About

A proper fine dining restaurant with ambience out of this world, featuring intimate jazz and instrumental music. The duck and ostrich steak with fries are highly recommended, and the fresh oysters, beef carpaccio, and octopus are beautifully presented — the service and attention to detail are excellent.

    Beautiful food, kind staff, however I booked a table well in advance for my partners birthday and was promised a surprise table set up for him plus a personally decorated dessert. The table had been completely forgotten about as had the dessert. Halfway through our meal I had to go and submit the request that had been promised to me on three different occasions over the past month. Such a shame as the restaurant is beautiful but was slightly let down as this was a birthday gift

    This is a proper fine dining restaurant The ambience is out of this world! They have lots of seating areas both indoor and outdoor The music was giving intimate jazz/Instrumental which just makes you want to stay there all day The service was exceptional (Shout out to our waiter, Lucy) The prices are a bit on the higher side-Ksh 4000-5000pp Would i go back? • Definitely yes😍 Loved how they were receptive to my feedback on the duck and hopefully when i go back i'll like it Highly recommend the chicken marbella to eat, pornstar martini to drink and sticky toffee pudding for dessert Perfect for romantic dates, group hangouts or family dates

    Nice cosy and quiet restaurant with sumptuous food, excellent service and good ambience. We had the duck and ostrich steak with fries and onion rings. I would highly recommend these options as a break from the usual meat options. Good place for an outing with your significant other.

    Beautiful fine dining experience in Nairobi. The ambience was calm and elegant, with great service and attention to detail. I had the fresh oysters, beef carpaccio, and octopus — all beautifully presented and flavorful. The setting is perfect for a relaxed evening or special dinner. Would definitely return!

    Held a birthday dinner and the ambience won. The chef was super kind to explain how the food was made and made me something else because i was allergic to some ingredients. Boniface our waiter was swift and very great with service. They were also super kind and even sang my sister a happy birthday. I would recommend the place for romantic dates, family dinners or friends hang out. Prices are also reasonable and location accessible
