We Ate WILD MEAT at Carnivore Restaurant Nairobi

- Welcome to Kenya's world famous restaurant the Carnivore Restaurant which opened in 1980 and is located by the Wilson Airport in Nairobi.
Back before 2004 when the Kenyan Government passed the law against the sale of game meat, Carnivore was known to sell everything from giraffe to zebra, wildebeest, gazelle and more. But now even though zebra steaks are no longer allowed, Carnivore Nairobi serves everything from chicken to beef, lamb, fish, turkey, pork and even crocodile, ostrich and ox BALLS!
All the meat is cooked for several hours on a massive charcoal BBQ located at the entrance of the restaurant. This is the Maasai way to cook the meat and it adds so much flavor to it.
Many people told us that the Carnivore restaurant in Nairobi is nothing like it was in the early 2000's but to our opinion, the ambiance was very nice, the service excellent and the meat delicious. And for an all you can eat meat restaurant, the price was more than descent.

I MADE A MISTAKE!!! Carnivore opened in September 1980 not in 1999 like the guy in the video (aka me😂) said.
Yes indeed. I was in Kenya in 1986 and it was open then and always packed
Just came on to say the same. I lived in Kenya in the 80s and went there then. Main memories were the cool see saw things in the playground over looking the airport.
Ahhhh I forgot about this one...I was supposed to go here.
Graduated high school in 1997 in Kenya. Carnivore was a place not just for eating meats but also clubbing like the "super soul Sunday's" they used to do. I came to correct the timeline of when it was open as well. But Dave Mani always tries to correct his information. Thanks for correction. Back the 80's and 90's we did get to eat the exotic meats.
My people :) its not a problem!
aah! Carnivore! its so nostalgic we used to rock and party at carnivore when I was in campus it was the go to place many people have met their wives there.
Hahaha I heard it was THE spot back in the days! I wish I would have experienced that!!!
@@DaveMani yes indeed you would have loved it.
That's a really nice tip about letting the restaurant people choose the food... They will know what people find irresistible 😋😊
Exactly! :)
Dave I'm sure it was open before 1999, I'm not talking about the Golf Range, which it was originally. I left Kenya before 1999 and I'd spent many years visiting and partying at Carmivor
You're right! I don't know why some website are saying 1999. My bad, I just pinned a comment to correct myself.
Wow you guys are growing healthy... For sure kenya is good and packed with good organic food 😋😋😋. Nice content guys
Thx
@@DaveMani like you're contents now I'm your subscriber 👍
Our will visit this place next month 🤗🤗 excited thanks for sharing ❤
Hope you enjoy it!
We tried Carnivore back in 2021 and it was really good, actually in Nairobi right now, but had other places on my must try list this time around. Wewent to the The al-yusra 2 nights ago and it was fantastic, anyway, we love your videos =)
Enjoy Nairobi man! 🇰🇪😎
This was fun to watch. You guys did such a good job that I felt as if I were there with you!
New subscriber!🥰
Thanks for subbing! ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve never clicked so fast before…. Carnivore has always been great you guys took me back down memory lane and the dawa that goes with the meat is very refreshing 💕
We actually were there again un Sunday night. We took all our family from Canada there. 🇨🇦
Just saw the video, its amazing. Actually all your videos are very informative and great tbh! And I really like the way you think - "Focus on what you're here for - meat , meat" ... Exactly like me. hahaha lol
Haha thanks a lot Elwin! :p
You never disappoint great video as always
I appreciate that!
Carnivore is way older to have been opened in 1999. As a young student in the mid 90s Carnivore was the place to be on a good Friday.
You're right! I don't know why some website are saying 1999. It actually opened in September 1980. My bad, I just pinned a comment to correct myself.
I knew teenagers who used to sneak out there in the 80's.
Brought back great memories from a couple years ago! Great meat and ambience, but did hope for a few more exotics.
Same here but sadly outside of crocodile and ostrich, the rest is illegal to eat in Kenya...
That guy behind Tracey is always on the phone, I want that battery.
I’ve always loved carnivore, great vibe and nightlife too.
Yeah! Its a good vibe indeed. :)
My favorite restaurant/meat place. I started going to the carnivore restaurant when my son was 9 months and he is now 11 years old. We still eat there but not as often as my kids have outgrown the play area
Hahaha definitely a great spot to bring the family! :)
Good old CANIIIII!!! So many memories from early to late 90s hurraying until morning.
Hahaha I love that! :P
Umenirudisha mbali: Canii, Voras, Voo. The names vary according to one's age 😅😅😅
@@bellaolum9768 Voras it was in the 80's wow! Forgot this.
Now try to visit tigoni Village its really really beautiful place
I'll look it up :D
I have been waiting for this video the famous carnivore restaurant
Here it is :p
carnivore is so cool!! glad you made a video on it!
It really is!
