Amazing food, fresh fish and good jollof rice. the portions were very generous we had 1 fish and side of jollof with plantains for 3 people, total costs $50 very affordable. will come back for sure. the place was relatively empty so no reservation required

This place is a hidden gem. We arrived on a very rainy day, yet once we got inside there was sunshine everywhere. My friend and I were so happy. The food was just delicious and the service was top notch. I am vegetarian 90% of the time, however, I had fish that day and it was superb. We had the Poisson Grill, the Sweet Plantains, and the Ris Gras with no meat. Let me tell you, I ate slower on purpose!! So flavorful and so smooth… The sauce that came with the Ris Gras was amazing too!! This experience could not have been the same without Amy!! She was the best waitress ever. She greeted us like we were family and her smiles, amazing knowledge of the menu, and energy was just perfect. I used to train servers and Amy made it look so easy. Please support this off the beaten path restaurant! Tell them Chase sent you!!!

I wanted to grab a bite with a friend before I headed to the Richard Roger’s amphitheater. It’s an 11 minute walk from there. In spite of the construction outside, we couldn’t hear a thing inside. At 5:30 pm, the vibe is upbeat and quiet. The large screen with urban music pops against the black interior. The service was quite attentive initially. I enjoyed the food a lot in spite of my friend finding it a bit greasy (it is ). Around 7:30pm, this place filled up and got quite lively. We had to work through the crowd to pay our bill. I ran into the owner on the street. He greeted me and ensured I had a good dinner and time there.
