Indoor and outdoor option available.. There’s also a private (VIP) section if you’d like some privacy. Loved the platter for 2 that goes for 2,500

I had such a great experience at Malo Malo BBQ Restaurant. The location is excellent: easy to find and perfectly placed for a relaxed meal. The food was outstanding, full of flavour, and clearly prepared with care. The service was just as impressive: attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming. I especially loved the décor and overall setup. The space is stylish, comfortable, and creates the perfect atmosphere for enjoying good food and good company. I’ll definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!

Quite Halal. Good place to chill. Parking can be chaotic on Friday night. Everyone is allowed to walk in with their sound systems so expect to hear all sorts sounds 🤣 But Generally that place got a cool vibe

Food wasnt good at all, coffee was fine. No one from the staff told us no cash payment available untill it was time to pay. Amazing atmosphere tho

Was my first time here recently and I loved the place. The food was excellent because they really try to give you authentic Swahili food like you’re in coast. On the service, they were a bit slow for a Saturday though I still got to be served and they brought the bill afterwards. I don’t know how good the shisha is yet but I would definitely recommend the food. 10/10 on that.
