    Hoyo's kitchen at Dublin Bridge Park
    Corri P.

    Tried the mango chicken at Hoyo's. The flavor was a little bland and I did not taste mango as much as chili powder. The portion was generous, service fast and friendly. I would still like to try another dish from Hoyo's but would not recommend this one. The Bridge Park location is fun, casual and family friendly.

    Vegetarian Bowl with all the veggies and vegan rice
    Geoff K.

    I had been to Hoyo's a number of times before going veg, both at the Bridge Park and North Market locations. They offer build your own bowls with African inspired options. I had read that their vegetarian bowl was something special, and it is. The bowl is a medley of African stews, veggies, and spiced rice. The portion size is plentiful, this is truly a meal. It can come with one of three sauces ranging from flavorful to downright spicy. The Bridge Park outpost of Hoyo's used to be focused on juice and hand pies (think African empanada), but they now offer their full menu. As veg options go, the bowl at Hoyo's is an excellent option.

    Safari Spicy Rice Bowl with Safari Chicken
    Kate W.

    Stopped in on a Wednesday night about 30 minutes before they closed. There was no line and the man working was super nice and answered all my questions since this was my first time visiting. I ended up getting a bowl with spicy rice, safari chicken, lots of toppings, and the garlic yogurt sauce. While I was waiting they even offered me a free chai! The bowl only took about 5 minutes and I took it to go. The flavors were amazing and everything tasted so fresh even though they were close to closing. The bowl with tip was $17 which is definitely on the pricier end, but it was so good and I was able to eat the leftovers for lunch the next day so it was worth it in my opinion. Highly recommend and I will be back!

    Sooo dry mango chicken.
    Lisa B.

    Do not get the mango chicken! Even though it is the most expensive thing on the menu it is bone dry inside and hard. Like it was made a week ago and sat outside the fridge. When I said "this is not edible. It's too dry" I was told that is how mango chicken is. What a waste of an $18 lunch! Had to eat around the chicken. So gross. When they saw me taking pictures of it they brought me over a different chicken which was really good. The vegetables were fresh. They redeemed themselves but don't get the mango chicken

    Mango Chicken Rice Bowl

    Always a struggle to decide what to pick in the food hall/market cause everything looks good. Picked to try out Hoyo's Kitchen when I'm in North Market Bridge Park. It is actually my first time trying some Somali food. I really like the straightforward menu with the start up to build a bowl, wrap or salad. Then protein and veggies to follow. I got the Mango Chicken rice bowl and love it. The chicken is tender and the sauce is slightly sweet and have some subtle fruitiness. You can get it with the spicy level of your choice. I like it mild and just a kick to it. Also, have to highlight their Watermelon and Guava drink. Super refreshing and prefect for the hot days.

    Spicy rice and safari chicken
    Janice J.

    Yummy! I enjoyed a bowl with spicy rice, safari chicken and various vegetables. It's a zesty type of spicy. Not spicy initially but it grows. Not sure but tasted like a combination of turmeric, cloves and coriander etc. If you are daring there's even spicier choices. Will definitely come back.

    Veggie bowl
    Melitta S.

    First time trying Somali food and it was delicious! Got the Spicy rice, lentils, chickpeas, cabbage, and spinach. I only wanted the hot veggie bowl. There are options for cold veggies. I also added the green chili sauce. Beef sambusa rounded out the meal. The rice definitely had some kick to it..... usually when listed spicy, it's not noticeable to me. Anyway service and food were great. Definitely coming back!

    Mango Chicken ( out of ) with 1/2 spicy, 1/2 regular rice, lentils + cabbage as hot toppings, cucumber + green sauce

    I already love their chai and bottled green sauce, but hadn't actually eaten here until today. The mango chicken was so good, especially with some sabayad to mop up the lentils. I got half regular/half spicy rice but will definitely be back to try the injera + goat. Super friendly staff and portions are hefty!

    Injera base with vegetarian sides
    Sophie K.

    Super good! You can create your own bowl with your choice of injera bread, salad, or rice as a base. The service was fast and the food was excellent. Great vegetarian options as well

    Excellent, across the board. Highly recommend. Of course, the sambusas and juice were the stars of the show.

    This was one of the first businesses I frequented when I got to Columbus in 2019. I am happy that…read morethey survived pandemic times and seem to be thriving. They were as busy as ever on a recent visit. All the blenders were firing away making smoothies. My favorite is the Protein Packer smoothie and it is just as delicious as when I first tried it. They also have acai bowls, wrap sandwiches and fresh juices. I have never tried any of those because I get the same thing every time :)

    It pains me to give this rating as I'm usually a big Pulp fan. However, based on this trip alone, I…read morewould have given them a one star, but based on history, I bumped it up to two. When I first came in, they immediately asked "what do you want" and walked away as soon as I finished talking. I didn't get an option for a receipt or anything. They were very snippy, but I was willing to excuse it because maybe they were busy with mobile orders or something. I used to work in food service so I understand! Then our drinks came out, and one was the incorrect size. I brushed this off until I got home, and we realized it was the wrong drink. The only reason I took it is because the employee handed it directly to me as she said the correct name of the drink. It also tasted very watered down, and the other smoothie we got tasted similar. We got two wraps: the turkey avocado wrap and the chicken caesar. Both were massively overloaded with their respective sauces (mayo and caesar dressing) and weren't too enjoyable. Hopefully will be better next time, if we are brave enough to return.

    I came here for a milk tea. The shop was staffed nicely. Looked clean. Was quick prepping my…read moreorder. I ordered a coffee flavored milk tea. I would not recommend that combination. It just didn't taste great when I got to my car and I started drinking it.--The tea flavor tasted really weird. Very, very strong taste to the tea not very much coffee flavor and I have to say the two didn't mix well whatsoever I don't know why I continued to drink it, but I did and I wish I hadn't. It's midnight and my stomach is still making noises and protesting against that tea. I don't know if I got bad milk or a variety of tea that my stomach just doesn't like... But this was not the tea for me. The girls in front of me had gotten mango smoothie type of things and that looked delicious and another one had a strawberry looking thing and that also looks delicious. I think I really chose poorly... Like as poorly as one could choose--I could probably receive a metal saying world's, worst choice. It was that bad. If I had to come back (which I probably will not), I would get something with mango and maybe not a milk tea

    This was the original KFT that I fell in love with! Love all the many flavors and topping/boba…read moreoptions. We have a new KFT in Lewis center now so I likely won't be up here as often, but I'll never forget the way this location got me through the great Covid shutdown of 2020. Talk about essential! My go-to is the Kung Fu milk tea with boba and a milk cap. Yum!
