It is worth going to The Lawns for a chance to enjoy excellently prepared, tender game meat of various kinds. The setting is fabulous with ample outdoor seating. The service was very good, although they did make an error on my order. The food was still very delicious and I plan to go back in a couple weeks and try... More

Never did I think a cab driver could be so spot on in a recommendation! I should have tipped him better! The Lawns in Kampala was an unbelievable experience! When in Uganda, one wants to experience the local game, and we were not disappointed with the gorgeous atmosphere and lavish banquet of this gem. We had a smorgasbord of game... More

The Lawns is my favorite restaurant in Kampala. The food is consistently excellent and the service is prompt and friendly. I love the green spacious environment. Kids will enjoy chasing the resident rabbits around. I love that there is no music playing...makes it a great place to go to socialize with friends under the shade of the trees. I only... More

One thing that really drove me there in the first place was the menu, I've always wanted to test crocodile. I'm one of those people who like to try new things. The crocodile was very nice,... More

Last week my friend and I took an exotic vacation to Kampala, Uganda. We had heard good things about the restaurant from other vacationers who visited Kampala so we decided to visit it ourselves. We visited on a Monday and made a reservation for 5 pm. The restaurant staff is very friendly and there is a wide variety on the... More

I got the chance to eat at this restaurant as my husband and I were traveling for some time to ourselves for once. I was a little skeptical at the beginning because I never had tried any “exotic” meats before. I have always been a chicken and beef woman, but I was so ready to try something new! But my... More
