bamba — Restaurant in Nairobi

Bamba is a delightful spot for anyone looking to enjoy great food in a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. The menu is thoughtfully curated, offering a variety of dishes that cater to diverse tastes. Their pizza stands out for being perfectly made, with a great balance of flavors and, thankfully, no pineapple topping for those who prefer a more traditional take. Every slice is a testament to quality ingredients and skillful preparation.

The hummus is an absolute highlight — creamy, flavorful, and served with warm pita bread, it’s a must-try for anyone visiting Bamba. Their falafel is equally impressive, and the accompanying sauces are perfectly paired to elevate the overall experience. Another dish worth mentioning is the spicy sausages, which pack just the right amount of heat and savory flavor.

The ambiance at Bamba is lively yet laid-back. The setting is family-centric, making it a great place to bring kids, yet it also has a romantic side, making it a wonderful spot for a date. The live band and well-curated music add to the atmosphere without being overwhelming, creating the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal. The décor is simple but tasteful, allowing the focus to remain on the food and company rather than unnecessary frills.

Overall, Bamba is a fantastic restaurant that seamlessly blends delicious food, a welcoming environment, and a touch of entertainment. Whether you’re there for a family outing or a date night, it’s...

I'm a frequent customer to this place and i like the ambiance and the food, service is amazing. Unfortunately last week on Saturday i had a very bad experience with one of the intoxicated customers. Immediately we sat at the counter he touched my colleague inappropriately and she made it clear not to touch her. He did it a second time and we requested if we can be given another table as we wait for our food, unfortunately the place was fully booked so that's the only table that was available. The client began to make some inappropriate, misogynist and insensitive comments which was really inappropriate. As professionals we ignored the client and continued to have our conversation. What profound me is the way the waiters and a few waitresses at the counter were laughing at the insensitive comments the client was making about us, actually they found him funny and one waitress who I do not remember her name she came and promised to get us an alternative table once its available. She was really nice to us, big up to her.

In future, I strongly urge you to provide clear training for your staff on how to respond when such incidents occur, including how to support those targeted and how to address the behavior with the offending parties. Supporting respectful and inclusive behavior is not only the right thing to do—it also reflects the values of a business that cares about...

What a uniquely horrible experience.

I went to Bamba on Sunday with a group of 6 people. The location is gorgeous with adequate parking and beautiful grounds. But that's where all the positives end.

We were attended to by Mary who was incredibly rude. We started by ordering appetizers and it seemed like she thought we could not afford the restaurant because she rolled her eyes and said "That's it? That's all you're ordering?" Well it is now!!! She proceeded to ignore us for the rest of the night, we would try and flag her down and she would act like she hadn't seen us.

Eventually we just gave up and wanted to leave. We were so annoyed by her rude behaviour. Some of the members of our table went to the car as two of us stayed back to pay the bill. We requested for the pdq machine to pay and when she brought it she asked where the rest of our party had gone because they needed to pay their bill, implying that they had dined and dashed, even though we had stayed back to pay the bill for the table

It was an awful evening and I would not recommend...
