The place is clean, spacious, plenty tables to sit. I just picked up some food to go. I did eat the pâté while waiting on my chicken and rice. It was a bit doughy but very flavorful and spicy. The juices are great. I should've taken some to go. The rice and beans with chicken were a hit as well. Glad to find a bit of home here. They also have a market of food and goodies to buy right next to the restaurant. This is definitely a little gem. Check them out.

I've never been to this place before but I'm sure I've driven by a million times. The food was…read morepretty good, I could have eaten at least 4 of the fish Somali Sambusas, it tastes like there's curry and other spices, and the outside is so crunchy and delicious. The African pate tastes very similar to an alcapurria. A fritter stuffed with meat and fried. One man served us and we had to wait for him to clean up before ordering. Thankfully I ordered Yelp since it was a bit of a big order, unfortunately I never received a confirmation order, but I just seen our food sitting at the restaurant and asked if it was mine. It was....so we didn't have a long wait time, however the food had gotten cold. I tried to be strategic and ordered for 1:30, since my drive was 30 mins but it was still cold. Thankfully there were pates and sambusas in the hot case still warm, so we got those hot and fresh. The ambiance was a little lack luster. Not much decorum or music, but there is a smaller store on the other side of the restaurant. I didn't get a chance to check it out but next time. If it's two things you remember to try it's the Sorrel (Hibiscus) Juice and the Somali fish Sambusas. I would drive back for those two things alone. The sorrel juice is so flavorful and spicy from the ginger. Those two menu items alone are a 15/15

Also got the oxtails to try (same sides, larger portions, $11). Also amazing. Chicken was moist and so damn flavorful - and this sauce on the side is to DIE for, almost like a sweet-and-sour BBQ sauce. The oxtail is like super succulent stewed beef chunks, falling-off-the-bone and rich and luscious. I am DEFINITELY hooked, yay!

They have a great bakery next door as well that I highly recommend.....But tonight was jerk chicken delivery. My hubs and I got the same dish on a buy one get one free promotion. Which is a no brainer. For reference, The pictures below is what I couldn't fit into my pie hole, but don't think I didn't try. Lol We ordered mediums. Huge delish portions, for a fair price, oh and did I mention it's the best jerk chicken I ever had. The pastry that comes with it, is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, had a nice crunch to it. The cabbage, rice and beans are tasty on their own, but really round off the flavors of the whole dish. The delivery person, coincidentally was from Jamaica and they were drooling, said it smelled divine and they were going back there for themselves. Nom nom

Ordered takeout from a spot located in a dive bar--which, honestly, seemed kind of cool at first…read more But when I got there, I noticed something odd: no smell of food cooking. Red flag number one. I headed to the back where the "restaurant" part was, and the vibe was off. Everyone in the kitchen was just sitting there, stone-faced, staring at me like I'd wandered into a secret society meeting. My order was the only one, yet they still made me show proof on my phone to confirm it was me. Weird. Despite the strange energy, I decided to give it a shot--mainly because it looked like someone's Jamaican grandma had made the food, and who's saying no to that? When I got home, though, the food was... fine. Not great, not terrible, just aggressively average. The chicken was okay but obviously had been sitting under heat lamps or in a warmer for hours without being stirred or loved. The rice? Mid. The cabbage? Also mid. It's the kind of place where you can tell the food's only as good as how much effort the cooks feel like putting in that day. Some days it's probably amazing; other days, it's got the potential to send you sprinting to the bathroom. So, would I go back? Maybe. But only if I'm feeling adventurous--and not wearing white pants.
