Absolutely incredible experience! If you're looking for authentic Kenyan food, there is no other place in the city you should look. Their menu is constantly changing, so you know the food is fresh. And the owners are absolutely wonderful and welcoming. Great atmosphere, super reasonable prices. The Big 5 will be making its way into our regular rotation for sure!

Owner (Kenyan), extremely kind. Went with my Kenyan (Native) buddy, he gave the place 10/10. I enjoyed the curry chicken w/ rice & chapati the most. Food will vary in selection! Small place but quality food and good culture.

Parking: Parking is a hit-or-miss! Be open to drive around the block a few times or walk 1-5 min to get there.

I have never had African food before I had actually you seen it on tiktok but I honestly can say Im happy I tried it. The pork stew and cabbage was so delicious!! Flavors that I have never tasted before! I absolutely loved it. The two workers were also amazing. They told me how much to heat it up for because I was taking it with me and even gave me a samosa which was absolutely delicious!! I'll definitely be going back!
