The opulent Arab-styled starlit terrace provides a picturesque panoramic view of Mombasa while you enjoy sumptuous dishes like Oysters, mixed seafood platters, chilli crabs, lobster thermidore, and prawns piri piri.
Amazing sushi boat and awesome view! Food was top notch and perfect cooked. We enjoyed the portion size for the cost. Very good drinks and lots of selection. The chefs specials were very good too! Next time we will take the dinner cruise.

The food did not live up to the view. I’m not saying the food was bad. It was just OK and at that price I expect more than OK. I tasted more garlic on the shrimp than the shrimp and I tasted no coconut in the rice now the view is gob, smacking beautiful specially if you can make it for the sunset so maybe I just recommend going to the bar and watching the sunset. The staff was very attentive and nice and the building is very beautiful but the view.!

We had booked for the dhow dinner a group of 4 friends dressed in white. We had a wonderful experience. The food was out of this world delicious, well presentable, the atmosphere great, service great. Boniface was a great and good server. The dawa wow, garlic bread and soup. Salad, main course, dessert and coffee and halau/halfway. This was a life time experience I will never forget. The band had great music we danced the night away. The dhow had patrons from different parts of the world. We got together and we danced sang and enjoyed ourselves. The crew were wonderful people. The captain introduced himself to the patrons, table by table. It was a beautiful and memorable evening. It was a 4hr dhow dinner tour. I will definitely came back.

The restaurant features a set menu with influences from Pakistani, Indian, and Arabic cuisines, including dishes like chicken tikka, kebabs, and grilled seafood platters.

First of all, there's mandhi in the menu which they do not offer. The first waitress brought us the menu then pretended she did not see us when we signalled we were ready to order. The fish fingers did not taste like fish at all. It was moist on the inside and tasted only of spices. The fries were pretty bland. The mutton curry also had lots of spices that did not mix very well. Tasted like uncooked spice. The straws that came with the drinks were a bit too big. The weather was chilly so if you're going in the evening carry a light sweater. The milkshake and buttered naan were good. Pina colada is also good. Pretty place but overall bad service and poor food.

The scenery is beautiful, breeze is heavenly in a hot day and the servers are very nice. Unfortunately though, I did not get to try the food as they only start to cook around 1:30 to 1:45 on Fridays due to some Muslim prayers and I need to leave at 2pm for my old town tour. Would love to try if I can come back tho

Forodhani Restaurant was such a wonderful stop during my time in Mombasa. The location by the ocean makes it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the breeze while watching the city’s vibrant life go by. What really stood out for me was their hot Dawa drink. I wasn’t feeling my best that day, and the warmth of the drink—infused with honey, lemon, and ginger—instantly soothed me. It felt like a hug in a cup and gave me just the boost I needed to continue exploring. The staff were attentive and kind, and the atmosphere felt welcoming even for a solo traveler. If you’re in Mombasa, I highly recommend stopping by Forodhani

Nestled in the heart of Mombasa's old town, Jahazi Coffee House is a top dining spot offering an authentic taste of Swahili dishes. The restaurant boasts elegant furniture, captivating paintings, and a warm aura that reflects the heritage of Mombasa's diverse inhabitants. Just a short walk from Fort Jesus, this charming coffee house offers fresh juices, tasty bhajias, and samosas that transport you to Lamu instantly.
What a place to just wind your day and let life go by in the old town. Sure, it's a coffee shop but don't sleep on the food. This is some of the best chapattis that I've had in the country and trust me I had quite a lot of chapattis. Get the swahili coffee, it's laced with spices such as cardamom and what not. Goes well with the dates also. There's something poetic about this place, being stuck in time somewhere. It is reflective of the pace and the temperament of Mombasa, and for this alone you should go visit.

Nice little spot. Definitely the best one in the area. However don’t expect much, there are only a few dishes and drinks. We took the snack platter and while it stated 9 types of food, there were only 5. The cardamom coffee was exceptional and the juice was also delicious! Not a bad place to stop on your way to Fort Jesus.

Their location is so convenient and it was easy for us to make quick stops for meals while running business errands. It was also a perfect spot to dine with family. Every meal that they serve is made to perfection and the service is great. We look forward to dinning at Cafesserie in the near future.

Yul's Restaurant is situated on the beautiful Bamburi beach in Mombasa, offering a relaxing ambiance and stunning ocean views. The menu features a variety of mouth-watering cuisines, with a focus on fresh seafood prepared on charcoal BBQ. Guests can also enjoy engaging in water sports activities or taking leisurely walks along the beach while waiting for their meals.
Spent Christmas lunch there, there greeter was fantastic with us and seated us quickly at possibly the best table. We were given time to look through the menu and the waiter gave helpful suggestions. The food was fantastic, with a wonderful view and cooling breeze. Despite it being super busy we weren't rushed out and the owners were on hand to meet and greet. The water sports were also really enticing, bring your swimming costum. Word of warning, avoid eye contact with the touts on the beach, once you engage they can be persistent.
Ezza M — Google review
I was told that Yul’s is the place to be on the beach, and being my first visit to the Indian Ocean, I probably expected too much. The spot has clearly seen better days and feels quite touristy, with camels lined up for rides and piles of souvenirs cluttering the beach—not exactly inviting for a swim. That said, the restaurant itself is clean and organized, with a decent-looking menu (though overpriced for Mombasa). The pizza was good, and the staff friendly, but service felt a bit unmotivated. A nice one-time experience, but I’m definitely curious to see what else the coast has to offer.
Oliver H — Google review
Ticking Yul's Aerodrome has been on my bucket list for a while now and I'm glad it met my expectations. I must admit the restaurant is a legacy place based on the quality of the infrastructure. It's been there for a while. A view by the beach with a breeze as you enjoy your meal ? Sold! The service was prompt and I enjoyed the ice cream 🍦 Looking forward to the next one!
Brenda K — Google review
We had a great time, lovely spot for food and ocean vibes. We enjoyed our delicious food and drinks while feeling the cool ocean breeze. The pizza was fantastic — thin, crispy, and packed with flavor. The beach is beautiful, though it had quite a bit of seaweed when we visited, and it felt a bit busy with vendors and camel rides set up along the shore. It can feel slightly overwhelming if you’re looking for a peaceful beach moment, but it adds to the local charm in its own way. Gets very busy after 1pm. We arrived around 11:30am and stayed for at least 4 hours. We were recommended this spot by family who live here, and we’re glad we came. Much love from Canada!

