Description
A restaurant that opened in 1929 and serves tororo, grated yam, with barley rice. The main dining rooms are on the first to third floors, and the roof holds a space that works as a buffet by day and a bar called Lounge Vista by night.
Lounge Vista opens at 18:00 and serves small dishes and drinks until 22:30, with last entry at 20:30. It is reservation-only, and bookings close the day before.
Good to know
- The rooftop bar is reservation-only and bookings close the day before, so it cannot be visited on the spur of the moment.
- Booking a table in the main dining rooms carries a minimum food order per person, which is higher at weekends and in private rooms.
- Online booking closes at 15:00 the day before; same-day requests go by phone.
- Hours differ depending on whether a Sunday or public holiday falls in the middle or at the end of a run of holidays.
