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.

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.

I went here at the end of a film shoot with the crew, it was a great experience, particularly trying giraffe and crocodile and other game meats - one of our party was vegetarian and had a sad time, I'm afraid

I love my food, no doubt about that. I especially love meat, more so if it is well cooked! The experience I had at the Carnivore was truly memorable. The food is in plenty and tasty! The waiters are all very pleasant and efficient in their duties. I really cannot capture in words the good experience I had there. To... More
