I ordered T-Bone steak and it came with some crab that I couldn't even cut it out. It is not a T-Bone steak, don't waste your money here.

Went there for Sunday brunch — the buffet and nyama were in plenty, and everyone ate to their fill. The restaurant offers great views of Mombasa Road, though it can get quite hot at the outdoor tables when the sun is out. Overall, a good experience and worth a visit.

24/7 Beautiful lounge and restaurant with a view of Mombasa rd. Ambience ideal for a Business meeting, Date night, Company Conference. Quiet, with soft Jazz mix playing in the background.

Been here through the evolution from when it was some restaurant I can't remember to Pride Inn to Ribs and Rhythm by Pride Inn and man, I love the glow up. It's right next to the road so easily accessible. The ambience is top notch. There was a live band that sang so beautifuly- I loved it. The staff are very warm and friendly and the service is pretty quick. The food was sooo nice, the meat was so tender and juicy and the sweet potato fries were to die for. The portions were little though. I had a passion mojito cocktail and it was a bit watered down. The also now have board games which makes it better for competitors like myself plus the views of Mombasa road from up there are to die for.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ribs and Rhythm, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience! The food was absolutely delicious; the ribs were tender and flavorful, and the sides were equally impressive. To top it off, the live band that performs on weekends added a fantastic vibe to the evening. Their music perfectly complemented the dining experience, making for a fun and lively atmosphere. I highly recommend Ribs and Rhythm for a great meal and an enjoyable night out!
