Pango is without doubt the best restaurant in Nairobi (in its style). If you're looking for Indian food or Italian you'll be disappointed of course but if you are looking for really good fine dining food, you wlll not be disappointed! From the moment you walk in you feel the atmosphere and the tranquile. It is just a pleasure to... More

Everything begins and ends with service. Perhaps this is a function of being in Nairobi for a while now, but the service here puts every other place in Nairobi to shame. The food is great, but it's really pricey. It is a great place for a special occasion. The ambiance at Fairview is also great as they have a beautifully... More

My friends and I were a bit confused when we visited Pango on its great reviews. We enjoyed mid week cocktails in the lounge and watched semi naked girls dance. None of which was mentioned by any of the previous reviewers. It turns out that there are TWO Pangos! One on Moi Av (strip club one side/actual club the other)... More

An absolute MUST for foodies! Completely unexpected experience in the middle of Africa. Michelin worthy food and service. Fantastic wine selection. Pricey, but soooo worth it.

the ambience was very tranquil. great service. food was amazing - except for the ravioli which was a bit raw. the only thing about it is that it doesnt have prices on the menu... so when you get the bill its a bit of a shocker... would go back again though.

Unfortunately Pango seems to be wallowing in some halcyon age of 1950s paternalism. The management and waiters are apparently oblivious of the idea that my wife could earn more than me and present us with a menu with prices (for him) and a menu without prices (for her), on the understanding that money is too rough a subject for the...

I've been to Pangos a few times and it has always impressed. The food is delicious, prepared in a french style and the service is excellent. I recommend ordering tea at the end of the meal and enjoying the complimentary desert treats!

This restaurant which is also open to other visitors as hotel guest is one of the best restaurants which I experienced in Africa. This restaurant is at a higher price level but the quality meets the best european standards and for the service it even exceeds this standard. Highly trained and friendly employees in the restaurants. We already visited this... More

we had dinner 2x in this gastronomic restaurant the whole service and as we say tralala is good but the actual food is medium, the flavors are weak and the meat is floating in sauces... it is still far from a modern gastronomic experience maybe due to the fact that the availability in nairobi from high quality ingredients is still...
