We went to the Salty Squid for dinner with a large group, it's a very nice restaurant with a lively atmosphere. The best dishes of the night were the Swahili... read more prawn curry, sticky pork and the seared yellowfin tuna. However, the mango snapper felt a bit plain and could benefit from extra seasoning. For dessert we got the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream and the chocolate brownie tiramisu which were both really good. The staff was friendly. Be sure to book ahead as this restaurant is very popular and busy.

the location is perfect, the atmosphere is great and the staff is always welcoming and kind. I have been here multiple times in the past and recently. The food was great in... read more terms of flavor. However, unfortunately, both myself and my partner and I got sick twice, but only after eating the shrimp tacos and the shrimp pasta. Surprisingly, the prawn curry was ok. Which was heartbreaking because we loved everything else about this place, including the drinks and the staff. Hopefully, they will do something about the shrimp situation.

Great spot but could use more seating. The place was in such high demand on the 1st after NYE, we didn't get a place to have a meal. Instead, we ordered... read more takeaway. Was bummed that we didn't get the full experience my friend and I had gone for. The front of desk were very kind and allowed us to walk to the beach while our food was being prepared! Couldn't fault this place except for the lack of space! 😊 Food was lovely, as always, and good value for money. I ordered a Tuna Poke Bowl and Chilli Prawn tacos. Very, very, filling! Looking forward to going again! It had been a while.

From the salt and pepper squid to the burgers to the prawn linguine to the tacos, everything is divine!! Must visit if you're ever in Diani!!

We were asked to leave at 2pm after we had reserved to dine from 12pm. Reason, they had other customers booked at the same table at 4pm. Now, is it easier... read more to cancel a reservation 2 hours earlier or chase away already paying customers?? We had only had drinks and starters. Yaani we asked Allan, the manager, for a solution and he asked us to leave yet there were several walk ins! They ought to work on their communication and customer service since this was not communicated when we called to make a reservation. Also you park at the hotel's parking lot at your own risk!! Edit, Reply: why are you lying!! Look at the time the receipt was generated!! 14:54:30. This was after we had a conversation with Allan. Also, didn't we ask whether it's okay to go to the beach then come back to which you said it was okay!? At 4:30pm we were happily seated at The sands at nomad. FYI, we spent exactly 30 minutes at the beach after out drinks and starters. If you had communicated about your time restrictions when we reserved the night before, we would not have shown up.

Fantastic customer service—5/5! The staff were welcoming and pleasant. I ordered the Dawa cocktail, and I genuinely think it’s the best one on the menu. Also ordered other cocktails which hit... read more the spot The atmosphere was amazing, with beautiful details and vibrant plush pillows that added a great touch. Food was also top-notch—5/5!
