New review from Nov 2019:…read more This is my second visit here and far more disappointing. The reason is the waiter/owner was grumpy and when I asked for a takeaway box for the moyin moyin he actually scowled! Wow. The moyin moyin is quite flavourful but the jollof rice is a real disappointment. I've had far better in Ghana. Two years ago: I popped into here for lunch around 1:30pm today and whilst the owner could have been friendlier in greeting me (a smile doesn't hurt ya know), I appreciated him coming outside the restaurant to hand me my takeaway food where I had waited in the lovely sun for my order. The interior is quite small with only a couple of tables with lovely African sculptures all around. There is chalkboard of specials along with the regular menu. Sadly the sweet potato balls were sold out so I got the moin moin and the spinach stew. All together less than a tenner. There are four pieces of moin moin, which are just deliciously savoury. I recommend eating them with the nonspicy spinach stew with melon seed, which, whilst not delicious, was tasty and filling. It would be perfect on a cold winter night. If I was in the area, I would return just for the moin moin!

My husband generally doesn't care for mushrooms, but the grilled garlic mushrooms that we ordered were his favorite he's ever had, so much so that he wanted to keep eating more and more (and I can agree as a lover of mushrooms that they were some of the best prepared that I've had!). Additionally, I have never tried African rice before, but it was so flavorful and the addition of the crispy chicken skin was great. The server gave great recommendations for the Vinho Verde wine. I enjoyed both of the ones that we got and my husband, who enjoys port liked the port + tonic cocktail. It's beautiful inside and lively but not too crazy or loud. It's a lovely place to go to for an intimate date or with a group. We would definitely love to come here again with more people so that we can share more items on the menu!

Will be top of my list of local recommendations, take aways and home catering (have added their number to my mobile, was so fantastic). The depth of flavour of their lovingly-prepared jerk chicken, goat curry and fish curry (unlike you have ever tasted before - seriously moreish!) will seriously surprise newcomers. The sypmphony of flavours of the fish with chilli and scotch bonnet pepper sauce was SoooOOooo unique, asked to buy a batch of the sauce to take home!!! They really ought to bottle that sauce! 5 stars as a new local restaurant with the courage to try a new concept. Keep up the outstanding efforts!!! It was highly recommended to us through word of mouth. Absolutely worth a meal here!!!! It will be unlike anything you have experienced for quite some time. African passion on a plate.

You must try their jollof rice and jerk chicken! What really surprised us was the value for money.

Highly recommend .. A must before you leave Hastings!

We weren't sure whether to take a seat or wait to be seated. They had jungle animal background sounds (instead of music), which was quite funny. There's a lot of meat (halal) on the the menu, and generous portions too. I can only say that on view it looked good (see pics) and went down well with friends. I went for the prawn salad. It was delicious and served warm in a barbeque/mayo sauce. The desserts aren't worth writing about to be honest, as this really isn't their strong point - it didn't resemble anything close to homemade - but don't let this stop you from paying a visit.

The "jungle noises" (an audio file with quiet rainforest-type noises) can get a bit annoying after a while but I guess it's all part of the experience. The food was pretty good. I really liked the lamb ribs - the meat comes right off the bone. Wasn't a huge fan of my beef burger though. Our waiter was extremely nice and friendly to us the entire time we were there. When he came over with the bill we even got a complimentary bottle of non-alcoholic cocktail/drink. I'll definitely be back again in the future!

I have friends who are obsessed with this place - a must-go for post-drinking affairs, someone always brings it up on the walk home from Hoxton and Shoreditch. And I always end up getting pulled along, order a chicken wrap or something, take two bites, then hand it off to one of my more needy friends. For me, it's never a good idea. But the masses seem to love it and there's usually a line out the door. Except I do love those fries (chips) with ketchup and garlic mayonnaise (which is still kind of a gross concept as a ketchup-born American).... But it's delicious. I've probably finished off a helping by the time I get home and regret it just as quickly. It's a like/hate relationship.
