Sauce Bottles
Bottle Sauce Medium
This is our gateway sauce: a good dollop of PERi-PERi with spices. For a while, it will be enough. But soon you'll want them all. Just go with it.
Bottle PERinaise Original
Our great tasting and famous PERi-PERi blended mayo that you've learnt to love in our restaurants.
Bottle Sauce XX Hot
We salute you. With eyes streaming and mouth burning, you'll fall for fire that doesn't flinch from flavor. Balanced with PERi-PERi, lemon, garlic, onion and spices, you will be coming back for more.
Bottle Sauce Hot
If you're after a bite of heat, you've come to the right sauce. Bursting with PERi-PERi, a kick of garlic and lemon, this is how hardcore PERi-PERi fans get caught in the heat of the moment.
Bottle Sauce Lemon Herb
Our PERi-PERi sauce is made with African Bird's eye Chilli and a blend of ingredients-onion, sun-ripened lemons, garlic and spices.
Bottle PERinaise Hot
Hot PERinaise is the perfect blend of the creaminess of mayonnaise and the spiciness of PERi-PERi.
Bottle Sauce Garlic
Garlic is many things, but it isn't subtle. Just like this sauce, a blend of PERi-PERi with its sweet waves of garlicky goodness. If you're on a first date, pour this on both of your plates. You'll thank us later.

This food is so good! My family and I had the chicken wings, livers, Portuguese rice, fries, and half an avocado. This place is such a good fusion of various cultures. I enjoyed the African background music. It represents various parts of the continent. The decor in the restaurant even paid homage to Africa. The service could have been better. I think they were short staffed but they were very kind and accommodating. We will be returning and telling others to patron this restaurant.

Catered food for a luncheon at a doctor’s office. Food turned out great and due to issues with ordering online and me having to pick up the food myself, I received a steep managerial approved discount on the food.

First time there. Janice was awesome. She made some really good food choice recommendations. Put me on to a sauce I've never tried. It was an all around great experience. Janice was friendly, helpful, and insightful. I'll definitely be stopping by there next time im in the area
