I got recommend to this place. It was my first time eating here. Everything we ordered tasted so good. I want to come back again.10/10!!
I love coming to this place for the tender goat, flavorful basmati rice and delicious African tea that has such a warm and herbal richness once you drink it. My only complaint is the dine in experience was too humid to be comfortable and eat but everything was fabulous. Definitely will recommend to people who love flavor and authentic variations of yummy goodness
A must try , I just tried 4 items , 3 were absolutely amazing. The Goat cutlet dish with rice , the chicken one with Chapatti and Sambussa .. the chapatti and rice were delicious. The sweet is not so the best .. Try dine in, check the portion before you order as it’s a little too much for one person.
