About

A clean Diani spot where the Swahili food shines — the biryani's excellent, the chicken skewers are perfectly marinated, and the chai is everything. Service can be a touch slow, but the fair prices and authentic flavors keep people coming back.

Carnivore Restaurant Nairobi: The Honest Review (2026)

KES 4,800 for all-you-can-eat meat carved tableside with Maasai swords. Carnivore is touristy, overpriced by local standards, and absolutely worth doing once. Here's what to actually expect.

Had a great experience here on my stay in Diani. Very tasty African/swahili food. They're also clean. Their chai is everything. The one star was a bit on the service side.

I had chicken curry with rice and passion fruit juice. The taste was very good and the price fair. The restaurant is clean what here is not everywhere. For sure I will come again.

Atmosphere is not bad, ample of space. The food though...need to replace the entire kitchen staff; possibly the kitchen as well. If looking for reasonable prices in Diani and dont mind the quality the...

A great restaurant with a wide spread menu offering continental and Swahili options catering for a wide palate. Good and easily accessible location
