Grilled pork ribs were great! Nice place with reasonable proces. Highly recommended.
- Sarah W.Google review · 22 Dec 2025
Had an appointment at Palm Beach that run a little long and stopped here for a bite to eat. The port ribs and fries were very delicious and the staff was very accommodating despite my very noisy 5 month old. However, the next day I found several insect bites on my and my daughter’s arms. I can’t say for certain that we got them from this place but I had to chase a few ants from our table and even a small spider walked on my daughter’s thigh. So really great food and staff but the place is in dire need of renovation.

Very good food; we had ribs, chops, fish and chips, chips masala, and ugali. The ugali could be improved, but the rest was really delicious. The Service also well. The restaurant itself could use a renovation, and being right on Darad Road, it's always a bit noisy. I've been to nicer restaurants, but the food wasn't nearly as good. So, overall, I recommend it.

Only visited once but by far the best food I tried while visiting the Diani shores. Location: it's a non assuming place that doesn't look like a restaurant but a house. Vive: pretty relaxing and mellow, a perfect spot to enjoy a good drink after work or after visiting the beach to relax further. The waitress was prompt and friendly and was nice when asked about the meals on the menu. We got our food to go, the wet fried pork with chips, spinach, and ugali. Everything tasted so good, and it was made to order, fresh and hot. Everything was delicious. Honestly, it's better than most of the places along Diani Beach Road. Before you go anywhere, visit Rock Starz to taste what I'm raving about, you will not be disappointed, I guarantee it.

I was here on 26/10/29. I'd heard great things about their pork ribs. We ordered the ribs together with chips, ugali and mataha. The ribs were okay; nothing to write home about. My companions who had previously recommended the ribs were also not impressed. Our biggest disappointment however, was the mataha. It didn't taste fresh at all. We were happy with the friendly waitstaff but disappointed by the food.