@@DaveMani when i was there my friend kept telling the waiter that i wanted more balls!! i think i had 8 or 9 of them - the guy wouldn’t stop bringing them! lol
Don’t worry Trace being adventurous when it comes to food isn’t always worth the hype 😂 I’m like you and my hubby’s like Dave 😄
Hahaha cheers to that :p
Dave. . . . . "REPEAT IT!!"
"Focus on the meat!!"
Very, very wise words.
Then, next time, focus on the cuts you liked.
👏 👏 👏 👊
Haha cheers to that! :p
I and my husband went to the opening of this restaurant many years ago, and it was so good then amazing it’s still going, would love to return ❤
No way! That's so cool. They have a second location now in South Africa too. 👍🏼
Wow
You really guys really hit the dart this time. Carnivore looked interesting hope the food was good too.❤
The food was pretty good for sure!!
Dawa! And nyama choma!👌🏻
Delicious!!!
Atlanta is watching..I love it
Thanks!!!!
When I come back to Kenya I'll definitely go to carnivore, I'll take my mom and bro
Yeah! 😎👍🏼
Now you and Tracy are legends in Kenyan cuisine it was hard to give you the crown! Because of this missing visit to carnivore! Kudos!
Haha fair enough!!
Daaaamn I'm glad you enjoyed our carnivore.welcome to Nairobi once again❤️ Nairobi yetu hakuna matata.wageni mwakaribishwa kenya❤❤❤
Thank you so much! :) 🇰🇪
Ox what? Haha, enjoyed watching this, focus!
You heard that right!! 🤣🤣🤣
This is sooo coool!
Never been so its just fire to watch.
You should try fogo gaucho. I think you have been though?
We actually made a video at Fogo! That place for the meat was even better if you ask us.
Please try Chinese food in 🇰🇪 it's just amazing.. You two are my best vloggers in Africa that says a lot
Do you have a specific restaurant in mind? :)
Great vlog 🤩😇
Thanks a lot!
Hehehe...
Thank you, sir and ma'am.
Always welcome
Sacre bleu!! You had to call the holy crocodile an alligator? Unforgivable!
Anyways, Carnivore is a national treasure. They do have concerts playing from time to time. Great place.
Always nice to watch your videos.
Well to be honest that mistake was all on Tracey! 🤣🤣🤣
This is used as a time filling location, by UK tour companies, when the last flight from the Mara gets you to Nairobi many hours before your departure flight. We were very unimpressed, both with the food and the service, and would have been much happier to have gone to a much nicer restaurant, or even a hotel to fill the time. Off to Botswana in 10days, I can't wait 😊
Well if you are looking for a nicer restaurant m, next time try Talisman not too far from Carnivore. Otherwise, enjoy Botswana. 👍🏼
Love the food at Carnivore and sitting outside. It was fun to watch my travel group's reactions to vervets who came to play in the trees near us. If anyone leaves Carnivore hungry, they've done something wrong ;-)
Haha I agree! They literally have infinite meat! 🤣
You should do an episode on the tamarind dhow night cruise in Mombasa from the same company as carnivore
We will for sure! We already did one about the restaurant too.
You should also try The Lord Erroll restaurant.
Yeah, we are trying but they are not answering us. We simply want to confirm with them that we can film. Since it's a "fancier" spot, we don't want to show up there with our camera and be turned around...
Jumping into memory lane where my father savoured the delectable game cuisines from this iconic restaurant. Let's revive those rich flavors and gastronomic adventures. Stay tuned to a culinary journey unparalleled.
Yeah! That place is a true institution here in Kenya. 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
I was very sure that at some point, you guys will have to pass by the Canivore😄😄😄
We just HAD to! :p
Ohh no you missed wild beasts, it’s best meat I ever have. I worked there back in 1999 to 2001 and now in Texas . If I’m not wrong carnivore was still since 80’s my parents used to go there, it’s nice place to have fun.
We're gonna have to go to their branch in South Africa! Hahaha
Bin there in 2000, yummie😋😋
So good!
I used to devour game meat there in the 90's. I stopped going when game meat was banned 😢. I loved the place though. It was also a famous for it's disco😂.
Haha I heard it was quite something back in the days. Even tho they don't have as much meat as before, what they have is pretty good. 👍🏼
I also thought the green thing with the dawa was a straw. I spent a solid minute trying to figure out if it had a blockage in it. I felt my IQ take a dip when I was told it's a muddler (for crushing the lemons)
❤❤
I know right!! Thank you 🤣🤣🤣
Dear Dave. We love you in Africa. Please tell Tracy that in Africa, South Africa especially. Chicken livers, gizzard, feet, necks and intestine have always been the so called "economic" portions that most families living below the bread line have preferred. I personally love those portions because I grew up enjoying them. Give the livers a try. My favorite Italian restaurant in Sandton specializes in chicken livers and Italian bread. Hint hints
What's the name of that restaurant? :)
Casa Bella at Monte Casino. They are amazing
You can find the chicken livers as a starter under their "Date Night" menu. It seem to be a popular starter.
