Great food is an understatement! Let’s start with the food shall we say… Everything was fresh from seafood to pork! The fish was soooo good and flavorful… We had rice with our meal and that was the BEST rice I’ve ever tasted. The plantains weren’t over cooked like most times I’ve had at other places. The coconut shrimp and smoked shrimp both had their own place in my heart because the both of them were respectfully delicious in their own category! Let’s just say you can’t go wrong here…
I don’t drink alcohol or soda(pop) drinker but the owner had me to try this African soda… This was THE best soda I’ve ever had, hands down! It was fruity but had just a little fizz to it. I had to buy some to bring it home so someone else could experience what I’ve tasted. I had to make sure I wasn’t just exaggerating. Their facial expressions and feedback solidified my opinion was spot on! They want to buy this by the case… Try the soda(pop), please… Thank me later! We talked about this food daily for a week and a half. So much that my principal is making a trip this weekend to see for himself. My daughter is going for her birthday celebration…
The service wasn’t a slouch either! The cook and the owner came out to meet us and made sure we were pleased. Oh I almost forgot the French dessert the owner made us…. OMG! The was a chocolate crepe with a mango sauce. I wasn’t too sweet but it satisfied the sweet tooth that I had. Back to the customer service… Everything was so elegant. We spent almost an hour taking pictures and selfies because the ambiance was soooo elegant!
This place is MUST try!!!
