Strange restaurant. These do not offer menus and their interest is to sell clicks. They don't have W-LANs, they don't have a print menu, they don't have explanations. I won't come here next time

Kilimanjaro at Jamia Mall consistently serves fresh, flavorful meals with fast and efficient service. The portions are generous, and the menu has a wide variety of options to suit different tastes. The space is clean and well-organized, making it convenient for quick lunches or relaxed meals in town. Reliable spot when you want good food without long waiting times in Nairobi.

There was a mistake with one of our orders the passion fruit drink had nothing to do with passion fruit. It was overly sweet and tasted like artificial powder. We mentioned this to the staff, but they refused to replace it and even the manger came but still charged us for it. Even getting them to correct a wrong order was a challenge. It was disappointing. At the end food was good but still you need to make sure about your order ! Owner need to look up about this management in his restaurant !

6 or maybe 5.5 Platters were pretty good, they improvised a bunch of food for us, adjusting for vegetarian. Good for authentic food. They do try to upcharge you Ordered chicken platter again and it was a good move again. Getting the chicken pies and the curry and ugali and greens on the platter was great

First of all the portions are huge; generous serving for sure. The prices are also so friendly. The menu is extensive. They have everything for everyone. We loved the upstairs seating with a view of the bustling Nairobi.
