Last weekend, I finally decided to visit Romo House Restaurant & Lounge, a chic and cozy spot located at Romo House Africa, Muthithi Road, Nairobi, Kenya. I had heard great things about their mix of luxury and affordability, so I was eager to see if it lived up to the hype.
Upon arrival, I was impressed by the stylish ambiance and the ample parking, which can accommodate over 50 cars. It’s always nice to start a dining experience without the stress of finding a parking spot. The restaurant had a lively yet relaxed atmosphere, perfect for food lovers and couples alike.
The friendly service was evident right from the start. As soon as I was seated, they brought me my still water without me even having to ask. This small but thoughtful touch made me feel welcomed. I later learned from another review that this is a regular practice at Romo, and it truly sets a warm tone for the meal.
I decided to go for their signature creative cuisine, starting with the delectable truffle pasta, which was a delight to my taste buds. Priced at around KES 1,200, it was rich and flavorful, perfectly al dente, and dressed in a creamy truffle sauce that didn’t overwhelm. The portion size was generous, making it a great value for the price.
For my main course, I couldn't resist trying the grilled salmon, priced at approximately KES 2,500. It was cooked to perfection — tender, flaky, and bursting with flavor, resting on a bed of sautéed vegetables. The presentation was immaculate, making it a visual treat as well.
Throughout my visit, I had the pleasure of being served by Maureen, whose warmth and enthusiasm added to my dining experience. She handled our requests with professionalism and a genuine smile, making me feel like a valued guest. It’s heartwarming to see staff members who genuinely care about their customers.
As I wrapped up my meal with a richly flavored dessert, I couldn't help but reflect on what a lovely experience it was. Romo House Restaurant truly lives up to its reputation of offering luxury at affordable prices. Whether you're here for a romantic dinner or just a night out with friends, the cozy setting paired with high-quality food and excellent service makes it a must-visit.
