The staff great me upon entry. The place was clean and inviting. I ordered the Pineapple Coconut Curry bowl with grilled salmon. I added a couple additional veggies that were to my liking. The freshness and quality were top of the line. The portion size was really good. The price was a little high in my opinion. $12 for the bowl and $6 for the protein. That was $18 before adding a drink, however this was restaurant quality food at a fast food spot so I will say the price is worth it. The $5 Tropical Fruit Punch was amazing. I wish I lived closer to visit more often!

Flavorful, custom made bowl with tasty ingredients. My bowl consisted of the following: jollof rice and pineapple coconut rice, sofrito and spicy tomato sauce, bbq chickpeas, mango salsa, charred okra and broccoli and the citrus and jerk vinaigrettes on the side. Everything that was platted onto the bowl was deliciously tasteful. The spices were there! I actually preferred the jerk vinaigrette dressing over the citrus vinaigrette, but honestly, the bowl is flavorful enough alone that you could do without the dressing. The service was quick and efficient. The associates greeted me upon walking in and made sure that I was taken cared of. It was a great experience and I will definitely check in again to try more of their tasty foods.

Spiced and smoky! The food here was seasoned to perfection with a delicious smoky kick—exactly what I needed after a long day at work. I’ll admit I was a little skeptical when my fiancé pulled up because I’m not a fan of my food mixing too much, but the staff happily gave me my greens on the side, which I really appreciated. My only regret? Not trying even more dishes! I’ll definitely be back. What we tried: Red rice w/ Étouffée sauce — 10/10!!! Grilled chicken — solid 8/10 Grilled shrimp — solid 8/10 Plantains — 8/10 Collard greens — 8/10 (fiancé: 7/10) Curry cabbage — 7/10 Jollof rice w/ sofritto sauce — 8.5/10 (fiancé: 9/10) BBQ chickpeas — 6.5/10 (fiancé: 7/10) Salmon — 5.5/10 My only little recommendation would be a “fussy eaters box” with compartments for those of us who like our

This restaurant is amazing! The food was excellent and the costumer service was too. An employee walked me through the menu when I told him it was my first time there, he also let me try and few options to see what I liked. Everything tasted great! They have something for everyone including Vegetarians and Vegans. Check them out for yourself, you won't be disappointed!

I had Southern BBQ bowl. Rice was dry and croutons were so old and soggy but overall I enjoyed the food and their juice. Had sweet potato cake and banana cake for dessert. I’d pick sweet potato cake for me being savory side than sweet side. I wouldn’t mind giving it another try next time I’m in DC.
