Talisman Restaurant
Address: 320 Ngong Road, Karen, Nairobi, Kenya
Located in Nairobi’s upscale Karen neighborhood just down the road from Karen Shopping Centre, Talisman Restaurant is a great place for lunch or dinner. It is popular with local and expats from all over the world, as well as with visitors to Nairobi.
Lunch guests at Talisman Restaurant can enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of the outdoor patio and garden while dining on excellent meat or vegetarian dishes. In the evening, there are lots of small indoor rooms, smoking and non-smoking, where you can enjoy international cuisine and wine.
The food at Talisman Restaurant in Nairobi consists of a large range of dishes from all over the world. The Thai and Indian are particularly good, as are the vegetarian options. Particularly good are the corriander and feta samosas with chili dipping sauce, the Thai coconut chicken with rice, and the chicken tikka kebabs with rice, naan, and yogurt and tamirind dipping sauces. Most main dishes at Talisman cost around 1000 KES.
The Talisman restaurant is great! I have visited the place twice now and have a had a lovely experience both times. The decor is unique but cosy, the service was discreet yet attentive, and the food was delicious. You should book if you are going for dinner, as it gets quite busy, and you want to avoid disappointment. Try the feta samosas, or the quail with wine sauce, and the chocolate mousse-all I can say is :’heaven can wait’!!!
