Clean, well decorated, nice music, friendly waiter. But, the food, OMG. So well seasoned and fresh!! I had the oxtail stew, jollof rice and collard greens. Hubby had the goat stew, plantains and basmati rice, I think. Will definitely return.
Visited for the first time during the pandemic for a small birthday dinner. We were very impressed with the cleanliness, decor, and overall vibe. The waitress was patient and knowledgeable and every dish and drink was spectacular. Can’t wait to go back!
I have attended this establishment twice. I am a vegetarian and I am telling you to get the spinach. GET THE SPINACH. I loved it so much that I ate it there and got a separate order to go. This place is great for groups but intimate enough if you are on a date. My first time attending the server brought out samples of sides for us to try before we decided on our main dishes and sides. I had the red bean coconut stew and my friend had the lentil coconut stew. The base is the same for both dishes, the lentil stew tastes better. Skip the Mokimo but not the flat bread or the cabbage or the collard greens. We had bhajia for an appetizer but it ends up being a lot of food. The portion sizes are big. Come with an appetite. They definitely have a repeat customer in me.
