American surprised to find good African food abroad. I can barely find it in the states. So I was very happy when I learned about this place. Everything was well seasoned and authentic to African cuisine. 10 out of 10 for me.

I went to Simbaz for lunch with my wife on the first day of Kwanzaa. The food takes a while to be fried because it is made from scratch and immediately after the customer orders. Since it was the end of the year, there weren't many people in the establishment. The food is very tasty. And the service is great. Simbaz has walls decorated with paintings and artistic drawings. I recommend Simbaz to anyone who likes to discover and try typical dishes from other countries.

I ordered a vegan dish and it came undercooked, without salt, without seasoning... Horrible.

The service is very good. The atmosphere is also pleasant and calm.nnI ordered tilapia, and the fish was great. But I thought the side dish was small (7 banana slices?).nThe drink was also weak and too sweet.nThe menu is a little confusing!

An immersive experience in African cuisine.nI had a black-eyed pea dumpling as a starter and a yellow yam fufu with okra and meat soup as a main course. Very good!nMy vegetarian friend had the fufu with mushroom and spinach soup and it was divine!nFor those who have read Chimamanda's Purple Hibiscus, you have to go there to try the famous fufu!nKevin is a super nice guy!nYou eat with your hands, it's really sensational!nTry the mango and mint juice, it's become my favorite.nnI'll be back

I recommend Simbaz. Delicious food (you have to try the Plantain Chips) and great service.nFellow vegetarians, Obudu Montains is delicious!

The service was excellent! Both the waiter and the chef, who came to the table to talk to us, were super attentive. As for the food, the seasoning is very tasty, very different from anything we are used to. As a starter, I highly recommend the pastelzinho with a wonderful tomato sauce! Without a doubt, one of the best I have ever tried. As for the dish itself, I was able to try the swallow, a dish that is eaten with your hands, and it was wonderful! I ordered the vegetarian option, with spinach and mushrooms, and it is definitely an experience I will want to have again! I really recommend trying this restaurant!

Very tasty food, the best banana chips I've ever had in my life. Excellent service! The only thing they could do is take a little more care of the environment.

Wonderful. Very friendly staff and 10/10 food! Come more often to support the owners. During the week it's empty. Whether it's for a drink at night, it's worth it.
