Went to this restaurant with 8 friends and we all had an amazing time. The atmosphere, food, and service were all top quality. Although the restaurant was a bit expensive I would highly recommend stopping by here if you are in Nairobi.

I've been to a lot of tourist traps in my day but this has to be one of the worst. I don't even know where to begin to describe how awful this place is. The food is blech. The prices are outrageous. The only guests in this restaurant are tourists - take a hint from that. We got dumped here... More

Wow! I ate so much meet, and so many different types of meet. I enjoyed every bite and if I would have gone later on in the evening on that weekend I hear there would have been entertainment. The only entertainment I needed was the food. I was a little dissapointed by the selection of exotic meets. Not to many... More

This restaurant is one that you have to try if ever in Nairobi. It's a real experience for dinner that you will never forget. I was fortunate as there was several birthdays, and the staff make a special African show to celebrate them and that was great. Totally recommended.

It is an ''historical'' restaurant in Nairobi where you can eat easily all kind of meat you can find in Africa. I have been there many times in the last 10 years and I have to say that level of service it is always good together with the quality of the meat, really high quality. You can eat as much... More

On our first day in Kenya we went to this restaurant and liked it very much. Could have been also the newness of it all, but we had fun on the outdoor terrace, ate all sorts of types of meat, drank fruit drinks and, all in all, had a great experience. Also, it is very reasonably priced

If you love meat this is the place to eat!!!! We went there had a Tusker and let the meat come to us. The staff walk around with swords that have a large chunk of whatever animal is cooking the meat was delicious.

Came here with my wife whilst on business trip. Great service. Be brave and try all the meats you probably won't get a chance elsewhere. sides are a bit limited but hence the name carnivore. A great place meat lovers like us.
