I love this place! If your living in kenya or even just on vacation there do yourself a favor and go. When you enter the courtyard they play a light drum to sound your arrival as you walk past fossilized giant clams filled with flowers floating on water. The service can be a bit slow at times but it always... More

I love Misono. Whenever I'm in Mombasa I make sure to go to this place. In comparison to Japanese restaurants all over the world, the quality and the price here is world class. You can have a fantastic 7 course Teppanyaki lobster menu for 20 quid per head. Let's forget about the price for a second, the quality itself is... More

We had a fantastic dinner with friends around a Tepanyaki table in Misono. Great atmosphere, good service and great food. The tepanyaki menu's and live cooking experience really adds to a great evening. The food is plenty-full and delicious. Even if some of the waiters were wearing some washed out pink shirts the whole evening was overall perfect. I highly... More

A good tepanyaki done by professional staff, the place was busy and we got a good welcome, the restaurant is facing the road leading to a main commercial mole, not panoramic view but we will visit it again.

I frequent this restaurant, it has proven to be quite consistent. The food is excellent and the staff are very responsive. If you are looking for a good sushi or Tepanyaki meal, this place is the perfect choice!

A good Japanese Restaurant in Mombasa. The service and ambience are excellent. The waiter knew true Japanese expressions! Prices are quite high and the quality of sushi is not top notch in my opinion. Nevertheless, I would suggest to try Misono cuisine. Tempura and grilled dishes are excellent.
