An absolutely amazing place with great food and an outstanding service, Bistro is an ideal place to have some good food in Kigali. I went there two days in a row, and on both days, the experience was awesome. Their sizzler dishes are superb, and the tum yom soup was full of chicken. They have a special offer on Tuesdays where you roll a dice at the end of your meal, and you will get ten times the percent of the number drawn on the bill.

Nice sit down restaurant with incredible service and a wide range of food choices and wine/ drink options. The tenderloin steak with chocolate sauce was very delicious. I’ve been here twice for dinner would 100% recommend. Prices are great as well, the atmosphere is nice with great music playing at a reasonable volume. Great for date night or group outings. Has two pages of vegetarian options.

An amazing spot in Kigali with a nice atmosphere, open air big space, amazing service and tasty food. On top of that on Tuesday between 5 and 9 you gotta throw the dice and get discount accordingly. We hit 4 so we received 40% discount

The fish piccata I had was really good. So good that I have no images to documenting it, lol.Not sure what rock I was living under, but I hadn’t heard of this place before coming here for a nice, solo lunch. It was very breezy and the service was great. I’ll definitely return.
