★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A small halal Tasmanian take out joint... the food is grilled with pili pili seasoning which is tangy and spicy. If your looking for gravy and rice then it's not the place. I ordered AAA Beef ribs and beef Mishkaki (similar to beef cube kababs) both came with one side, a choice between Moga (starchy wedges looking and tasting but is not a potato) or French fries. Both tasted spicy, tangy and smokey. A good flavour worth trying. Prices for both were $12.50 + tax

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I finally got to try this place out and I'd say for this price you cannot get better ribs. I also had the kebabs which came with chutneys and those were really good as well.
2021 update: I tried the Gajjar Chicken, and it is the best BBQ style chicken I've had in the area. Amazing!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We ordered through uber eats since that's the only delivery service they use. The food was good as usual but that is not what this review is about. We've picked up orders from here before so this wasn't our first order. It seems that the quantity is being reduced every year. When you order through uber for pili pili, you're paying almost $4 more for ribs/fries, so instead of $15 we paid $19 x3 orders. The ribs came with fries. So We literally paid $75 for a total of about 1.5 lbs OF RIBS ONLY AND ABOUT 1.5 LBS OF FRIES.
that is absolutely ridiculous!! Shameful actually to treat your long standing customers who support you through the pandemic like this. Yes its been difficult for restaurant owners but this is and has always been a take out restaurant. So it wouldn't be any different with covid for this place. The price isn't fair for the quantity provided which seems to be getting smaller over time...it wasn't always like this but it seems the owner has been getting greedy even before covid started. Very dissapointed with the amount of food. Pic for proof if you think I'm guessing the quantity..
Can you imagine getting 1.5 lbs of wings for $75 .. would that ever seem fair????

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've lived next to Pili Pili since it opened and only just discovered it over the last year and I totally regret not trying the food here sooner! It's consistently delicious and something I truly look forward to. I always order the ribs, chicken and beef mishkaki, mogo, fries kebab and samosas - the meats dishes are moist, tender and absolutely delicious but I have to put a spotlight on the ribs! Oh-m-gee! The owner is super friendly and always gives an honest recommendation on quantity. As for portion sizes: they are very healthy and no skimping!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a nice, clean East African take-out restaurant. Staff are very organized and your food is ready when they say it will be ready (I hate having to wait more than 5 minutes). Ordered a couple of their grilled platters on different days and they tasted great both times. Top marks for consistency. Love their short ribs and chicken. Their spicy chutney that comes on the side is amazing. Everything tasted as I hoped it would. They have weekly and weekend specials which they advertise on their instagram page. Not sure why it took me so long to try this place, but I will be coming by more often.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Delicious East African food!
Had the Ribs, Cassava Fries and Mandazi (fried bread)
Ribs were delicious.
The powder for the fries was amazing. Had an amazing sourness to it. Loved the sauces that came along too.
Fried bread was a bit too dry and doughy.
