About

Go for the chicken, which is tasty, and to watch soccer with a mature crowd in a spacious setting. Skip the beef and goat choma — they're overcooked and portions are small — and watch your bill because staff have been known to add extras you didn't order.

    The beef and goat choma were overcooked, tough, and served in disappointingly small portions. The establishment itself feels past its prime—some of the screens aren’t fully operational, and the staff, though seemingly aware of the issues, appear indifferent. Overall, it is a disappointing experience that lacks the quality and attentiveness one would expect if you would be visiting the town. I'm definitely seeing why it hasn't crossed the 4 star mark

    Boma Hotel Mwatu Wa Ngoma. Beef and Goat was hard, hard and I think the chef (Eric) changed my portion. The flies which make a Butchery good were too many. The rug is the chef's kitchen is outright dirty. Maggy and the other servers were kind and that is the only reason for a 2 star. I recommend this place if you are high it is in the dark and desperate for fatty meat. 😞😥🫤

    Ah, neutral decor or ambience. They were not generous in the amount of food considering the price. But a good place to chill and watch soccer if you are in town

    Food was ok, but bill was inflated with kachumbari, spinach and other stuff we didn't ask for. Staff are a bit cheeky.

    very tasty chicken-excellent service-though not as uptown as one would want,but it is an alternative to the upper end clubs-very spacious and mature crowd
