Very good, and very interesting. I grew up eating Indian food, and the influence of Indian food on African cuisine is apparent on the menu: that said, the food here is distinctly African. My first time coming, they were actually about to close but served me pleasantly anyway. When I realized that I had come in so close to closing time, I was especially impressed that the food was so good, even when a customer comes bumbling in when everyone wants to go home. Try the beef samosas. They were excellent. My least favorite part of the meal was the masala chai tea. Since it was late at night, I think I ended up with the last dregs of it, but in all fairness, that's my fault. Tldr; stop saying "one of these days we should go there" and just go. You'll be glad you did.

I don't know why this place isn't more popular! (Probably because it's pretty new) We were a little skeptical at first, because it was a Friday night and only one couple was dining in when we got there, but we walked in and the atmosphere was warm and friendly, with nice African music playing, and such. The waiter (William) was super nice and fun to chat with, he helped us decide what to get. We waited less than 20 minutes for our food, and boy was it delicious! I got the goat, with rice, and a chapati, and my husband got the Ng'ombe (beef), rice, and fried plantains. We also got samosas (I think they only have beef samosas, no veggie, but they did have a little vegetarian section in menu) The meats were SO tender! Don't be afraid to order the goat! Everything else was really good and complimented the entrees excellently! We were both very impressed and pleased with our dishes. Doreen (owner and chef) was very sweet and would come out and deliver the dishes sometimes. We will definitely be going back and recommending it to friends, ! Came back a year later, and they are still rocking it! Chapattis were delicious, the food was excellent, the waiters and owner were so sweet, and the atmosphere was as pleasant and clean as ever! We love coming here.

This place was okay my first visit. They've since raised their prices and kept things the same. Buffet on Saturdays is now $13.99 plus $2.50 for a drink. This wouldn't be entirely bad, but they have maybe 6-7 different items to choose from--always the same. It also feels like they're a little over anxious to charge you. Close to $20 for a meal here is excessive. I could think of a dozen other places I'd much rather eat for that price range. They tried charging my friend and his 4 year old daughter close to $40 to eat here. It's a little outrageous for the selection and quality of food. This recent visit, we were the only people there at 1pm on a Saturday.