I know Yul‘s since 30 year‘s when he started. And since 30 year‘s Yul is keeping the german quality in his restaurants. I know Robert’s, Moorings, Nico, Tamarind, The Marina and other restaurants in Mombasa which are already closed due to loosing quality. But only one is keeping his high quality. The pizza is better than Robert’s (I was really upset about the quality there now and do not understand the Hype for that restaurant) and Nico, the Burgers are without competition and always fresh made grounded meat. The avocado prawns are the best and Tamarind cannot compete against Yul’s seafood dishes. The dishes is outstanding and German standard. This is the only restaurant which keeps is standard over year’s and even Yul is not there. I have been here this week several times as I did holidays in August and will come back in December for fishing. Thanks for Daniel for the good service at the table. I would give 6 stars for this restaurant if possible. You need to try out also the cocktails. Thanks for great food here. the fisherman By the way, the have the best ice cream in Kenia.
Münzen 1 — Google review
The locale of this establishment provides convenient access to the beach. While initial reviews had been favourable, the experience did not align with our expectations. Regrettably, the service we received from our server lacked engagement, and there was an apparent lack of interest when we are sought recommendations. The quality of the food did not meet our anticipated standards; the meat was tough and lacked flavour, and the lobster contained minimal meat. It is important to note, however, that the senior waitress demonstrated exceptional service by promptly replacing a spilt drink without hesitation.

On vacation and drugged my siblings for some nice icecream at Yuls. They had wanted to go elsewhere but I remember really enjoying myself. We had icecream and my brother had a vanilla milkshake which was more like a fresh cream milkshake! Something was off. How are we all sick!

Had a nice experience at Shehnai! The food was tasty and the service was great too. You can tell they put effort into the flavors and presentation. My only letdown was the portion size — for the price, I was hoping for a bit more on the plate. Still, a lovely spot if you're after quality, just be ready for lighter portions.

Shehnai is hands down one of the best restaurants in Mombasa! Their butter chicken is rich, creamy, and full of flavor easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The paneer tikka is cooked to perfection, smoky yet tender, and the corn curry is a hidden gem that keeps you coming back for more. If you’re looking for authentic taste, excellent service, and a memorable dining experience, Shehnai is the place to be. Highly recommended!

They are closed on monday. So i went there on tuesday. My reception was great and the welcomed me with greetings and smile. In entrance i saw a lot of certificates hanged on the wall which this restaurant received as an award by recognized travle companies around the world. Like hospitality industry, tripadvisor, other safari and tourism bodies and they looked amazing to me. Interior is very nice and they serve people onntable ala karte. Due to covid 19 siguation i did not found other customers othar than me at that time. The waiter brought mene card and i started reading, more than 100 different varity of dishes were listed on that card and price was reasonable. Most of the food items were from asian cuisine and i requested for hyderabadi biryani. The manager suggested me to order one of their best biryani called swahili biryani and i accepted the offer. Both costed the same. After waiting for 15 minutes they served me biryani with coca cola, chutnyies and curd. I asked for spicy biryani and they did meet my requirement. I liked the taste of it so much that i decided to write this review. I enjoyed instrumental music in the background and liked the ambiance of the dining hall. The painings of old times touched me and antique collection it items mesmerized me. This restaurant met my expectation and like to visit them again. I requested for bill and they brought mouth freshener with vill. I felt very happy about this lunch. Thanks team shahnai.

Blue Room Restaurant & Ice Cream in Mombasa is a versatile dining spot that has been serving customers since 1952. Whether you're looking for a quick business meeting over breakfast, a traditional Swahili meal, or some sought-after ice cream, this restaurant has it all. The menu offers a wide range of options including local, American, Indian, Pakistani and vegetarian dishes as well as hotdogs, pizza, sandwiches, burgers and seafood.
We came for dinner and it was relatively quiet. The menu is extensive and has lots of vegetarian options. The food was excellent, really tasty and the portions were very big. It might be a little more expensive than other places, but the side of the dishes makes up for it, and the staff are friendly. Recommend.

When I walked through Old Mombasa on Sunday with a guide, I was told that the Blue Room is one of the oldest restaurants in town, supposedly founded in 1951.

Char-Choma Restaurant is a highly popular beach eatery in Mombasa known for its assortment of delectable Kenyan cuisine. This sought-after establishment offers an extensive range of dishes, such as nyama choma (grilled meat), ugali (a maize-based meal), and chapati (a type of flatbread). It stands out with its innovative presentation and pricing method, where meats and seafood are listed by weight in 100 gram increments.
I loved my experience at the restaurant. The beautiful view and great ambiance perfectly complemented the live band and DJ mixes that I truly enjoyed. I was pleasantly surprised by the birthday celebration the staff organized. They performed well choreographed dances as they brought out a cake, which made the moment extra special. The food was the highlight for me, and it was nothing short of amazing.

Fantastic venue. The atmosphere is very stylish, the food is good, the drinks are cold, and the service is attentive. The only criticism: the music is sometimes a bit too loud. Good to chill and relax.

This is a perfect spot for Nyama Choma lovers. Enjoy the beach views and ocean breeze here. No goat meat though. They say their meat is roasted over charcoal (Char <coal> Choma). On the outdoors, they have nice swinging chairs. Each sitting area has a power socket to charge your phone or laptop. The waiters and waitresses are very friendly and helpful. A supervisor checks in often to know if you are ok. Has small kids play area and swimming pool. You can walk in order food and walk to the beach as your food is prepared. Cool live band performance during the evenings. In short, it is a beach bar that is family friendly during the day and great for party goers in the night.

