I come here to eat every week for potato greens but man I think I got a bad batch this time it smelt of a little I tasted it just to see in it tasted old like it was sitting out or something got in the mix of the potato greens it didn’t taste good at all I was so upset woke up with a bad stomach ache food poisoning on the toilet all day ? I’m so hurt but I will never come back because that was bad in $20 alot to spend on bad taste food just to throw it away. This never happen before in I been coming here for a while so I don’t know what happen maybe something got in it on accident or maybe it was old but that’s not ok

They claim their sausage samosas are Kenyan, but they definitely are not. The sausages tasted stale and undercooked, as if they were old or had been sitting out too long. The samosas are not made in the authentic Kenyan style—the outer crust is too thick and there’s very little beef inside, so you’re not really getting what you paid for. CUSTOMER SERVICE: The lady at the cashier with the long braids was extremely rude and had a terrible attitude. She clearly lacks basic customer service skills. No one is forcing her to be there, so she should act like she wants customers to return.
I'm giving this place 3 stars for two reasons. First, it took 45 minutes to receive my order, which, as you can see from the photo, shouldn't have taken that long. Second, I had to go back inside to get utensils for my to-go order. The young man working the counter completely ignored me when I returned; I said "excuse me, sir" three times before a server finally brought the utensils. The food is decent, but time is something I can't afford to waste. I recommend placing your order before you arrive.
I will never order from this restaurant again. My son ordered food from here and received the wrong order through DoorDash, which led him to the Emergency Room due to an allergic reaction. I called to inform the restaurant about the situation, and the owner was upset with me instead. I made it clear that I was the one who had every right to be upset. I also tried to get a refund from DoorDash, but the restaurant declined it. Thankfully, my son is okay now. Book a table now
A purely African based bar.. DJ was good at least, but watching fights break out in a bar is never a good experience... Well if you want to dance to afrobeats from all countries in Africa I can say try them out...Weekend parties had a nice mix of ladies and guys and VIP section, no Vap free area, and might get overcrowded at times..
Jambo is one of the top places for West African cuisine in the Northwest Metro area. I’ve tried their cassava leaf jollof rice, and it's absolutely delicious. They also offer some nightlife options that are definitely worth checking out.
It costs $20 each to get in, but there’s nowhere to sit. It would be much better if they had real bartenders making drinks. The hookah was awful. I’m only giving 2 stars because of the DJ; everything else definitely needs improvement.
The dirty rice was horrible and the fish as cooked fine but no meat ...over priced for nun and will never try it again... SMH SMH very surprised used to be ok on Shingle Creek parkway in the shopping center but this was a disgrace Book a table now
This is possibly the worst cassava leaf soup I've ever tasted! It was completely unseasoned. The rice tasted like instant rice! I won’t be coming back.
Food is great and authentic! Service is a hot or miss but the food makes up for it!

"Excellent and prompt service. We were seated quickly, placed our order, and received our food almost immediately. It did get crowded around 9:30 PM. Overall, the food was tasty, but I wasn't a fan of the dry rub as it lacked sufficient seasoning. Despite that, it was a good experience overall."
