Recently, I had the absolute pleasure of dining at La Casa Di Nico, located in the vibrant city of Mombasa, Kenya. If you are looking to indulge in authentic Italian cuisine, this is the place to be! I visited on a warm Friday evening, and the ambiance was simply enchanting.
The delightful aromas wafting through the air immediately transported me to Italy. As I perused the menu, I was torn between so many tempting options, but I finally settled on the Spaghetti Carbonara, priced at just KSh 1700. The dish was an artful blend of creamy sauce, pancetta, and a touch of white wine, making every bite a heavenly experience. I was pleased to know that they source their ingredients fresh, as this truly reflected in the taste.
I must give a big shoutout to our waiter, Giovanni, who was not only attentive but also provided great recommendations from the menu. His passion for Italian food was evident, and he made the evening even more enjoyable.
For my seafood cravings, I couldn’t resist trying the Linguine Allo Scoglio as well, beautifully plated and bursting with fresh flavors, at KSh 2200. The combination of fresh seafood and the richness of white wine in the sauce was nothing short of delightful. Both dishes were very satisfying and offered fantastic value for money, a nod to the rich culinary tradition they uphold.
The passion that La Casa Di Nico puts into its food is palpable. The cozy setting, combined with the exquisite flavors of Italy, made every moment enjoyable. As I enjoyed my desserts, the taste of each dish lingered, and I couldn't help but appreciate how well they capitalized on combining authenticity with local flair.
If you’re a food lover or simply looking to try a new culinary experience in Mombasa, make sure you visit La Casa Di Nico. The blend of ambiance, flavor, and service, particularly from waitstaff like Giovanni, creates an unforgettable dining experience. You’ll leave not just satisfied but also eager to return to explore more of their delightful menu!
Trust me, whether you are a local or just visiting, you won't be disappointed at La Casa Di Nico. There is something truly magical about finding a restaurant that captures the essence of Italy right in the heart of Mombasa.
