Amazing, delicious food. Hostesses/servers are always polite, friendly, and reasonably accommodating. Kudos and rewards to them and the chefs! Finding quality yet not overpriced foods in this area can be a challenge but Yendidi delivers. If the wait times are a little longer, it's because the food is not cheap, unhealthy junk. People need to realize that and have more patience. This is the best restaurant for West African cuisine that I have tried so far!

Great dining experience met a few singles there as well. Great music service food. Kiss made us some fantastic drinks, we also tired some Goat n Chicken suya and the Jollof rice was so delicious. Customer service was great very attentive and kind. Would definitely be back to try more.
