Simply Amazing, my new favorite spot near state!
Kid-friendliness: Most SDSU near by places are.
Wheelchair accessibility: Door, some may need assistance but there is no stairs and the door is easy to open. Staff are also very accommodating and will open the door for anyone needing assistance.
Recommended dishes: Sweet Jerk Chicken
The server was so disrespectful. Needs more professional servers. Other than that great menu. ??

Fantastic service and excellent food! Prices were about what you’d expect, but the food and service went above and beyond! The young lady who helped my fiancée and I was very sweet and knowledgeable.

Friendly service. Amazing portion sizes! Food was very tasty, slight spicy, great prices! Definitely recommend as a lunch spot, or for take out. Seems popular with the students too.
Vegetarian options: Great veggie selection, delicious lentils!

Went there for the first time with my partner and all I can say is the food and customer service is top tier! I got a meal with saffron rice, curry lentils, and 1/2 sweet and spicy jerk chicken, and my partner got fufu with curry chicken and collard greens. The food was so good! My favorite was both the sweet and spicy jerk chicken and I would recommend the sweet jerk chicken for the non-Spicy lovers. The person working at the front was also super sweet and funny. Overall great experience. TRY IT NOW!!!!!!

Eating at this restaurant was an unexpected treat. ? My organization held our yearly Employee Mtg and I noticed the restaurant walking to the venue near the SDSU campus.My friend and I ordered the sweet and the spicy Jerk Chicken; Safron and Coconut rice, plaintains and the Collard greens. Everything was very delicious.The restaurant has simple decor and they don't serve alcohol. They do allow customers to bring in their own alcohol at no extra charge. The Staff is very welcoming and I am adding this restaurant to my Fav List. ?

Barbequed chicken has perfect texture, the spicy version has a slow burn that builds, the sweet version has a smokey bbq sauce, both light and dark meat. Collard greens dish is half cabbage, good palate cleanser between other bites. The corn and bean dish is a flavorful curry with a variety of vegetables. Space is clean with big windows. Love this, hope to make it back. The large plate was big enough to share with my gf.

Super-flavored dishes! The curry, safari and jerk chicken are all tremendous. 3 kinds of rice - coconut, saffron and pilaf. Nice veggies including eggplant, collard greens and plantain. It’s so nice to have good food like this in the midst of a fastfood desert! And the staff is pleasant and cheerful too!
Loved it! Friendly staff. Cristina was awesome providing great recommendations. Food was delicious.

The food here is great, I ate here all the time before the pandemic hit. However they always seem to be closed. I swung by twice this week and even though their hours were posted on their door, they were still closed during those hours.

Really delicious food at this place. Seems to be healthy as well.
Super delicious food here!! The workers are super sweet as well. I tried the curry chicken, sweet chicken, and spicy chicken and my favorite was the curry chicken! The yellow saffron rice is very tasty as well and I got mine with collared greens. Definitely get a mango juice if you are there too! They have very large portions so I had a lot of leftovers. If you are a student or go to SDSU, you can get a student discount as well ;)
Plantains were amazing. Had the sweet jerk plate and it was tasty. They need to expand the menu and add fish dishes for example. This seems like a great place for the local SDSU students.