**5 Stars – Char Choma Mombasa: Meat Heaven on Bamburi Beach! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟** Just wow! Juicy goat ribs and beef so tender they melted in my mouth, ugali on point, kachumbari slapping fresh. Toes in sand, ocean breeze, live band vibing—pure bliss! Service? Lightning fast and super friendly—Grace & team had my platter flying to the table before I could blink. Ordered 500g, left in a happy food coma. Stretchy pants mandatory! Short verdict: Best nyama choma in Mombasa, insane flavors, zero wait. 10/10, coming back tomorrow! 🔥🍖🏖️

I like their system of picking the variety of meats from chicken, pork to prawns, lobster. They then prepare the assortment which for us took about 40 minutes. It was worth the wait. Freshly cooked food any day. My only issue was the wait for our drinks. All in all Char Choma was a good experience.

We didn't stay in the hotel, but came here 4 times in 1 week as the ambiance, vibe, staff and food are all excellent and value for money. European and Kenyan friendly. Great views by the beach, pools and lots of space as well as a great play area watched by staff for the kids, also a regular live band. Mombasa at its best. Thanks all for 4 x a great time.

Italian restaurant
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Mombasa, Roberto's Italian Restaurant is a delightful culinary gem that promises an authentic taste of Italy. Recommended by locals and visitors alike, this charming eatery specializes in traditional Italian cuisine while proudly sourcing fresh local ingredients from across Kenya. The menu boasts an impressive array of seafood dishes, delectable pizzas, and classic plates like filled pasta and beef cheeks.
I finally visited Roberto's Original Italian Kitchen in Mombasa, and I am completely impressed! The service was top-notch – a clear 10 out of 10. The food was outstanding, every dish a delight, also a 10 out of 10. The ambiance and cleanliness were excellent, I would rate them 9.5 out of 10. I especially enjoyed spending Christmas Eve there, and the special Christmas menu was a real highlight. I was able to request the menu in advance, which I really appreciated. A small suggestion for improvement: The "Food Royal" starter is quite large for one person and could be listed as a starter for two. The cheese platter could also be better labeled as a portion for two. And as a minor note – I missed having an Italian Grappa. But these are just small details that don't take away from the overall perfect experience. I will definitely return and highly recommend Roberto's to both tourists and locals. A true gem in Mombasa!

Decided to come and check Roberto's restaurant today and was glad I did. The service was great and attentive. Food was also excellent, I went with the seafood pasta, and was yummy. Also great addition to have condiments on the side like chilli, garlic etc. really was good. I will definitely try a pizza next time as I seen some come from the kitchen and smelt and looked amazing. I want to thank the waiters as they gave great service and very professional. It's a shame as the table next to me were quite rude to one of the waiters and i hate to see things like this but shows how professional they are. Thank you and will be visiting again.

Absolutely fantastic Italian cuisine! Their minestrone soup is mouth-watering, and pizzas are authentic. The garlic bread and lasagne were executed perfectly, overall delicious food, and moderately priced. The interior decoration of the restaurant is beautiful. My only complaint is the parking lot, it doesn't go around the restaurant so manoeuvring when it's full is somewhat of a headache.

Best Italian restaurant in Mombasa. Ambiance instantly set the stage for an enjoyable lunch. The staff's attentiveness added a welcoming touch, making the dining experience memorable. The menu offered a delightful array of Italian classics, and the lasagna was a standout with its rich cheesy flavors. The pasta showcased authenticity, with the al dente texture stealing the show. However, the service, while friendly, had moments of slowness that slightly impacted the overall experience. The prices were reasonable, considering the quality. In summary, Robertos is a charming spot for authentic Italian food. Recommended for those seeking a cozy atmosphere and a taste of traditional Italian cuisine. Visited 3 times already!!

I’ve never liked the attitude of the staff there, once they refused to believe that their truffle is bad and we had to as a group say that if everyone of us is feeling that food has gone bad they can’t refuse. I’m not a fan of this place anyway. But their ravioli is good.

I liked the place, very solid. For value, it’s a 5 star. Plenty of food for 800 KES (depends on which one dish you order). The mango juice? A bit sweet but 5 star for only 100-150 KES. The sugar fried donut thing is a 3.5 star. Enjoyable but nothing special but if I could have it fresh, maybe 4 star. The beef dish? Value — 5 star. It had 2 large chunks of beef, boiled egg, 2 potatoes, and plenty of rice with a spaghetti meat sauce. I didn’t like the flavor profile (3 star) and the beef was tough/dry (3 star). Overall for this dish is 4 star. Would I come here again? Sure. I like it. Lots of locals. I only came once so it has promise to be better than my 4 star. Regardless, I recommend this place for value. Enjoy. Ps. After eating here, there’s a 50% chance I had mild food poisoning. I didn’t need to throw up but I had use the number 2 three times that night and thrice more in the morning. Then twice more later that day in the afternoon and evening. Old food takes 24 hours to really hit but it took six hours for me and again two hours after that. I can’t blame them completely bc maybe my stomach isn’t geared towards their cuisine so still a 4 star.

I am a big fan of biryani Again by virtue of the fact that I have married a woman from Mombasa, I can never have enough of rice dishes. The very first time I visited Tarboush I was quite reluctant to make my order for fears of a bill that would cost an arm and leg Contrary to my woes, this place is way manageable, in fact the potion you receive for the price I paid for mutton biryani is unbelievable. The juice also comes in various flavours and is all fresh and soothing. The staff, I can't forget one by the name Rama, pardon my manners I left without tipping today, I owe you one. I've tried fish biryani and it was finger licking. I wish to know if it's possible to open such a joint in Nairobi please.

I can tell through out the positive reviews are all not locals of Mombasa. As born coastal, their shawarma was the worst ever. No marination, not even some salt, u could not differentiate btwn the shawrma meat from the bread. Just flat and tasteless. The saucers were cleaned with water but dried by dirty cloth living dirty marks. Masala chips felt like lime 🍋‍🟩 all the way. Food Price was so high while quality was so low. It's not what it used to be, mayb change of management or luck of affording good Chef's. I do not recommend anyone for now!

If you’re craving authentic Swahili dishes, this is the place! I always have their flavourful and aromatic chicken biryani, with just the right balance of spices.

Imani Dhow is a unique dining experience in Mombasa that takes place on an authentic Arab ship, known as a Dhow.

