We heard live jazz when walking past this cafe, happy hour drinks are still available even passed 8pm on Tuesday. Stopped in and fully enjoyed the live jazz and drinks. A great way to cap the night!
The bartender is absolutely amazing personality and customer service. The soup (especially the spicy pepper soup) is absolutely delicious. My only con is that you do not get a lot of food at this restaurant. You may order an entree but it is more like a tapa. The oxtails are mostly bones with sauce. Not sure about the other dishes but unless it's the soup don't come here if you are remotely hungry.
I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and live music! The service was quite slow and the food is ok, but in my personal opinion, the entrees were just ok…the cocktail I ordered (sexy ginger) took a long time to arrive and was so sweet, I couldn’t finish it.
The wings, plantains, suya, and fufu were very good!
