The music and ambiance was lovely, and the servers were amazingly attentive. The food was mouthwatering. We shared the Red Snapper and had the sauce on the side. The curry fish nuggets had a lovely coconut flavor. Our drinks were celebratory indeed. If you're ever in NJ for a show at NJPAC, go across the street and check Swahili Village out!

Cuisine: 9 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 4 Value: 9 Overall: 9 I am not an expert in West African cuisine, but all I can say about the food here is, "Holy shit! It's good!" The setup inside this dimly lit restaurant had a bunch of steam tables offering various beef and chicken dishes, a handful of rice options, and a bunch of salads/fruits. Having no idea what we were looking at, we asked the friendly owner for some advice. After some contemplation, two of us made a plate with all beef over some jollof rice, and another with basically all chicken items over a different type of flavorful rice. We knew it was too much, but our goal was to figure out what we would come back for. Honestly, I did not enjoy most of the chicken because it's sitting in steam trays getting overcooked. Not saying they were terrible, but it all fails in comparison to all the great beef offerings. OMG! You really can't go wrong with any of the beef dishes. My cuisine rating is really based on the various beef items, the yummy veggies, and both amazing rice. The current price is $10.99 per pound regardless what you fill your box with, except a couple of items. We filled our two boxes with about 4lbs of food. Obviously too much, but we got to try many things. No doubt I will be back asap for round two.

Delicious place with $11 meal specials for lunch…read more A nice little sit in with a view and very attentive staff. The wrap I got was lemon and herm. Delicious. It came with fries and I don't know what they seasoned it with but they were very delicious. The two restaurants I've been to in this area. Use some kind of red seasoning on their fries that I've never seen before. I'm wondering if it's because there seems to be a large population of Indian people here? Maybe seasoning for fries in that region of the world is different than how we do American fries? Some restaurant in philly should really pick us up.

He was the only person there(out front). The jollof rice was not good at all!! Fresh from Senegal and Ghana along with dining at King and Queens in Upper Darby & Aunty K's in Yeadon I don't know what this is?!!! The lamb chops were reminiscent to lamb I had in Senegal. I asked the server to give me a box and do not leave, provide me with my check so I can pay. he continue with his personal phone conversation and walking away for another five minutes. I don't feel like this review would I recommend this place? Absolutely NOT!!!

Ordered delivery, so can't say anything about the vibes…read more The chicken was absolutely dry and way too charcoal-y -- the flavor was there, but it wasn't enough to save it. Grilled corn was also a miss -- barely ripe, small kernels, totally flavorless. The saving graces: coleslaw that was perfectly creamy with an unexpected kick, solid mac n cheese, and flavorful yellow rice. The sides did their job, but the mains did not.

I caught an NBA playoff game on their huge big screen TVs and enjoyed a meal and a cocktail. The staff was really attentive and engaging.

Try the Jollof with your choice of protein (I picked chicken) and the mango margarita!

The atmosphere was pleasant with soft music and big screens showing the World Cup after while there was loud cheering. My issue was in attempt to pay the manager refused my prepaid virtual Mastercard stating they need the actual card or cash. so I went to use my credit card tap from phone and was refused that also. It's unbelievable that an establishment in Manhattan Times Square is not equipped and or doesn't honor travelers versatile paying methods.
