Wonderful freshly made food and generous portions. Admitted I only get the fried tilapia there as it's just too good (pairs well with pilau and sukuma). Owner and staff are lovely people. There never more than 2-3 people working there including serving staff so when it's busy the wait is on the longer side. Go with good company and know that when the food arrives you won't leave disappointed. Grateful to have this business in Columbia City. Oh, and they sell jars...
