Our story

A grill that started with one jiko

Kuni Kitchen & Bar is a place in Kilimani for nyama choma, long lunches and Friday-night music.

We cook with Kenyan ingredients, from highland greens to coastal spices, and everything comes off the fire when it's ready, not before.

“Good food is just fire, patience and people you like.”
Chef Daniel & the Kuni Kitchen & Bar family
