As someone from toronto Canada, I can name 3 spots out there with way better quality amala with bigger portions. I personally wouldn't order this again."

"Generous portions, but the suya misses the mark on authenticity. While you get a lot of food for the price, the suya unfortunately doesn't taste like real suya. It completely lacks that signature smoky, charred grill flavor, and it doesn't even look like it ever touched a grill. On the bright side, the plantains were a 10/10—perfectly cooked.

This is my second time ordering from this establishment and the first time I ordered the rice noodles with double lamb and fried plantain, with the cucumber salad and suya rice.

"Big fan of west African food and was looking for something new to try. I judge Senegalese restaurants by their theibu jenn - which wasn't on the menu - but the Dibi Chicken and Macaroni and Cheese didnt disappoint!
