Tamarind Brasserie

Tamarind Brasserie, situated at Dari Office Park, on Ngong Road in Nairobi's Karen neighborhood, offers a serene garden setting ideal for family gatherings and group outings. The restaurant features both indoor and outdoor seating, including gazebos and a spacious patio, providing a relaxed and elegant dining atmosphere. During our lunch visit, I ordered the Fully Loaded burger with fries, followed by a cheesecake and ice cream dessert. The service was prompt, and despite the restaurant being busy, the staff attentively catered to our family group. The generous portions and flavorful dishes exceeded our expectations. Tamarind Brasserie is particularly family-friendly, offering a play park and ample safe space for children to enjoy. A delightful surprise was the presence of bunnies in the garden, which our kids loved. The restaurant's menu blends international cuisine with local Kenyan flavors, featuring seafood, African, and continental dishes. In summary, Tamarind Brasserie provides a welcoming environment with delicious food and excellent service, making it a top choice for those seeking quality local cuisine in Nairobi. We highly recommend it and look forward to returning.

TL/DR: Come here if you prefer lush ambience over the quality of food/service Food: Nothing to write home about here. It’s not bad, but it doesn’t come close to wowing either. Bread was dry and borderline stale, meat was average etc. no need for specifics It met the basics: - No red flags raised by your taste buds - Supplies nutrients to your body 🤷‍♂️ - No food poisoning I would not consider the food/drinks value for money. I.e. what I paid for vs what I got Service: Came on a pretty slow day, not much was happening. Sat in the garden. Took forever to get served though and the waiters weren’t rude but I can’t say they were a joy to converse with either. Let’s just say I’d rather have ordered from an app. Parking: Can get full but they tend to have a decent amount of parking Would only go back if someone had planned an event here and invited me. And I couldn’t change their mind.

We had our Christmas lunch here and everything was awesome! Right from the way we were welcomed by staff, their service, the food and drinks, the entertainment....we were very happy. There was an excellent buffet with a very wide variety of dishes that were well done. That was the best Christmas lunch I had had in a very long time. Kudos to the management for the organization.

Exceptional outside catering service! I tried their Christmas menu, and they did an excellent job. The food was fresh and hot, with a great selection of juicy meats. The service team provided a top-notch experience, consistently checking on guests and ensuring the tables were clean and cleared. Impressively, they barely used the kitchen, only utilizing it to cut salads, leaving the house spotless and hassle-free. I highly recommend them for weddings, home events, and any outside catering needs!
