On the Grid : Juniper Kitchen

"A bit country yet urban in its styling, Juniper Kitchen's rustic style uses reclaimed crates for seating. Enjoy some "bbq" style food ("the Kenyan way"). It's a good spot to cool off, hang out with mates in their outdoor restaurant." - New Colony Studio

The 20 Best Restaurants in Nairobi, Kenya | Eater

"This food hall is the epitome of cool, with a variety of vendors ranging from a fine-dining Portuguese wine bar to a hip taco spot. It has become an Instagram darling thanks to walls splattered with urban Kenyan art and graffiti, especially the mural that proclaims: “I licked it, so it’s mine.” There’s also a shop on site featuring local artisans, and dance events throughout the week, such as a Thursday Latino Night." - Wendy Watta

This is arguably the most fun place in Nairobi, at least among those that we visited during our weekly trip there. The place is a remodeled loft with all the hipster vibe that comes with these words. It has many local food and item vendors, a big open terrace, a proper dance floor, and a functioning nightclub on the second floor. The atmosphere is top-notch, created by a mixture of local flexers and expats. As for food, we tried a little bit from four different corners, no complaints! Can especially compliment the Al Pastor tacos – finger-licking good! The drinks menu is super big, be sure you'll find something there. Overall, super good place, strongly recommend!

The experience was great. And the food was greater. I loved the atmosphere here, perfect for a night out with your friends. And there's also plenty of selection when it comes to menus and restaurants. The atmosphere is energetic, and apparently, people there don't get tired of dancing😅 On the downside, I found the waitstaff to be quite slow. Anyways, I would 100% recommend.

This place is gold in Nairobi. I was staying round the corner for two weeks on a business trip. Stopping here for either dinner or for a drink was just perfect. Really loved all of it all the times. The ladies washrooms with African legendary women who have made the difference in the world featured on the toilets’ doors is a great feature.

I will never be coming back to this place. First of all, the Security is so rude, as the silly woman went through my purse, it was like as if she was rumbling through rubbish. Putting her hands all over everything that’s inside. Really irritating. The waitresses here are so slow. They tell you the food will come in 15 minutes and it comes in 45 minutes. Not to mention the food was mediocre. I tried many things. Thai food, Steak, burger and even Indian food. Everything was average. I had a 10,000 shilling bill and I was very unhappy. The waitress brought the wrong dish and then told me that it’ll be replaced within the next five minutes. That five minutes turned into half an hour. I ended up not having any food while my whole family had already finished all their meals , the service is slow, understaffed. The toilets are not clean. This seems like the perfect place to go to if you’re drunk !! I actually came here because they advertise that they were selling lobster rolls. I am a seafood lover. I was very very disappointed to find out that they had updated the menu and removed Lobster. It makes me question why they’re still advertising it. Fishing for clients? I also got an upset tummy as I returned home from this horrendous meal. I don’t recommend it. This is a place to go clubbing. It is not the type of setting for a family to come and have dinner. The only good thing about this place was the aesthetics, it was very artistic

A place for a bunch of street food options, in particular can recommend buttred buns option (chimichurri burger). They also have little cute shops to buy souvenirs. Very nice!

There so many restaurants within this place. Plenty of options to choose from. I had dinner at spilt milk. The hummus dish was good. Spaghetti was average. Service was extremely slow. 40 minutes for my spaghetti to arrive.

I wanted to love it... I really did because the vibes are immaculate: gorgeous setting, and the single menu, street food court concept is attractive. I wandered in during lunch, and everyone just seemed to pass time, tending to the very few clients in the space! I waited 30-40 mins for my tacos, and they came out warm-ish... Service was friendly, if a bit inattentive. The fermented purple cabbage in my tacos did not look or taste fresh, hence again making me question how much traffic they get during daytime. The corn tortillas however were legit and the fish also ok. I finished it off with an excellent affogato... Probably the place comes alive at night! I might try it again during the day on week-ends and see if the place/ people are more active.

This street food market, offering a wide variety of dishes from ten different countries, is located in Westlands. In addition to the restaurants, there are some interesting shops featuring high-quality local products, as well as a barber. On the upper floor, there’s a space designated for music and cultural events, which I didn’t get to see—it’s said to be especially lively on Thursdays. It’s certainly an interesting place; however, similar concepts can now be found in most major cities around the world. Worth a visit one evening while in Nairobi, but not much more than that
