We had Egusi soup which has very tender lamb and smoky, complex flavor of a long-simmered stew. We also tried the plantain, which was hands down the best plaintain I've ever had. The owner was so friendly, the customer service was amazing! We can't wait to try the rest of the menu.
Let me tell you something!!! That lady in there cooking that food up by herself and she doing her thang!! It’s great pricing great service great quality of food! Her meats were so tender! Her plasas has REAL cassava leaf it was the right consistency of okra in the okra soup the meat pies were 🔥🔥🔥I’ve gone from lynnwood to Tacoma and she wins HANDS DOWN !! Best African restaurant in Washington state.
Plasas and egusi always hits here. The soup flavors are incredible, but they seriously skimp on meat cuts, both in variety and amount, considering how steep the price is. They could also improve the ventilation of the restaurant which got uncomfortably smoky during one visit.
