I didnt try much of the food, but this is a pretty cool spot. Stage and sound could use some work along with an updated menu, but this place and the people there are really cool.
I had a good time playing a show there and really encourage people to check out the live music. I think there's an open jam/jazz night there...

The food is good. However, the atmosphere can be iffy due to the crowd. As a woman, I do not feel safe here. There are more men than women who go here, and I do feel like the male patrons are running the women off. They act as if they do not understand boundaries or NO! Everyone knows the owner. That's not a power move to get a woman to like you! Until the owner stops letting creeps in his establishment, there will continue to be a lack of women patrons. Also. Try having dinner specials. There is way too much space for the lounge to be empty on weekends even week nights! Something isn't working. That man dressed like a broke down Martin Luther King drunk in a trench coat with a 5th of vodka stumbling down the street every day keeps coming back scaring off the women with his nasty creepy behavior. Don't get me started on the other men who get mad when women turn down their advances that they think it's okay to drive around the parking lot stalking them! I won't be coming back here because I don't feel safe here.

This enormous 2 room Restaurant, Club/Lounge is Often Empty or Just Locals.. But theme nights tend to be more expensive with entry fees up to $20 per person. However are very popular and Fun!! Talent or open mic nights are amazing as talent will always come high energy! Friendly Staff hit or Miss on if they even have your favorite alcohol beverages. But great E African food and bites.Very non upscale..The area is very outdated including inside the restaurant/ Club with old outdated furniture that can be uncomfortable due to age and decor is outdated. But never seen an dirty bathroom!!Update would be great for Event Room rentals and more promotions.But non the less this is an great chill spot with awesome people and food!

Parking: Can be Super hard to find parking due to parking shortages with other restaurants and bars in the mini strip

Recommended dishes: Nyama Choma with Ugali, Samosas, Chicken Wing
