The food was delicious and full of flavor. They don't give you silverware since it is tradition to eat with your hands. Just grab a piece of the bread and dig in.

I…read morethink during our holiday we had enough of pasta and sometimes flavorless food so this was a welcome change. It was spicy but not horribly hot. The space was engulfed with African artifacts all around the restaurant. You just wanted to go around and touch or take pictures. It was picture perfect. It does take some time to get your meal but upon arrival, your food is made to order and I can accept that. Its plentiful to allow multiple plates to share with your group. The wine was impeccable. This is right next to a bar Julius Caesar (they don't have bar food). So go have a good meal relax before going next door to enjoy the happy hour and music.

We ordered all non-vegetarian dishes (cous-cous and others) and they were all fantastic. I highly recommend getting the mixed plate antipasti; it's perfect. The bread is mind-blowing as well, and is a staple of every meal in this restaurant. You *must* use it to scoop and eat your meal. If you're not, you're missing out. There's plenty of space and the decor is mind-blowing. Service is decent and prompt; and English friendly as well. Come here, you won't regret it.
