the one I ordered and above , depending on what you order. The service is pretty commendable,you're attended to as soon as you arrive and they don't take unbearably long to bring you your order. It does get pretty busy on Sundays so I would recommend booking a table.
