Best quality and it’s always fresh. Although the only thing that saddens me is that it does not come spicy because I love love loveeeeee their pepper sauce! 20/10 every time!

I've been working with Marlene & Fredrick for over a few months now to secure them as the caterer for a UMN event which just happened last night! Marlene is both kind & patient. To say that the food was a success would be a huge understatement! The food was AMAZING! The food was delivered very hot & on time! Thank you again, Marlene! I highly recommend them!

Highlights: Delicious Food, Near Major Highways, Located In Strip Mall, Family Style ServingsI have family from Liberia, so I've had the pleasure of tasting delicious homemade West African cuisine. Mid 2021- I was in this strip mall getting my hair done when a hairstylist from Liberia walked in with this delicious smelling food.I asked her where she got it from and explained to her that I have been unable to find a Liberian restaurant that taste like "home" here in the Twin Cities, and she vouched that this place was pretty good.It's been a wrap ever since.I order the same thing every single time, which is a bit costly. I think my entire order usually comes between $50 - $65, depending on if I get a small or large.I order the Whole Fish with Jolof Rice, & Collard Greens with No Meat (which you can order by size, S M L XL)The Whole Fish is nicely coated with this delicious seasoning and cooked to perfection!The Jolof Rice is delicious.The Collard Greens are so good, I've never tasted greens like it! Very original taste and I love that it's served with white rice.There is a young man who is always working, and he is very pleasant and easy to talk to.They don't have a lot of beverage options, but they do have a small grocer isle for you to purchase miscellaneous things like rice, beans, bouyon's, beverages, etc.There is a large parking lot, so parking should never be an issue. This is located in a strip mall, so you are surrounded by many other merchants. If you are quickly picking up, there is space for you to pull up briefly close to their entrance.I plan to keep supporting this place. I think the food is amazing, the staff is kind, and I always have a pleasant experience.

Parking: This place is located in a strip mall, so there is plenty of parking lot space.

Kid-friendliness: You can share these meals with your children, and there are kid friendly beverages available.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs at this location, and the tables inside are wheelchair accessible.

The best sweet potato greens I’ve ever had from a restaurant! I love these greens and would recommend anyone looking for good authentic greens. Don’t forget the spice! The greens are full of tender smoked meats and served w/ rice & pepper sauce. You can request no meat @ an extra fee! So worth it..So good!!!

The Casava leaf meal was definitely made with love. This meal will have you lick your plate clean because to leave any food behind would be a crime. 100% satisfied. ?

Customer service is very nice and professional. The food is always delicious and prepared with care. The owner is a very kind lady runs her restaurant extremely well. This is the ONLY African restaurant in Minnesota that I frequently visit. The food portions are correct and not over drenched in oil. This is my all time favorite restaurant in Minnesota. May this place stay open for many years to come.Just give it a try and then compare to other African Restaurants and I’m sure you’ll agree with me wink?
