Absolutely love this place. I don't know what my plate is called but I know to order the chicken plate with bone. I don't recommend the ground beef or chicken, or the boneless chicken. But trust me, the steak or bone-in chicken plate with rice and grilled veggies is amazing. This place really is a hidden gem.

I love this place. Been coming here for years!!! My usual is the combo chicken and filet mignon kaboob but last night I tried the shamahiri beef and we did a half regular rice half cherry rice. Omg!! The cherry rice is amazing!!!! My friend had their special of the day which was a white fish with herb rice. So yummy. I don’t think you can have a bad meal here. Definitely recommend it.
