Li's Chinese Restaurant Gigiri – The Taste You're Looking For

Tantalizing Indo-Chinese Cuisine That’ll Simply Leave You Wanting More

If you think about it, when it comes to dining establishments that we’ll visit time-and-time-again, two important factors always come into play. The first is ambience and character, and what we preferably all choose is a dining venue that we feel comfortable and relaxed in, and is versatile enough to be able to enjoy meals with friends, colleagues, business associates, with family or in larger groups too. The second are the irresistible and enjoyable flavours and tastes that emanate from each dish, after all what’s a great meal at your favourite restaurant without great tasting dishes. This may be a tall order for many eateries to fill, and although a seldom few achieve this perfect balance, only the very best stand the test-of-time to become a regular headliner and a must-visit for avid diners. As the proud slogan suggests Li’s Chinese Gigiri is indeed The Taste You’re Looking For, and as you delve deeper, you’ll find they appease to your tastes in more ways than one.

Soon after opening its doors, the first Li’s Restaurant in the coastal city of Mombasa, quickly earned a reputation for itself as the restaurant that serves-up superb tasting Indo Chinese Cuisine, offering guests a convenient location to dine at whether for business, leisure or a little bit of both. This indelible success soon led them to broaden their horizons, and with the same core values of using only the freshest produce, meats and seafood they opened their second in Nairobi’s upmarket suburbs and greenery of Gigiri. Over the past year Li’s Chinese Restaurant Gigiri has grown to become one of the capital’s favourite highlights, and it’s convenient location at the Petrocity complex makes it an ideal getaway from all the hustle and bustle, but also within easy reach to most major parts of the city.
