Description:

One of the city's most elegant dining establishments, The Thai Chi Restaurant at The Sarova Stanley, boasts the finest in authentic Thai cuisine.

Situated opposite the Exchange Bar on the first floor, The Thai Chi is a small piece of Thailand in Nairobi. You will be immersed in Thai culture as you enjoy the delicacies of our executive Thai chef, a highly respected artisan who has worked in some of the finest Thai restaurants in Thailand.

Modern day Thai cuisine has an ancient history. As early as the thirteenth-century, the Thai people had established what might be considered the heart of Siamese cuisine as we know it today. Even today, Thailand is a nation obsessed with food. When Thai's meet, it is common to greet each other with the question "Where are you going?" quickly followed by "Have you eaten?" This passion for food and a willingness to experiment are the key reasons that Thai cuisine is widely regarded as the finest in the world.

What gives Thai food its distinctive character is a harmony or flavours, a taste combination that is a mix of sour, salty, hot and aromatic. The use of peanuts and coconut in the curries is characteristically Thai, as is the use of distinct ingredients such as lemongrass, kaffir lime, galangal, ginger, fresh lime and palm sugar. The herbs and fresh ingredients yield different aromas and flavors in each Thai dish.

At the Thai Chi Restaurant you will enjoy a range of authentic Thai dishes. We hope you will enjoy the experience and return to taste your way through our extensive menu.

    Nairobi's hidden gem...

    Thai Chi is one of the city’s best kept secrets – a hidden gem . Entirely set in wood, the restaurant’s dim lighting and soft music adds to its already warm and inviting atmosphere, which showcases elements of Thailand at its finest. It is no wonder that Thai Chi prides itself in being one of the most elegant dining establishments in the city.

    The authenticity of the restaurant is not only apparent from its cuisine, but more so from its intricate décor, making a visit to Thai Chi not just a dining experience but a cultural experience, too.

    From a great ambiance and excellent service, to amazing food - Thai Chi has it all. My personal favourites: the honey glazed duck, green papaya salad, Thai Red curry and the Special rice.

    Easily 5-stars!

    I couldn't Agree More

    As deranged and funny as the previous two reviewers were, to be quite honest, they are right.The Service and food at this place is phenomenal and I think I know the waiter the 1st reviewer was talking about. The guy is very very knowledgeable about both the cuisine and other topics as well.

    I have not experienced such engaging and personal waiting in a while.

    Kudos Thai Chi and even more Kudos to the knowledgeable waiter; management should be very careful not to lose him.

    Me I love It Long Time....

    To be quite honest, when my girlfriend said she was taking me to Thai Chi for my birthday, I thought it was either some fancy new Kamasutra position or ( and preferably ) a strip club...... Shock on Me!

    Although it was a bit of a come down when we got there ( because I had enough loose change to make it rain) I was in for a pleasant surprise.

    The setting and decor is very warm and cozy and especially inviting. The staff have very tasteful uniforms and even better attitude which I must say is very rear in Nairobi.

    Because I was super hungry, the food all came at once... Stuffed chicken wings, the dry red curry fish and the coconut rice was to die for.

    While not as entertaining as some girl named Cinnamon swinging down a pole, the waiter at our table was very very engaging and entertaining, letting as know bits of this about the Thai food and culture and he was indeed very knowledgeable.

    At the end of the day, I left feeling very full and happy and with none of the guilt that accompanies you spending 300 quid for a lap dance. If anything, I think our waiter earned all the loose 50's I had on me.

    A definite hit

    Good, but overpriced

    The food at Thai Chi is good. If you stick to one or two items on the menu. Play it safe with the chili basil stir-fry or a noodle dish. Their beef penang curry is also good.

    The service is excellent, if not a little too much at times. If you are out to impress a date then go for it. Nothing like a waiter who treats you like a King to make you look good. But for a business lunch or a quiet meal on your own it's really too much. You can't look up without fear that they may come running over.

    After the meal the shock is the bill, that's if you were relying on the prices shown in the menu.

    The prices are high as it is and they don't include tax. So be sure to factor that into your mind.

    Getting there - TIPS

    I would highly recommend the restaurant for the excellent food service and decor, it overlooks a historic tree the acacia and the location has a historic value not only to Nairobi but Kenya , parking isn't an issue and the reason to review this business is to educate my fellow enthusiastic diners that there is a parking Jockey available easily identified with the red jackets , if having lunch ensure the car is called for 10 minutes before you plan to leave as at times the traffic gets heavy and you could be delayed , in the evening not so bad. IMPORTANT : this place gets busy and making reservations is always a good idea, presentation , service , staff all get 4****