Located at Severin Sea Lodge in Bamburi, the restaurant offers a romantic and adventurous atmosphere for diners.
We dined at Imani Restaurant on the last day of our stay in Mombasa, and it turned out to be a hidden gem. The service was absolutely outstanding – a dedicated staff member took care of us throughout the entire meal, guiding us through each step of the dining experience with professionalism and warmth. The meal was perfectly curated, starting with authentic samosas that were truly the best we’ve ever had – a solid 5/5. For the main course, we ordered the Shimoni Crab (4.8/5) and the Grilled Lobster (4.6/5). Both were expertly prepared, fresh, and packed with flavor. The dessert concluded the meal beautifully, leaving us completely satisfied. The staff were not only professional but also incredibly helpful, making the experience even more memorable. If you're in Mombasa, don’t miss the chance to visit Imani Restaurant. It’s a place that exceeds expectations and makes every meal feel like an occasion. Highly recommend!

My visit to La marina was frustrating and disappointing. Despite arriving on time, we waited over three hours, and our food was never served. Worse, there was no explanation or attempt to resolve the situation from the staff. What made it even more upsetting was the noticeable difference in service. White patrons were attended to promptly, while we were ignored. No amount of ambiance can make up for such poor treatment. I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking fair and respectful service.

I came for the oysters and was the first guest. Greeting was nice. Can I take your order? Relax. Enjoy the journey.. I’ll provide you a towel to refresh. The owner who runs the place for thirty years asked me in which Hotel I stay? The meal finishes with a bowl of lemon water for cleaning.

Food quality as low as the view is great. Third class food at first class rate. Icecream was dissapointing, pina colada without coconut taste. Old fish and thin steak... looked like a torn plastic bag. The male owner did not appreciate that being pointed out and became rude and aggressive. Very dissapointing.

The view is absolutely stunning – a perfect spot to enjoy a meal with a breathtaking ocean backdrop. The service was excellent, attentive and friendly. Just keep in mind that you're also paying for the incredible scenery, so prices are on the higher side. Worth it for a special occasion or if you're looking to treat yourself!

We discovered Sea Haven just by coincidence. What a gem it is. Located on a cliff, you get to enjoy amazing views of the vast Indian Ocean and the old city of Mombasa. We are sea food lovers and this was a sea food heaven! Lobsters, crabs, king prawns, squids, octopus and even the delicious Kenyan Oysters (didn't even know there are oysters in Kenya!) all prepared to your liking. The service is very attentive. Roy the owner does a good job of making every guest feel special. I hope this place will be there for a long time because it beats them all. Oh I forgot to mention the prices. The best value for money we've ever had.

Excellent location! It’s on the pricier side, but it’s worth it. The seafood soup was excellent. We also tried the fish curry (red snapper) with rice which was so good that we asked for a second serving of rice. Bummer was that their card machine wouldn’t work, they wouldn’t accept USD and we had to use multiple forms to make the payment - I wish they had made that clear ahead of time.

Country club
Nestled in the vibrant Nyali area, Maasai Koroga Country Club is a delightful culinary haven that caters to both vegetarian and non-vegetarian palates with an enticing Asian twist. Surrounded by lush green lawns and towering trees, it’s the perfect venue for gatherings with friends and family. One of its standout features is the option to rent a Banda, where you can prepare your own meals or enjoy a barbecue in privacy—just be sure to notify them ahead of time.
The ambiance is something else. You can literally have the whole pavilion to yourself if you want. Their food is dope, so is the service and a lot of ample parking

Monsoons Restaurant offers a splendid experience with exquisite seafood dishes. The atmosphere is inviting, complemented by a soothing sea-breeze. Run by Italian owners who are hospitable and value customer feedback, the restaurant also boasts of purely organic vegetables. The location itself is captivating, situated near the Jumba la Mtwana Ruins with a scenic view and refreshing ocean front winds.
It was a magical experience. The steak and fries was delicious. Will try something fishy the next visit. Perhaps the only minus is that the juices are Delmonte. Fresh juice is always preferable. Anyway, loved it. Will be back.

This beautiful hidden gem in Mombasa is a must visit! The best Italian food I’ve had in a long time Note timings : only breakfast and lunch - no dinner - 4.30 pm restaurant closes so plan accordingly The entry to this restaurant is via Jumba ruins , if you do not wish to visit the ruins , at the counter ask to be sent to restaurant directly and they will guide you , no need to pay entry to the ruins.

Come and relax and enjoy this gem along the Kenyan coast.

For me, this is the best restaurant i know of. I've been working with food, in several continents, for 40 years. And Monsoon have been my favourite since the first bite. It's not fancy. It's not fine dining. It's not snobby in any way. It's simply great food, without fancy techniques and presentations. Great ingredients, prepared to the ultimate perfection. The opposite of cheap ingredients with glamorous presentation, as you get in Kempinsky and others. The atmosphere is very friendly and totally relaxed. With a great scenery and view of the beach and ocean. A bumpy road is immediately forgotten when you get there. And some minutes walk trough the Jumba ruins is a nice experience on top of it all. I highly recommend Monsoon. Either it's for a family dinner, a romantic lunch date, or if you're simply just a lover of great food.

If you're on the hunt for authentic Indian cuisine, a visit to Singh Restaurant is a must. Established in 1962, this beloved eatery has become a staple in Mombasa's culinary landscape, particularly known for its hearty Punjabi dishes that keep both locals and travelers coming back for more. The ambiance may be simple, but the flavors are anything but! Indulge in their renowned tandoori chicken or savor the rich lamb curry paired with stuffed parathas.
Amazing food , good fast service . Over years and years old . Very famous for its North Indian cuisine. Fairly good ambiance. Air-conditioning doesn't help much and it's gets stuffy at some point .

I like Indian food... here. The food here is great, if spicy is your thing as well as curry. I'm mostly here for the curry because its bloody delicious and with some Naan on the side, it's a "curry munchers" dream dish. I'd mostly recommend the Chicken Masala (Boneless) or Butter chicken (boneless) served with buttered Naan and/or rice. The food is great, service is... okay-ish. The food will get to you in time, if hopefully you went in where there were little to no customers in apart from you. I will warn you to be on the lookout for the usual flies that may make their way in, to ruin the sanctity of the restaurant. The decor of the restaurant is traditional albeit outdated, but in contrast to the cuisine they specialize in. Oh and there is more than just the usual curry here, as they do serve a variety of different dishes.

