Nautilus

We have been here before and really enjoyed the food and service. So finding ourselves back in Kilifi, we just had to go back to what is by far our favourite restaurant in Kenya. Service great, food amazing, ambiance stunning and no nasty surprise at the end of the meal. So if you find your self in or near Kilifi, book a table and enjoy Nautilus. You will not regret it.

We are down in Kalifi for for the weekend, for a friend's birthday. We hired a boat and crossed the creek for Saturday lunch at Kilifi Boatyard. The food was as good as ever, the beers and wine were cold and we had a great time with some very friendly locals. If you are in that part of the world on a Saturday lunch, do your selves a favour and call in. You might even be surprised with a plate of Oysters on the house.

A stunning location, with the restaurant tables in the white sands, looking out through palm trees onto the Indian Ocean and the coral reef just off-shore - idyllic!The food was really very good. I had Red Snapper with a pineapple salsa - wonderful, perfectly cooked and absolutely fresh, other dishes included calamari, and a wild mushroom tagliatelle - both very good. We got a sharing plate of starters that included a sailfish crostini, Chilli calamari, and feta cheese samosas. Perfect.Service was very friendly and professional. Wait time for food was spot on. A wonderful lunch. Well done!This place is well worth a visit if you are staying in Vipingo or Kilifi. Its a little hidden away, so get good instructions or take a taxi!

The moment i stepped out of the car, i was in love with this place. Its a poet's delight, a painter's canvas, a writer's inspiration.What a stunning view of the creek. One gets mesmerised and so did i. We just went to see this place and ended up having biting and fruit juice.A must visit for those who come to Mombasa to plonk on the sofa with a glass of fresh juice and enjoy the panoramic view of the creek and beyond.Masood KheraluwalaDAR GUIDE
