★★★★ 4.1 · 2822 reviews · Nyarutarama, Kigali · Monday: 9:00 AM – 1:00 AM

Very nice and original restaurant. Live music, great atmosphere and super good food. It was my birthday and my friends had organised a surprise cake. The band sang "Happy birthday" for me. Very good view to the city centre.

What customers say

★★★☆☆

A large and beautiful restaurant with an amazing view of the city. At night, the atmosphere is wonderful perfect for having drinks and spending time with friends. The vibe is great, and the city lights make the experience even more enjoyable. However, the service is extremely slow, and unfortunately the food does not live up to the atmosphere. While the setting and view are excellent, the overall experience could be much better with faster service and improved food quality.

Very disappointing experience at Pilli Pilli on Sunday, March 8, 2026. We paid for the entrance tickets and came expecting to enjoy the evening. However, no one from the staff came to offer us chairs or even help us find a place to sit. When we politely asked for chairs, the manager came but instead of helping or finding a solution, we were simply asked to leave. It’s really upsetting to be treated this way as paying customers just for asking for something basic like a chair to sit on. Hospitality should mean respecting and helping guests, not turning them away.

1) On a non-busy day, It still took long for the waiters to attend to us 2) I requested for blankets and they handed me a used blanket and confirmed to me it was used and not washed 3) they added an extra charge on the total of my bill and claimed it was a mistake, still did not get any apologies for all of this. Very bad customer service!

The is a decent bar with good food. Pretty good size and nice layout. There is an upstairs balcony with tables and booths. Sundays is turnt but the music completely shuts off at midnight… total silence
