was disappointed by the valentine menu and the food itself it was awful fries were half cooked meat was unsalted with no flavor at all. Am a very good customer but that day I was so disappointed. I regret having spent my Valentine's Day there 160k with my partner all in vain. The good thing was dessert only and you guys didn't have an option of non-alcoholic drinks. It was strictly alcohol, which was a bad choice.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Kampala Gem that Never Disappoints! I recently dined at Piato Restaurant on Lumumba Avenue, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The ambiance is the perfect mix of cozy and professional, making it great for both work meetings and relaxing dinners. The food was absolute perfection—their grilled platters are packed with flavor, and the portions are incredibly generous. The staff were professional, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Having secure parking right in the middle of Nakasero is a massive plus. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be back!

I have always wanted to go check out Piato and when I finally got there, i was impressed. It is a beautiful green restaurant tucked away in the city. The trees and greenery added to its ambiance. I loved the outlook. The food was good too. The wet fry chicken I had was busting with flavor. The passion and mint cocktail was great too. My friend loved her cobb salad and berry drink. (I forgot the drink names 😅) Overall, i loved Piato and will definitely go back there. On Wednesdays they have a buffet as well s if that's your vibe, you will like it. The prices are average so there is something for everyone.

I hosted my daughters 1st Birthday and Piato and it was the perfect place fpr a big reunion with all my long lost relatives. The food was fantastic. The waiters were attentive. I ordered a french vanilla birthday cake for her that was sublime. And Judy (the event manager) was very helpful. Fantastic experience.
