A good Mtwapa lounge for getting your mind off heavy thoughts at the end of the day, with top-notched service and great music. Service can be slow, and security has been criticized — but on lucky nights with the right server, it's an excellent experience.

It is the only place in whole Kenya that the security is anowing and disaster. I cannot imagine that this club is scoring so much. Very bad food and service experience, with waiters and arrogant and aggressive security. I left after that to Casaurina. Much better food, friendly staff and much better vibe. Am not ever coming back and cancel the olace what I reserved for 8 people 👎😡

The experience was good. The service is good though slow. It's a good place to be at the end of the day when you need to get your mind off heavy thoughts.

Fun place to hangout while you are in Mtwapa, they had a lovely band and dancers.super attentive waiters. The food was good, the goat meat was soft and not full of bones, though I recommend serving it on a hot plate to keep it hot for long and served the kachumbari on a separate plate to avoid soaking up the meat, Will definitely visit again.

Had the best experience here; Service was top notched. I still remember our server. We didn't eat here, so there are no comments on that. We had drinks and enjoyed the music.

This is one of the few entertainment joints that have appealed to me the most! Located a few metres from the busy Mombasa -Malindi Highway in Mtwapa, it has great food and entertainment, a good place to chill out especially on Friday evening and Saturday. The live band is truly enjoyable when one has good company as well.