My magical Kenya!
Yeah! :)
Dave mani my favourite friend 😊😊😊😊😊😊
You're the best! :p
I miss The carnivore restaurant. The game meat is on another level plus the famous drink’dawa’.
It was a hood time for sure :)
Why would a vegetarian really visit that place? Kudos to the quality content you guys are bringing to us
I was wondering the same thing! Hahaha
Thumbnail outfit is on fire😂😂😂
Thanks a lot 🤣
Dave and Mani we don't have alligator in Kenya 😅😅what you guys had was farm raised crocodile
I know that! Tracey said it loll.
They should have a dedicated farm raising buffalo, zebra, impala, or any other wild game.
Yeah! That would be great.
Then they will no longer be wild game.
I think you missed talking about the hot plate as well 😅
We did! Loll
I miss carnival discotheque
The good old days from what I heard :p
Dave you should have asked for an assorted patter. You would have had every kind of meat including Croc and warthog meat.
I did get croc but they did jot have warthog when I went...
I hear that Carnivore has a lot of meat, now I see. 3:31 the straw. 😂😂The flag story is original. The other day my daughter and I were wondering if ostrich is edible. Oh.... nice to know. All the meat you ate there, is all good for me, even the chicken liver.
I'd choose the brownie over the ginger dessert. 🍗🍖🥩🥓
I always love trying new stuff so I was also very happy! :p
The Carnivore in S Africa still serves all the wild meats they use to serve there
Yeah! There is no laws in SA! 🤣
I ate there before! lol it was cool. I had some sort of testicle tasted horrible!
Hahaha fair enough.
I had a meal but l regrated 😢. After our visitors who were supposed to give us our project donation, they told us hat they have used he money to pay bills at carnival that's 2011
Oh...
Long overdue Carnivore! 😍
Very true! Hahaha
Hey are the drinks inclusive for 4800 shillings
No... That is juste for all the food you saw.
What was the price tag please, you didn't tell us
Yes we did! I don't remember now but Tracey said the price while we were having a drink at the bar and I even put the prices in USD and KSH on the screen.
@@DaveMani
OK thanks for the reply, I will have to rewatch it again, coz your channel l hardly here the price or name of hotel or restaurant since l am always busy helping you guys to EAT, AND DRINK and have fun
@@DaveMani
😂😂😂😂😂 thanks after rewatching again l saw the price tag, 😂😂ksh 4,800 and veterinarian ksh 4,000 😊😊
I thought I heard you say the Carnivore Restaurant opened in 1999? - I was first there in 1995. I Googled and it says they opened in 1980.
September 1980... I made a mistake! I don't why some websites are saying 1999.
Sir you are rockstar ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks man :)
Thanks man :)
@@DaveMani sir you are a rockstar and also a youth icon 🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎🍀♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Yah we are there for the meat only,no side dishes.😅😅

Cheers ❤️
Nyama,nyama,nyama! 🗣NYAMA!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cheers! :)
Faaaaaaaaaaantaaaaastic!
It was :p
IT OPENED IN 1980
You're right! I don't know why some website are saying 1999. My bad, I just pinned a comment to correct myself.
When I visited Cheyenne in Wyoming, there was an item on the hotel menu that, thankfully, I knew what it was, so did not order it 🤮
Rocky Mountain Oysters
What was it? Loll
@DaveMani Sliced, breaded, and deep fried bull's testicles.
Dave needs vegan friends yo hang out with 😅
Loll I like everyone :p
respect animals, the crocodile is in danger of extinction
I don't think they are no... These are also farmed not hunted.
OX BALLS😂😂😂😂😂
Yup... We ate that! :p
@DaveMani I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THAT DID IT TASTE GOOD?
It's funny am a Kenyan and have never visited this place,another reason to forcefully and aggressively fight poverty
To be honest, it's kind of a tourist spot these days.
@@DaveMani wow that's great, welcome so much. If you visit Narok I will make sure I see you for a photo.I won't beg for money😂
Videos thumbnail 😂
You like it? Haha I think its pretty good. Let`s see if the video does good when going live tonight...
@@DaveMani yes looks interesting :)
Went to Carnivore for dinner 2019 and it was delicious! I tried everything except the oxballs! lol
It is not wild meat, it is 'game'😮
They don't really have game meat anymore.
It would have been nice if you actually showed the food
Did you watch the video? I literally filmed all the food from the food to the meat cooking, being served and being eaten. We showed all the sides and even dessert! What else did you want to see?
Carnivore is the most overated restaurant in Nairobi.
Terrible food, terrible ambiance.
Pretty sad that you guys are objective on the reviews you are making.
I really think that we are objective. We are not paid for those reviews therefor, we have nothing to gain by saying that something is good if it is not.
We simply think that it is a gun place to go with friends, and that most, not all, the meat was good. That is all.
