Do you need to hangout with your buddies with very good blend of all music genres, food and drinks, then Onyx is your destination in Nairobi. The speakers are dope with the DJ electrifying all through the nights. There is no better place to get entertained with the best of Naija and Kenya Songs with plenty mix of SA and other African songs. I enjoyed the Thursday nights. Not to forget to mention the staff are very friendly

Great place to lounge and have a nice quality drink after having been to a restaurant. And if not, there is a food menu here. The music is strong but not hindering the chats with your friends. If you want to dance you can obtain a headphone, really cool

It's a great place to hang out or throw parties. Onyx features a fully loaded bar, great kitchen putting out great food, the bathrooms are always super clean. It's location on the 7th floor allows guests to take in the view of harlequins sports field, Ngong road, Kilimani estate, and Ngong hills. Sunsets on the terraces is a beauty to behold.The crowd is mature, the music is absolutely great.!The sitting arrangement caters for couples, small groups, large groups and V.I.P.Two large levels of secure underground parking and exterior parking available and access to the lounge is through an elevator that allows the handicapped easy access in and out of the lounge.

Great Sushi, prices are not the most pocket friendly in Nairobi but worth it nonetheless. Their matcha ice cream is recommendable 😌

It's A good place but ,,There are some waiters who Don't comparate about there work ,,I'm sad that This has to happen in a big lounge like Onixy,,The same goes fir the security too , I went there And One of the security has to stop Me And my Friend Going inside because Of a waiters Mistake,,it happens like this i went to have a drink,With a budget,and a man Approached my friend ,he bought drinks for us And we had to pay For our drink what we ordered and The guy had to take rest of the Bill for what he bought for us,,Mind me The waiter Forgot to Write everything in his bill and he paid Half ,,Later we are leaving She stopped us for His bill tell us to pay the Bill what kind of Waited is she ,,And that why We were Stopped going there again ,,I have had many talking about how they were not allowed inside and it's wrong,I hope supervisors will look into this thank you

Incredible place to hang out with your buddies or girlfriend during the day due to the awesome view of the city's skyline it offers. However, at night this place transforms into a completely different place, the music, the crowd and the atmosphere just changes. One of the best things about it is the fact that you can listen to different music channels using the headphones they provide. Definitely worth a try.
