Fish to Try

“Absolute heart food that can make you weep. Try the atieke - crispy whole tilapia or snapper on a bed of zingy veggies and fermented cassava that is sorta like couscous, except it absorbs all the lovely juices without falling apart. Jerk chicken and jollof rice is a classic too”

“I've eaten in person there and also ordered delivery. The food is so flavorful and delicious. I absolutely loved the maffe and attieke, but every dish is great. I will definitely be coming back.”

“We had their food once at the Mag Mile race in downtown Chicago. This was my first time visiting the location. The service was polite and the food was great. We tried the Jollof rice and jerk chicken, plantains, yassa fish and rice. We will definitely go back.”

“Delicious jolof rice! Best in Chicago”
