I celebrated 40 plus years of life today. When I say this establishment exceeded our expectations is an under statement. The drinks were exceptional...appetizer was tasty....the main courses were exceptional. The staff were very attentive. Shout out to Angelica and Precious. Last but not least Chef Cliff did his thang in the Kitchen...The hour plus ridr from Brooklyn was worth it all. See yall soon
Large venue with a Club/Lounge vibe. Live DJ on premise, nice "club" like interior, with some African accents. Casual vibe, although the decor gives off a nice semi-upscale vibe. Nice after work spot, albeit a bit loud. There is a parking lot in the rear, but not for the restaurant. Same with the lot across the street, it's for residents only. There is only metered street parking, & a metered parking lot around the corner & across the street. Service was very good. Full bar, including their own signature drinks. We had Oxtail Tacos w/Joloff Rice, Honey Glazed Lamb Chop w/Candied Yams and Mac & Cheese, Oko Punch, Margarita, & Iced Tea. My only negative was a personal one. As we weren't expecting that atmosphere, it was louder than we would have preferred for such a situation. Gratuity was auto added to the bill.

Happy Yourself!!! Love everything here! The Staff, Food Drinks and Ambiance are amazing!!!!
This newly opened restaurant in West Orange is awesome. The ambiance is welcoming, family like. Plenty of seating and the lighting was perfect. The Owner/Chef Cliff is an amazing person. You can tell his passion for the establishment by having a five minute conversation with him. The menus are great; so much goodness to choose from. I got the Chicken, Basa and Waffles. Basa (which are I think Swai fish) ). It was so crispy and the fish was just flavorful. The wings were so crispy and flavorful and that powered sugar took them to another level. I must this some of the best I've had in a long time. The waffles were buttery, soft and for me didn't require any syrup. But that syrup took it up another notch, even dipped the Basa in it and OMG. The French Toast was amazing and I don't eat it normally, but here they got it right. The potatoes well cooked and seasoned. Instead of turkey bacon, I got some Suya Steak instead and OMG. The best steak and eggs combination I've had in a long time. The eggs were soft, cheesy and fluffy. This will be my new go to spot for brunch. Will be back for dinner. Shout out to Sam, she did an amazing job.
