Discover Restaurants offering the best Mediterranean food in Malindi, Coast Province, Kenya. Portuguese explorer Vasco de Gama stopped at Malindi on his way to India in 1498 and erected a pillar that remains overlooking the harbor, however precariously, to this day. Still popular with Europeans, Malindi is famed for coral reefs that lie just 1,000 feet off its shore, best seen at Malindi National Marine Park or nearby Watamu. Game fishing, surfing and simply relaxing on the beach are popular local pastimes. The narrow streets and market of Malindi's old town are worth a visit.

I popped into Putipu for a meal. I was disappointed to learn that my favourite meal, chicken shawarma, was no longer on the menu; being under a new management that revised the menu offerings. I settled for chips and chicken cooked with olives and red wine. It was a hearty and delicious meal, and the serving was an extra large portion, though I still prefer the chicken shawarma and I hope it is brought back to the menu! The staff are friendly, but the service is very slow.

The rooms are big, with an interesting view, some in the garden.or sculpture or at the side the beach. The breakfast was a bit poor, for this hotel. The evening dinner ok, but nothing special.It was not our hotel style.

The food is a extraordinary! You can choose between different dishes (Buffet). The chefs are genius - especially in african and italian kitchen.Every meal is fantastic. Depending which fresh fish they have (tuna, kingfish, octopus, red or white snapper), the kitchen creates with spices an unique taste of this individual dinner! But the beef, chicken or vegetarian food is also very good!Highly recommendable!

We recently enjoyed a pleasant lunch here. We had hoped for a few more dishes that included some seafood, as the sea is just near, but failing that settled on pizzas.Both were very good, but not really what we were looking for at the coast.Ice creams after were also delicious.Thanks for your review and to appreciate Osteria but i dont understand very well about "where is the fish...". We have many options about fish and seafood in our menu: 11 starters, 2 soup, 3 salad, 8 pasta dish, 3 risotto, 22 main cours with fish or seafood, 10 pizza... for a total of 59 dishes with fish and/or seafood, plus all the other dishes with meat and for vegetarians... You are most welcome

La Rosada is my worst type of restaurant to review. Not breathtakingly awesome but also far from bad. Upon arrival in Malindi and in search of adventure, La Rosada popped up on my Tripadvisor search, less than 200m from our hotel, off Casuarina Road. The intimate restaurant enjoys sea breezes from the patio, also allowing you to laze the day away on one of many sunbeds.We ordered our food and were treated with focaccia while we waited.Kids ordered pizza, which was beautifully thin and crispy. I opted for frito misto, mixed deep fried seafood. Decently made but I won't be craving it like a methadone patient.Service was efficient, with a good selection of drinks.Beyond that, La Rosada puzzles me. A great location, decent service, decent food but lacking something to catapult it into greatness.

The KB Karen Blixen, in the historic square of the Center Galana in Malindi.Bar, Restaurant open for breakfast, open for lunch and dinner from 11am to 11pm.Typical Italian cuisine, swuaili, pizza.
Was really hesitant to eat here because of some reviews, but decided to try ourselves. We had lobster pasta, penne in marinara and a veggie pizza. All were very good. The pizza had a very nice crust, good sauce and real mozzarella! All this may sound like what you should expect, but obviously, it's not the norm for Africa, and it's a rare treat to find when you've had your fill of curries and chapati. We really appreciated the change, and that it was done right here... very much enjoyed this restaurant!

Really wonderful and fresh Italian food, inspired by the sea. Red snapper ravioli was wonderful - the noodles and sauce tasted homemade and delectable. The grilled seafood skewers were perfect, alongside three veggie sides. Chips were an unnecessary addition. Gelato was so, so good! Altogether a nice break from strictly African food. Service was a bit spotty, but suited me fine as a solo diner. The authenticity of the food was underscored by the number of Italians dining. Only actual irritation was the loud 80s music - but that seems to be common everywhere in Malindi...
