★★★★☆ 4.0 En Sabah Nur · Nov 2025

Upon entering, the restaurant is beautiful. From the wallpaper to the ceilings to the art. Staff was welcoming and gave great recommendations. We ordered the goat soup which was delicious. The only downside was that the goat meat in the soup was fatty. We ordered the fufu. It was odd but good. It has the consistency of mochi and the taste of mashed potatoes. We also ordered the rice and goat. In this dish the goat was good and not as fatty. The rice was good. We ordered a side of rice that was a bit dry for my taste. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant and will return. A+

Although in a mostly closed strip mall, the restaurant is decorated nicely. I ate there before going to nearby Loonies Comedy Corner. I had grilled tilapia with plantains. Both were excellent! The tilapia had a nice, spicy coating. There were also mild and spicy side sauces to add more flavor, which was not needed. The host/ owner was very attentive and explained the different foods, as did the wait staff. It is owned by a active duty soldier, formerly from Africa.

Order though door dash. Spent $20 for one piece of fish ($50 Total with delivery) without the side that it clearly states it comes with. Problem could have easily been fixed. But whomever on the phone decided to argue with me trying to persuade me that I got a good deal because it’s normally 30. false Advertising Food for a certain price and then claim we’re getting a deal. Just seems like a rip off. Wanted to badly to like this spot. If you order the fish and fries with sauce expect to get only the fish no sauce no fries.fufu was sticky not firm like it should be with sour fermented taste. Very disappointing in what I was givein today.

★★★★★ 5.0 Anaie Beltran · Nov 2025

It was mine and my hubby’s first time trying an African restaurant here in the springs , and they did not disappoint at all! The service was so nice, and the food was hot and fresh. The food was filling but not in a way that will make you feel slumped afterwards, it was just the right amount for a full belly. The flavors were so nice and would definitely recommend for everyone to try and try again.

This meal, two drumsticks and fufu was $20!!!! This place is extremely overpriced! The service was terrible. My guest and I waited an hour for our food while two others came in were served and attended to right away. We only got a spoon and a roll of bathroom paper towels to clean up with. The soda I got was expired. Two meals (2 drumsticks and a fish plate) and 2 drinks came out to $66!!!! Never again! I will say the broth was good
