The Talisman Restaurant

The Talisman is a restaurant rooted in Nairobi’s rich culture and global flavor. Located in the heart of Karen, we serve up a blend of European, Pan Asian, and African dishes all made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

We began as a cozy art gallery and café in a historic house. Over the years, we’ve grown into a destination known for great food, warm hospitality, and a unique garden setting.

Every dish on our menu reflects care, creativity, and a commitment to quality.

Our space is casual yet refined. You’ll find vibrant art on the walls, lush greenery outside, and a relaxed vibe throughout. Whether you’re here for lunch, dinner, drinks, or a special occasion, we make every visit feel personal.

We also support sustainability. We work with local farmers, use herbs from our organic garden, and reduce waste wherever we can.

At The Talisman, we don’t just serve meals we create experiences. Join us and enjoy good food, good company, and the best of Nairobi dining.