As a child this was my brother's and my favorite place to eat tasty food. We lived opposite Singh restaurant and it was a Sunday treat for us. We would hardly eat one chapati at home but when we came to Singh restaurant we'd eat at least 2/3 and those were really big chapatis with the best egg curry and the chicken curry (we never ate the chicken just the sauce! 🤣) I am so sad to hear about the closing of my childhood favourite restaurant.

The lively ambiance is enhanced by music and games like billiards and darts, making it an ideal place to relax after a day of exploration.
This restaurant was actually great. The food tasted right and the service was prompt enough for me. The only thing I would say is that the portion sizes can really vary between meals. Some are surprisingly bigger, some smaller, so I would suggest maybe if they added photos to the menu. I comprehended that the size differences normally equate to the cost of ingredients, which is fine, but I just would have liked to know before I ordered.

A journey into the past (in a positive sense) For dinner at the Safari inn. After 18 years for the first time. Time seems to have stood still and that is meant in a positive way. Rudi, the Swiss owner still makes his rounds every evening and greets the guests personally. Surprisingly, he recognized me after all these years and we exchanged a few words. The food is plentiful and of very good quality. It ranges from Swiss cuisine (various kinds of homemade Rösti) to typical German (various Schnitzel) to local cuisine and seafood. I had the seafood plate for 2700 ksh and would have gladly paid more. In addition, a few beers and it was an all-around successful evening, which I will certainly repeat more often.

Nestled along the stunning Serena Beach, Jahazi Grill is a must-visit for seafood enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable dining experience. This Arabian dhow-themed restaurant offers breathtaking ocean views and the soothing sounds of waves crashing nearby, creating a perfect backdrop for your meal. The menu features an impressive selection of freshly caught seafood, including succulent prawns, lobsters, octopus, and red snapper, all prepared with the finest local ingredients. Vegetarian options are also available to ensure everyone finds something delightful to enjoy.
A place to be for seafood lovers. A speciality restaurant inside Serena Beach Hotel, Jahazi caters mostly for those who loves extra. Though we were on half board at the main restaurant, we just couldn't miss to indulge in the deliciousiness Jahazi had to offer. I have experienced only one other restaurant in this area that has the same quality of fresh lobsters, king prawns, octopus, oysters, crab cakes, red snappers.....the list is endless, not to mention at an incredible low price. The wine list is not very impressive but there's always that one South African white that never dissapoints. Willy the waiter is the sweetest. Very friendly and always attentive but also discrete. The general ambience is quite and romantic. Set on a boat like construction with beautiful views of the ocean, Jahazi offers an intimate spot for a perfect date night

Jahazi is a great restaurant for seafood lovers! The service and food are amazing! As a guest of Serena you get 1000 shillings off your food bill at Jahazi grill. It’s a small restaurant right at the beachfront, with a calming breeze especially on hot afternoons. The food prices are fair, $35 dollars Will get you a main course. Please ask for the seafood chowder as a starter, full of wonderful spices and coconut milk. I can’t wait to visit again.

The best seafood in North Coast! This is one of the best kept secrets by Serena Hotel, Mombasa. Jahazi means dhow in Swahili and the restaurant is in the form of a dhow. The service is attentive and the food excellent. The crab cakes are delicious as is the seafood chowder which are the house renowned starters. For the main course, the calamari or the crab thermidor if you like seafood or the lamb chops for the meat eaters! Nothing will disappoint here. This is a place to bookmark for seafood at the coast. Beware prices are on the very high side..

Barka is a popular Swahili restaurant located in Old Town Mombasa, known for its spacious and enclosed setting. It has gained recognition as a go-to dining option for locals and tourists alike, with affordable prices ranging from $4.5 to $6 per dish. The restaurant's authentic Swahili dishes, particularly the biryani and pilau, have attracted notable figures such as former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta.
...never disappointing. The food here is authentic coastal. The mandazi and baraazi are absolutely the best and delicious with a cup of tea. Parking on the street can be a bit of a problem. Once inside you order your food, pay for it and take a seat. Plenty of tables and chairs available both on the ground floor and upstairs. There is also VIP area.

Barka, once my absolute favorite, has sadly declined. Their prices no longer match the quality, which has significantly decreased. Hygiene is also a concern. With so much competition, a major revamp is needed. The masala chips I recently had were far inferior (and more expensive) than those at other restaurants. Even their breakfast, which I used to love, was awful. This isn't an attack, Barka, but a plea to improve. I've always loved your restaurant and hope you can bring the quality back up to where it was. Currently, I'm very disappointed.

The wait for our meal(s) was not as bad as expected. The only negative thing I experienced here, was the sheer number of flies lingering around, we had to "shoo" them away every thirty seconds to enjoy the food. Other than this one hiccup, this place is a 9/10. Definitely a must come to enjoy yourself.

YÖK The place is great and the views upstairs as well. The food is questionable, very questionable. A local family of entrepreneurs went for a meal on Sunday, and is it enough to say that the food heated in the mixer was partly icy and frozen when served. -wines are, however, of high quality. I also went to eat with a friend once, but that was the last time. When I asked the head waiter, who was a very nice guy, why not get the kitchen under control, he said that you won't get a new chef like this before the turn of the year. I can't help , the Italian was alone, looking angry and anxious, not even greeting his few customers. The health inspector should do a blow to food supplies. Sorry for my bad review but this is true.

