Formerly a holiday house
on two floors overlooking the white, sandy Bamburi beach 12 km. north of
Mombasa island. Il Covo opened its door in may 2003 and since then it
has been the top dining and entertainment venue in Mombasa.
The lower veranda overlooks the beach, a romantic gazebo just out onto
the sea and is fondly called fort Jesus. Its' an ideal spot for romantic
dinners.
The upper deck has two balconies with a sea view. One of them is a sushi
bar whereby our chef will create in front of you the freshest and most
delicious sushi, sashimi and teppanyaki.
Our Italian cuisine is renowned for it's originality, our menu consists
of a wide range of original pasta dishes, fresh starters, salads
including a variety of fish Carpaccio, tuna and red snapper.
Fresh lobsters, prawns, calamari and octopus all depending on the day's
catch, are also part of Il Covo's luscious and extensive menu along with
fabulously tender meats.
Il Covo also accommodates a large wood burning oven which gives the best
authentic Italian pizzas.
