Meko

"Nestled on the vibrant Peponi Road in the bustling city of Nairobi, Kenya, Meko Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience within the elegant confines of the Kwetu Nairobi, part of the esteemed Curio Collection by Hilton hotel. inviting guests to indulge in a menu that is available throughout the day, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. From the moment you step through the entrance, the staff greets you with warmth and sincerity, creating a welcoming atmosphere that extends well into the dining area, ensuring that every guest feels valued and attended to. It is worth mentioning that making a reservation ahead of your visit is highly recommended, as this popular restaurant tends to attract a sizable crowd, particularly during peak hours. As the seasons change, it is important to prepare for the cooler weather—especially during the cold season—by bringing along a warm jacket, as the chill can be quite surprising at times. While my overall experience with the food was satisfactory, with nothing particularly extraordinary that stood out, it certainly met my expectations for a decent meal. However, one aspect that truly left an impression was the restaurant's atmosphere. The décor is nothing short of impressive, featuring stunning sculptures and intriguing artistic elements that create an inviting and visually captivating space. This family-oriented establishment is well-equipped to cater to guests of all ages, complete with a swimming pool where both kids and adults can enjoy refreshing splashes of fun and relaxation. Cleanliness appears to be a priority at Meko Restaurant, as evidenced by the immaculate state of the dining areas and washrooms. The restrooms were maintained to such a high standard that one could comfortably sit down without hesitation, and the inclusion of a handicap-accessible washroom exemplifies the establishment's commitment to ensuring that the needs of every guest are thoughtfully considered. Furthermore, guests can feel secure in the well-monitored surroundings, as the security measures in place are robust, providing peace of mind while dining or enjoying the amenities. The ample parking space available nearby alleviates any concerns about where to leave your vehicle, ensuring that your visit is as stress-free as possible."

"The service and atmosphere especially in the outdoor sitting was really good and was really calming experience in Nairobi. I can’t thank enough Anita for her hospitality at Meko as well. Made the experience much better and her suggestions as well!"

"Meko should be on every foodie's list. I promise the hype is real. The food was amazing. We had a taste of every starter on the menu and each one was so good! Their calamari is definitely the best I've tasted so far. The main course was so filling, most of us had trouble clearing our plates. It gets quite chilly by the pool, so while the view is amazing, it's safer to sit inside especially in the evening. The service was great. We felt a bit rushed in the beginning because items would be cleared from the table before we were done, but once the staff realized we were not in a hurry, they slowed things down. All in all, a worthwhile culinary experience."

"Meko delivers a thoughtful and enjoyable dining experience with an open kitchen that lets you see the chefs in action and a raw bar serving fresh, well prepared seafood. Breakfast is a highlight, with dishes made to order using ingredients you choose. In the evening, the restaurant takes on a relaxed Mediterranean and Aegean feel, offering simple, flavourful dishes inspired by Spain, Greece, and Lebanon. Quality ingredients, fresh herbs, and balanced flavours make Meko a great spot for both daytime dining and dinner. #EatOutApproved!"

"Really lovely setting by the pool, especially at night when smoke comes from the pool and flickering lights on the bottom of the pool. However the food should be 5 star but it's not. The lamb burger was very nice but the lamb steak was so tough it had to be sent back. The lamb kebabs were so small they should only be on the starter menu. Really should be better to match the beautiful hotel and surroundings"