The oceanfront eatery, Maasai Beach Bar & Restaurant, boasts breathtaking views of the sea and presents an unparalleled menu showcasing a diverse range of traditional meals. This establishment provides a delectable assortment of nyama choma, barbecued lobsters, pork ribs, and crispy French fries for patrons to indulge in. With its inviting ambiance and amiable personnel, this venue serves as an ideal spot for romantic evening meals or leisurely Sunday gatherings.
I'm not happy with the service at the restaurant. The service time is too long over an 1hr to be served an English Breakfast whilst the place is not packed. The waiter disappears for a very long time without checking if I'm still ok. But what makes matters worse is that on your menu, you do not stipulate the different tea options you have. I was surprised to be served tea premixed with dairy milk without my consent or prior being informed of the options. When I told the waiter that I'm allergic to dairy, they told me that I was supposed to have mentioned prior to ordering that i don't want milk ,bear in mind that no written tea options, no written descriptions of the teas - no waiter asked if you want black tea or with milk. What's visibly shown on the menu is ginger tea. When I asked to speak to the manager they said they weren't available,I asked why, they said they are currently out - imagine. Eventually, another waiter understood & gave me the tea advertised on the menu included in the English breakfast. Recommendation : Write on the menu what the customer should know prior to ordering: 3 tea options: Black ,with milk or ginger tea. Alternatively The waiter must tell the customer: " We have 3 different tea options, black with milk ginger,which 1 would you prefer? Disclaimer, the kitchen staff will mix the milk in your tea for you if you pick this option. Why ? - Its a proactive approach - Reduces friction between myself as a customer and the waiter - My expectations are better managed.

Most pathetic services especially on weekends and poor customer service by staff.Came here at 2.42pm and placed my order it is 4.50pm still waiting for food and no explanation by one waitress Miriam. Worst Staff at Masaa Beach. As repeat I am very disappointed. Today marks the end of my visit and customer loyalty.Never coming back,I value my time .

For some reason l can't get a beach feeling here. It's a parking lot with some eating facility, could be a highway joint rather. Access to the beach is not even possible. What a joke, better places elsewhere....

Restaurant
Situated within the Hotel EnglishPoint & Spa in Mombasa, Karahi Restaurant offers an authentic Awadhi dining experience. The restaurant's expert Chef Rajendra Arya, hailing from Lucknow, India, skillfully recreates the opulence of the Nawabi era using rich ingredients and traditional recipes. This culinary influence has played a significant role in shaping Indian cuisine in Mombasa.
Excellent North Indian food. Ambiance is perhaps a little cold but the setting next to the water is amazing. The service was very friendly and efficient and I cannot fault them in this department (as some of the other reviewers have mentioned).

This Indian restaurant at English point might not be the spot people notice or get attracted to, but it’s worth the attention for its delicious food. The food bursts with spiced flavors. I had their naan and chicken curry, which were so delicious, although the servings might leave you wanting more, but for the price and the service, unfortunately it's not worth the splurge! But it’s worth trying.. The only restaurant I enjoy their service in English point restaurants is MASA

This restaurant was decent- the ambiance is great however the food is mediocre. The chefs style is quite different. He uses a lot of spices in the food so you can really taste a lot of garam masala/ chat masala, etc in every bite. It got too overpowering for me. We were 9 people and here’s what we ordered: Paneer tikka (I don’t recommend) Murgh tikka (recommend) Papdi chaat (recommend - lots of spices though) Aloo chaat (recommend - lots of spices though) Mutton seekh kabab (don’t recommend) Butter chicken (recommend) Dal makhni (don’t recommend) Mango lassi (very delicious) Butter and chilli naan (very delicious) Kesar kulfi (very delicious) Gajar halwa (very delicious) Moong Dal halwa (mediocre) Passion juice (good taste but a bit watered down) Papadum- complimentary starters, great to have with the chutneys! Masala chai was very nice as well Service was good, food all came on time. Waiters were nice. I appreciate the fact that the chef came to our table and asked us how we liked the food and genuinely wanted honest feedback. He was very humble and kind. I recommend this restaurant for those who are a fan of Indian cuisine. Our total came to about 17,000/-, so approximately 1,900/- per person. Decently priced restaurant for the amount we ordered.

Service is a bit of a hit-and-miss but the malai tikka was incredibly flavourful and moist. The virgin dawa cane in a small glass - felt cheated because the virgin piña colada comes in a tall hefty glass. Still, the quality of food is up there and the view from the boardwalk is worth the extra bucks you’d cough up for the food.

I've said it once, I'll proudly say it again! I love indian and chinese food, heck Asian food in general. On that note, it was abso-f@£king-lutely delicious! I took a break from going for my usual chicken (butter) and went into uncharted waters and stumbled upon... The Nihari Gohst!⛈⛈⚡⚡. Which to my surprise was very delicious! That with Naan bread on the side and you'd be transported to stereotypical indian Heaven! I had only two complaints with this establishment: 1. The service was rather slow and inattentive, the former being understandable as the sheer number of customers here is staggering (must be the food) but the latter... disappointing. As we got in to ask if a table for five would be available anytime soon, a waitress simply brushed past us barely even recognising us as Humans! Still could've been due to the customers and the pressure that arises from the orders. 2. The portion of the dishes in question was extremely small, its be enough to fill the tummy of a toddler at best, not the Belly of the Beast. But enjoyable. Overall I may or may not go back here, as the prices here are on the middle of the seesaw, not too cheap, not too expensive! Good spot, good food, meh service. Richard. A

If you're looking for a refreshing escape from the heat and a remedy for yesterday's hangover, MNKafé is your go-to spot! Nestled in the charming Kizingo neighborhood, this café offers a cozy atmosphere with full-blast air conditioning to keep you cool. While it may not serve gourmet dishes or traditional Swahili cuisine, the value for money is unbeatable. The experience at MNKafé is delightful from start to finish.
We wanted to try a new and I'm mad that the people of Kizingo have kept this place all to themselves. We had such an amazing experience here. From the website, they simply have one of the best websites for a restaurant in the country, so informative, straight to the point with pricing and what they're doing. To the way you place your order and get served. We were greeted by the manager and a very friendly waiter. They have this buzzer you press to get assistance, cancel an order or ask for the check. Even though we went during the Eid festivities, when it was packed and very busy, we never felt like we were ignored at any moment. The food was on the table in 20 minutes. We got the Poussin Steak with garlic fries and The Creamy Mushroom Steak with mashed potatoes. Good portions, great presentation and perfectly cooked. We also got a dessert of warm chocolate brownie with ice cream. Which was also fantastic, even came with extra molten chocolate to drizzle on top. The prices are veeery fair for what you get, which is a 10/10 dining experience, with great food and a lovely staff. This place is currently my favourite restaurant in Mombasa. I will definitely be back many more times.

