Asal Restaurant & Cafe

East African restaurant

👍👍 The customers and staff show how caring a community can help others, which I saw the other day when the customer in his 'Ambulance' uniform asked someone at the bus stop if he was okay. As a brother to a brother. I asked the Ambulance serviceman if the man needed help, He said No, he said he didn't...

The Genet Cafe - Ethiopian Restaurant

Ethiopian restaurant

👍👍 One of the best food experiences I’ve ever had. This place proves you don’t need Michelin stars, 8 course taster menus and a sommelier to be a great restaurant.

Nargis Kenyan Restaurant

East African restaurant

😠 Very disappointed with the food. Nyama choma was very hard and was charged extra for ugali and kachumbari which should have been part of the meal. Prices are high. Chicken tikka wasn't that good too. Mandazi and tea were nice. Other dishes were ok. Not worth the price

Kenya Kitchen

👍👍 My first time trying Kenyan cuisine and it didn’t disappoint. Unfortunately they didn’t have goat ribs that I’d eyed up in advance so instead I had lamb shoulder which was super juicy & delicious.

👍👍 Don't judge a book by its cover. The place may look a bit tired. But as soon as you walk in you are greeted and made to feel welcome. The food was really nice. The lamb was cooked perfectly.
