This place is a hidden gem for sure! the samosas were cooked to perfection. The fufu was amazing. If you go ask for Mohammad he was very sweet with great customer service. Ask him about his soup! Will defiantly be returning ✨

The food was great and the staff provided a warm, welcoming experience. Cannot emphasize enough how courteous and friendly everyone was. Highly recommend the fufu with chicken stew. Amazing experience 😊

The food itself was delicious, reminded me of meals my mom used to make for me growing up. The fufu was incredible and the stewed chicken was good but could’ve had a bit more flavor. Mainly only gave three stars because it was 20 dollars but for just a single drumstick, an okay amount of swallow, and a very sad excuse for a side salad. Im sure 20 dollars could atleast get me more than a single drumstick and an actual side salad. Would order again to try what else they have but for more appropriate portions.

This restaurant truly is a hole in the wall and could easily be missed if judged too quickly for the way it looks on the outside. The food is delicious and feels like you’re eating in someone’s home unlike any chain restaurant. Ali is so attentive to his costumers and has such a welcoming bubbly personality. I will say to expect a wait time if there are a lot of people because most of the food is made on the spot. It would probably be better to order the food to go because there’s only three small tables inside. Overall it was a great experience and amazing taste!

Very small place with a BIG PERSONALITY! They worked hard to fill our large order and make sure we were happy, even though we ate them out of some items! Lol! Prices are very reasonable. All meats were wonderfully delicious, but the chicken stood out as my favorite. Will def come again if we're in the area. Thanks to Ali and all the crew who worked so hard and gave us a great experience! ?

I honestly loved the food here, it’s really good. Taste like good home cooked meal. Also Ali helped us through such a big rush he is a very patient man he took really good care of us. Same with the girls in the back that made the food very kind and gentle. Thank you so much for the good delicious food ❤️

I come here weekly and get the grilled tilapia with their rice. I promise it’s some of the best seasoned fish you’ll ever have. Unique with flavor, and their menu is really diverse. Everything is cooked to order, which guarantees freshness.