One of the places in Mombasa with a variety of food options to choose from. Their menu is quite detailed (scan the QR code in the photos attached, to get the menu). I love how you write down your order and ring the bell for the waiter to come to your table-no more 'excuse me's. You also ring it to ask for the bill-very cool! The food took around 20-25 minutes for it to be ready and that wasn't too bad. The meal was well done but for the garlic wedges, felt more of blackpepper than garlic and I even forgot to ask if indeed they were garlic or they had mixed up the order. Otherwise, the burger was the bomb🥵 and their waffles also good. Great ambience, great customer service and I'd for sure visit again 👌🏾.

As I came here with a friend of mine who was also a Luo, the food was good but not as good as expected. It's still a good meal though. The tilapia was decent, but didn't taste the freshest, but the rest of the food was alright. The serving sizes was more than generous that I struggled to walk downstairs right after. The service was a bit indifferent, we were mainly left to ourselves. However, if I ever come back to Mombasa again, it's unlikely that I'd stop by here a second time.

I am greatly disappointed today! I have always enjoyed being here. I made an order yesterday 25/7/2025. I called and said what I needed prepared. The meal was to be ready by 4pm today. I went there today, 26/7/2025 a few minutes to 2pm, paid and waited, hoping for the food to be ready by 4pm. At 4pm, one of the staff comes and tells me there was an issue with the fish, just when I was expecting the food on the table. She goes ahead and tells me it will be ready in 5 minutes. I waited for another hour and a half before the food arrived. Curious to know what took more than 3 hours to prepare despite calling a day earlier? Two fish, kachumbari, osuga, ugali and fries. If the owner is reading this, someone has to be reprimanded for this poor service!!!!!!

Li's one of the best Chinese restaurant I have tried in Africa (I am an Asian), the food was delicious. We had - fried beef with brocolli - chicken satay (a bit different from how Asian make it but it still tastes good.) - home cooked tofu pot - fried chicken dumpling (10-12 small pieces) The service is excellent as well as the enironment, a decent Chinese restaurant. Recommend all to go. Price-wise, it is affordable, not too expensive with the quality of food they have.

Few places have come out triumphant in all aspects from food, service, and atmosphere, but Li's Chinese Restaurant in Nyali is truly the exception. The food is delicious, fresh, perfectly seasoned, and packed. They don't over sauce the food to cover bland proteins or carbs. The sweet and sour prawns were absolutely mouth-watering with perfected vegetable rice. The vegetable wonton soup was salted and seasoned lightly to allow the other ingredients to gently tease the pallate for other deliciousness offered on their menu. I also greatly enjoyed the chicken dim sum, steamed not fried. I ordered takeaway for pick-up at 3pm, they were still offering their lunch combos, they stated 20 minutes and 25 minutes later I was enjoying myself 😋 Highly recommend especially for my fellow Americans who are less adventurous in the way of food. Think 'panda express' but miles better!! You can thank me later

Their customer service is top notch. They did not have a kids' menu but the waitress was kind enough to suggest something (chips with chicken lollipop). The food is indeed Chinese, though if you're a real Chinese or need a native Chinese dish try their boiled/steamed range. However, be prepared to pay for a 16% VAT and 2% catering tax not included in the menu price. Let me break this down for you. A bottle of still water goes for 350ksh. Your bill will be 350 + (16% of 350) plus (2% of 350). The tax applies to individual dishes not the whole bill. Their food, if you're two, I'd suggest you order just a single dish and share because you won't finish it alone, lol! Oh, the cutlery is fork and spoon, so don't tense honey! Happy dining, give me a thumbs up or comment if you do try this place.

The restaurant also offers special arrangements for celebrations like birthdays with set menus and decorations.
This is the most serene place I've been to in Mombasa. The views are really breathtaking. The food and drinks are really great also. Pro tip come during midday on a weekday for a less crowded experience. They can work on the entrance part, it's a bit confusing especially for someone who hasn't been there. They should also allow other payment options the last time i was there i had to withdraw money from my Mpesa.

Well, this is not a place I would recommend or go back unless it’s a date and just want to spend the evening drinking a milkshake. I went with my family and we waited and waited before we received any service or food. No one welcomed us, we had to find our way down to the sitting area, which was many stairs down. It was a lot of stairs. Two servers serving 10 tables although it wasn’t busy, yet the service was super slow. Our drinks came after 40 minutes and food after 1.5 hours. The glasses were not sanitized and I drank the water from the bottle itself. The drinks had a straw. It was so hot as there was no breeze, 3-4 fans which didn’t help at all. The waiters were trying but running up and down the stairs was definable taking a toll on them. The food was okay. Whatever we ordered, they were out of 50% of what we ordered, it was the same with the drinks. The menu was limited in terms of availability(they were out of most dishes, including ice hence they couldn’t make the drinks either)

If you are looking for place to smoke a shisha and chill with nice view, you must visit here. If you wanna have some nice foods especially you are hungry, please don’t visit here. I have waited the foods a to be served for 2 hours and you thought the foods were great enough as it was taken long enough to make it, helll nooo it’s just average :) It’s such a waste for such a nice environment without proper management and training of the staffs, maybe they are running out of chefs too! Even though the waiter would remind you there were gonna be some delay of the foods, 2 hours of waiting time was beyond imagination. If it’s a high quality, it’s reasonable.

Like many other coastal bbq joint, rock wall provides decent bbq options. There's a adjacent Italian and Chinese restaurant so that's a plus for the place. Prices are reasonable. The service can be a bit slow though. This wouldn't be my first choice but is a good option for those living in Nyali.

Good location, ambience is okay. Was disappointed with the food, they usually have good food but the Osobucco taste was flat & lacked flavor, mashed potatoes were off too and the wings needed more seasoning. Desserts were good though.

