I had read a lot about this place, notably from reviews praising its fantastic service and affordable prices, and I was eager to see if it lived up to the expectations.
The menu at Maskan boasts a delightful variety of dishes. I decided to go with the Biryani Special, which was highly recommended by several reviews. For just Ksh 800, this dish did not disappoint. Each bite was flavor-packed, with tender meat and perfectly spiced rice that sent my taste buds dancing. It was easy to see why it had garnered such rave reviews; this meal was both affordable and delicious.
While enjoying my meal, I had the pleasure of being served by Joi, one of the waiters whose warmth and attentiveness made the experience even more enjoyable.

She made sure my water glass was never empty and offered insightful suggestions from the menu that made my decision-making process easier.
Alongside the Biryani, I could not resist trying the Chicken Skewers, especially since many diners had praised them for their succulent flavor. Priced at a mere Ksh 600, they were perfectly grilled and seasoned, boasting a smoky flavor that complemented the meal wonderfully. The presentation was also commendable; they arrived on a vibrant plate that was just as satisfying to look at as it was to eat.
