Comfort food. Tastes good. Goat is excellent. Helpful owner who immigrated 23 years ago from Ghana making Gaithersburg great and makes sure every customer is served timely. Great experience in cute town of Gaithersburg. Thank you for the puff puff.

I ordered takeout/delivery. Not a great value. All the main items are around 25.00 You get tons of rice and a few pieces of meat, and some lettuce on the side with ranch already on it. The food has tons of flavor and the plantain was delicious but don't consider this a great dining experience at all because of the price. What you see in the pictures is lots of sauce or gravy, it's not meat.
