This was my very first time dining at the Zarda Cafe and I must say that it was an amazing experience. The ambiance, the service and the food were exceptional. Our server was super. She was very patient, kind, respectful as well as knowledgeable about all of the items on the menu. The recommended dishes exceeded our expectations. Thank you for an amazing experience. We will be back when in KE.

So we visited Zarda on a Friday evening & had a wonderful time dining at this Swahili restaurant. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with decor that beautifully reflected coastal culture. The food was flavorful and authentic especially the pilau and coconut based dishes, which were perfectly spiced and aromatic. The service was attentive and friendly, making the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. It’s a place I’d happily return to!

I tried the vegetable and wet fry, they were superb🤤 They have variety of dishes including local kenyan dishes, swahili dishes and indian too, I will be trying their curry and naan next time😊

We were the first people in the restaurant waiting for almost 45 minutes and the waiter served a table of 6 people their food before us even though we ordered before they even sat down. We ordered beef pilau and beef biryani with passion fruit juice. Honestly the Beef Biryani was bad, rice wasn’t authentic only thing added was food color and maybe salt. The beef added was a mushy pile with VERY chewy and inedible pieces of “meat”(tendon). Pilau was decent with more edible pieces of meat. Passion fruit juice was cold and natural tasting. Tables and chairs looked great and new and design or restaurant was great. Very open, not crowded.
