I’ve ordered food from Karibu Restaurant multiple times, and there’s always an issue—except for the samosas. The Congolese goat meat is consistently as hard as a rock, making it nearly inedible. To make matters worse, Uber Eats refuses to issue refunds, leaving customers stuck with overpriced, low-quality meals. Karibu Restaurant needs to stop serving burnt, subpar food to paying customers. People deserve fresh, well-prepared meals, not trash. This place is a joke. I received a plate full of bones and old, dark chicken meat that was tough like rubber. The chikwangue was dark, smelled awful, and was inedible. This was supposed to be poulet mayo, but it’s not even close—it was disgusting, old meat with an odd yellow paste on the chicken. If you don’t know how to cook this dish properly, ple

It’s takeout only but WOW! It’s fantastic. I had the whole tilapia (medium), jollof rice, plantain and ginger juice to drink. The tilapia came fried and not breaded. So it was gluten free and it was fall-apart tender and juicy. The flavors are out of this world. This is a welcome addition to the local food scene. It’s in the back left corner of the African grocery store. This is the only reason atmosphere is rated lower. If this place had a few tables….look out!🤩