Camels Joint is a delightful culinary haven nestled in Mombasa, Kenya, where the vibrant flavors of coastal cuisine come to life. This charming restaurant offers an inviting atmosphere that attracts both locals and visitors alike. Known for its authentic seafood dishes, patrons can indulge in a variety of fresh options like grilled fish, prawns, and calamari that highlight Kenya's rich culinary heritage.
Despite looking forward to all the great late night food open around my Airbnb, none of them were actually open. This place did not even pop up in Google Maps and it was one of the only two places open in Haile Selasie Road in the middle of the night. So I didn't really expect too much and just wanted to get the food and sleep off my food poisoning. And the fact that the recommended dish was spaghetti bolognaise was surprising, but I ordered it anyway. That was surprising because the portion size was generous, the sauce was wholesome and it really hit the spot. I ended up during my stay in Mombasa to have had this dish twice. Even though I was feeling ill almost the whole time I was there, the food from here made it that much easier.

Ordered in numerous times from grub hub. You can order directly from their website and make your payments. I like that they tend to have combos which bring the price down. It is located next to a small football field along links road. The place is quite small and too close to the road to dine there(according to me) but, great for ordering in if you live along links road, Mt. Kenya road towards the barracks. Their menu is decently priced.

I would have given 5 stars because the food and tea is really good, but I somehow feel cheated. Whenever I go with my boyfriend, we order mutton biryani and the price is 750ksh. Tonight I went alone and ordered the same, mutton biryani. I even pointed to it on the menu. Now the price is 850ksh because they “made a mistake and gave me special biryani”. I know mistakes happen but it’s the second time happening to me when I am ordering it. Why? I told the waiter about the mistake but he just helplessly looked at me and said sorry without offering to change the price, even when I told him it’s the second time that they do that.

They say don't try to fix what's working so I can say the restaurant is very good in most aspects but some things they got it very wrong and needs to improve. Too much oil on polo pizza barely any fresh ingredients and topped with what looks like chicken curry leftover. Probably the worst pizza I've had.

I loved the chicken biryani!! The yogurt sauce was the perfect much with the rice. The chicken doesn’t have bones nor skins, so it was easy to eat.

Dishes plated very well, with fairly generous portions and condiments. From the sushi, with great texture - the raw slices of fish were smooth and not at all chewy, to the tempura prawns that had a crunchy texture, all were well made and were a good compliment to the main course. We had fish and chicken, and it was all quite worth it! Ended with the fried pineapple dessert that is not too sweet. There are some vegetarian options as well, and the service, though slow, is good. As always, English Point offers some scenic views and your meal could very well end with some nice pictures by the seaside.

@englishpointmarina is a must-visit when in Mombasa! With five restaurants and fine dining options, you’re treated to a diverse range of culinary delights throughout the day. From Indian to Japanese to local cuisines, there’s something for everyone. The taste, presentation, and experience are 5 ⭐️ although it’s a bit on the higher price point. But you deserve better, treat yourself! 🍽️🍷 My pasta was divine 😋 😍 ✨️ 😩 and very filling. I was sceptical of the portions, but it was good with mushrooms and chicken. The fries, pizza, meat, and drinks all were as good as they looked. Thin crust for the pizza, tender meat, and the crunchiest fries make the best combo you’d ask for. 🍕🍔🍟 The drinks were nice mwanzo that cucumber mint juice that my cousin had. 🤌🏽🤌🏽 We dined at Margherita restaurant, that’s more contemporary, overlooking the ocean, Old Town, and Fort Jesus, with some of Mombasa’s spectacular sunset views.

Overall, it is worth the money and 5 ⭐️ experience. 🌅🍹 #foodie #foodreview #instafood #foodstagram #foodblog #restaurantreview #mombasaguide #foodlover #mombasafoodscene #MombasaLife #Coastalvibes #LiM #lifeinmombasa #mombasa #localfood #swahili #EnglishPoint #withgalaxy #Islandliving #finedining

Fresh seafood, thoughtful service I had a generous serving of jumbo prawns—they were super fresh and grilled to perfection. The real highlight, though, was the staff. It was pretty late, and I had to work with whatever was available in the kitchen, so seafood by the sea just made sense—and it didn’t disappoint. What really stood out was the room service option. With a toddler in tow (who’s absolutely obsessed with water and would’ve dived right in if given the chance), having dinner delivered was a lifesaver. Great food, great service, and a lot of peace of mind

Margherita restaurant is a pizzeria located within the Marina in Nyali. The Marina is a self contained complex of beach front luxury apartments and hotel that includes a reataurant deck area right on the water front. Margherita is one of about 4 boutique restaurants along the deck. Hands down what makes the location special is that it sits across a clear and charming view of the Fort Jesus and the old town stretch, which is set off to best advantage in the evening. We chose to sit out on the deck (obviously 😊) and the wait service immediately came over to take our order. The restaurant was recommended by a friend who had attended its opening night and said good things about the pizza, I came with the expectation of fresh flavourful pizza and I wasn't terribly let down. We ordered a chicken pizza with pineapples and masala chips, the service was prompt and very helpful. Our food arrived in about 20-30mins but we weren't in a rush and being out on the deck looking out on the ocean and old town was a treat on its own. The pizza was good, fresh ingredients and the chicken was well cooked. The masala chips had sweet and sour hints and a certain interesting chewy crunch to it that I thoroughly enjoyed. I think the whole meal set us back about $20 including a tip which was more than worth it. Ps. The Marina is not wheelchair accessible but I asked and you are allowed to use the back service gate and park behind the restaurant to access the deck directly.

Had dinner here a few times with coworkers. Large variety of pizzas, friendly staff, awesome owners. They weren’t quite open, but shared some of their pizzas. We enjoyed so much, we tried to order pizzas as we knew what they could do. Had to eat Indian cuisine (also delicious) from next door. Wishing you all the best going forward. Will be back.

Spaghetti and ground beef was the bomb! Very delicious and the drink was amazing as well

The pizza is small and thin. The cheese, tomato sauce, and toppings tasted very low quality. Was disappointed to say the least

Not sure where to start, but the service is really bad. Just two of us and I finished my food before the other person's was even brought in. We had to ask three times to have the gospel music stopped and apparently we disappointed the staff as from that moment on the service became even worst. Not a place I'd come back to.
