I went there on Saturday 19th Oct. The Jollof Rice and Plantains were good, but The meat that was Given for my Money was Horrible. The Goat And Beef was Hard and The Goat had that Goat Scent. Plus your Portion of Meat was not Desirable. I had to go
home and make Stew Chicken to Eat with the Rice and Plantains.
small portions but the food is super good.
Jollof rice is my favorite. The stew fried fish was amazing. The spinach is now my fav. So yummy. I want to go back and try other dishes. Yum. Great customer service and very friendly. A must try.
