Our Story

Sweet n Pilipili rooftop restaurant ambiance

Our Story

Born from a Passion for Bold Flavours

Sweet n Pilipili was born from a simple dream — to create a space where bold Indian spices meet beloved Kenyan cooking traditions, served high above the Nairobi skyline with views to match the food.

Nestled on the 5th floor of Broadwalk Mall on Ojijo Rd, our rooftop restaurant has grown into one of Nairobi's most beloved dining destinations. Every dish we serve carries the warmth, care, and fiery spirit that defines who we are — "pilipili" means chili, and spice runs through everything we do.

From our SNP Special Mix Platter to the lake-fresh Kisumu Tilapia, we source quality ingredients, cook with intention, and serve with pride. Whether you're here for a casual lunch, a romantic rooftop dinner, or a corporate event — we make every moment count.
