Mizizi by Street Chef Shaw

My friend and I stopped in for takeout after she raved about the food. I now will be doing the same! The staff was so fun and friendly, and the food is absolutely incredible! Some of the best I have had in GR lately, and so fun and different from what all the other restaurants are doing. The pork dumplings are an absolute must!

Awesome spot for great African fusion food. We ordered the skewers and shared dumplings. They were amazing! Cannot recommend highly enough. I took off one star for atmosphere only because space is tight. It’s likely folks will want to consider taking out and eating at home. There are two cozy little tables. Enjoy!

Food was wonderful and delicious! The chicken tacos and the fried shells were amazing. The Queso was very good as well. I also got the Blueberry Ginger Lemonade which was different but good! I will most definitely come back! This seemed to be the best part of Grand Rapids!

Wow. I’ve walked past this spot many times without knowing what was inside. Last night I finally walked in and ordered some birria and chicken tacos with a side of rice and beans. Yall. I don’t even like birria that much. Chefs hit this out of the park. Amazing food here, friendly staff- patient because I had no idea what I wanted- and clearly a solid working team that enjoys what they’re doing in there. I will never walk past your building again. Great work, food, heart!

Highly recommend this little hidden gem. The staff was immediately welcoming and friendly, and helped me find what was gluten free on the menu. As a first timer, I was recommended the tacos— they’re AMAZING!!! So flavorful and well spiced. Even after the drive home they were hot and crispy. I’m excited to try more of the menu!
