Today I had the prawn creamy linguine and a firebomb smoothie. So yummy! I have been here many times in the past and they never disappoint! The fact that they support & employ deaf staff endears them to me even more! Very cozy atmosphere if you want a quiet place to work from, enjoy a brunch, coffee or meal. Very green
Nice relax green place in middle of Nairobi city. Kids friendly with outdoor tables. You could enjoy a good coffee and food. The employees are very friendly and helpful. Brunch times or lunch times don’t hesitate to go to this relax and chill place.
Very bad experience. The staff there are ignorant even the mallus. Initially food was good now they serve packet porotas and cold. I was the only customer there and waited for almost an hour to be attaneded by staffs. I went again the following day as my kid like their playground but unfortunately they dont seem caring for customers. Always i see staffs moving here and there. Dont understand those movements without serving the customers. Looks like they are spoiling the mallu authentic food culture and taste.
The food took a while to come and k expected it to be warm on arrival. It was extremely cold - every single dish we ordered apart from the fries. 30min after leaving we all have experienced a bad tummy .
