Al-Nusra restaurant ,Meru
Ranked in Best Casual Dining in Meru
About
Meru's go-to for shawarma and quick bites, though regulars say the mayo can be heavy-handed and the pilau doesn't quite hit Somali standards. Best for a casual meal when you want something familiar in town.

It's okay. Tricky to find parking since this restaurant is along a major street. The food is alright

I tried their camel milk tea and it was great.

Honestly, I had their pilau and it was nowhere near the quality I've come to expect from somali-made pilau. The waitress was so nonchalant felt so hostile. It was evening time so maybe she was tired but that's not my job as a customer to know that. The food took way too long to come out and it was awful. The amount was good though. The hotel used to have good ambience but they've since not done a good job maintaining it. Anyway, if my money isn't good for you guys then just tell me to walk out rather than give me such nonchalant service

The shwarma is ok, too much mayo tho. But only shwarma joint in meru i found except java. But shouldn't allow football watchers to occupy all the seats, those shud b put in their own section

Worst experience ever. Parking is quite limited and the askari there doesn't seem to bother with clients looking for parking. Came in with the urge of enjoying chicken biryani but apparently it was not available so I settled for pilau and arosto so, first of all, 🤔🤔who serves pilau and arosto with potato soup??? The lady waiter was so arrogant when I asked for another type of stew only for her to bring me another bowl of soup full of top layer oil more than the one we always had in highschool. Anyway I wouldn't recommend anyof my friends or clients there. First experience always counts!!!and I got the worst.
