This restaurant truly deserves more than 5stars from the friendly staff to the management taking care of you every step of your meal ,the menu has lots of varieties and excellent vegetarian options ,the potions are out of this world when i tell you breakfast was the last meal i had and i couldn’t finish my meal ,the soft Indian music transports you to another place as you enjoy your food The meal i had was recommended to me by the staff and my god the lamb was soft ,juicy and tender every single spoon you take bursts with flavour i asked for medium spicy and i got medium spicy the desert just hit the right spot not overly sweet and if you are in Mombassa visit shehnai restaurant and you will love it whether you are dining alone or with friends this is the place to go from my observation for couples the restaurant is a great date night spot my overall experience was great the food wait time was small and i had a good time surely will be back thank you (Note:If you want cant finish your meal ask and it will be neatly packed for you )

Great location in the middle of the CBD with a chill ambience. Good for meetings and conversation.
Great food, absolutely loved it. Value for money.
Great service, attentive and hands-on staff
Highly recommended!
Such an amazing experience. Food was so tasty (so much so a review had to be written). Service was A+. Presentation of the food was beautiful (you can tell they put a lot of attention to detail in decor and presentation).

Must visit place in Mombasa town.
Want to find a better Indian briyani in Mombasa come to this hotel.
Atmosphere was elegant, service was very good. Health and hygiene was highly practiced.
Cleaning your hand with a hot towel with the natural elements was a innovative practice I haven't seen before.
At the end of your meal you will find a natural supari / mouth fresher / digestive agent will give superb finish.
We had lunch here during a trip to Kenya in 2018. The chai was the best I’ve ever had. I’m so glad to see it is still open!

They are closed on monday. So i went there on tuesday. My reception was great and the welcomed me with greetings and smile. In entrance i saw a lot of certificates hanged on the wall which this restaurant received as an award by recognized travle companies around the world. Like hospitality industry, tripadvisor, other safari and tourism bodies and they looked amazing to me. Interior is very nice and they serve people onntable ala karte. Due to covid 19 siguation i did not found other customers othar than me at that time. The waiter brought mene card and i started reading, more than 100 different varity of dishes were listed on that card and price was reasonable. Most of the food items were from asian cuisine and i requested for hyderabadi biryani. The manager suggested me to order one of their best biryani called swahili biryani and i accepted the offer. Both costed the same. After waiting for 15 minutes they served me biryani with coca cola, chutnyies and curd. I asked for spicy biryani and they did meet my requirement. I liked the taste of it so much that i decided to write this review. I enjoyed instrumental music in the background and liked the ambiance of the dining hall. The painings of old times touched me and antique collection it items mesmerized me. This restaurant met my expectation and like to visit them again. I requested for bill and they brought mouth freshener with vill. I felt very happy about this lunch. Thanks team shahnai.
