We ordered for take out but then decided to eat there. The food was delicious. Flavorful. We ordered oxtail, with coconut... rice/plantains. And also jerk chicken, ugali and lentils, with a yummy purple colored drink, very refreshing. The waitress wasvery sweet, she let us sample other drinks to see if we would like it also. Read more
My favorite dish is the Nyoyo! It is such a tasty and filling stew of hominy corn, red beans, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes and... other seasonings. I also had a curry chicken plate with super tender chicken, cabbage & collard greens and coconut rice. It wasfantastic! The hibiscus & ginger drink is delicious and refreshing. This is a must-go for authentic African cuisine! Read more

Got some delicious food today, my mom?s favorite is the Kuku chicken curry with lentils and yellow rice. I got the fried whole... tilapia, coconut rice and collard greens. We come here often and it?s always hot and fresh. Read more
Amazing. Everything about it. I got a large chicken combo (i think that was the name) which came with 2 chicken dishes, 2... vegetable dishes, and rice. The spicy jerk chicken and sweet jerk chicken were super flavorful, and they grill the chicken rightin front of you. The lentils had great flavor, and the plantains were cooked to perfection. Even the rice was good, I loved thecoconut one. Everything was spiced very well, and the workers are nice. Everything came to 18 dollars, which I think is a greatprice for the extremely generous portion sizes. Go check this place out! You won't be disappointed Read more

I... ended up getting the goat curry she recommended it and I never had goat before so I thought I'd try it. I also had the coconutrice and collard greens. She gave me samples of the turmeric ginger drink and the ginger ginger drink both fabulous I drank theturmeric ginger drink there and brought home a ginger drink as well as leftovers as you will see from the pictures there isplenty to go around Read more
