The waiter began arguing with our guest because he passed his menu to his wife and suggested that the ladies should be served first. The waiter was crude with the way he served us. The prosciutto pizza has cooked ham and not prosciutto. The crème brûlée was a scrambled egg with burnt sugar and not caramelised sugar. It turns out... More

This place does the most innovative and lip smacking Italian fare in town Their specials have very interesting options However what disappointed me last time round at their new Gigiri branch was that when we ordered our preferred Kenyan Beer from Sierra Brewery the waiter said that they had stopped stocking it; half way through our meal we saw that...

Must go! excellent italian food in a quaint atmosphere. Love it, highly recommended for those who love italian. I only tried the pasta dishes though, so not sure about the rest of the food. Wine a bit pricy, and not the best selection. Stick to beer while in Kenya More

I was surprised that this wasn't in the top 10 Trip Advisor in Nairobi. The food is consistently good, the quality is consistently good and the service excellent. The menu is vast with a good, fresh, home-made pizza section. I don't think you can go far wrong and would happily recommend it. More

One of the waiters at this restaurant came to know us very well. The dishes at this place are amazing! The ambiance is super fun (don't let the questionable appearance from the street deter you). Once you are inside it feels like an Italian oasis in the middle of Nairobi. The first time I went I had a prawns and... More

Been there many times over the past few years. previous reviewer was clearly unlucky as I have not encountered any of their problems. always had decent food there, they have a number of specials that change monthly and everyone can find something to their taste. very good selection of wine ( prices on the higher side however) service is normally...

The Mediterraneo Restaurant in Westlands was probably once a chick place for Italian cuisine but unfortunately, since the Management are now targeting other less degraded spots of Nairobi, quality of food and service leave a lot to be desired. We visited Mediterraneo last Saturday lunchtime for a pizza and were suitably pleased with the surroundings etc until we were served... More

Good food, well presented, excellent service - first rate primitivo. Late opening too, if you've just pitched out of the cinema. Nice decor but not exactly quaint. It is in a shopping centre after all. More

I am a regular customer at the Junction branch. I find that food and service is better at the Junction than at its sister branch in Westlands. Recently, I visited the one in Westlands and it was so awful. The service was slow. I ordered steak which was too salty but the worse was the accompanying rice which wasn't cooked... More
