About

The slow-cooked camel meat is delicious and tastes organic—one visitor became a daily customer during his Nairobi stay. Manager Zakariya and the team offer top-notch hospitality and it's very conducive for private events, with fresh cakes and reasonable wait times.

    We held a graduation lunch at Golis and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The buffet offered a wide variety of delicious food, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, and the service was truly top-notch. I highly recommend Golis 100%! A special thank you to the Manager Zakariya and the entire staff for their excellent organization and impeccable service that made the day so memorable.
