The smoky smell coming from this restaurant permeates this plaza! We finally decided to give it a try. This was our first time trying Senegalese food. The interior was what I expected—a bit messy, handwritten flyers on the wall, no sense of ambiance, but no major red flags that would deter us from eating here. The lady at the counter was very kind, pretty helpful and gave us the option to order a family-style pan. We started with the beef patties and they were very good. We ordered a pan of lamb, jollof rice and plantain. The lamb had a wonderful smoky smell and flavor. The lamb portion lasted us for about three different meals over three days. The lamb was overcooked and a bit tough, though. We ended up stewing it in beef broth which re-tenderized the meat. Overall, we would go back again.

I came here on Sunday for the first time. They were busy and had a line but the young lady in blue taking orders was so so nice and professional. She kept the line moving and she kept thanking everyone for being patient. The food was DELICIOUS!!! Real authentic Senegalese food!!!!!!! I will definitely be back when I’m in town again! Everything was seasoned to perfection!!!! They did not miss on the food!!!! 100/10 must try!

I'm only being generous enough to give it two stars because a few months the food used to be really good and they had the best Senegalese food in the city The portions are no longer generous. I rather pay a few extra bucks to get a full portion and the quality of the meat has become horrible. The dibi doesnt taste the same and it looks like something a dog chewed on and tastes like a slim jim, no way they're serving this. The restaurant used to be amazing they need to go back to their original operations
