Sooo yummy! We got the BBQ Faves Plate w/ ribs and the peanut soup and rice. Very tasty and great comfort food, the peanut soup... hits the spot on a cold day! The owner provided great customer service as well! We'll be back soon!! Read more
It?s very rare that I?m so pleased with a place?s food that I want to write a review, but this place is exceptional. Got the... signature stew - so hearty and heartwarming. Ribs were outstanding. And the fresh ginger beer is the best ginger beer I?ve everhad. Definitely try that if they have it! Read more
This was one of two food carts at this car wash location. The car wash still seems operational. I think there may be other... food carts that operate sometimes but when we went on Friday night in October there were just the two carts. The other servedtacos, etc. There are two picnic tables for this cart. The people running this cart are very nice. I had the stew with chickenand I chose the coconut rice. It was awesome, the epitome of comfort food. I'm always nervous that rich foods might give meheartburn but this did not. Be prepared for a short wait as they make the food. Read more
I had a delicious lunch here today! I ordered the beef stew with Jollof red rice, a side of mac & cheese, and the homemade... ginger beverage. Everything is delicious and perfectly seasoned! I'm going back tomorrow to try the rest of the menu! Read more
Calabash just catered our wedding of about 100 people and we couldn?t have been happier. Many guests, including our professional... photographer who has been to more weddings than she could count, said it was the best food at a wedding they had ever had.Julius is a truly skilled chef, as well as kind, prompt, honest, and helpful. His food is wonderful - truly special. We hadribs, pulled pork sliders, chicken, mac, greens, peanut soup, stew, and several kinds of rices, and guests could not stop eatingit. What a treasure this place is. Read more
I really loved the cassava leaf. I spent a year in Sierra Leone so their food really brought back a lot of fond memories. The... portions were generous so I had enough to eat for a few days. I appreciate how they offer delicious American BBQ style food soit's an easy place to take friends less familiar with West African food. Very friendly staff. I can't wait to try more of theirfood.
