Joseph O. • October 23, 2018Excellent wine, the creamy carrot soup is rich and paired w fantastic grilled cheese triangles

L E. • October 1, 2015Delicious steam table of West African cooking (+ fresh fruit and salad)! Self-serve but everything is good and if you ask they'll explain.

lobatt l. • March 14, 2016Great african place! Definitely try the beef curry w/ rice and jerk chicken. Food here are sell by weight, 5.99USD/pounds, VERY affordable.

John C. • February 11, 2024Get the smash burger! The patty shares a bun with American cheese, tomato, spicy tomato jam, plantain fries that go tumbling out the sides, and a fried egg

Terry C. • September 13, 2020Everything is delicious, get a bowl and some sides you can’t go wrong!

Alex A. • March 14, 2020Mango chicken and the mango juice were amazing!!! Will go back for the sambusas

Phoenix 💥💥💥 • October 31, 2014The lamb and brown rice is indeed very good!

Shameika H. • January 19, 2014Loved the tilapia! Seasoned to perfection and very moist!

Zile D. • September 22, 2021Such a hidden gem. Absolutely delicious Senagalese food, generous portions. The unique flavors will blow your mind!

Jeremy F. • July 18, 2012Mafe-a peanut butter sauce rich with lamb, carrots, and potatoes, all redolent with the flavor of dried red snapper.

Anika D. • November 17, 2017The fish fataya was delicious. Especially with spicy African sauce! I also enjoyed the lobster and shrimp salad.

The Corcoran Group • November 4, 2011Delicious Senegalese food, although the service is not great. Try one of their daily lunch specials (weekends too)…a whole lot of food for $10. Try the Thiebu Djen, it’s awesome.

Beatriz S. • October 16, 2018Lamb shank and fish is so good and prices are very reasonable. A bit crowded and they will probably get your wine order wrong (happens every time.. ) but it’s really about the food. Recommend 10/10

Elie B. • July 6, 2014Fantastic Eritrean option in the city. Their server Shamm is the bomb! Take her recommendation and enjoy the meal :-)

Miguel B. • July 27, 2013Tasty Senegalese food. Go with the Fish & Rice and definitely try the ginger and sorrel drink.
