In our experience last night, the food was great, I got the dried rice, and fish. The customer service was great. The guy behind the counter was patient, and helpful in explaining the different dishes, and food options, I have food allergies so he was very helpful when selecting my dish. My friend and I had dinner, and then stayed for the live dj, the vibe was amazing, loved the atmosphere, the music was great, the drinks were good. The bathrooms were clean. It was a very nice experience. We will be going back for sure!
Thank you for providing great service, and a great time! ??

Jambo is one of the best West African food spots in the Northwest Metro. I’ve had their cassava leaf & joloff rice. Both are delicious. They also have some night life offerings that are more than worth your time as well as attention.

This might be the worst cassava leaf soup I've ever had! Unseasoned. The rice taste like minute rice! I will not be returning.

A purely African based bar.. DJ was good at least, but watching fights break out in a bar is never a good experience... Well if you want to dance to afrobeats from all countries in Africa I can say try them out...Weekend parties had a nice mix of ladies and guys and VIP section, no Vap free area, and might get overcrowded at times..

I come here to eat every week for potato greens but man I think I got a bad batch this time it smelt of a little I tasted it just to see in it tasted old like it was sitting out or something got in the mix of the potato greens it didn’t taste good at all I was so upset woke up with a bad stomach ache food poisoning on the toilet all day ? I’m so hurt but I will never come back because that was bad in $20 alot to spend on bad taste food just to throw it away. This never happen before in I been coming here for a while so I don’t know what happen maybe something got in it on accident or maybe it was old but that’s not ok

Very loud, obnoxious, and rude patrons. It's 2:30am and they're still yelling and honking their horns, peeling out in their clapped out Chrysler 300M. The fact that their lot is much too small to accommodate the shocking amount of patrons, they start parking in the middle of the street after they've taken over the Quality Inns parking lot. Those inconveniences aside, I've witnessed them blatantly parking in a no parking zone for ADA parking spaces, witnessed those without parking permits parking in ADA parking spaces as well as forcing vehicles in the parking lot or street to come to a complete stop as they Snapchat, FaceTime or otherwise continue to be in their own world while they stand there like they've just owned the world and everybody else in it.

Parking: If you are disabled, covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act, prepare to find your parking spaces that you are lawfully entitled to, to be taken by those without a placard, or find yourself blocked in by a vehicle parked in the no parking zone, therefore not allowing you to get in or out of your own vehicle. 0/10 would recommend.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible. Utter blatant disregard for those covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Rude, obnoxious with a blatant disregard for those with disabilities.

I just moved to this area and wanted to try this place. I put in an online order for samosas and goat curry and had to wait over 30 minutes to get my to-go food, even though I ordered it in advance online and arrived at the time it was supposed to be ready. They didn't have any samosas, so they said that they would give me potatoes instead. But when I got home and opened up the potatoes it was just a plain, unseasoned boiled potato cut into chunks. Really a disappointing "substitute" for an order of samosas. The goat curry was extremely greasy, like there was grease covering the entire surface of the food. It tasted like old meat and I threw it out.
