Just left here with my family. The food is top tier 10/ 10. Delicious! We ordered, jollof, fried rice, fried plantains, large grilled, tilapia, Agushi and pounded yam. Everything was delicious. Beautiful space and ambiance too. Highly recommended.This is like the best kept secret in the DMV.

If you are looking for authentic fine dining, this is the place for you. The ambiance alone is sophisticated and elegant with a style that exudes elegance effortlessly. The food makes me feel like this restaurant has combined the beautiful diversity of African cuisine with a fusion of French and American cuisine 🇺🇸 creating a PEAK taste that will awaken all your taste buds. I will recommend to friends and come back

This is definitely a 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ restaurant. If you are looking for authentic delicious food then this is the spot. The ambience alone is exquisite and posh with a style that effortlessly displays luxury. The food at this gem 💎 gives me a vibe that this restaurant merged the beautiful diversity of African food with a fusion of French cuisine and American 🇺🇸 Soul Food, marinating together to create an EPIC taste exciting all your taste buds. I went there for the first time in April 2023 for the X-Maleya concert and was blown away by the atmosphere, customer service and food. The drinks were excellent, portion sizes were great and appropriate for their prices and I tried escargot 🐌 for the first time and it was finger-licking good. The salmon, spinach and fried plantains were EXCELLENT. I even met the owner, Jimmy, who was a pleasure to speak with. If you like class, luxury and top notch EVERYTHING, then this is a great spot to dine in by yourself, to bring friends/family to when they come to visit or simply come to make friends/connections.

My wife and I have been going to the buffet next to JB's place, but never really given it a thought until today 2/07/2023.
The good:
The food hands down. My wife had the Suya and she was pleasantly surprised about how good it tasted. Her fries were fresh and crunchy. I had the Ndole, a little spicy for my taste but delicious nevertheless. The bobolo and the plantains were perfect.
The service was great too. Turns out our waitress Jessica was also from Cameroon where I'm from. She was friendly and attentive.
The bad:
They say "sit yourself," but yet no one is there to attend to you once you sit down. We almost walked out before I decided to ask the bartender what the process was to get service. That's when we finally got Jessica.
The other thing was the bathroom. It looks clean including the floor except when you step on it. It was sticky. And that's all I'm going to say about that.
The ugly:
When we got the bill, there was a 12% service charge added to it. After inquiring, I found out that not only it's added right off the back, but it doesn't even go to THE SERVER. I wonder who provided the service 🤔. Then I was told the notice is at the front. Couldn't find it on my own even with the help of my wife. Jessica came to the rescue and showed us a piece of regular printing paper pinned on the wall behind the bar. With the knowledge that the server Jessica wasn't going to receive the service fee, I had to tip her separate. Total tip cost $23 on a $71 bill.
The other thing is that the fee shouldn't kick in until after 8. Now, we placed our order sometime after 7. Because the final bill was printed after 8, well....
Didn't know there's some live music with a DJ, so we missed it.
In conclusion, I haven't made up my mind about going back or not. Or even recommend the place to anyone. I guess I might have to get the bill printed right after I place the order especially if I might still be there after 8😁

Walked into what appeared to be a nice establishment. As soon as you walk in there’s a sign that says hostess will seat you but after waiting about 10 mins we decided we’d seat ourselves. Fast forward 15 minutes still not even an acknowledgment that we were even there!! No hostess nor waitress greeted us!! Needless to say I decided to leave so I don’t know what there food taste like cause I wasn’t even offered as much as “hi I’m Jane I’ll be your waiter can I get you started with a water or something?” And no they weren’t crowded there was a good maybe 30 people in the building not counting the staff!
