I’ve been twice this week. The first time I had a very nice, tasty coconut chicken curry with rice. Beautifully cooked and very tasty. The second time I had goulash soup with buttered toast - easily a meal in itself and also very tasty. It’s 2 years since I last visited but the friendly bar staff still remembered me. Service was friendly and efficient. Pet friendly and no problems with my little dog on a lead. It’s a nice chill vibe and decor. Recommended and I’ll definitely be back again

Had not been there for a very long time. Different owner now, I was told. Food is still good and nicely priced. Same for drinks. I was there on a Friday evening, when there was a live band playing. Not crazy loud, as is common in Kenya 😆. Wakenya wanapenda makelele. There was a eh... choice of female companionship, but I had brought my own.

Under new management and firstly wish the management company all the very best for the future. Rudi had built a very successful business over the many years he was the owner People are attracted there for many reasons, entainerment ,service, food , atmosphere and pricing. But have noticed issues creeping in with the food. All the best

This restaurant was actually great. The food tasted right and the service was prompt enough for me. The only thing I would say is that the portion sizes can really vary between meals. Some are surprisingly bigger, some smaller, so I would suggest maybe if they added photos to the menu. I comprehended that the size differences normally equate to the cost of ingredients, which is fine, but I just would have liked to know before I ordered.
