Kitisa Restaurant receives mixed feedback, with many customers praising the taste of the grilled food, particularly the sekela chicken and chips. However, service is a recurring point of frustration, with several reviewers noting long wait times of an hour or more and the need to actively seek out staff for assistance. The physical environment is described as very basic and in need of renovation, with some guests expressing concerns about cleanliness and maintenance. Pricing is generally considered reasonable, though there are mentions of price increases during peak tourist seasons. While some visitors had negative experiences with food preparation, others found the meals delicious and satisfying. Overall, it is often recommended as a 'pick and go' spot rather than a destination for a polished dining experience.
