Found this place at San Diego December nights 2023 and fell in love. Went back today to check out the actual restaurant and the food is even better. Absolutely love this place and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier / helpful.
the fish and ugali was great I can't wait to try the Nyama choma and Samosas
Good spot! Highly recommended!
