International restaurants in Kenya

  1. A

    Old Man and the Sea

    Definitely the daddy of Malindi's restaurants, this old Moorish house on the seafront really has no competition in its class. The food's superb, service is attentive, you can get decent wine by the glass and the guestbook is effusive and entertaining reading - apparently Tupac Shakur returned from the grave to eat here. A 16% VAT charge is added to the bill.

    Beneve Coffee House

    A small self-service chop shop that has locals queuing outside in the mornings waiting for it to open. Food ranges from stews to curries, fish and chips, samosas, pasties and a host of other choices, all at low, low prices.

    Florence Restaurant

    Housed within the glam Imperial Hotel, Florence is renowned as Kisumu's best restaurant. The poached Nile perch is lovely, as are the chicken Kiev and mutton masala.

    Fiesta Restaurant & Bar

    Despite the Latin resonances of a Hispanic name and bright adobe-style décor, the brand-new Fiesta doesn't have anything remotely Tex-Mex on offer, concentrating instead on a fine selection of upmarket international dishes. Staff are smiley and almost unnervingly eager to please, and the chefs do themselves particular credit on some very un-Kenyan recipes such as nasi goreng and pork chops with a honey and mustard glaze. The popular bar area occasionally hosts low-key live crooners.
